We wanted to visit family for Thanksgiving and found a nice place about a mile from my brother’s house, reasonably priced and very nice. The booking and communication was easy and everything was great!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pooh’s Corner. It feels like a quiet, rustic getaway cottage, but it is super close to downtown Athens and all of the activities the city has to offer. Literally the best of both worlds.
We would love to come back and if we ever need to stay in the Athens area again, we hopefully will!
We enjoyed our stay at Pooh’s Corner. Tucked back in a wooded property we felt like we were in our own little hideaway. I understand why the deer love your property!
I recently stayed here with family. The house was as described, but it wasn’t as clean as I had hoped. I did bring this to the host’s attention and he notified the housekeeper. The housekeeper came the next morning and cleaned the home. We did leave because I have a small child and didn’t feel comfortable with the cleanliness of the home. However, I do appreciate the effort from the host to address my concerns.
The location and cleanliness were good. My only problem was with the clean-up directions. The owners wanted the towels washed, dried and put back by 11:00 am checkout. If I had been there a week I can understand. But, two nights … I spent my Sunday morning doing laundry or waiting for it . Too much to ask for a weekend visit.
I can see putting used laundry in washer but washing , drying and putting back , just too much to ask.

The 2 king beds in VRBO description is misleading due to one of them is actually a daybed that folds out using two thin twin mattresses side by side. Location is good, but property needs some attention. Had to break off limbs on overgrown driveway to keep from scratching vehicles. The yard needed cutting esp if we had used the fire pit..would’ve been too afraid to walk through thick grass. The TV wasn’t working properly…signal kept going in and out. The owner requests you wash & dry towels before check out, which can be difficult to do when you’re trying to get showers and packing up to leave. Also, no laundry detergent was provided to do said task. And there were only towels, no washcloths.
When we arrived I had to clear 20 - 25 spiders from the front porch in order to get in. Once we were in the place was neat and clean BUT had a musty oder like a damp cellar.
