Great location and amazing hosts. Nice master bedroom. Great kids room. Pool table and pool are a nice touch for entertainment. Fire pit worked great for making smores with the kids. Would definately stay here again.
Beautiful home, considerate hosts, the pool was perfect and exactly what we were looking for! Would love to bring friends here for a quiet getaway sometime.
The house is great and the property is top notch if you are looking for peace and quiet. The location is in a very pretty area with a nice pond that is filled with wildlife. The host was very nice, it has all the essentials and has great WiFi.
All family members enjoyed our stay. Girls loved the pool and boys enjoyed fishing the pond. Rooms were clean and house was safe and cozy. Hosts were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this property for families.
The hosts were extremely accommodating. The home was comfortable! We were there to work in the area, so it was nice to get back everyday to a relaxed country setting. Highly recommend!
Nice spot to meet up with family to celebrate our son's graduation away from Athens. We were able to cook/eat at home which allowed less time waiting in lines/driving and more quality time with family.
Had a great weekend here with our kids. Took them to the GA game, which is only 30 minutes away. They enjoyed the pool and pond on the property. The house had everything we needed and we slept comfortably. The owner responded quickly to our questions. Highly recommend!
The only thing I would say is that the fry pans and cooking utensils need to be updated. House had plenty of room and we would book again. We did appreciate the quick response fir any issues.
The house was clean, but the driveway had some clutter that could have been removed. The bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchen was clean. The curtain rods were broken so if you moved the curtains it fell off. The backyard looked like it needed a good cleaning up. We did not use the pool. The kitchen was okay. We didn't cook. Overall, I would recommend but don't expect too much. Owners were very nice.
We needed a place to stay for the weekend because we were visiting the area for our granddaughters birthday. Ten family members stayed and we all enjoyed our time together. The pool table was great to entertain our grandsons and husbands. We were gone during the day and ate out. Kitchen was fully equipped with all items a family wold need. We had our own k-cup coffee maker, but rental has a very nice coffee maker and a large container of coffee was left in the refrigerator for guests. Good WiFi, TV reception.

Glad you all enjoyed our peaceful retreat away from it all as much as we do. Thank you for taking such good care of things during your stay and we hope to have you back again sometime.
I had out of state family stay here for a reunion in the area. It served the purpose very well. The only complaint would be that it didn’t seem as clean as one would hope and I’m not any kind of clean freak. Nothing major, just didn’t seem like it had been cleaned properly for a while. When the next reunion comes around I’ll be happy to revisit it though!

We rented this location for our family who lives across the country and those her
The property is secluded and could be really nice if taken care of. The house was not clean and there is multiple piles of junk around the property from old mattresses to old toilets just dumped around the property. The inside was not clean at all . There was no internet. I was just disappointed and would not rent here again. It’s too bad since it could be such a lovely secluded get away if taken care of and cleaned .
