Neighborhood highlights

Augusta is an adorable River Town, rich in History & a bit lost in time. It is a modern day Mayberry of sorts with quite the eclectic mix of artistic residents and visitors from all over the country. The quaint little shops and dining on Main Street give for great opportunities to meet locals. Riverside Drive is a beautiful walk to see Historic Homes, stretch your legs & take amazing pictures. The Ferry will take you to Ohio if you wish to explore Underground Railroad sites or desire a drink on the water at one of their River Front or floating restaurants. We are 1 building from the Augusta Beehive Tavern & The Augusta Pub, Directly across from The Augusta General Store & Carota's Pizza.
