Absolutely perfect! Beautiful spot, quiet, well maintained. Easy drive to UGA campus. Loved all the thoughtful touches in the cabin. There were even fresh cut flowers. We will stay again for sure!

Charming cottage in ideal, peaceful setting. The cottage is full of quality furniture, decor and accessories. We will definitely be staying here every time we are in the area. Beautiful surroundings. Safe and QUIET. Host is available with quick responses and helpful info. Definitely a great find on VRBO!!

We absolutely loved our stay at the charming country guest house! It was so cute and perfect place to stay for my daughter’s parents weekend at UGA! We were able to get Ubers quickly! It was so nice to stay here versus a hotel in Athens! We will definitely come again!

This is a sweet place to stay out of the hustle and bustle of Athens during a busy weekend. The drive gets to be a little long if you’re going back and forth to campus a lot.

This cabin is as advertised! It was quiet, clean, and convenient. We had a rental car so transportation was not an issue, however we did check and Uber/Lyft would come pick us up. I recommend this property. Thanks owners for letting us use your space!

When I posted a video of this VRBO cottage on my Facebook page, I declared it elegant and comfortable. It is just as impressive in person as it is in the photographs, and it was absolutely immaculate.This is an ideal destination for a couples' getaway, an author's retreat, or a grandmother heading to a concert in Atlanta--as I was!Basic toiletries, snacks, and COFFEE (my ONE essential in any lodging!) were provided. I also appreciated having the trash receptacle located on the front porch, not even noticeable until I looked for it--but SO handy when I was leaving.My only motivation in NOT raving about this beautiful place is I don't want it booked the next time I visit Athens. (It was a 15 minute drive to my son's home there, easily navigable!)

Such a relief from the tired hotel rooms in Athens. This was an easy drive into town for our visit. We loved the adorable modern farmhouse look. Location and parking were well marked, and the path was nicely lit. Owner has thoughtfully appointed the house with basic needs and extras. Thank you!
