The Blue Burrow (left)-UF/Cozy

Cozy, private, newly renovated duplex in the Bed & Breakfast District. Pet friendly with a $50 fee :) Perfect for traveling professionals! Close to UF campus (1.5 mi), UF stadium (2.3 mi), and area hospitals (1.6 mi from UF Health Shands, 1.8 mi from the VA, 5.7 mi from North FL Regional Medical Center). A quick half mile walk to food and coffee at 4th Ave Food Park and downtown. Enjoy private parking, a fenced in backyard, blackout curtains, and comfy memory foam mattresses.

Fantastic Host and Cozy Stay
The small duplex was comfortable and clean. It was great for a last minute stay in area we knew nothing about. Host had a guide booklet that gave us several places to eat, have coffee, and visit; which we did. Thank you for your simple instructions and beautiful warm welcome booklet. It made our stay feel more personal.

Cozy
Rachel was very professional, sweet, and supremely helpfu through Hurricane Milton's arrival. The house was clean, did not smell weird, was furnished nicely and well stocked (TV with Roku, sleeper couch, table, chairs, leather chair, two bedrooms, patio chairs, laundry option, kitchen, fridge/freezer, toaster, Keurig coffee machine with options, creamer packets, and hot coco packets, toilet paper, paper towels, towels, pillows , etc.) The bed was very comfortable and even our cat adjustable quickly (she usually doesn't). We 10/10 recommend this home and would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!
