Comfortable and convenient
The cottage was very comfortable, from the bed to the layout and the cozy size of it. I could park right next to the walkway and there were no steps or ramps to deal with. Stuart and Tana were very welcoming and I would love to stay here again sometime.

Beautiful private cottage
It's not clear in the listing but this is a detached cottage with plenty of privacy. The owners were delightful and went out of their way to make sure my needs were met and to offer assistance. I loved the space of five acres of mostly lawn and many squirrels and birds. The entire neighborhood was pasture and beauty with a beautiful horse next door.

Tranquil Cottage
We enjoyed a relaxing and enjoyable 3 month winter getaway in Alachua FL at the Tranquil Cottage hosted by Stuart and Tana who live on the property. It was perfect for my partner, myself and our dog as we enjoy state parks and bike trails. The cottage was immaculate and well stocked and with the owner nearby anything we needed was quickly taken care of. We would highly recommend the cottage for a stay in this area.

Cottage in the country
We enjoyed our three months stay in the cottage. Quiet and peaceful area with easy access to stores and the interstate. Host was always available when we needed anything and quickly responded to our needs. If you're looking for a place to stay that is either short-term or long-term, I recommend this quaint cottage.
