Lovely stay in this quirky, cute bungalow. It was nice to be so close to downtown and in a safe neighborhood with sidewalks.For elderly, please be aware that the bathroom is small with a low commode and a shower that requires you to step up and over. The hosts provide everything you need to have a comfortable stay. They communicate quickly and Cathy was so gracious to mail a bag of dirty clothes we accidentally left.

About the host

Hosted by Cathy Cox-Brakefield

Host profile image
We have been married since 1990, and moved to Blue Ridge, my hometown, in 2001, after spending most of our prior adult years in the Atlanta area. We lived in our first vacation cabin for two years and then moved into our new home on my family's farm just outside town. We have two grown sons who live in the Atlanta and Austin, TX area. On the farm our babies are our dog, two cats, and three "fainting' goats. At the end of 2015, we both be retired from long legal careers and began to focus our efforts on our two vacation rental properties.

Why they chose this property

This house was previously owned by a family friend. I went with a colleague who was house hunting to look at it. She decided that it wasn't for her, but I fell in love. The house is charming and in one of Blue Ridge's original in town neighborhoods, just steps from the excitement of downtown. Having hosted visitors for over two years at Cox Farmhouse, I had a vision that couples and young families will love the option of.staying in the very convenient location within minutes of walking to shops, parks, restaurants, the library, and art galleries. The Swan, one of Georgia's last and longest operating drive-in theaters, is only a few blocks away.

What makes this property unique

With its original hardwood floor in the main living room, and charming cottage feel, this gem will be the perfect vacation spot for two couples or a family with up to three children. The living room is light and airy with a large adjoining deck for grilling and outdoor seating. The great room provides space for guests to cook, dine, and watch tv or relax while being in the same space. The lovely tiled sunroom just off the great room provides additional seating and dining space. Full laundry facilities with a large laundry sink and an extra toilet in the basement provide extra convenience.
