The DOWNTOWN LOFT, on the square, across from Piedmont University, sleeps 4.
The DOWNTOWN LOFT has a classy chic style and is one of four unique stays offered by "Haven at Hazel, a Downtown Retreat." The spacious loft provides all the comforts of home for up to four travelers looking for an extraordinary stay. It is located on the square in downtown Demorest, a short walk from two restaurants, a boutique coffee shop, and Piedmont University. Our once storefronts have been converted into lodging that perfectly complements the charm of the downtown square. Downtown Loft is a fully furnished in-town retreat. The place's classy, chic vibe and design will make you feel relaxed. The loft is one of four distinctly designed private units in Haven at Hazel. If you are a frequent visitor, each place has a different style and experience. Downtown Loft is a private apartment with a front and back door. The back door provides easy access to our common area, and we also have a front common area with a central fountain and benches overlooking the square. We want your stay to be worry-free and hope to help with that by providing all the basic essentials such as coffee, dishes, cooking and eating utensils, pots and pans, towels, shampoo, conditioner, and soap. With notice, we will leave any special request items. We pride ourselves on quick responses before, during, and after your stay. We are solution-oriented and will work quickly to resolve any issue or concern you may have. Depending on the circumstances, we will communicate through the booking platform or phone. We have service providers who can respond quickly if needed.

We are so glad you loved your stay at the Haven at Hazel Loft. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience and for leaving us a review. We look forward to hosting you again soon.
Such a welcoming and put together home away from home when visiting Piedmont! We love the village decor feel which reminds us we are in an historic town. Really enjoy the laid back vibe of the hosts and the clean, home like environment within walking distance to one of our favorite restaurants!
We truly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfectly nestled in the middle of town. The loft itself was very clean and had a great design. Definitely would stay again.

Beautiful little place that suited our every need. We were in town to attend our granddaughter’s softball games at Piedmont College which was right across the street. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and accommodations. Definitely would stay again. Highly recommended!!!

Great stay. Would recommend night lights because when you turn light switch all the lights go out. There are lamps in bedrooms but hallway and living room are dark. More comfortable seating in living room would be good. But loved the place, we will be back.
The location is excellent, close to many small towns in NE GA and walking distance to dining. The apartment was attractive and clean with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable bed. Check-in and out went smoothly as did communication with host. We would definitely stay there again.

Thanks, Susan. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. So glad you enjoyed the stay at the Haven at Hazel Loft. We look forward to hosting you again soon at any of our properties.
We loved the Loft on Hazel! It was very easy to get into and out of the area. The apartment itself is charming and well equipped for what you need to make your stay wonderful. Michele the host provided the information without having to ask. We love the NGA area and found Demorest charming and a centralized area for wine tasting on the East side!
We have now stayed at one or another of these properties on 3 occasions. Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Also convenient with parking at the front door and so easy to come and go. I am sure we will be back.

Downtown loft was perfect. My daughter is an athlete at Piedmont University, I came to visit during spring break since she had practices and downtown loft was a perfect location. We enjoyed staying here with it so close to everything we needed. Will definitely be back.

Thanks so much for leaving us a review. We always look forward to hosting our Piedmont families. We appreciate the five-star review and look forward to hosting you again on your next visit.
I enjoyed my stay at this very cute condo. It is well decorated, comfortable and has everything needed for a couple or small family. The location near the University and restaurants is a huge plus. Communication with the owner was quick and easy. I will definitely stay here again in the next few years while my daughter is at Piedmont.
We stayed in apartment c. It was clean, comfortable and very elegantly decorated. The property managers were quick to respond via messaging. We will stay here again.

The downtown Loft was perfect for our visit with our daughter that attends Piedmont University. The loft was very clean and super cozy! The beds are also very comfortable. The pictures are great but it’s even better in person. We would definitely recommend staying there. 5 out of 5 stars!

Thank you so much for the five-star review. I say this often in reviews: We love hosting the Piedmont families. They are always the perfect, gracious guests and enjoy how close Haven at Hazel is to the university.
We had a great stay at this property in Demorest, GA. It was clean, quiet, and very comfortable, with easy parking just a few feet from the front door. Check-in was a breeze, and the location in peaceful downtown Demorest was perfect for exploring the scenic North Georgia mountains. We did have a small issue with the water heater at first, but the owner responded immediately and resolved it quickly—hot showers for the rest of the trip! Overall, a great experience and would definitely stay again.
