Sweetwater Branch Inn

Quiet, quaint, nice amenities, staff is professional and friendly. This is a hidden gem. We stayed at Nora Belle’s Cottage. Absolutely beautiful! Large wrap around front porch, two parking spots in front of cottage. Spacious, cozy living room, two huge bedrooms, two and half bathrooms, large kitchen, dining room seats 6 and the pool is basically right outside the back patio of this cottage. Perfect for a family. The grounds are lovely and I found calming. Tasty breakfast. This is a must stay in Gainesville. Just love the history of this property.

The inn was conveniently located to the aquatic center where my daughter swim competition was being held. We were not able to partake in breakfast, as we had to be out before 7 AM each day. The grounds are beautifully manicured, and the landscaping is charming! I also enjoyed the historic booklet information in the room.

Delicious breakfast and beautiful grounds. We had the Tiffany room and my bed was super comfy. The pull down bed was nice too. We loved the balcony and that there was a water machine right outside the room as well as as a Keurig to make coffee and a water heater to make tea. I would stay here again.

An amazing collection of historic buildings. We stayed in Lilly’s Cottage and everything was so cozy. Comfortable King-sized bed in separate bedroom, plenty of blankets and pillows. Pull-out sofa in living room had inflatable mattress on top of sofa-bed one for extra comfort. Full kitchen facilities we didn’t have time to use. Breakfast in the main house was a treat—home cooked and many options. Beautiful B&B compound!

Great location for Downtown Gainesville. The breakfast was great with a number of choices every day. Room was clean and comfortable. All the staff were friendly and the service was excellent.
