Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Watkinsville

We stayed a week in January 2025, and this is now our go-to first choice place to stay when visiting family in Athens. Easy, relaxing, peaceful, clean, lots of space. It made our week so much more relaxing than staying in a hotel.

Comfortable, ample and very familiar

We enjoy staying here when we visit Athens because it is close to our daughter's house and is peaceful and well kept. We are basically there for coffee and sleeping so it is perfect. Coffee and supplies are provided and it is easy to find. The bed is comfortable, but TV is in the bedroom so it isn't good if one of you is a night owl. Everything was clean and ready for us for an early check-in.

Amazing stay! The host (Jon) communicated right away that the cleaners couldn’t make it in before our arrival and helped to figure out a solution, but honestly, you’d never know—everything looked spotless and well cared for. The place was exactly like the photos, in a great location, and at a really fair price. Highly recommended and would definitely stay again!

When visiting family in the area, we like to stay in Normaltown because of the easy accessibility to restaurants and parks. If you are looking to stay in Athens this place has a great location and really comfortable floorplan for a family. We enjoyed the comfortable great room with large couches. We found the bathrooms were spacious and really nicely updated compared to others houses we've rented in this area in the past. Parking was easy and plentiful. Would book again!

We were in Athens for the SEC Swimming and Diving Championships. Go Vols! This home was recommended by a friend, who stayed last year during a swim meet. It exceeded all of our expectations. Gorgeous inside, extremely comfortable bedding, very private, top notch kitchen - a well needed break from full days at an exciting swim meet. We spent 5 nights and didn’t want to leave. About 15-18 minutes to the pool. Kelly communicated often and allowed us to check in early. By far, the best Airbnb we have stayed in. We will definitely book again when in Athens.

The host is absolutely the BEST!!!! House very clean.

Beautiful home, beautiful town, all around I would recommend staying at Beth’s place.

Great stay! Very clean space and close to everything. Clear instructions for check in and check out

My wife and I stayed here after our wedding and it was a great experience. Super clean and very organized. Jaime and Neil were great hosts!

We loved our stay! Kendra was very nice, and responded extremely quick. The place was as advertised and even more spacious in person. Everything was clean and comfortable, and the check-in/check-out instructions given were very clear. Would recommend this stay to anyone on a weekend trip!

Absolutely amazing stay, we had everything we needed and we were close enough to the square to walk. The neighborhood is spectacular. Will definitely book again!

Our stay here was great. It’s a quiet neighborhood where you can safely go for walks and very close to downtown Monroe. The space was clean and well organized. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Lorna and Willie were super nice people and Willie’s vegetable garden is worthy of a postcard, it took me back to a time when I use to help my grandparents in their garden. We will definitely stay there next year when we come back down. A special thanks to them for doing our laundry. The washing machine in the unit would not work and I told them about it on our way to the formula drift race and when we got back that night they took our clothes out of the washing machine and did them in their washing machine and folded them and put them back in our unit. Suck a blessing to have suck kind people in today’s world. I couldn’t thank them enough. Willie and Lorna you are the BEST!!!! God Bless and hope to see you next year. :)

This place exceeded our expectations. It’s better than the pictures. Best part of this place is the screened in porch surrounded by forestry. We sat out on the porch each night and had breakfast on it every morning. The place was clean and had all amenities needed for a short or long stay. We asked if she had a pack n play for our infant to stay in and it was all set up when we arrived. I kept saying all weekend how happy I was to have booked here. She was very responsive months before our stay and we had immediate responses during our stay whenever I messaged her.. This place is truly a gem.

Such a gem! So glad I found this spot. The Adirondack chairs outside the door were so peaceful to sit in while listening to the river and the birds. The studio has high ceilings which makes it feel cozy but spacious.

Nice little place! We were able to get in and find the condo easily. I missed the notification from them asking when we would arrive, they reached out via text and everything worked out seamlessly. We were unable to use the amenities in the morning, no times were posted, the fitness center said 24 hours but the doors would not open with the key card, however it was open later in the afternoon. We had everything we needed at the condo, it was a short distance to downtown as advertised, just unfortunately through a section we did not feel comfortable walking so we drove. Appreciated how clean and well maintained it was!

A great stay!! Nanda was great as far as communication and the spot was very cute and clean! We would absolutely return! :)

Our stay was perfect. The location was a short walk to campus and restaurants. The home was very clean and cozy with all necessary amenities. Thank you Sandra for a great visit. Will definitely look to stay again down the road!

Perfect location for visiting the UGA campus! Quick walk to campus. The condo was in perfect condition. I've stayed in MANY places in Athens and this was the best.

You can't stay any closer to the central part of UGA campus without staying in a dorm. In addition, Ben's place was very clean and had all the needed amenities. Strongly recommend it to others and would happily stay again.

Great location, easy access to UGA, wonderful finishing touches. Nayla was very easy to communicate with, quick to respond. She was nice enough to leave some snacks for the kids and some drinks for the adults! Definitely recommend a stay!

Hannah’s place was exactly as described! It was an easy drive downtown to lots of restaurants and shops. The beds were very comfortable, and it was the perfect place for my friends and me. Hannah was also always responsive and friendly!

Clean comfortable and a great value. We would use again if/when the situation presents itself.
