We needed to stop on our way to Florida and Gwen’s home was absolutely amazing. The home was very clean and full of amenities. We especially enjoyed sitting on the porch to bird watch in the morning. The gift of bread was also a great surprise! Highly recommend staying here whether it’s for a night or an extended stay!

This property was perfect for our family while we were in town for a baseball tournament. It was just 10 minutes from the fields in Magee. It was clean, and in a quiet little neighborhood. Beds were comfortable and the host left some yummy sourdough from a local bakery and some snacks- an unexpected surprise! We enjoyed sitting on the front porch watching the squirrels and listening to the birds early in the morning. Highly recommend the Magnolia House!

This was an excellent stay! Gwen, the host communicated wonderfully and made us feel right at home. The home itself is a historic beauty! It was so charming to sit with our coffee in the morning in the sun room and watch the squirrels and birds. Mt. Olive is a peaceful little community and I cannot recommend this place enough to rest your head and take a slow southern minute to unwind. Thank you Gwen for sharing your little piece of heaven!
