Outstanding! The host and the property are both exceptional. She is friendly and very responsive. Her home is exceptional, comfortable and well-maintained. With charming brick and hardwood floors, the home offers comfortable furniture and upgraded linens and a well-equipped kitchen. You will be very happy in this quaint home.

We really enjoyed our stay here! It’s a cute, remodeled older home that still has that cozy, homey feel, but with all the updates you want.The location was perfect for us because Valdosta is our hometown and all of our kids are still there. It was so nice being able to have everyone come over and spend some time together. The backyard was probably one of our favorite things — plenty of room for outdoor games, sitting around visiting, and just enjoying some good family time.And the fact that we could bring Nanuk with us was a HUGE plus! Anyone who travels with a big dog knows how hard it can be to find a place that is both comfortable and dog-friendly. Being able to have him along made this stay even better.We would absolutely stay here again. It was comfortable, convenient, family-friendly, and most importantly, Nanuk was welcome! You just can’t beat being able to come back home, have your family together, and have your four-legged family member there too.

This was our 4th time staying here. We always return when we are traveling between Central Florida and Atlanta to break up our trip, give our dogs a break, and add a nice quiet time to our vacation. It is always impeccably clean and is a really nice and inviting home to visit. The neighborhood is peaceful and the hosts are so easy to work with that even when I tell my wife I want to power through, she insists we stay because it always adds a great and quiest night to unwind after family visits.

About the host

Hosted by MARY CANGELOSI

Host profile image
We have 5 STR properties. They are located at the beach in St. Augustine, FL, mountains of NC, and in our hometown of Valdosta, GA. We enjoy hosting and our guests each have a unique purpose for choosing each destination. We strive to make their getaway as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Why they chose this property

There was a distinct need for a smaller, yet very comfortable, location close to the hospital, college, and Airforce base. We fell in love with this property at first sight. Built in the 1940s, the house holds a certain charm because of its age, but has been fully updated to make it clean and comfortable for our guests. The yard is wonderful, especially in the spring and summer. The surrounding neighborhood is very peaceful and safe.
We put in some unique upgrades, such as the espresso coffee maker, to attract those small groups that may be travelling for work, a special event, or to visit family. For those travelling from Florida to Atlanta, this location makes a great stopping point especially if travelling with pets. There is a minimal pet fee when booking with pets.

What makes this property unique

The craftsman style of this home and the large fenced in back yard with a firepit and propane grill makes this property feel like home. There are so many unique characteristics such as the brick floors in the sunroom and kitchen.
