Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Bradford County

We had a great time at Brianna's lakehouse. This was one of the cleanest and most comfortable Airbnbs I've stayed in. Thank you, Brianna, for sharing your home with us!

This house was a great choice for us, which included our dogs! The huge fenced in yard was awesome and the house was in close proximity to Ginnie Springs which is a must see. Absolutely stunning water.

Another way of giving directions for finding the home for the first time: When you turn left as soon as you come through the gate, keep going on that road until you see a street sign that says Riverside Circle. Make a left and then it’s the first house on your right. I've stayed in a good number of Airbnb's & this one is the best one I've been to. The house is simply beautiful & the decorations are tasteful. The privacy is divine. The grounds large. Good outdoor chairs, including for a couple of kids. Shade on the dock in the afternoon. Lake can be a brown tea like color (from tannins) & murky. Stairs might make your calves scream. We lowered our bags down with a rope. Great to have outdoor sink on balcony. Great to have screened in eating spot. Beds & furniture better than average rental. Host is a super host for a reason.

This place is absolutely amazing. It is the best rental property that we have ever stayed in. The owners are spot on! The house is perfect, the grounds and lake are beautiful, and it really lacked nothing. We are already planning a trip back in the cooler months to enjoy the fire pit and hot tub.

Our family enjoyed staying at Susan’s cottage. It is surrounded by lots of nature ( trees, birds, deer, and armadillo). The cottage itself was clean and cozy. Susan allowed us to bring our dog and rabbit which helped us out tremendously. She shared information on the history of Old Bellamy road ( the oldest road still in existence in America) and its surrounding properties which was really informative. Overall, we really had a fabulous stay and look forward to returning to this special place in the near future. Lots of thanks, Colleen and family

It’s pretty perfect. For the money, this is basically as good as it gets. Love the shoes-off policy; the home feels very clean. Old Florida charming with gorgeous original wood floors. Pictures and description are exactly accurate. The home is well laid out, and the hosts have taken care to make even better use of the square footage (like ample shelving in the bathroom, and several surfaces/laundry baskets in the bedrooms). On premise are a coffee maker for both grounds and pods, a blender, hairdryer, washer/dryer, ice maker, and in-sink filtered water system. Future guests—consider bringing a small extension cord or two if you want to have devices charging bedside. The outlets in the bedrooms are sparse, and the bedside is one a little hard to access, (under the bed). Luckily I travel with an extension cord, but if I didn’t have it I couldn’t have kept my phone or the baby monitor charging next to my side of the bed. We’d love to stay again. It’s a great place.

Our 2-Night Birthday Getaway 🌟 For my son’s 14th birthday, I wanted to do something special—just the five of us, no distractions, just quality time. As a single mom of four, I don’t always get the chance to slow down, but this short getaway gave us exactly that. We stayed two nights at this cozy Airbnb that felt like a home away from home. The kids were excited the moment we pulled up. The space was peaceful, clean, and perfect for making memories—whether it was staying up late fishing in the lake, sitting around the fire pit together, or just lounging and laughing. The birthday boy felt celebrated, and his smile made every effort worth it. Thank you so much for allowing my family and me to stay in your beautiful home.

Reviews of Brian's house all said that it it was very peaceful, private and relaxing with a beautiful view from the deck. Which were all true. My husband and pup are very good at chilling and really enjoyed their down time there. I enjoyed the two seafood lunches at Cedar River Seafood located only a few miles from the house. They have the best gator tail, ever! Thanks, Brian for hosting us!

Beautiful location with easy access to the local springs and University of Florida

We stayed here for a graduation ceremony . The place is centrally located , easy to find , tons of parking spots . Nice private backyard . We had some trouble trying to unlock the door but the host was quick to respond and assist . Would surely recommend this place to friends

Lesley was very accommodating, friendly and helpful if a need presented itself... made extra room for our Boat trailer and two cars and her husband Steve even found a Fuse for our boast when the Bilge Pump went out. The couple made an effort to make certain you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to coming back to say at the 2 bedroom cottage on the water in early Fall. Thanks, Jane

Nice clean cute space, convenient place to stay in Gainesville. Friendly, pleasant host.

We felt right at home here in this charming home. Everything we needed was here plus more. Julia was very responsive & so nice to talk to. I brought my filtered water pitcher & didn't even need it. The water here is fantastic! Our dogs also loved being able to run & play in the back. The porch & pool area are very relaxing. We would definitely return.

The accommodations were clean and comfortable. We loved the location. The restaurants in the square were really good and there was live music on Saturday. Great experience for my family.

We had great time at Ivy's property. The place is wonderful. Super clean. Lake, fishing deck, fire pit, grill, balcony, everything was perfect. The house is loaded with extra items such as coffee machine and other essentials. Owners very professional, just the way it should be. Highly recomended!

Great Airbnb, quiet neighbourhood, Noah was very helpful! Would book again in the near future!

Definitely a great location for enjoying the outdoors! Thanks again!!

Great stay! Loved the comfy beds & lots of pillow options! Super clean. Thanks again for the great stay!

Jack’s place was the perfect place to stay while I was visiting friends in the area. It was clean and well organized. He was very responsive host and checked in to make sure I had everything I needed during my stay.

Always a pleasure staying at your property! The trampoline and other improvements were a really nice surprise! Your place is beautiful, just a gem! we always love staying there!

We had an amazing stay at this cozy 200 sq. ft. shed-turned-retreat near the Santa Fe River. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking to unplug and unwind in nature. The space is small but beautifully designed, and the outdoor setup really makes it special. We loved the outdoor shower and bathtub—there’s something magical about bathing under the trees! The hammocks were a favorite for morning coffee and lazy afternoon naps. Best of all, the river is just a short walk away, and we spent hours paddleboarding and floating in the peaceful water. It truly felt like our own little slice of paradise. Highly recommend for couples or solo travelers looking for a peaceful, off-the-grid escape.

A quiet place surrounded by nature, yet still close to Gainsville. Very peaceful and relaxing.

My husband and I enjoyed nice and relaxing weekend. The quiet beautiful nature view was so relaxing and away from the sound of traffic and city life. Hearing nature wake up, while having a cup of coffee on the porch was amazing. The house was super clean!

Amazingly peaceful stay on a beautiful property near the creek. Felt very cozy and secluded. Surrounded by nature, we saw a turkey, fireflies, and bunnies while there. Loved the hot tub, pool and hammocks. Host was very responsive and house was very clean. Definitely would stay again!
