About this property

The Big Chill – 4BR 2.5BA, Sleeps 10, Auburn Retreat Near Downtown & Campus

  • Welcome to The Big Chill, your mid-century modern retreat just a mile from Toomer’s Corner. Built in 1961 and lovingly refreshed, this colorful Auburn home has tons of vintage character, delivered with all the modern comforts you expect.

    Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and two living rooms—one bright and open, the other cozy and relaxed. The retro Big Chill fridge, bold art, and floor-to-ceiling windows set the tone for a space full of personality and light.

    Step outside to unwind on the screened porch, gather around the fire pit, or enjoy dinner under the orange canopy where the grill and outdoor dining area sit. A whimsical geo dome and lush trees add to the charm.

    Whether you’re in town for a game, a getaway, or just some Auburn sunshine, The Big Chill offers color, comfort, and character in one unforgettable stay.

The Big Chill in Auburn was the cleanest, cutest, funkiest most comfortable place I have rented in a long time! The beds were comfortable, the space was enough for 5 adults and 3 kids under the age of 6, and the decor was so fun! My family will be back!
