My family stayed at Kathy's Cove recently and it was very pleasant, it's location is great, Kathy's Cove is close to grocery stores, gas stations and more. Comfortable beds, entire home was spotless and cute decor. Do yourself a favor forget renting a hotel room where your stuffed in one room and have to eat out or order in when you can rent Kathy's Cove this lovely place in some cases is cheaper than a Hotel. the Host responds almost immediately and very professional and pleasant as well. Definitely .

The house was perfect for the five of us. With all the comforts of home including a large patio. The bedrooms are a good size, each one had a tv in them, the master suite and a large bathroom, there's another bathroom by the other two bedrooms. Ceiling fans in every room, the living room, kitchen and dining room were spacious, also there's a washer and dryer, I defiantly recommend staying here.

Four friends from GA in Crawfordville for fishing. We chose this home over a hotel and could not have been more pleased. The home was the perfect place for us to share meals and enjoy each other's company after long days on the water. Cozy, comfortable, fully-stocked, and exceptionally clean—it had everything we needed and more. We could not have asked for a better home base. Happy to recommend and hope to return soon!

Perfect for Us

We really enjoyed the back deck for visiting and coffee drinkingThis was the perfect place for us to stay and prepare food to take to a family gathering in Crawfordville.The beds were comfortable with large tvs in each room. We hope to explore St. Marks on the water down the road next time we are here. It was all about 3 sisters getting together this time.
