This fellow is trying, but, literally needs to read a book on VRBO or get coaching from VRBO. Terrible outside appearance. Inside is OK. Description and location relative to UGA campus & stadium are misleading at best. We had door lock and TV issues which the owner fixed, but, I mean who wants to spend a sports weekend fussing with house rental basics. Some of the very basic VRBO necessities (coffee tissues) were absent and several of the pots just looked so awful that we could not cook. We were charged top dollar for a football weekend which is completely understandable, but, the overall experience was disappointing. I rent a lot on VRBO in various areas of the country and I know good from bad. If you rent here I hope you are either very easy going and/or lucky.

If you read the previous reviews you will know these are not accurate. He had a couple problems with a door and TV remotes which I quickly rectified. He never complained during his stay but left me a personal note on the table asking for a partial refund. He wanted me to email him directly instead of through VRBO. I responded through the VRbO messaging center the way they recommend and offered a partial refund for the minor inconveniences he experienced. It was not the amount he was hoping for so he refused it. I assume the reason he wanted me to email him directly so that VRBO would not see my reply and then complain about me to VRBO to try to get a full refund. I have two very successful VRBOs and have had a few clients like this over the years. It is a shame that they are allowed to continue using the platform.
Great communication. House is actually nicer than the listing appears. Good location close to campus.would recommend.

Overall we enjoyed our stay and host was easy to work with. Neighboring property was an eye sore. Refrigerator does not dispense water or ice. 1 bathroom with very small shower.
Very clean and smelled wonderful! Everything was convenient in the home and easy access to where we needed to be. The beds were very comfortable! The host was easy to reach and communicated very well-I love that! You can tell the host cares and it shows in the property as well! Thank you!
This cute cottage is in a great location. It is close to restaurants, sororities & fraternities, and it is a short Uber ride to the stadium and downtown. It was the perfect place for us to stay during our Parent’s Weekend. The beds are comfortable, and the cottage has a washer and dryer and a fully equipped kitchen—perfect for my small family. David is accommodating and responsive!

Needs a little TLC
I really wanted to like this property, as I always do my research to find places that fit our needs. Unfortunately, this stay didn’t meet expectations. The house itself could use some upkeep and a thorough cleaning. It has potential, but it feels like it hasn’t been well-maintained.The biggest challenge was the neighboring property, where several large dogs are outside 24/7. They barked throughout the night, which made it hard to get restful sleep, and one morning they were left roaming outside and came running towards us when we went outside, jumping on us. We had to go back inside until the owner contained them. Needless to say, this was a little unsettling.With some improvements to the home and better awareness of the surrounding environment, this could be a more enjoyable place to stay. Until then, I’d recommend future guests be aware of these factors before booking.

Thank you for this feedback, Michelle. I’m sorry you did not like our place. I sure wish you had shared this feedback with me before now. Future guests – note that we just took over this property in January and are currently addressing all the concerns. A new six foot fence is being added in the next couple months.
