The lodge and grounds were so beautiful and the hosts were amazing! I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a nice place to relax, unwind and spend time with your family. It’s also set up for hosting a large crowd, very spacious, commercial kitchen, seating inside and outside. We enjoyed sitting on the porch admiring the sunset and lake.
The house was decorated so beautifully for Christmas.

Our four generations enjoyed our time at the lodge. The owners were quick to help us when we locked ourselves out of a bedroom. We brought kayaks, the teens and pre-teens spent most of their time on the lake. Our party of 11 had plenty of room inside and outside.

Peaceful Weekend Stay

The Lodge and property were both very clean and beautifully decorated for Christmas. The open concept of the lodge fit our family of 12 perfectly. Our main goal was to visit Calloway Gardens and this lodge is only 5 minutes away from there so very conveniently located. The owners stopped by to help us light the fireplace and were very helpful with restaurant recommendations. I would highly recommend this place for anyone traveling with a large group and/or anyone looking for a peaceful place to stay!

We had a great time at this property! We really enjoyed spending time on the pond and walking through the horse pastures. The host was very quick to respond and help with whatever we needed. The beds were comfortable and we were able to get to Callaway Gardens quickly from here. Some minor downsides were:several roaches around, the porch had a strong mold smell, the ovens didn’t work properly, and we were charged extra money for our 7th guest, even though the property can fit many more. Overall, though, we had a great time and would stay here again!

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Oct 2025
The price is for 6 guests and any additional people are added as additional guests. We feel it is not fair to charge full price for smaller groups. Hope that explains why price changes with additional guests. The oven is a gas oven so if you need us to come adjust it we are always available to come relight it, or adjust or repair anything while guests are here. Unfortunately, in a cabin it is not sealed from the world and bugs can enter in. We clean and wipe it down before and after every guest but while you are there elements of nature on a farm are possible. But sounds like you had a great time and enjoyed your stay.

Amazing Views

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend it to anyone who wants a restful getaway with stunning views. The owners were very responsive to our questions or to help us when issues arose (such as accidentally setting off the smoke alarm). We traveled with 3 adults, 3 kids, and 2 dogs, and everyone was comfortable and had plenty to do. Our kids asked if we could just live there! Go ahead and book your stay. You won't regret it.
