★ ★ GUEST REVIEWS ★ ★ "This Cozy Cottage was exactly what we needed for our stay in Athens. We were in town for a family funeral and having this comfortable home to stay was a blessing. Our host checked-in on us during our stay, but we didn't need anything as the home had all that we could need. Great location and beautifully decorated. Would recommend to anyone." – Allen
"We had an amazing trip to Athens, staying at the cottage with all the amenities we could wish for. The bonus was the wonderful paintings by Meredith, one of the hosts. Alex and Meredith were both top-notch hosts. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to Athens!" – Chris
"Spent over a month here and felt completely at home. Very cozy and comfortable; convenient location; lovely hosts. Would thoroughly recommend staying here." – Pamela

This is the most darling house in a perfect neighborhood. It was safe and quiet, yet within minutes of everything Athens has to offer! Alex and Merideth were helpful before and during our visit. They ensured the house was clean, stocked with supplies, and ready for immediate relaxation. The delicious cookies and Pellegrino waiting for us made it all the better! Not to mention the incredibly cozy beds in every room.
I recommend this spot to anyone looking for a home away from home. Our daughter lives in Athens, so we will definitely be back.

À propos de l’hôte
Hôte : Alex Akins
Mer and I have been most happily married for 2 years. We enjoy traveling and experiencing new things. Mer is an artist, receiving an increasing amount of notoriety in NE Georgia - Check her out at meredithraifordart.com. The mountains are my 2nd love. I spend every free opportunity on the Ocoee River working as a raft guide or paddling for leisure.
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
Our cottage is situated perfectly in The Classic City. Downtown and Sanford Stadium are located less than 1 mile from our home. No matter the event, you are never more than a 15 minute drive from any point in town.
Further, our home is comfortable and clean. We believe you should be exploring Athens during the day. However, once you arrive home, you should be able to kick off your shoes and relax in pure comfort.
