Casablanca - Walk downtown
Had a great stay at Nicolas's place! We were in Athens for our daughter's graduation and it worked out perfectly. Everything was so clean and comfortable, and matched the listing exactly. Nicolas was so friendly and very responsive, we'd love to stay again! Thank you!

The Aspen; private suite in the Carriage House
Booked this very last minute for a work trip! Was just like the pictures it made me wish I had more time to stay in the area. I could tell it was close to the park and would be a great location if you want to explore downtown.

Great 1 BR house in Normaltown
Thank you so much to Juana for hosting us in Athens for our daughter’s graduation. Her cottage is so cute and is in a very peaceful location, still very close to the stadium, restaurants and downtown. Both the bed and the cot were very comfortable. I would definitely pick this location again for our next trip. 😊

Charming 1BR Intown (Normaltown) Guest Cottage
This was my second stay at this lovely cottage, and once again, it didn’t disappoint. The space is cozy, clean, and thoughtfully set up with all the amenities you need to feel right at home. Fresh linens and towels were provided, and the separate bedroom from the main living area gave it a nice sense of space and privacy. The kitchenette and dining table made it easy to enjoy meals in, and everything was well maintained and spotless. The location is ideal—central and just a short distance from the UGA campus. The owner greeted me upon arrival, which added a personal and welcoming touch. I’d definitely stay here again!

Rad Boulevard guesthouse near downtown
Wonderful spot for an Athens visit! Great for parents weekend. We even got to cook a meal for our college daughter and her boyfriend, which was a gift. A great location, walkable to all our needs and a great roost for two for a quick visit. Much more comfortable than a hotel and all we needed!

Relaxing Farm Home LLC
The location was very convenient and the description matched the accommodations perfectly. I would definitely stay here again!

Studio in the heart of Athens!
Lee’s place was perfect! We needed a place to spend the night for our daughter’s graduation. This was exactly what we needed. Would definitely recommend it if all you need is an over night stay for 2 people.

Classic City Cottage
Great place to stay - met all of our needs and then some. Perfect for a night before the Georgia G Day scrimmage game. Host was super helpful and responsive.

Gaga’s Getaway
Guest House was perfect! Easy in and easy out. We were only there for sleeping, but if you’ll be there during the day do note that there’s a pool right outside the door. We have a toddler so we just were super vigilant when we were coming and going. House is roomy and clean!

Walkable 5 Points, Quiet, Kitchenette, wifi
We really appreciated Jim & Susan’s hospitality! This was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Would definitely stay again!

Private Apt! A Splash of Color
We enjoyed our time here, beautiful surrounding neighborhood. Quiet- we were the loud ones (sorry).

Families welcome to the Classic City
it was a very nice place to stay. Michael is a great host. it was a last minute booking and we surprised him when we showed up. we loved getting visits from his dog.

10 Minutes from UGA and Piedmont Hospital - QUIET
Heidi's place was perfect. It is close to town and to shopping. So peaceful! Very comfortable and cute space. We would definitely stay again.

5 Points Carriage House
Just as described and very clean. Great location!

Private Guesthome in Quiet Oxford, GA Neighborhood
Treva’s home was exactly as I expected. It was quiet, cozy, clean, comfortable, and beautiful. I am so thankful I was able to stay in this space. I felt right at home and safe in the neighborhood and never had to worry about noise. As a random side note, whatever curtains she uses in the bedrooms are superior to any I’ve seen to keep sunlight out. Every morning when my alarm went off I would have thought it was still night time until I opened them. It’s so hard to find a space that is dark enough at night/early morning for me and I am so appreciative of the efforts she’s made to keep the space comfortable for relaxing and sleeping. I hope to stay again if she will have me!

Guesthouse-Historic District New Construction
Sarah Jane was a great hostess. We were in town for our son's UGA graduation and could not have asked for a better experience. This is an exquisite historic property. The outside seating/gathering space was amazing and overlooked the pool and manicured grounds. Thank you Sarah Jane!

Peaceful Guesthouse on 15 Acres with Pool
I have stayed at many Airbnb’s, but this might be my favorite. Not only was it so peaceful, roomy, and priced reasonably, but the salt water pool was the icing on the cake for this swimmer! And the hosts were so kind to help me in and out with my luggage and even sprayed my car off before I departed!

Green Acres Terrace
Extremely clean and updated living area. Host was extremely responsive and friendly. 10/10 would book again.

Spacious King Suite- Mins from Downtown
Carnita’s place was wonderful. It was nice and cozy and very clean and comfortable. I was in love with the standing shower and decor! The smell of the bedding and pillows was amazing! Only downfall is of neighbors multiple dogs constant barking while you’re coming and going, didn’t really hear them any other time. I understand this isn’t Carnita issue so I’m not blaming, the place was great! We would stay again!

The Coop at Winterwood Farm
LOVED The Coop! With two girls at UGA, I’ve booked many overnight stays in and around Athens. Sherre’s place is my new favorite! The Coop is so beautifully decorated and it’s surroundings so peaceful. We were greeted by chickens and Teddy, Sherre’s handsome cat. You’re going to love it, too. Especially, the porch! The Coop is the place for you, if you enjoy friendly hosts, homemade banana bread with chocolate chips, bright & happy decorated spaces, and pure tranquility. Can’t wait to return!

Harmony Hideaway
I enjoy my stay here so much. This place is an absolute gem. Always so welcoming and homey feeling. Thank you again for hosting!
