Great communication with the Host Harley! The place is beautiful and nicely decorated! We loved the velvet comforter and that we ordered one for our bedroom. Will definitely stay there again!
This place was wonderful! It was quiet, clean, and the perfect amount of space for two people. Huge bonus that this is Veteran owned! We love supporting that! Fabulous host - very forthcoming with information, easy check-in and out, and definitely ensured we were comfortable. Highly recommend!!
Beautifully decorated home. More spacious than I imagined and we were able to entertain a few family members for a Turning Blue ceremony. The patio was an ideal hang out spot with a gorgeous view of nature and a variety of birds! Home was exceptionally clean.close to great restaurants and only 25 min drive to Ft Benning. Highly recommend this place.

The property was beautifully decorated, it felt so welcoming. I loved the natural light through the front door & windows, as well as the bedroom rear access to the deck.
Even though surrounding area/neighborhood looks a bit rundown, we felt secure at the property. The people we met during our stay were very nice. There's a little community park with swings right on the corner of the block and a family was having a birthday party on our arrival day.
This property was exactly as listed - beautiful, clean, and in a quiet neighborhood! My husband & I stayed here for my brothers turning blue & graduation ceremony and we really enjoyed the stay! It was 15 minutes away from base. The host was super responsive and checked in on us, and also left some arrival goodies and toothbrushes make up wipes, extra towels in the bathroom which was a really nice touch. The home features a beautiful back porch and a security system that you can arm (this made us feel extra safe). Just remember to unarm it before opening the backdoor, haha. We would absolutely stay here again!!
This was the most adorable house. Loved the way it was decorated. The host was very attentive and made sure I had everything I could possibly need. Definitely would stay again
This cottage was ideal for me, my boyfriend, and our dog for a 5-night stay over Christmas. It is equipped with everything we possibly could have needed, and the back porch was a welcome outdoor space in unseasonably warm December weather. Highly recommend this little gem.
The Host was awesome. Great Communication. The House was VERY close to the river walk which was great because we were there to take pics of our Kayaking friends.
The place was perfect for visiting our daughter at Fort Benning. Even though the front door lock had gone dead you were easily contacted and resolved the issue within minutes. Thank you so much for helping us with our personal issue we had! It was definitely not your responsibility, but helped us out greatly.
