The house is amazing and it is stocked with everything you need! The host is very responsive. Overall excellent experience and we would definitely stay there again!
We had such a wonderful time - the home was absolutely beautiful, impeccably clean, and impressively stocked. The location was fantastic (less than 5 minutes to food and to a local park). Highly recommend!!
Hands down the nicest VRBO I have ever stayed in. Not only was the property exactly as described it was even better! I could not have asked for a better property for our wedding weekend! The host were amazing and had everything we could think of
This house and the owner was so wonderful!! Everything was super clean and very beautifully decorated! The game zone was fun for our kids and we all had such a great stay!! Will be booking again!
This house was an absolute pleasure to stay in. From the great location to the comfortable bedding and beautiful bathrooms, everything was seamless and well thought out. We especially loved the amenities and games…they made it feel like home and added so much to our stay. We’re very grateful for such an easy, enjoyable experience.
Truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house in Watkinsville. Very spacious, and great amenities. I would highly recommend and will definitely stay here again!!! Owner was great and easy to work with as always!
This was by far one of the best homes we have ever stayed in, and we are a very picky family! Everything about this was home was high end excellence..from the beautiful decor, stunning architecture, and luxurious bath products..I cannot recommend this home enough! Everyone had great nights of sleep in the comfortable and spacious bedrooms. Everything about this home is PERFECTION! We loved sitting outside in the beautiful yard and in the relaxing screened in porch. The owner, Maggie, is so kind and gracious and she thought of everything you will need to have a wonderfully relaxing stay! Do yourself a favor and book this home today!
Beautiful property. The owner thought of everything! Lovely decor and spacious bedrooms and common areas. We really enjoyed the screened in back porch for breakfast and later relaxing and reflecting on the beautiful wedding that was held at the Classic Center only a 20 minutes drive.
Love this Property - It fit all my family (14 of us ) and the attention to detail and amidites are 5-Star. We loved the big open back yard with the fire pit and that every bedroom had a bathroom Ideal location for our GA Football Weekend! We definitely will be back next year, but hoping sooner. Maggie was a pleasure and very easy to get ahold of. If you havent yet - - Book it now!
This is our team's second time staying in this home. And I can say, this stay was even better than the last. The owners made some improvements and additions to the home. We found ourselves in the game room one night watching some football on the tv in this same space. Everythign you might need is provided - attention to detail is evident. If you are looking for a place near Watkinsville/Athens area ... this is your place!
I hate to really tell eveyone how wonderful this home is because I don't want it to be sold out the next time I need to book this place LOL.This home was perfect for our needs. The description is spot on and the host was attentive to every detail. Maggie was responsive to any questions we had and would quickly respond.If you need a place to stay, look no further ... you have found it right here!
We were there for the Combat Veteran Motorcycle Association National Convention and decided to rent a place outside of Athens. This location took us 14 minutes to get to EVERYWHERE! SUPER CLEAN- Super Cozy and had EVERY amenity that we even needed! Ms Maggie was very attentive to communications and was so accommodating. The house felt like my own home and we all had plenty of room with our own bath. I will absolutely stay again if we find ourselves back in that area!
This property was very clean and beautiful in a quite neighborhoods if I ever in the areas. I will want to rent the house again. Picture doesn’t do justice.
