Family-friendly vacation rentals in Downtown Athens

Great place to stay for a UGA home game. Big front lawn, fire pit, jacuzzi, comfortable interior, and walking distance from the stadium.

The best BnB we have ever stayed in. Everything was extremely lovingly furnished and the entire house was really impressive. We had a wonderful time and contact with the landlords was always easy. The pictures in the ad do not reflect the true beauty of the property. Simply outstanding. We'd love to come back.

House was wonderful and exactly as described! Perfect for a group, with lots of space to hang out. Thank you to Jessica for being a gracious and communicative host!

Our family had a great time in the peaceful setting of Down at the Farm. We enjoyed fishing in the pond and relaxing in and around the pool. The host was very friendly and welcoming. A great place to create family memories.

This was an amazing experience. I started communicating with John 13 months before my sons wedding to stay there plus host a large rehearsal dinner. ( it grew to 80 people!). John allowed - welcomed me- to come see the property to check out the layout for what I needed giving my caterer information and planning for our stay. I needed to move furniture and a few other things and when I asked John if it was ok, his reply was, “it’s your house”, and I truly felt that way. It was comfortable and allowed for my family to stay and as we had a few revolving guests, John provided extra linens. The rehearsal dinner was on a hot August night and I had told folks to bring a bathing suit. Several of the bridal party and friends jumped in! The animals were fun and when a few of the kitties jumped in the car when we were leaving we were tempted to steal them! Our caterer for that dinner and a farewell brunch lived the set up of this place as well. I honestly cannot recommend it enough! Thanks John!

This place is a hidden gem, close to all of Athens and not far from Augusta. Wingate is a great host, very responsive and has an amazing background as a photographer. Our kids loved the donkeys, the fish pond, and running around the property. The property has a grill, fire pit, disc golf, corn hole and various sports equipment. We loved our stay and hope to be back for a UGA/A&M game one day!

We loved the house. It had everything we wanted, but they hot tub was the icing on the cake!

Really fit what we needed. Hosts introduced themselves on arrival and even graciously offered to mail a couple articles of clothing back to me I'd forgotten in a closet. For future guests, since it is in the back of the main house, can take a second to confirm you're at the right address. The place is simple (for example, no oven or stove but does have a hot plate/griddle) as listed. It is only 20-30 minutes to walk to lots of various shops and restaurants so while the house itself is in a neighborhood, close enough to walk to things and don't have to get in a car. As long as you're not heading south, which hits the main road pretty quickly, they are all pretty nice walks to places.

We had a great stay. Perfect location off the beaten path but still close to all that Athens had to offer. Perfect little get away for our family of four and the pup to catch a game at Sanford Stadium.

We had a great time staying at Andy’s Airbnb. He responded quickly to any message and the place was exactly as described. It is a great location and was very easy for us to find our way around. Thank you Andy. If I ever need a reason to stay in Athens again, I will reach out to you first.

A cozy, nicely decorated private room and bathroom located just steps away from off-street parking. The small bedroom is well equipped. We were pleased with the location in a quiet neighborhood very near Dudley Park and just a short drive from UGA and the downtown area.

The house and the property were great! It was peaceful and spacious. Jamaica was attentive and communicative throughout the rental. Would recommend.

Great place to share with a small group, close to downtown.

This was an amazing location. We we're at an event at UGA, and this location was at best a 5 minute drive there. There is a great shopping center right around the corner. We had our kids with us (12, 10, 8) and all the places we wanted to look okay we're within a 15 minutes drive. Jon was a great host, and was great to work with on the arrangements. I highly recommend this property.

We had a wonderful time at Gwyneth's airbnb. It was exactly as she described. Will definitely stay there again if ever in Athens! Thank you!!!

Great location near UGA Classic Center. Also close to greenway for walking/biking. Very clean. Loved the TVs/streaming apps with logins and appreciated the power strips throughout for easy charging.

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was spacious and very comfortable- I wish the weather was warm enough to take advantage of the beautiful balcony! Definitely loved that the complex was right next to the Greenway, a walkable path next to the river. Walkable to campus and downtown. Windy was super easy to work with- very responsive when we had plans change at the last minute. I'm looking forward to staying with Windy next time I'm in Athens.

We had an amazing stay! House is beautiful and so cozy. We had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We especially loved the porch area with the fireplace and tv. Amazing outdoor retreat. All of the beds were super comfortable. And located in the best area in Athens. Gorgeous neighborhood! Thanks for everything!

We had an amazing stay! Nelson was very responsive and great with local recommendations. You can’t beat the location - within walking distance to downtown Athens. We had everything we needed during our stay. We would absolutely recommend staying here!

Kay was a great host. Place was clean, comfortable, roomy, and well appointed. Close to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping. We came in for a Georgia football game and found the location to be convenient to Athens. Look forward to future stays. Highly recommend!

We came up for our daughter’s graduation and felt right at home. Very spacious and clean. Beds were very comfortable. Easy to get to all of our events for the weekend.

Very quiet and peaceful cottage. Would be a great place for a family to stay. Loved seeing all the farm animals and the dogs there. We had a relaxing time here.

Only minutes away from Athens via scenic country roads. Easy access. Presumably the pool house of the host but felt private and actually never saw anyone else. Was a fall visit so didn’t use the pool though pool area looked fun.
