Beautiful home, super host!

My family stayed at this property for my son's graduation from UGA and absolutely loved it. It is truly a gem- a beautiful, well-kept home, super clean with great outdoor spaces and such an easy drive to campus. The host was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. The home and the host exceeded our expectations!
