Cute and cozy!
Worked well for our stay. We were in town for a college graduation. Would have liked to be able to take a walk from the location. Busy road was too close to property and definitely could not walk along it.

Best place to stay!
The property was beautiful along with the house. The house had more than we expected. The kiddos loved the house and even nicknamed it the "Georgia House". Definitely recommend. The host was kind and is even shipping my sons favorite stuffed animal back to PA since it was left under the bed. This will be our go to house for all future trips!!

Lovely weekend stay
My friend and I were in town just a couple of nights for a wedding. She had to do some remote work and I had my dog with me. We all had our own space and had a great time!
