Perfect!

Such a cute, clean, and welcoming place! It was so well appointed and perfect for our weekend trip to visit our son at UGA. All of the extra touches the owners put into it really make it special. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Hidden Creek/Watkinsville

Outstanding stay at this charming duplex. Extremely clean and quiet atmosphere. Hosts, Rick and Joan, were very accommodating and friendly. Close to UGA for a weekend of Georgia football. We highly recommend this place for others to book.

Perfect retreat and great hosts

A busy graduation week in Athens is a perfect pairing with this quiet country cottage. We were impressed with how well supplied and well decorated the place is. Every comfort is considered. One of the nicest VRBO stays in quite awhile. Literally a breath of fresh air and sunshine!

Quiet Oasis

I stayed for two nights in this great duplex. It is well appointed, clean, clearly the hosts gave attention to details that make you feel at home. The hosts were so welcoming; we really enjoyed the fresh eggs and honey. It was an easy drive to UGA so I could easily visit my son. Highly recommend and I’m looking forward to returning.

Upscale in the Country

We were thrilled when we stepped into this charming apartment. Everything was top notch. The owner communication was prompt, helpful and accommodating. The modern kitchen, the spotless bathroom, the comfortable bed. All in a sweet country setting. We loved the private screened porch. Don’t hesitate to book this gem! We’ll be back!

So cute!

What a great place to stay while visiting our daughter at UGA! The University/downtown Athens was approximately 10 minutes away. Super cute decor and stocked with all the comforts of home. Chickens in the backyard. Screened in porch to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Our hosts were fantastic at communicating quickly. Farm fresh eggs in the fridge, snacks, cold water bottles and honey from their hives upon arrival. Everything was very clean, the sleep number bed and pillows were amazing, towels were plush and plentiful. Appreciate you!
