The house is immaculate it has everything you need for your stay. Plenty of room and so very comforting and welcoming. The landscaping is all so beautifully maintained. You cannot go wrong with this home.
We enjoyed our weekend stay in Melrose. Information about this house was accurate. It was clean, comfortable, quiet and everything worked perfectly. We were in town for a wedding and appreciated having a quiet place to sleep and spend the weekend. We highly recommend this Vrbo home. Thank you Larry.
We escaped to the lake for Memorial Day weekend. This house was great. Incredibly clean, well stocked and had a great grassy yard and dock on the lake. It was the perfect weekend retreat with family and friends. The kids had a blast fishing, swimming, jumping off the dock, and playing in the yard. Great spot! Hope to return.
We stayed at this location, just 30 minutes from University of Florida, to go to the football game. Aside from losing, the home, location and weekend were perfect. Home had everything we needed. Everyone loved visiting on the pier in the evenings.
My husband and I stayed with our four children/teenagers. The home was immaculate and comfortable. Larry was very easy to work with and accommodating. The view of the lake is perfect. The master bedroom and bathroom are luxurious!
The lovely home looked just the way the online photos portrayed. It was extra helpful to have the spacious laundry room and garage available to use. We needed an open-floor plan for family suppers, and this property served that need well.
The host was accessible and easy to communicate with. We would choose to stay at this property again.
This property is amazing! The front yard has beautiful herb and flower gardens. The house is very clean, open and updated with a wonderful kitchen and master suite. The large screened in back porch provides great views of the lake. The back deck is great for eating outside and the back yard is very large. The dock was perfect for our boat and for swimming. The access to the big lake is a quick and peaceful cruise.
This was one of the best properties we have rented on VRBO.
Wonderful stay in Melrose! Iâve been booking on VRBO for several years. I have stayed at many locations from Florida to Kentucky and this listing was the absolute cleanest rental yet. Great quiet location on beautiful Santa Fe Lake. Husband and I went for a long anniversary weekend to âget away from it allâ neighborhood was quiet, home was well stocked , grill was perfect for a quiet anniversary dinner and the dock was just a bonus, we even got a perfect little orange off the orange tree in the back yard and it was delicious ! Check in and check out was seamless ! I highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a little peace from hustle and bustle of life . I promise if youâre looking for a clean rental take it from a clean freak this is the one ! look no further! Great job! Will definitely rent again!
We had a wonderful stay and we are looking forward to returning next summer and we are going to try to stay for a few long weekends as well. The house was very clean and perfectly maintained. The kitchen contained everything needed to create great meals. There were plenty of pots pans and utensils and we enjoyed eating our meals while sitting on the patio enjoying the lake view. We brought my 20 foot center console fishing boat and there was plenty of room to tie it off on the dock at the rear of the property and the boat ramp was less than 5- minutes away via our boat and 3- minutes via our truck. We left the boat in the water all week and we pulled the kids on an inflatable water tubes all week long and also went fishing nearly every evening. Truly a great family getaway! Thanks for sharing your wonderful property!
Have stayed twice for gator football long weekend. Can grille/cook on premises or go to a few nearby restaurants. Host is very accomodating. Highly recommend. Would stay again.
Property was great and the lake was better than we expected, wish we brought swim suits. Plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the view. Good for three couples as long as twin beds are good for one of them. Drive into Gainesville isnât bad at all, straight shot.
