Peaceful Country Home w/Covered Bridge

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (15)
"This is my second time staying at this location and I fall in love each time. Cool breezy mornings, fresh air and stunning sunsets were a part of my stay daily. For those who like to exercise, the long country road is serene and safe (2 or 3 cars came through on my 1 hour walk). The accommodations fulfill every need. If only for 1 night, I suggest you stay here, and I guarantee; you will rebook. Thank you to the owners for the hospitality and conversations. 5-stars."

"We loved our stay here, I just wish we’d had a longer trip. The house is spacious and gorgeous, beds are comfy, the house was clean, kitchen was well-equipped, and pet-friendly. Super easy to find and such a pretty drive getting there from Atlanta. The flowers and yard likewise beautiful, with daisies, pineapple sage, and mums (I think they were mums) in the front, and a picnic table too! The views are breathtaking and hands down our favorite things were the screened in porch and deck. Y’all....

Cozy Container Home Retreat: A Stylish Haven for Urban Explorers

6.8 out of 10, (6)
"I enjoyed the feel of the container home, and the area was quiet and respectful of privacy even with so many people around. It was an easy location to find, and the container home was clean, neat and set up well. There were some minor maintenance problems that were inconvenient, but the concierge over text was very polite and reactive even though repairs could not be made in the time of my stay. Overall, a nice place to rest while I spent time in the area."

We were worried about it being a quad apartment but we never heard our neighbors and the family downstairs never heard us. The community was quiet when we were there and it is close to everything you need. Aldi and Walmart are just down the street and everything else is right up the main road. The hosts were great and did an amazing job with this unit."

The Tiny House was amazing and had everything I could need or ask for. SUPER CLEAN and just a fun experience. Close to town for restuarants - yet far enough you feel like you can rest and relax.
