The Old Banks County Courthouse is in Homer, Georgia. Construction started in 1860 but was interrupted because of the Civil War. Construction was paid for with $6,600 in Confederate money. Construction was finished in 1875. (The Georgia Courthouse Manual dates it as completed in 1863.) The building is a two-story brick courthouse with a stone foundation in the Greek Revival style. It is similar to many courthouses in Virginia, which is a result of the builders being from Virginia. It has Tuscan columns that are on top of one-story brick piers. The interior originally had a cross plan. The courtroom and judge's chambers are on the second floor, which are accessed by outside double stairways.

"The owner met us upon arrival and was amazing helping us find our way around the area especially over the holidays. The home was as pictured and as I mentioned before a comfy country cottage. Had everything you need and the quiet we were looking for after spending a busy day with family. I would recommend to other couples who appreciate getting away from the big city life. The house could use a few updates in the master bathroom shower and some caulking around the sinks, but it didn’t affect...

"House was beautiful, clean, beds were completely comfortable & smells so good. Fishing was nice & relaxing. Most definitely would stay here again."

"The space felt smaller than the pictures but the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for a holiday stay. The gravel driveway took skills and a high clearance car to manage. Everything was clean and location on the river was very relaxing"

"very quite nice place to relax and enjoy"

"We enjoyed the home and the animals. Our only regret was not having more time to stay and enjoy more of this beautiful cottage!"

"Nice, quiet and relaxing family trip. This home was very accommodating and pleasant. Each room was in the exact shape described. This home provided the best holiday experience for my family and I. I definitely would recommend this listing for future stays."

"It was nice had plenty of room for everybody to Location was perfect. Only 7 miles away from the job so we didn’t really have time to enjoy we were there for work. Everything was good I would stay there again."

"Everything about the cabin shouted comfort and rest. The fire pit, double sinks in bath, along with the kitchen island and washer/dryer all made this one of our best getaways. Also, the color scheme was a plus. "Georgia on my mind" kind of setting in the picturesque pines you will enjoy there. Also, host was very responsive. "

"Beautiful place "

"The property owner was wonderful to work with. We had a few snags and she was very responsive and helpful. The cabin is decorated super cute. The beds are probably the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in! We will definitely be back in the future!"
