Great neighborhood! The kids enjoyed riding bikes and just playing and walking the dogs. The beds were so comfy and the location was great! We met a couple of the neighbors and eveyone was friendly. Tv master bed would not work for us, need a few more towels and maybe a little yard work in the back yard.

We were in town for a family wedding.The Home was very clean just worn down. The fenced in back yard was great for the dogs just over grown. Would have loved to use patio furniture but the patio area needed to be maintained better.Loved the king size beds and blackout curtains in the bedrooms. Could have used extra blankets on the beds.Kitchen had everything we needed!Also loved the big TV was great to have to watch football.Neighborhood was wonderful, enjoyed lots of walks while we were there.Thanks for letting us stay in your home

Our stay was excellent. The only issue we had was the main bathroom shower drained really slow and when you finished showering you were standing in about 1.5” to 2” of water. I did report the to the host.

Great place to stay!!!

Great place to stay. This was our second time staying here. It is close to our family we were visiting. The property was real clean. The neighborhood Is quite with plenty of wildlife. The only negative was we checked out on Sunday. We had to take all the garbage out and roll their garbage can to the street. We paid a cleaning fee for them to clean. Why would I have to roll the garbage cans to the street if the cleaning crew was coming to clean!!!

New Years trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sunny Bird. The house has a cool 60’s retro vibe and had plenty of room for us and our dogs. The real gem is the Shirley Hills neighborhood, it is lovely. We had no idea something like this even existed in Macon. It’s great for walking and the nearby Jackson Springs Park has a pretty camellia garden in full bloom right now. We came for a concert NYE at the City Auditorium, it’s a nice small venue. Downtown is thriving with all kinds of shops, bars, restaurants and we were pleasantly surprised. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again.

Communication is Everything

The home was pleasant, quiet, roomy, and as described. The neighborhood was nice. Communication from the owners was definitely lacking. First of all we didn’t receive access to the property until late Thursday night. We were leaving early Friday morning so this made me very uncomfortable and for a nerve-racking road trip. We had sent 3 messages several hours apart plus customer service was contacted & they sent 2 messages before the owners finally responded. Then, after we arrived I asked if there were any extra blankets because it got down in the 40s at night. They had the “dog blankets” but my guest didn’t want to use a dog blanket. Since the owners never responded we decided to turn up the heat. One of us was comfortable but the rest of us got hot. It’s unfortunate that we had a bad experience and for the cost I will say you would not stay here again. We need answers to our questions with good, timely communication.

Nice home away

We booked this home from Thursday to Monday. It was quiet, cool, and comfortable. Having this house to go home to after a full day convention was a pleasure. Our drive every morning was highlighted by deer everywhere. They had no fear and were peacefully grazing along the roadside and behind the home. Would stay again.
