Tranquil Updated Home Mins to UGA & Downtown

We stayed a week in January 2025, and this is now our go-to first choice place to stay when visiting family in Athens. Easy, relaxing, peaceful, clean, lots of space. It made our week so much more relaxing than staying in a hotel.

Modern Downtown Athens Home, 4 Beds

JenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Do not hesitate for a second to stay at this place if it’s available! The house is so well designed and decorated, and it was incredibly clean. We had three couples staying there, and it was very comfortable - each bedroom (with very comfortable beds!) has its own bathroom. Additionally, Ashley was so great to work with and even had fresh flowers and some welcome treats for our arrival. I highly recommend this place … very convenient to downtown and campus too.

Waters Edge Retreat-All Decked Out with Pond View

KelleyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We were in Athens for the SEC Swimming and Diving Championships. Go Vols! This home was recommended by a friend, who stayed last year during a swim meet. It exceeded all of our expectations. Gorgeous inside, extremely comfortable bedding, very private, top notch kitchen - a well needed break from full days at an exciting swim meet. We spent 5 nights and didn’t want to leave. About 15-18 minutes to the pool. Kelly communicated often and allowed us to check in early. By far, the best Airbnb we have stayed in. We will definitely book again when in Athens.

Walk to restaurants and downtown events!

LenRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We stayed at Mary's home during Thanksgiving holiday because we have family in the area. The home was perfect - very cute, super convenient to get to Hoschton and in close proximity to shops and restaurants in downtown Brazelton and the highway (I-85). We always appreciate hosts that allow us to bring our dogs. We took some walks around the neighborhood and stopped by the local brewery one afternoon, who welcomed them as well. Mary was very responsive with communications, was flexible with an early check-in request and provided us with a helpful app to lock and unlock the door when the front keypad was temporarily out of service. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and hope to be able to return the next time we are in the area and need a place to stay. Thank you, Mary!

Kitchen is clean and very functional. All in all, a great stay!

House on the Hill

AlanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our host Margaret was very easy to contact and replied quickly. There was one minor mechanical issue on Friday night but she had it resolved almost immediately and caused us no problem at all. The house is spacious, private, and ideal for a large group--we used it for a bridal party to stay before a wedding, and to take photos and get ready the day of the wedding. Highly recommend this house and this host with no hesitation.

The Music Box - Home on the river, in town!

WarrenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My daughters and I had an amazing stay at the Music Box! Loved everything about it. The beautiful location along the river surrounded by woods but close to all the things Athens has to offer was perfect. Really enjoyed the nicely renovated space, the comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen, the board games and all things music related! We would love to come back again, can’t recommend this place enough. Super helpful and attentive hosts as well! Thanks for a wonderful stay.

White House

ShondalaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had such a wonderful stay at Kary's place! It truly felt like a home away from home- so clean, cozy, and beautifully set up. My teenage daughters had an absolute blast playing all the games and especially loved the outdoor ping pong table, such a fun and unexpected highlight! Kary was beyond accommodating; when I mentioned we were a bit cold, she adjusted the air and made sure we were completely comfortable. Everything about our experience was easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place and would stay here again. Thank you, Kary, for being such a thoughtful super host and making our family trip even more special!
