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.

"Nice place. "

"Beautiful house, newly renovated, very clean and spacious. Great dock and views!"

"This is our second time staying at this property and plan to come back time and time again. Owner has everything very well thought out and is very responsive and accommodating. Its the perfect spot, you have privacy yet not too far out of the way. Stock up with food upon arrival and youll have no reason to leave. "

"Excellent location, clean and inviting. I would definitely stay there again. My only gripe would be that the owners were staying in the pool house( yes it was disclosed down in the details, my mistake). No issue with them as they are wonderful people and their pups very friendly! "

"Such a wonderful VRBO! We felt spoiled in this beautiful property! Can’t wait to come back."

"Great location and amenities right on the lake. Smart home with lots of cool features. Host was super responsive and helpful. Definitely would recommend!!"
