Top Ruth B. Kirby Gilchrist Blue Springs State Park Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Gainesville

8/10 Good

"It was great! I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars because everything was perfect except we had some maintenance issues in our room. The staff immediately addressed the issue and gave us another room. Otherwise the facility was clean, the staff friendly and the perks were great. I would stay here again."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Gainesville, FL

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable. Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. Location was perfect."

La Quinta by Wyndham Gainesville

10/10 Excellent

"Both day and night staff were very helpful."

Postcard Cabins Gilchrist Springs, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

8/10 Good

"I am very Grateful for Wesley! He helped me with all of my needs; originally I asked for another bag of wood and was told I would get changed $12 extra for it. But, they took 3 hours to bring it (almost close to 10pm) and I still needed to cook; and because of that, they accommodated me and didn’t charge me for the extra bag. Thank you! MY BIGGEST CONCERN. I stood in the Postcard Cabins in Georgia. They did not enter the property if we weren’t in there. We’re not provided with a do not disturb sign; yet the cabin was entered every time we were out to replenish. I’m grateful for always being replenished but in Georgia; they would leave the stuff on the outside picnic table. Not enter the room. If that is a possibility, then we should be provided with do not disturb signs because I had personal things of mine inside that I would’ve appreciated keeping private. Besides that, thank you postcard cabins! Another one off our check list, and thanks to Wesley we will be trying Alabama next; very informative and patient. Thank you!"

Days Inn by Wyndham Gainesville University I-75
