Open the door underneath the table and open the gasket on top of the propane tank (twist counterclockwise). Then follow the posted instructions on the lighter dial. You should have a small amount of yellow flame as it burns. Please refrain from turning the gas up too high.

FYI: The property is divided into two parcels separated by an 8 foot privacy fence. The main house and backyard are all for your private enjoyment and entertainment. The smaller lot is another Airbnb. Main house guests do not have permission to access to the side yard. Please also respect the privacy of those guests and do not enter any of the gates that lead to side yard and cottage area. Feel free to message us with any questions or concerns!
Parking: There is free parking on the left side of the driveway. The right side is reserved for Studio 7. Free street parking is allowed in any designated white box between 4 pm and 8 am M-F and anytime on weekends (there are posted placards if you are not sure). If you need to utilize the street parking, please be sure to follow the posted signs, as the city does give out tickets.
Noise: Gainesville is primarily a college town and as such there are many student rentals in the area. During football season and festive holidays, you may hear noise from these houses nearby which can go into the late evening hours, especially if you are enjoying the outdoor amenities. From our experience, very little can be heard from inside the home.
Cottage/side yard access: Please respect other guests privacy as they respect yours and do not enter any of the gates that lead to side yard and cottage area. This is a separate STR rental space.
Smoking: No Smoking, smokeless tobacco, or vaping of any kind is allowed inside the home, on the front porch, or the back patio (any covered area).

Hot tub: The hot tub is no longer available for guest use.
Additional Overnight Guests: Any guests in the home remaining after 11pm not listed in the original reservation will be considered as additional overnight guests. Each additional overnight guest will result in a $100 per person per night upcharge.
Lights and Recycling: To help us do our part for the environment please turn off all lights when no guests are occupying the home. Also please utilize the recycle bins for the appropriate trash. Blue for glass bottles and plastic. Orange for paper and cardboard (no pizza boxes).
Security Camera Disclosure: We do utilize a Ring camera doorbell at the front door and four Ring security cameras for perimeter surveillance to ensure the safety of the property, our guests, and ourselves. All cameras and the ring doorbell record video and audio when motion is detected. The camera over the back door to the home does have the hot tub within the coverage area of the device. This is required for insurance purposes. There is an Alexa Show in the kitchen, which has an internal camera, usually used for video calls, that is not accessible remotely. The device has an internal camera cover that can be slide over the lens.

Amazing home so close to UF
my family of 7 and i stayed here and had a truly amazing time! this home is adorable and much larger than it seems from the pictures and exterior. the hosts have thought of every little detail and were available for easy and fast communication. the home is just a few blocks from UF’s campus and the midtown area (short walk). the amenities and indoor spaces are perfect. would recommend over and over again.

Awesome home and hostesses
Bruce and Kameko were awesome hostesses. The home is immaculate and cozy. It was home away from home. They were very accommodating and checked in on us throughout our stay to ensure everything was up to par and if we needed anything. I highly recommend this home and we plan to stay again when we visit the area again next year if available.

Owner/Thermostat
The property/house is great. The owners seem to be alright also. we had a problem with being locked out of the thermostat(they have a pin code on it) the first night we all roasted. The owners tried to cool the house down but the locked thermostat went right back to its regular schedule after that command. The next day they removed the pin # and we were able to be comfortable. I also messaged to ask if we could extend our checkout to 12pm since we were there for a gator softball game that started at 2pm. , no response at all from the owners. Also, it's kind of creepy with all the echos and ring cameras listening and watching you. The ONLY downside to this place is that you are micromanaged to the 100th degree.

Gainesville Medical Stay
We needed a house in close proximity to UF Health Shands Cardio Vascular Hospital and this was perfect for our needs.
My husband was having surgery and our adult children were coming to be with us.

Beautiful house near UF campus
We were in town for a week moving our daughter into her new apartment. This house was amazing and so much better than staying in a cramped hotel. Nicely decorated, very clean, huge backyard and even had a cute coffee bar! The owners were very attentive and quick to respond. We look forward to staying there again in the future.

UF Visit
We selected 7th Heaven as our "home base" to drop off our son at UF. The property is very well located, close to the campus but still in a quiet, safe and relaxing area. This is a beautiful property, very well kept, with numerous amenities, great decoration, lots of electronics and a large yard. The property is perfect for families and groups. The owners are responsive, quick to answer any queries and clearly take care of the property and their guests; the coffee bar is a great touch! We will return and highly recommend.
