It was perfect. And the sweet young family running the house are great hostesses. The only thing I’d suggest is more towels. But everything was great.

Very comfortable, great location

We were attending a convention at the Centreplex and were glad it was so close by. It was very quiet and seemed like a safe area. We enjoyed going downtown (just a few blocks down the road)for dinner and entertainment.

Amazing. Charming, historic Macon!

You’d be hard-pressed to fine better accommodations if you plan to spend anytime in downtown Macon. Walking distance to everything and that old-world charm that Macon offers. Big, cavernous rooms w ancient hardwood flooring; beds SO comfortable. Our family HAD A BLAST! We’ll be back!

Cherry Street House is a Must

Cherry Street House is a beautiful, charming example of Southern architecture. With the old hardwood floors, original fireplaces and molding, and cozy decor, this rental is a must for those that love the old, original homes of the South. The place was super clean and nicely stocked with anything you'd need for a family stay. Right down the street from the historic downtown district, there were many food and entertainment choices. The host was very helpful and easy to contact. The area was quiet so we slept great at night. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a quiet stay in Macon.
