Apartment in Athens

Purple’s Little Apartment.

SarahRating, 5 stars6 days ago

Our stay was perfect, start to finish. Aysha was responsive and I’ve literally never been in a cleaner home. We literally commented that the apartment looked like it had never been used. The space is perfect for 2 people; quiet and comfortable. We can’t wait to get back and stay again. Everything is close by; walkable or bikeable. And the apt is directly above an Athens icon. 1 million % recommend.

Dove Cottage Forest Retreat

DeanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

My brothers and I were in the area over Memorial weekend on our motorcycles to ride The Windy Nine motorcycle roads. This location was perfect, just outside of Athens but not too far. Quaint little cabin in the woods the also offered cover for our bikes to keep them from collecting morning dew. This small cottage offered everything we needed but bot too fancy. The only caution is finding the driveway on the initial arrival can be a bit tricky especially on motorcycles as the winding road that leads to the cottage is not too U-turn friendly for motorcycles. Overall, awesome place and we will be back!

Cozy Cabin on the Ridge

TrishRating, 5 stars6 days ago

I’m don’t usually write reviews, but we had such an exceptional experience that I felt compelled to share. This serene cozy little cabin has unexpected personal touches everywhere you look such as the homemade jarred tea, fresh cut flowers from their garden, art deco wine glasses, a hand written personal welcome note, a curated reading selection that alone makes me want to rebook just to come back. I loved visiting their chicken coop, bee hives, and looking at all of the plants and flowers in their garden. We visited on our 30th wedding anniversary. It was the perfect get away. Thank you! We will be back.
