Traveling with a dog can be stressful and we appreciated the sanctuary that this house provided. We came to Athens for the SEC swimming conference championships.We were thankful to have comfortable beds and a place to hang out during a busy week.

Utterly charming

We had such a great time staying in this delightful house. The host was very nice and responsive, and the check in/check out process was a breeze. Best of all were the many dog friendly features; from the hand made dog biscuits to the crate, dog bed, and fenced yard, our pup was as comfortable and as well treated as we were. We will definitely be back!

Lovely stay in the Eclectic Bungalow

We enjoyed our stay! The house has everything you and your dog needs. Perfect for us because the king bed was comfortable and the coffee was provided. We walked the neighborhood one morning and enjoyed looking at the variety of historic houses. Very easy drive to downtown. I think we could've easily walked if we wanted to.

About the host

Host profile image
John and I have called Athens home since 1991. We have owned this house for over 25 years and we love it and the neighborhood. Walking to Normaltown for coffee or lunch or up Prince Ave for groceries at Daily Co-op is our favorite family activity on the weekends.

Why they chose this property

Being close to everything is the best part of this neighborhood. Head in any direction from our house with your dog and you will experience a pleasant walk and see beautiful and historical homes all around you.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy your stay!
