Amazing Addis Acres
This cottage was impeccable...the entire experience from start to finish. It far exceeded all of our expectations. So much so that we cannot wait to return and gather for more family time. The accommodations were so lovely and the personal touches provided by the host...fresh flowers...cookies...and all the extra supplies...sure warmed this mama's heart ❤️. My children hopped into the kayaks, on the paddle boards...and fished all day. They had a blast! I would recommend this rental to anyone and everyone. I wish we could give you more than 5 stars! You get 10!

Excellent property!
This is a lovely home that is well equipped and, well, just perfect. Tranquil setting, room for everyone. We had a perfect weekend and plan to come again. The owner was delightful. We came for a wedding at Mystic Acres, but will come again just to enjoy our family and this home!

Excellent Stay!
In town for a 2 day conference at the UGA Campus with our team. Property description is spot on. Very clean and relaxing. Great place to unwind after a long day. Sunrises on the front porch were amazing.
