Super 8 by Wyndham Gainesville TX

10/10 Excellent

"This is an older property but for the most part is nice, we felt safe. Really like the big fridge it kept our drinks very cold better than most motels. Only thing is all the road construction around the area. If you’re bougie this probably won’t be the place for you."

The Lancaster Manor B&B

10/10 Excellent

"You will not find a better couple to host you and you will not find a place with more character than this mansion. Everything was perfect from the check in to the food. We will be back!"

Budget Host Motel Gainesville

10/10 Excellent

"Every\nThing was excellent, clean room.Good parking , good air conditioner , nice staff"

King Ranch -Stay with Puzzles and Jigsaw the Giraffe

8/10 Good

"we did a monday to friday stay at the king ranch suite, which was an amazing experience. The whole property was also a cool experience with a whole array of animals to interact with. They had a nice outdoor pool which was a 5 minute walk from the room, but not too bad. Staff nice also. No complaints at all, except lack of food/beverages options on the property, you need to basically order uber eats and everything is far away and doesnt taste good. Maybe do some shopping before you come-they have a fridge in the room so you can store essentials to at least have a basic breakfast. Great place to stay for a day, max 2 days; we definitely overdid it with our 5 days and actually left a day early to have a chance to see Dallas before our flight back. Overall I highly recommend them for a short trip you will have a great experience!"

Redbud Falls Ranch | Peaceful Horse Ranch Retreat & Private Horse Experiences

10/10 Excellent

"Melanie is a superb host and the best comminucator out of any VRBO places I've stayed. Her tiny house was an excellent choice. Great escape from traffic, stress, and city life. I would highly recommend."
