About this property

On the lake AND in Downtown Eufaula

On the lake AND in the heart of Downtown Eufaula. Walk to shops, dining and the Yoholo Micco Trail from this great location. This historic home was built in 1882 and served as Eufaula's original town jail prior to its restoration as a city park and now a residential home. Eufaula's "Old Town Jail" is currently listed on the national register of historic places and is one of many historic structures in the town of Eufaula. Beautifully restored and renovated, the home still contains its original features, but includes all the modern amenities and comforts. You will not find a more fascinating and charming home than this, and the location can't be beat! Two bedrooms and 1 bath with 1200 sq feet of living space. Several boat launches located within minutes, and plenty of room to park your vehicles and boat. Dogs are welcome with a $50 non-refundable pet fee. Providence Canyon, AKA the Little Grand Canyon of Georgia is approx 20 miles away.

Old town jail stay

Loved this property, was actually bigger than I anticipated. Views from property out to the lake are beautiful. Walkable distance to downtown & trails. Loved it was pet friendly. The only thing I would suggest, which is minor, is screening in the patio area.

A perfect getaway

We loved the charm and uniqueness of the property. The close proximity to restaurants, boutiques and coffee/ice cream shops was also a plus. The property manager was very responsive answering questions in advance and during our stay. We will definitely book again if we travel through the area.

A very unique, historical property that overlooks Lake Eufaula. Clean, comfortable, well outfitted, great views and in walking distance to town, where we enjoyed eating at the Eufaula Sandwich Shop and the Cajun Corner.

Cozy historic house with beautiful view!

Our family of 4 had a great time! The historic house has old charm with new amenities (upgraded HVAC, instahot, new appliances, etc). The Yoholo Micco walking trail and downtown area is within a reasonable walking distance. Beautiful view of the lake and we ate dinner on the porch every night.

Quaint Lakeside Cottage

Really neat little place. The nostalgia of the old jailhouse added to its charm. Close to downtown shopping and dining. Providence Canyon is a short drive away and a must when visiting the area. We will be back to stay again.

Great Holiday Stay

My husband, mother-in-law and I stayed at the property to visit our adult sons that live near the area. Everyone loved the property. We loved the historical value, how clean it was, the views, the amount of space and the neighborhood. The view of the lake is so gorgeous! The full kitchen allowed us to cook breakfast every morning and have everyone over for Christmas dinner. We would highly recommend the property.

The stay was good, our disappointment was the town was really run down which is was not expected. We came to fish and visit the town which we had wanted to do for along time. And the weather was not great either.
