I can’t recommend this home

We arrived after a long travel day to a dirty home. Leftover plate of food still sitting in the microwave. Dust on ceiling fans. I could go on but I won’t. I just cannot recommend this ‘meadow retreat’ and by the way there is no meadow. Yes the owner complied and the following day his wife came back to clean the home not a professional.

Christmas

Was a beautiful place to spend Christmas. The kids were even impressed. They had a lot of fun. Our family came from Clermont and even did Christmas Eve with us. The Maids were the best, they went above and beyond to help me maintain with 5 children 3 under 3.

We enjoyed our stay. Great spot for a friends getaway, whether a game or event going on in Gainsville. Easy ride to downtown. Demetreious was great at communicating with us regarding any questions I had. We appreciated his hospitality.
