River romance apartment on the river !

VerlinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
One dedicated parking space right next to entrance. Visitor parking spot for second car is a hit and miss as there is only 4 spots that is shared with 12 to 16 units. Once we got a spot we did not use that vehicle in case there wasn’t a spot available later. Otherwise an OUTSTANDING place. Spacious living area, bedrooms and bathrooms. The decks were also awesome to relax and view the river as it passed by. Definitely would use this place again.

Gateway by the Brave’s-Free parking/-Spacious-cozy

MeredithRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place was perfect for us! We had a concert to attend at the Coca Cola Roxy and this home was an easy 6 minute walk to the venue! They left very clear instructions (that I may have overlooked for some information) but were very friendly when I messaged them for clarification. Their response time is the best I’ve ever experienced on AirBnB. Mostly getting back to us in under 20 minutes. The place was well kept and had plenty of glasses and kitchen equipment if needed. We didn’t get a chance to visit the lake behind the place since it rained most of the time we stayed but it was stunning enough that we were able to keep the curtains drawn to enjoy the view. For the most part the neighborhood was quiet and made it a wonderful stay. When we make it back out to Atlanta this place will be first on my list!!

The Hooch Hideaway

SharleneRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This Airbnb was situated right on top of a cute cafe and overlooking the river; very beautiful. It really made us feel like we weren't even in Georgia! There's music playing at the restaurants almost every night but despite this you cant hear it in the Airbnb! Very cute town with very nice people.

Club Cozy 2bd 2bath near The Battery/Braves!

CarolRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Kyara was a very friendly and responsive host! Even before we arrived, she responded to our questions and inquiries. The space was very clean and inviting…and also safe and secure, which was important to our group of three senior ladies. Check in and check out were easy. Very few requests upon checkout, which was nice. Hand soap and dishwashing soap are provided, but guests may want to bring their own bath soap, laundry soap, and dryer sheets. Apparently, some folks like to bring their own supplies of these things due to allergies, and personal preferences. Air B & Bs are different in what they consider standard supplies. (Kyara did bring us soap and body wash when we requested it, which we appreciated!) We had an emergency while we were in town and Kyara was more than helpful in offering assistance to help us get it resolved. She is an excellent host and will make you feel quite welcome! We would recommend the Club Cozy to friends and would stay here again!

Modern pet friendly waterfront home w/dock

PeterRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Very nice house on Lake Lanier. Basically everything in the house is updated and has everything you need. Short walk (a couple of minutes) down to the dock. Stayed with our 7 month old and 2 dogs and all were happy. Would stay again next time we come to the area.

Canada Cottage/Sauna Cold Plunge Firepit Fishing

SandiRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Cute and cozy cottage! Host was exceptionally responsive which was greatly appreciated as we had a little difficulty finding the driveway. Would definitely return!. It is important to be aware that the wall between the bedrooms does not go all the way up, so the bedrooms are not private although this was not a huge issue for us.

Lake view, great sunset view off dock, 3 bedrooms

ShylaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
I cannot say enough great things about this property. We arrived to the most beautiful house in a location that was utterly perfect! This home has absolutely everything you would need, essentially just show up with food and clothes! The beds were all VERY comfortable, soft linens, plenty of pillows and well put together. The living areas were cozy & comfortable. Games, items to enjoy the lake, outdoor areas, fire-it for s'mores were all a bonus. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely every thing you would need. The countertop icemaker was my daughters favorite feature! Our kids enjoyed the kayaks, paddleboards and floats. We enjoyed a glass of wine while watching them! Easy communication & great host. You could not ask for a better house! Thank you for the best stay! We will definitely be back!

Bulldog Bungalo 5 star Flat

DirkRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We had a fantastic stay at this beautifully decorated 2-bedroom condo near Athens and UGA! The space was spotless and thoughtfully arranged, with stylish furnishings and all the comforts of home. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were very comfortable, and we appreciated the little touches like extra towels and fast Wi-Fi. The location couldn’t be more convenient—just a short drive to downtown Athens and the UGA campus, but in a quiet, safe area that made it easy to relax after a day out. Check-in was seamless, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout. We’d absolutely stay here again!

This was our second stay at Billy’s beautiful cabin in Suches. It was again amazing. We had a wonderful time fishing and exploring downtown Blue Ridge. Even caught and cooked two beautiful rainbow trout for dinner in the river right behind the cabin. Morning breakfast on the back porch was heavenly. Recommend this place highly!

Happy on the river 2 master suites

TiffanyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This spot was amazing to stay in and we would absolutely visit again. Close enough to downtown to have fun but far enough away that you felt like you had a private space in the woods. The upstairs swing was pure bliss with a cozy, fluffy blanket on a brisk morning. The only real issue we ran into during our stay was with parking. The garage only fits 2 cars comfortably and we had 3. The person with the most reliable E brake gets the hill! Also, bring your own toiletries. They weren't provided and the local store is a little pricey.
