This house is in the perfect location, close to campus with several trails walking distance from the house. The kitchen was better stocked than we even anticipated, leading us to cook at home more than we anticipated. Would highly recommend this VRBO.

The property is very nice and the owner was very responsive, but it is DEFINITELY not walking distance to anything downtown. Ubers were always available and quick.

We were in town for a wedding and this property was very close to downtown and all the great restaurants and bars. The place was extremely clean and came with so many necessary items including laundry detergent, shampoos, soaps, and even coffee! Also, the beds were extremely comfortable. We would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises, but would highly recommend you choose it for yourself!

The house was immaculate and the location is perfect. It's a short walk to downtown and UGA. The house manager was great! I highly recommend checking it out.

It was spotless. The kitchen was well stocked with glassware, coffee, and sundry items. The beds were very comfortable, and the towels were soft and fluffy. There was plenty of room to sit for a short meeting or a cocktail. You might want to consider some hooks for hanging clothes in the upstairs smaller bedroom since the closet is locked.

We had an amazing weekend visiting our son at UGA Law. This property is in a perfect location to downtown, the stadium and local spots. We had no issues getting an Uber/Lyft in this location and also enjoyed sitting on the porch in the mornings & evenings. Christi takes great care of her property and it is stocked with everything needed. We will definitely book again soon! GO DAWGS!

We loved our stay. I’m a UGA alumni living in Florida, so I’m excited to find this gem to come back too! The house is beautiful and Leo perfectly clean. The proximity to downtown and campus made it very easy each day for us to head to campus and downtown. We look forward to coming back soon!

This was the perfect place for us to stay. It had plenty of room for all of us to sleep, and everything was new and beautiful. The owners have decorated the whole house so tastefully and special touches like a welcome basket really made it feel like home. Parking was easy and plentiful, and we just had a really great stay!
5.0 / 5.0
Comfortable place with just enough space. Beds were comfy and it was a well kept, clean house. You can walk to downtown, but it is maybe 20 minutes through a mostly vacant park and across a pedestrian bridge. We walked several times! The neighborhood feels a bit gritty and transitional, so be careful. Host was great with excellent communication.
