Cozy Athens Home on the Brook

We immediately felt comfortable at this property. When we arrived there was a herd of deer in the side yard and we loved watching them in the mornings and evenings. This home had plenty of sitting areas and would nicely accommodate families with different ages. It had everything we needed for our family to spend Thanksgiving together. The heated toilet seats were always a nice addition!

The home was perfect for our large extended family to use while we came up to attend GymDogs and a basketball game. Location was safe and convenient. Home was comfortable with enough space to be together but also enough space to sleep. Host reached out to check in on us multiple times. Highly recommend.

Great location. House was very peaceful. Plenty of space. Overall very clean. Fenced in, the dog loved that.

Great house for large groups and a graduation celebration!

The house is perfect for a large family gathering. Host was excellent.

Great communication, great place for a game day weekend!

I loved the house. It is very large, and can hold a lot of people. The kitchen is very large. There are two living rooms on the main floor, which would be nice if you have a lot of people staying in the home. There is a very large fenced in back yard if you have a dog, it would be a great place to stay. If I stay there again, I'd definitely take my dog. There is a park, that has a dog park, 1.5 miles from the home, and there are sidewalks all the way to it. I know this because I am a runner and I ran down to the park each day. There are also some trails at the park that were nice to run on as well. I also noticed a very nice tennis facility nearby. The fire pit is nice, plan to bring firewood. I was not able to easily find firewood around town, so plan ahead. This house was a great find!

Host was helpful. Property clean. Lots of bed space.

Quiet and clean. We were visiting from Wisconsin. Perfect for our group of 14 adults, not cramped at all. Doug was very quick to answer any question we had.

Douglas home was nothing short from amazing! My family of 9 drove 14 hours and was pleased with the room and beds were very comfy. The house was very spacious we didn’t feel stacked on top of one another but yet the family rooms and the basement made us all feel together. Our best part was the patio we played cards and had drinks. The creek and the woods behind the home gave us a nature feel and a privacy vibe to spend the alone time together. The home was just 6 mins away from everything we needed. Groceries, gas, and etc. The house was clean and very accommodating. I will definitely stay again! 10/10 recommend!

We rented this home for December and May graduations. Plenty of space for our family to spread out. Lots of pillows and blankets available. Plenty of basics provided. Had everything we needed.

This home was perfect for our family's stay in Athens. The interior layout is spacious and very thoughtfully appointed, with both beautiful and comfortable furnishings. The large kitchen has tons of counter space. It's perfect for both the chef and others to gather. The upstairs bedrooms are comfortable and quiet. The house is set back from the street on a very private lot with a fenced backyard, where our dog could run.

We (4 adults) stayed at the house when we attended the Masters practice round.The house was a good size for the four of us and had everything we needed. We also played golf at one the local courses (The Chimneys) while we were there.

Had a wonderful time at this cozy home. The property owners were so helpful throughout the whole trip. I would highly recommend this home to any and everyone who is looking to stay, I will definitely stay there again whenever I’m in Athens. Thank you Doug . 5

Our family has celebrated special events here twice now and it is the perfect property for the 14 of us. Quiet and peaceful with plenty of indoor and outdoor space for everyone. It is easy to check in and out and host is responsive. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing Christmas stay! The house was perfect—spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our entire family and beautifully appointed. It truly made our holiday special. Highly recommend!

Everything was set up to help our stay be enjoyable. The fenced back yard was great for our pets. The heated toilet seats a plus. TVs in every room. Plenty of blankets and pillows. The home was very clean. The wild life was wonderful including deer hawk cardinals. We were close to shopping food restaurants. We had a very pkeasant stay!! Thank you.

Couldn’t have asked for a better home or host! Doug was a 5 star host from booking through checkout. In fact, he even went out of his way to drop off jumper cables for my rental car’s dead battery. That’s going above and beyond. The house itself was just perfect for what my group of friends needed. Spacious, clean, and cozy. The drive into DT Athens wasn’t bad at all. Ubers were always available within 10 minutes too. The setting was perfect for a Deep South experience, nestled in the woods with a running creek to enjoy your morning coffee to. Thanks again Doug.

Lovely Home, with all of the supplies needed for a pleasant stay. Very clean, and GREAT communication with the owner

Great host and great accommodations. Location close to UGA and grocery stores, restaurants, and the like. Awesome experience and would definitely stay here again.

I had the honor and pleasure of staying here for the last four months for work. It was such an amazing place to come home to after a long, hard day. You can hear the brook 24 hours a day, especially from the screened porch off the kitchen. Watch the dear eating from the bay window in the front. It is pure magic. Doug was an amazing host who addressed any any all my needs. He was reachable and kind and attentive. The area was peaceful and still close to town, best of both worlds. I could go on for days. Don't stay here, I'm afraid the house will be booked for the next time I'm in town. 10/10. Thanks Doug!
