The relaxing train bungalow on main

We had a very nice experience at the Buford bungalow. Very nicely decorated, clean with lots of room to spread out. The train was a fun bonus as it rumbled by, (our sons favorite). A great walking distance to the restaurants and local shops. We look forward to staying, at the Buford bungalow house next year! definitely will be back next year.

Wonderful

Our stay in the blue bungalow was perfect. The house is very clean and look just as advertised. The area is also amazing with many restaurants in walking distance. We also loved the trains. The beds were all very comfortable. Book it! You will be happy you did.

Perfect Cottage

We loved our stay! The cottage is charming, clean, exactly as described and had everything we needed and more. The smaller bedroom in the back was perfect for our baby grandson. Really appreciated the fenced in front yard for the dog. We enjoyed our strolls into town and loved how close it was to the restaurants We ate at Aqua Terra and at Tani Thai, both excellent restaurants. The train is close but we found it charming. Highly Recommend this cottage if you visit Buford.

Perfect!

Wow!! We loved staying here and if we didn’t live so close we would stay here again. This bungalow is full of charm. Perfectly appointed. We were there during the Christmas season and it was decorated for Christmas. The train does run in front of the house but that was charming as well. Walk to dt Buford restaurants. We would recommend to anyone!!

Lovely home!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely home in Buford, GA, and it was an great experience! The host was incredibly responsive and provided all the necessary details for a smooth check-in. The property itself is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The living space is spacious and comfortable, making it easy to relax. I especially loved the cozy backyard – it was the perfect spot to enjoy my morning coffee. The location is fantastic! It's close to restaurants and for the purpose of my trip, conveniently located close to the church where my niece was baptized. Overall, I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable stay in Buford.
