"It's a very well maintained property, very clean and neat. Amenities (breakfast, snacks, soda, water, beer, wine) are great and staff extremely nice (and available). Room (Ivey) was just what we needed, retro decoration, nice bed, large bathroom. Location is great (S. Milledge). Close to University (walkable), can walk to several restaurants and close to sororities/fraternities, but not within hearing distance. Would highly recommend for an upper scale visit to Athens or UGA"

4BR/4BA luxury-Sleeps up to 13, Pvt Entrance N Oconee Rvr-Edge of UGA Campus

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful home and relaxing setting. Excellent beds, pillows, everything you need for an outstanding stay. The only challenge we had is I only use the website, not the app, and the host primarily used the app. Once we got that sorted - communication was awesome."

Just off Milledge 3BD/2BA Pet Friendly with EV Charger

10/10 Excellent

"Mark and Mandy provided the perfect house for our family to celebrate our daughter’s birthday and another UGA game day. The interior and exterior were fully renovated with high end materials. There was a brand new smell to the house and every utensil, electronic, charging station and even a leaf blower was at your disposal to make the stay feel like you were at home. The fenced back yard was perfect for our dogs and provided plenty of space for some fetch. The location was ideal off Milledge Ave, and we even grabbed a round of golf at the UGA course. We would definitely use this property again in the future and recommend it to our friends. Checked every box for us!"
