The yellow house was extremely peaceful and accommodating. The communication was excellent. It is the greatest escape for a family.
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
We enjoyed our stay at the Yellow House! It was comfortable and well appointed, with plenty of room for three adults. We spent a lot of time on the screened porch, enjoying the birds and wildlife. The kitchen had all the basics, and the bathrooms were well stocked. What I really want to rave about is the owner and the manager. As our stay approached, we were made aware of a nearby wildfire by family in the area. When I reached out, the owner called neighbors in the community and assured me that air quality was good and there was no threat. Even with that information I was offered no penalty cancellation even though the cancellation date had passed. We happily kept our reservation and had an outstanding stay. I truly appreciate a host who puts the ease and comfort of her guests above all else. I want to thank the manager. I had to call Terri because I had lost the email with the check-in code. She was so warm and friendly as she got me the information. All in all, this was an outstanding experience and I appreciate all involved.

This home was perfect for our large family—quaint, spacious, and set in a quiet neighborhood. The management team was professional and responsive, and when an unexpected issue arose, it was handled quickly and with great care. Even the owner personally checked in to ensure we were comfortable. Truly outstanding service and hospitality!

Stay was great. They allowed early checkin. The drive took about 25 mins to get to UF graduation events. The place was great and it was peaceful. We liked having the fully stocked kitchen and the great outdoor space.
