The Peach House was everything and more. Jennifer was a wonderful hostess and very receptive to any questions we had. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed was provided. She left coffee which was a great surprise since we were in need of a cup after our early morning flight. We would stay here again.

The Peach House Gainesville

This is the perfect place to stay for 2-4 people when visiting Gainesville. The Peach House is in an older neighborhood, but it’s very clean and modern - and in walking distance to downtown (about a mile). Communication with the host was excellent. We’ll definitely stay here again!

The overall experience was excellent. Very clean and well appointed. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable. Close to shopping and excellent restaurants as well. The location to Shands Heart and Vascular Hospital was very convenient. Jennifer was very prompt with communication. I had to extend my reservation and she made the process very easy.

Felt right at home

We stayed at the “Peach house” for the gator FB opening game with another couple. Our stay was fantastic. We each had our own separate bedroom and bathroom, yet so much nicer than staying in a hotel. The house was clean and updated and Jennifer was great to work with. We will definitely stay again in the future.
