Lovely cabin & grounds. Owners need to notify Expedia & other sites that due to Covid there is no breakfast. Margaret did however provide coffee & some delicious homemade muffins! Also found out that owner has not been vaccinated!!! I would like for the safety of her guests that it should be mandatory!

Thanks Jane for alerting me to the need to post about breakfast cancellation! I found the edit page and hopefully that is taken care of. I apologize for not letting you know in advance. The safety of our guests is a top priority. Our cleaning procedures now take much more time than before this virus. I make certain to follow the industry standards. Guests are welcome to converse with me anytime if they have special needs or concerns. Thanks for coming and have a great time in your travels!!

Kellie, It was a pleasure hosting you and your family. I hope your daughter has a great school experience at ABAC. Perhaps we can be of service again on one of your visits. Blessings

To me it was cluttered. The cats the mess the kitchen was not clean. My room was nice. I had an issue with the host on Tuesday she did let us check in early due to a evac order. For two nights Tues and Wed I got no sleep due to the guest that snored, even the guests mom says it was her son. What disappointed me was there was NO remedy offered by the host she knew on Tues I got no sleep. The house is nice but not organized. When we left the host was nowhere in sight her husband and granddaughter but not her RUDE

Whew! Lots of things to think about here. First - it was hurricane Dorian. Every room was full of evacuees. The clutter - GUILTY - but the grandkids come daily and they used the toys and tables for play and coloring. Even the guest's child helped with the "play". The kitchen... I DO have a black sink that shows every water spot. On hurricane days we also inherit the food, snacks, etc. that evacuees bring from their homes to keep from spoiling or to eat while here.Most of the time evacuees don't want to eat out every meal. So I allow them full use of the kitchen. As to check in early - Normal check in times are 3 PM. Prior guest had not been gone long (could have stayed as late as noon). I was still cleaning the room. This guest wanted to come in at 11 but I didn't have it ready until 12:03. Her delay was 1 hour. She said "OK. Thanks". (text message) As for the snoring - we discussed a remedy of her running her TV on a music channel. She had headphones - but her battery died. What else was I to do? Make the snoring guest (an evacuee also) leave? I would love some suggestions here! When the guest left, I had no knowledge of when she planned to leave. She had not left her room all morning or communicated with me prior to her departure. I had jumped in the shower and told my grand daughter where I was so she could tell the guests goodbye if they happened to leave before I got out. I am sorry I missed their departure. I think I missed it by one minute!! I was disappointed that the room had food crumbs on the bedding. But it is difficult in a house full of people under such circumstances. Hurricane "days" are always a challenge for both evacuees and hosts. I am happy that all my evacuees were able to go home to no damages!! My other guests seemed to not have any issues and seemed to sleep thru the snoring!

My Country Home
What an amazing place. My friend and I stayed in the cabin. It was wonderful falling asleep to frogs croaking and waking up to the sounds of ducks and a rooster. The owners were very personable and made us feel like family. The breakfast was so so good. There was a pond just outside the cabin with goats on the other side of the bridge. So cool. I would like to go back when I can stay more than one night.

Thanks Kathryn. We sure enjoyed you two. It is always so good to see friends get together!! I love that our place is ideal for that. I am ready for spring - well almost. We should have baby goats in about a month. That will be fun. Come again when you can stay longer!!

Stayed three nights here. Owner was very friendly. Room very clean, and well appointed. The bed was comfortable. They have on-demand hot water, so that is a little different, but it’s easy to manage. Parking is tight and upon my first arrival, it was a bit difficult to find exactly where to pull in. Bed and breakfast a bit of a misnomer, as there really isn’t any breakfast, but Barb, the owner did offer to fry me eggs when I was leaving one morning, but didn’t want her to go to the trouble. She’s a wonderful, friendly woman who has a great stay for a reasonable price.

What a cool place! Margaret was so nice! She had a big list of local restaurants to go to, which we did, and it was very good. 41st and Main, I believe was the name. The cabin itself is really neat. It’s very big, and the pond outside and just the whole area is just gorgeous and so relaxing! I wish we could have stayed longer than one night. Oh, and the breakfast Margaret made us was just delicious, especially the cheese and jalapeño grits!!

As first time bed and breakfast goers, Margarette, her husband Hank and the multitude of wonderful animals that surrounded the property made this trip a truly one of a kind vacation! We got the chance to experience both the cabin by the lake and the room apart of the main house, and both were comfortable, cozy and the decor was gorgeous. We are absolutely returning for another visit! Thank you for your superb hospitality, oh and let's not forget Margarette's delicious home cooking! Words really can't fully describe this amazing experience. Till next time! -Alaura and Luis

The Pond House
We stayed at the Shalom House Bed and Breakfast this past Friday and loved it. The accommodations were very comfortable & welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed waking up to the sounds of the rooster & seeing the goats grazing across the pond from us. The innkeepers were very pleasant & we will visit again on our next trip through the area!

A great stay, where we felt right at home
It was like staying with family (family you like)! Hank and Margaret made us feel right at home. We had an unintended trip after Hurricane Matthew decided to roll through, and we stayed here on our way back to Florida. We hope to be able to make a trip that will take us through Tifton again, if only so we can stay here and enjoy the home-cooked breakfast! Highly recommended.

Sweet family that runs this B & B. The wife was very helpful and accommodated my wife's dietary needs. The breakfast of baked oatmeal with lots of fruit and nuts was delicious. I highly recommend Shalom House.

Quaint small Farm Bed and Breakfast
Was looking for something other than the Normal Motel. This place hit the spot. Clean , Quiet , Peaceful and Absolutely Beautiful. You will experience the true taste of the South here. The Pond House is perfect. If you are traveling through definitely look up Margaret. You will not be disappointed. Will be back.

Perfect for the weary business traveler
Beautiful scenery, relaxation and an amazing gourmet breakfast were the best features of the Shalom House Bed and Breakfast. The owners, Margaret and Hank, were so cooperative and allowed me to arrive late (after 10 p.m.). Margaret prepared breakfast for me around 7 a.m. each morning so that I could conduct business during normal hours. I looked forward to returning each night for good conversation. I would highly recommend the Shalom House Bed and Breakfast to anyone staying in the area.
