Cute cozy little place to stay for the night while we visited Athens. Had all starter items you need. Great location, away from the large city, yet close enough for a 15 minute drive into town.

Property was great and served our purpose. My only request would be to add blinds or curtains on windows in the entryway/sunroom for privacy for anyone who might sleep in that room. Thank you!

The whole vibe of the place was very relaxing. It is just a cute house out in the country. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed have a fire in the firepit one night. We stayed at the property during a UGA game weekend. Location is good for this purpose, if you want to be away from Athens after the game is over.

We loved staying there! Very cozy for our family. One small suggestion would be to get some blinds or shades for the windows. It’s very bright in the front room. Other than that , we were very pleased!

May trip

We stayed at this rental while visiting family for a graduation. The rental is very clean and comfortable. I was impressed by how clean and fresh it was. Along woth the quality of the linens and mattresses. Also, communication with the owner was great. When I messaged a question, he responded within a few minutes. We had a wonderful stay.

We loved the stay at this cottage. Great setting - back from road but easy access. We weren't able to bring our dog (this time) but it would have been easy to have her. The only things that would have improved our stay were:1. No pods for Keurig in kitchen. There was loose coffee but no coffee pot. Had to drive 6-7 miles into town the first evening just to get coffee for the next morning.2. Additional toiletries would have been nice. I had limited supply of shampoo, conditioner and lotion. Had to pick up nicer soap when we purchased coffee.I think most VRBO properties have beverages (coffee, tea) and toiletries. I don't think adding these items would cost owner much and would have greatly improved our stay. All in all, now that I know, I would rent again but come better prepared!
