This spot was absolutely perfect for our stay. Nice little spot to stay in south GA. I expect to be back to the area another time or 2 soon, and I’ll definitely book here again. My wife wished we had been able to stay a little longer.

This home exceeded our expectations! Michelle and Dan are amazing hosts and felt like old friends. The home is quite interesting with a deep history. Super clean, lot of room with a very comfortable bed. The owners’ passion for preserving its history is very apparent. Very very beautiful grounds. We will be back!

Michelle went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of. As a more traditional BnB it was nice having breakfast available both mornings. We appreciated the history and passion Michelle has to preserve this site. If ever in need of a place to stay in South GA this is the place. Thank you!
