UGA Parents Weekend

This is the most adorable, completely renovated, precious slice of comfort in Athens. I will stay here every time I go if it’s available!! Absolutely great neighborhood, safe, quiet, the owners were fantastic to communicate with prior to my arrival and I appreciated the quick response on GameDay when I had a question. 5 STARS

Beyond Amazing!

Everything was way more than one could have hoped for! As soon as we opened the door and walked in it felt like we were at home, not away in a rental property. The hosts have put so much effort into providing an exceptionally beautiful, warm, cozy, perfect place to live in, not just visit, and communication was immediate with zero delay. This place definitely allowed our trip to be everything it deserved to be to celebrate a UGA Graduate as a family, being in a HOME away from HOME! Thank you so much for providing this sweet and precious slice of Heaven which allowed us the opportunity to embrace our stay and the accomplishments of our UGA Graduate! GO DAWGS!
