Mystic Weekend

The Dolly did not disappoint. It was a lovely place to stay and it's within short distances to all the places we wanted to visit. Highly recommend and the owner reached out to us and let us know they were available to help us any way we needed.

Just us Girls

I was so grateful to find this quaint wonderful place. I wanted to stay close to my daughter's school to help her move in. I was joined by my two nieces. Our room was fabulous. Included everything we needed plus some... plenty spacious to accommodate the fours of use. Best night sleep on their comfy beds. Very quiet area and within close proximity to the little square. I so look forward to returning.

We didn’t want to leave this place! It was so nice, so clean, and the owners were beyond helpful and responsive! If we ever return to Covington, we will be staying here again!! We also couldn’t get enough of the decor. It’s perfect for a girl’s trip! I can’t recommend this place enough. Book it asap! :-)

Cute and quaint

Very cute property, I love the cozy feel. Only thing I did miss apart from other houses I’ve stayed at is tv in the rooms. The beds were comfy and it was very close to the square which was great. The vanity in the bathroom did not leave much room to comfortably sit on the toilet as you had to almost sit sideways. All in all a great stay.

Who knew?

First time in Covington. Now we know it's known as the Hollywood of the South and for good reason. We stumbled upon filming of a major movie to be released in 2026. Super exciting to see it up close and personal. The town square was a fun spot with great restaurants and shops. Highly recommend the social goat for dining. The Dolly is close to the square and was so comfy and cozy after a long day of sightseeing. Perfect in every way for our stay. Thanks, Lindsey and Travis
