This was the second time staying at College Town. It is a great location and very convenient to downtown and stadium. A short Uber ride!! Also super convenient to Publix (for groceries) and Dunkin Donuts (for breakfast and coffee). The unit was very neat and clean. We stayed on a football weekend and the only drawback was loud music playing next door the night of the game. It was really loud from 1:30-3:00 am. But I expect that in a college town on game day. We really like this unit and would definitely stay again.

Great spot for the four of us to stay for a UGA game. Kitchen was super stocked. Unit was bigger than I expected. We’d love to stay there again when there to cheer on the DAWGS!

UGA game day

We had a great experience here! We stayed overnight for a UGA football game. We got there at midnight and left at 10:00 am so our stay was short. But the place was super cute and clean. Wish we had more time to enjoy it. Very convenient location to the UGA campus- easy Uber downtown. Would definitely stay again!

Great place for a family

My husband and I rented this property with our two daughters while we attended a dance competition in the Athens Civic Center. House was perfect for what we needed. Great location and well stocked. Close to all the good stuff! Property own was very accommodating as our schedule and stay needs changed due to the competition schedule and she was super helpful and flexible! I highly recommend this house if you have an event in the area.

Excellent condo

This is the second time we have stayed here. We came for a high school band event my daughter was in. It was very convenient to downtown and south campus UGA where the event was held. It was in a small quiet community. Clean, stocked with what we needed. Slept 6 without feeling cramped. Loved it. Will stay again in the future if we return. Thanks!

Cozy little place

We stayed here while my daughters had UGA gymnastics camp. It was a cozy stay. The beds were comfortable and we had more than enough space for all of us. The bathrooms were stocked with so many fluffy towels and there were extra blankets in the bedrooms. The only complaint we had was the gnats (drain flys) and there were 2 big water bugs who made an appearance. We also had a scorpion visit us in the living room one night. There was bug spray present so it may be a common problem. We figured it was due to the rain and the fact that it’s surrounded by trees. It was very conveniently located close to everything and not far from the university.

Great Weeding weekend

We were six adults, the oldest 85 (me) the youngest 32 for my granddaughter wedding. We had a great time, the townhouse was close enough to all the venues and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay!

Adequate

No extra toilet paper (had to buy even though only stayed 2 nights) , body wash in both bathrooms low or empty but no extra supply. Downstairs mattresses uncomfortable with metal springs in them. Unable to open back door due to size of dryer. Multiple broken blinds. Check out instructions not on listing but were in 3 ring binder and included stripping beds and taking out trash but could not use back door to do it. Positive: two different types of coffee makers. Easy electronic lock. HVAC worked fine and had ceiling fans. Parking convenient. Plenty of towels.

Wedding Weekend

My family and I stayed here for my niece's wedding. The place was spacious, very clean, and well stocked with amenities such as towels, soaps, detergents, and shampoo. The location is great, being very near to restaurants, 2 grocery stores, and gas station. We felt very safe in the neighborhood. The owner answered any questions that we had promptly. I highly recommend!!!

Cozy, relaxing, centrally located, home away from home

We really enjoyed staying here, this space was perfect for our family. Upon walking inside, we felt welcome and the decor is so cozy. The beds were very comfortable and the dining and kitchen areas were spacious and well lit. We really enjoyed the Roku and living room space to relax.

We stayed for one night while visiting with friends in the area but it was great! We loved having two bathrooms and the downstairs bedroom had a huge mirror so my daughter and her friends has plenty of room to get ready. Super simple check in/check out. Definitely recommend!
