About this property

Recently renovated home in a quiet wooded setting overlooking a lovely creek.

A tranquil and recently renovated retreat. Only 18 minutes from downtown Athens, but feels world’s away. Relax on the 20’ x 20’ screened porch and enjoy the sound of the creek’s water flowing over the shoals. Acres of forest for trail walks. A perfect spot for a UGA game weekend, parent’s weekend or graduation.

Sofa can be made up as an additional queen sized bed.

We loved the creek. The screened in porch and listening to the creek was so zen. Yes the place is Feng shui approved. We didn’t want to leave the home.

The house was very clean and updated. The back porch was nice overlooking the stream. We loved sitting out there listening to the water. Very peaceful and serene.

This property was perfect for our family of 4. We had more than enough space with the 3 very comfortable kings beds. The remodel was beautiful, and we ate dinner and breakfast at the house and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. They even have some of the little things like salt & pepper, oil, coffee, sugar, ziploc bags, etc. But I have to say my absolutely favorite place was on the screen porch. The view and sound of the stream was so relaxing. We spent most of our time on the porch and my family didn't want to leave. We would definitely stay here again. The host was very responsive too. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

What an awesome place!

The house is beautiful and the setting is even better. Have your coffee on the deck and listen to the creek. Amazing! I recommend the house highly. It is one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in.

Beautiful escape

Elaine was so easy to work with. She kept in contact with us to make sure our stay was going smoothly. There were no hiccups at all. The home it's beautiful, we spent most of our time on the screened in porch overlooking the river. They didn't miss anything in the renovation. Let's not forget the most comfortable beds ever.
