We’re so thankful you enjoyed your stay. You and your family were perfect guests and are welcome back anytime. Thank you for taking such good care of the home. Hardly looks like anyone stayed here.
Property was exactly as described and had everything we needed for our stay. It's conveniently located to shopping and restaurants. Communicating with the host was easy and they replied expeditiously. 10/10 would stay again.

Thank you, Lori! You and your family were a pleasure to host. All house rules were respected and the house was left super clean. You are always welcome!
Such a great property!! Everything was exactly as pictured, super comfortable and really clean. It was a perfect place to stay for 4 people (and could have been more). Super quiet location, but still only about 10-15 minutes from downtown Athens.Kitchen area had everything you could need. The little things done by the host create such a welcoming environment - having coffee at the coffee station, mini shampoo/conditioner in the showers, snacks and water, the wifi connection information right at the front door...All GREATLY appreciated.We really loved this place and would stay again if we were coming back to Athens.
