Really great house!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this really cool house! It was immaculate and stocked with everything one could possibly need. There was even a welcome basket with snacks and a bottle of Prosecco! We will definitely be booking this home again. The only downfall is the surrounding properties seemed a little shady.

Never Disappoints!!!

This is our fourth stay at this property. Even after trying a few other VRBO properties in Athens, we keep coming back to this one! The owners are a joy to work with, the home is nicely appointed and always clean, the beds are comfortable, and the location is convenient to everything we do in Athens. The fenced backyard is an added bonus when traveling with our dog. We will absolutely continue to book here.
