Great place for a large family weekend getaway!
We were in Athens for the weekend while our kids attended a sports camp. Arrived Friday evening and left Sunday morning. This was a great place to host our family. The home had ample bedrooms, linens, and space for all to stay comfortably. Outdoor property was nice however we were so busy didn't have a chance to use it. Great location close to shopping and downtown Athens. Very clean property with all needed amenities. I really appreciated the small touches at this rental that made our stay effortless. Communication from the owners was polite, prompt, and extremely helpful. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

Excellent house for a crowd
We loved staying at this house. It was perfect for a large family ranging in age from 19 to 87. We were there for graduation and it was perfect. We loved the outdoor space. The beds are super comfy and it was spotless. We would love to stay again!!

Family Time for Memorial Service
This was a fantastic home where family could gather to celebrate the life of our mother, grandmother, cousin, and friend. Perfect area to gather outside and enjoy the scenery and each other. The hosts left a beautiful bouquet of flowers for us and graciously allowed me to checkout later when I lost my keys prior to checkout.

Lovely family house in a quiet neighborhood
We booked this home for our trip to athens to visit family. The location was perfect for us because we were looking for something near the west end of town close to our family. The house had all supplies we needed. The beds were comfortable. The layout is great, the master is on one end and the other bedrooms on the other end of the house. The porch is amazing. We loved the outdoor space, it had tons of seating and a fire pit. A family of deer visited each morning and evening. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. We would definitely book again.

This place is the perfect stay for a trip to Athens! Very close proximity to stores, restaurants, and downtown while still having a tranquil, peaceful environment. One morning, we saw a family of deer! Highly recommend this place for family, business trips, and more! The hosts are wonderful with communication, and they go the extra mile in making sure you know the highlights of the area with a welcome booklet in the house! Will definitely stay again!

Family house in Athens
The house was very clean and well maintained. There was plenty of room for our family, 5 bedrooms and plenty of towels. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was good size and was completely stocked and we cooked several meals at the house. We really enjoyed watching the deer on n the backyard every morning. There was plenty of outdoor seating. The host was very responsive to my questions. I would highly recommend if you have a large group and visiting Athens.

The backyard, outdoor area is such a selling point. It has a wooded lot with fire pit and 10 chairs. It also has a high top dining table and sitting area. This is a great place to have a brunch and come back after a busy day in Athens. We really enjoyed our stay here.

If you want a no hassle stay in Athens this is your place. The perfect launching pad and peaceful landing pad for all your game day or graduation adventures. The backyard is simply amazing with a herd of deer marching through twice a day . The house is great and very spacious. Five Stars is not enough . Thanks for a great graduation weekend.

Hidden Gem in Athens
It's a very peaceful property. Everyone loved sitting on the porch in the morning watching the deer. Melanie thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. Including a kitchen with all our needs to host a family party. We had family in from everywhere and everyone enjoyed their stay. It was the perfect place to celebrate our daughters graduation from the University of Georgia's College of Veterinary Medicine. The outside firepit and tables and the screened in porch created such a fun environment. It really is a treasure in Athens.

Football game weekend
My familiy and my brothers family stayed for the weekend to go to the Georgia game. Location was great. There was plenty of room. Loved all the sofas in the den so everyone had a place to sit and hang out. We did not get a chance to use the firepit but it looked great. Would definitely stay here again.
