In the area for an event at the Classic Center and enjoyed the ideal location of this townhouse. Comfortable furniture, quaint decor and a general warm feel made our stay complete. Thanks to the owners; we hope to return another time.

The house has an eclectic bohemian vibe. It is very colorful and has lots of art paintings on the walls. I found it very charming and relaxing. Also, it’s located a walking distance to downtown.

It was exactly what we needed while in town for a UGA Baseball game. Close to downtown, clean & comfortable. My only improvement would be to make sure there is bedding on the top bunk of the bunk beds. We had to improvise for our 5 year old who slept on the top bunk because there were no sheets or pillow up there. Other than that it was a lovely stay.

This charming property was exactly what we needed to set up for and host an event at Lyndon House Arts Center just across the street. The place is well-appointed with tons of bold art covering the walls. Well-maintained. Would definitely stay here again if the need arose. The property owner is very responsive to requests for information or assistance. The neighborhood is quiet but SO convenient to downtown.

Nice townhome close to everything downtown. We enjoyed our short stay exploring Athens and enjoying a concert at the Georgia Theatre. Clean comfortable and private.
Only recommendation would be to rake leaves in backyard for a more enjoyable outside experience.
Thank you

Close to everything in The Classic City!! Yet, tucked away enough and quiet and peaceful. Loved the screened in porch as well as the super cute front patio-yard.

Great location. A great outdoor area to enjoy grilling and a fire. The privacy fence and ambiance of the string lights is a perfect setting for great conversation.

I have to admit my first impression wasn't the best. We had a little bit of a hard time finding the townhouse even using GPS. and the front yard needed tending. Second impression was much better. The fenced in backyard was nice to have for privacy and for the kids to play in. The neighborhood was quite. With in walking distance to downtown. The inside was very clean. The beds are comfortable. And with young kids the gates at the top and bottom of the stairs were a great benefit. Gwyneth was very easy to work with when we had a problem with the internet and the problem was solved in a timely fashion. Would definitely recommend staying there.
