The home was perfect for our large extended family to use while we came up to attend GymDogs and a basketball game. Location was safe and convenient. Home was comfortable with enough space to be together but also enough space to sleep. Host reached out to check in on us multiple times. Highly recommend.

This home was PERFECT!

This home was perfect for our family's stay in Athens. The interior layout is spacious and very thoughtfully appointed, with both beautiful and comfortable furnishings. The large kitchen has tons of counter space. It's perfect for both the chef and others to gather. The upstairs bedrooms are comfortable and quiet. The house is set back from the street on a very private lot with a fenced backyard, where our dog could run.

Can't wait to come back

This cozy house was a tranquil space to come home to after a hectic day at work. The sound of the brook, the screened in porch and the bay window. If I come back for work again, this will be the first call I make!

We immediately felt comfortable at this property. When we arrived there was a herd of deer in the side yard and we loved watching them in the mornings and evenings. This home had plenty of sitting areas and would nicely accommodate families with different ages. It had everything we needed for our family to spend Thanksgiving together. The heated toilet seats were always a nice addition!

Everything was set up to help our stay be enjoyable. The fenced back yard was great for our pets. The heated toilet seats a plus. TVs in every room. Plenty of blankets and pillows. The home was very clean. The wild life was wonderful including deer hawk cardinals. We were close to shopping food restaurants. We had a very pkeasant stay!! Thank you.

Clean, comfortable and spacious home with a great host

We stayed at this home when visiting our son at UGA. The home is very comfortable with lots of space, and is close to grocery stores and a handful of fast food and sit down restaurants. The 15-20 minute drive to UGA was easy enough, although a little far to go back and forth multiple times a day. Douglas was very responsive to questions and seemed genuinely interested in ensuring that we had a great stay. We would stay here again on a future trip.

I loved the house. It is very large, and can hold a lot of people. The kitchen is very large. There are two living rooms on the main floor, which would be nice if you have a lot of people staying in the home. There is a very large fenced in back yard if you have a dog, it would be a great place to stay. If I stay there again, I'd definitely take my dog. There is a park, that has a dog park, 1.5 miles from the home, and there are sidewalks all the way to it. I know this because I am a runner and I ran down to the park each day. There are also some trails at the park that were nice to run on as well. I also noticed a very nice tennis facility nearby. The fire pit is nice, plan to bring firewood. I was not able to easily find firewood around town, so plan ahead. This house was a great find!

PERFECTION!

This place was perfect. My short stay included myself and my 3 daughters. There was plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and also several comfortable places for us to congregate. Every where we looked we discovered something visually interesting between both the architecture and the artwork. We loved that this space felt more like coming home versus being just a crash pad. I'm looking foreword to booking again when family comes to visit.

The house has tons of space along with all the amenities you need. There were numerous sleeping options with plenty of blankets and pillows. Douglas was very quick to reply to any questions we had.

Graduation celebration

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home. We were in town for my daughter's graduation from the University of Georgia, and it was so nice to have a home to hang out in rather than being in hotel rooms. We were comfortable and able to spread out. Also, it is far enough out in the country to be quiet and away from the busyness of Athens, but you can be downtown in 15 minutes. Douglas was easy to get a hold of and quick to answer any questions. He is an excellent host, and I would highly recommend his home to other friends and family.

Thanks Doug!

Couldn’t have asked for a better home or host! Doug was a 5 star host from booking through checkout. In fact, he even went out of his way to drop off jumper cables for my rental car’s dead battery. That’s going above and beyond. The house itself was just perfect for what my group of friends needed. Spacious, clean, and cozy. The drive into DT Athens wasn’t bad at all. Ubers were always available within 10 minutes too. The setting was perfect for a Deep South experience, nestled in the woods with a running creek to enjoy your morning coffee to. Thanks again Doug.

My Home away from home

I had the honor and pleasure of staying here for the last four months for work. It was such an amazing place to come "home" to after a long, hard day. You can hear the brook 24 hours a day, especially from the screened porch off the kitchen. Watch the dear eating from the bay window in the front. It is pure magic. Doug was an amazing host who addressed any any all my needs. He was reachable and kind and attentive. The area was peaceful and still close to town, best of both worlds. I could go on for days. Don't stay here, I'm afraid the house will be booked for the next time I'm in town. 10/10. Thanks Doug!
