    Whether you’re cheering on a Gator, celebrating a milestone, or simply escaping for a peaceful getaway, this home offers the space and setting to make it special. Wildlife Notice – Natural Pond Area

    Our pond is part of Florida’s natural ecosystem and is occasionally visited by a small local alligator.

    He is not aggressive and usually stays in or near the water, but for everyone’s safety:
       •   Do not feed the alligator
       •   Do not approach or attempt to touch
       •   Do not throw objects into the pond
       •   No swimming or fishing in the pond
       •   Please supervise children and pets at all times near the water

    During warmer months, he may rest on the edge of the pond to sunbathe.

    This is very common in Florida and completely safe as long as these simple rules are respected.

    We love our peaceful backyard and the wildlife that comes with it — thank you for helping us keep both guests and nature safe. This is a private, serene retreat intended for quiet enjoyment.
    Parties, events, and unregistered guests are not permitted

We could not have asked for a better house for our family to gather for the weekend of our daughter’s wedding. We were lacking for nothing. It was so well stocked and so pristine. My husband and I enjoyed our morning coffee while watching the birds in the pond. Although we did not use the pool, it was beautiful. The pool table was enjoyed even though it was chilly outside. I could think of no reason anyone would not enjoy The Pond House. Thank you for providing it! We will find a reason to stay there in the future.

We stayed in the Pond House Friday and Saturday night for the FL/FSU game. We had three adult couples and two college students. The house was the perfect size for us, plenty of room. We grilled out Friday and Saturday night, grille was great, kitchen is excellent, fully equipped. Check in and check out was easy and communication with the host was seamless. Weather was cold so we used both the gas and the real wood firepits. Brought our own wood. Great backyard and pond. I highly recommend this house and would definitely come back again with my family.

Had a wonderful stay here! The entire house was spotless, and you could tell the owners take great pride in keeping everything clean and comfortable. Each bathroom had thoughtful little touches like Q-tips, razor, toothbrush, ear plugs which made our stay more welcoming. Plenty of paper products were supplied throughout the house, too.The decor was beautiful. The layout was perfect for our family get-together, giving everyone space while feeling connected. We didn't get a chance to enjoy the pool this time, but we would absolutely love to come back and make use of it.The host was responsive and helpful from start to finish. Overall, an excellent stay. We would definitely stay here again.

WOW! Each of us LOVED everything about this gorgeous home! Overall, it was quite spacious, beautifully decorated, full of amenities & anything we could have needed! The 8 of us enjoyed ourselves immensely! This lovely, ample and peacefully situated home made our weekend extra special and enjoyable!! We’re already talking about planning a return trip! The hosts responsiveness to a couple questions we had was immediate, kind and super hospitable! The house was generously stocked with fabulous coffee and pantry supplies, ample bathroom/bedroom supplies including towels, pillows, toiletries, blankets, etc. So much room for everyone, with lots of comfortable gathering areas! The outdoor game/lounge area was a hit w/all of us. It was a great place to chill & talk. Although we didn’t use the pool since it was too chilly that weekend, it’s such a welcoming space. The backyard is beyond gorgeous! There is a lovely pond & we even met the resident mellow little gator we named Gary the gator. There’s a great outdoor fire pit area all surrounded by lush greenery and huge, majestic trees - just gorgeous! The back patio also has a large & useful gas grill that we enjoyed using. Check-in and check-out was seamless. I’d like to make special note of the kindness of our host/owners in accommodating a special request we had on our last day there. So, so grateful!!! THANK YOU for making our trip so special! We look forward to coming back soon.

This house was stunning! It has it all plus a great host! Whether you are here for a gator game, a relaxing family retreat or in our case both, you won’t regret it. The home is stocked with fun, games, and everyday essentials most rentals don’t have, even had more than 1 roll of paper towels and toilet paper. The home was stocked with coffee, Nespresso and even creamer. We had a family party of 8 with plenty of space to split up and have our alone time as well. You can tell this host cares about their property. You will love it and we will definitely be back.

We found this house to be AMAZING! Everything was just as described and all of the rooms are large. It is a very expansive home. Huge pool and game room area. Huge kitchen. Huge dining table (we played cards!).....huge driveway. All so tucked away in a cool, old Gainesville neighborhood. The pond was so pretty, and it even had a friendly small gator in it that would watch from a distance. We rode our bikes to the stadium for game day and thought it was an easy 2.5 mile ride. You won't be disappointed!

Fabulous house right around the corner from 34th St and University Ave., though you would think you're out in the country. The large backyard opens to large pond (hence the name). You can't even see the house next door, and you can barely see the one across the pond, so it very much feels like you have the entire pond to yourself. We saw numerous animals during our stay--a five foot alligator, deer, raccoons, armadillos, frogs, cranes, etc. The house is large, comfortable, and well-stocked. The pool has a lovely, enclosed, converted carport with plenty of sitting space, shade, and a pool table. Overall it was everything we could've hoped for and would love to stay again.

Great place for graduation gathering

House full of amenities: firepit, wood and starter logs included, smores sticks; coffee - keurig/pot/ expresso machines; tvs in all bedrooms (unfortunately not by pool, pool table); pool toys; pool table- loads of fun; even football to play by pool. Do be aware, gators are in the pond. Just do not feed them and understand they are active when its mating season. It was entertaining though. Highly recommend staying here.
