This home was PERFECT!

This home was perfect for our family's stay in Athens. The interior layout is spacious and very thoughtfully appointed, with both beautiful and comfortable furnishings. The large kitchen has tons of counter space. It's perfect for both the chef and others to gather. The upstairs bedrooms are comfortable and quiet. The house is set back from the street on a very private lot with a fenced backyard, where our dog could run.

Douglas home was nothing short from amazing! My family of 9 drove 14 hours and was pleased with the room and beds were very comfy. The house was very spacious we didn’t feel stacked on top of one another but yet the family rooms and the basement made us all feel together. Our best part was the patio we played cards and had drinks. The creek and the woods behind the home gave us a nature feel and a privacy vibe to spend the alone time together. The home was just 6 mins away from everything we needed. Groceries, gas, and etc. The house was clean and very accommodating. I will definitely stay again! 10/10 recommend!

Great place to stay with a big, young group!

We absolutely loved this home! It had a great amount of bedrooms and sleeping areas and was a quick Uber away from downtown/UGA. There was a huge backyard-- and we saw deer! It was the perfect place to spend a long weekend :) Very clean and spacious

This cozy house was a tranquil space to come home to after a hectic day at work. The sound of the brook, the screened in porch and the bay window. If I come back for work again, this will be the first call I make!

We immediately felt comfortable at this property. When we arrived there was a herd of deer in the side yard and we loved watching them in the mornings and evenings. This home had plenty of sitting areas and would nicely accommodate families with different ages. It had everything we needed for our family to spend Thanksgiving together. The heated toilet seats were always a nice addition!

PERFECTION!

This place was perfect. My short stay included myself and my 3 daughters. There was plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and also several comfortable places for us to congregate. Every where we looked we discovered something visually interesting between both the architecture and the artwork. We loved that this space felt more like coming home versus being just a crash pad. I'm looking foreword to booking again when family comes to visit.

Parent’s Weekend

What a great place to stay with friends while visiting UGA for our daughter’s sorority Parent’s Weekend! The house was perfect to share with friends, the screened in porch was a great place to catch up on some work and the kitchen was great for preparing dishes for the weekend. Our daughter’s favorite spot was the window seat in the front of the house where she napped in the sunshine. We will definitely consider David’s place for a future visit.

Graduation celebration

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home. We were in town for my daughter's graduation from the University of Georgia, and it was so nice to have a home to hang out in rather than being in hotel rooms. We were comfortable and able to spread out. Also, it is far enough out in the country to be quiet and away from the busyness of Athens, but you can be downtown in 15 minutes. Douglas was easy to get a hold of and quick to answer any questions. He is an excellent host, and I would highly recommend his home to other friends and family.
