Beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing. We had a great time going for walks, seeing all of the deer, and relaxing on the front porch. The location was so convenient to everything as well.

Perfect Weekend Stay

The cabin was exactly as pictured and great for our weekend stay in Athens. We will absolutely stay here again if in the area. The cabin was clean, well furnished, has a comfortable bed, and in a good location. The owner communicated quickly, and check in/out were seamless. We were very pleased with this rental.

Beautiful Blue Moon

We really enjoyed this stay. The cabin was clean and neat. Our teen enjoyed the loft. The most amazing part was seeing the deer every morning.

What a wonderful little oasis! So cozy and nice. Scott was incredibly responsive and helpful. My daughter and I enjoyed relaxing on the deck, walking around beautiful area and feeling like we were away from it all even though only 15 minutes from everything we needed in Athens. Will definitely return. Appreciated Scott allowed a later check out to accommodate a meeting I had as well.

Great little unit

I say little but it was a perfect size for my husband and I as we visited the area for a wedding. Centrally located to all our wedding activities and a picturesque private area. Highly recommend.

Blue Moon Bungalow was filthy. Our first impression was the filthy sliding glass doors. As we walked into the living room, we immediately noticed the caked-on filth on the ceiling fan in the living area. The stinky smell was so bad (smell like dog), we had to open a window and leave the sliding glass doors open for a while to air it out. If the property had been cleaned property, it would have smelled like cleaning products, not stink like a dog. As I looked down, I noticed the filthy floors that had clearly not been vacuumed in a while, much less cleaned. The shower door appeared to have not even been wiped down since the last use. There was black mold on the concrete grout plus soap and mold buildup in the shower. Even a simple cleaning of the shower would have reduced and/or prevented this. The vacuum cleaners next to the washer and dryer in the bathroom were filthy covered in dirt and dust. This place was nasty. We left the next day and did not complete our stay. I have plenty of pictures to share wherever and with whomever I can.
