Amazing house and wonderful host

We went to Athens to surprise our daughter for her birthday and Jennifer made our surprise even better. She knew it was a special weekend and she sent a birthday cookie cake to us to celebrate. The house is in a great location, close to campus and it is so clean and welcoming. We will definitely be staying there a lot more in the future!

Wonderful house with terrific property manager

The property manager, Jennifer, is the best manager I have every had with a VRBO property. She responded very quickly to any and all questions I had. If I needed something at the house, she took care of it very quickly. The house matches the pictures. It is well maintained, clean, and in a conveniently located part of Athens. We will stay here again when our travels bring us back to Athens.

Perfect spot for Parent's Weekend

This house was perfect. Always difficult finding places to stay for games/parent's weekends. Lucked out finding this house. Hose is a great communicator and the house was supplied with everything we needed. Great layout for friends staying together or family. Perfect proximity to campus. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Great Stay!

Fabulous place with lots of room, thoughtful amenities and a "new home" feel! We were a group of 7 alumni of a UGA sorority in town for a 100th Anniversary celebration. We stayed 3 nights, had plenty of room to visit, eat and sleep comfortably, get ready and even get away if needed! Jennifer's place is an oasis with tasteful UGA touches, a fully-stocked and spacious kitchen, great outdoor space and close to town and campus. We will come again!
