Everything was great except the water takes a while to heat up for showers in the master. Besides that it was an amazing place. Host was great at communicating.

This home exceeded expectations. The UGA theme decor was tasteful and perfect as we celebrated our son’s law school graduation. Plenty of space for 8 adults and we were able to easily host a dinner for 9 in the dining room. Kitchen was very well stocked so we just needed to bring the food. House was clean, beds were comfortable and linens like-new. Wish the back deck and patio were cleaner so we could have enjoyed the outdoor space. Plenty of parking for guests. Very convenient to campus and restaurants.
