Absolutely Perfect!

We enjoyed our stay here. It fits in the top 3 of the best VRBO ever and we travel a lot. The owners have really thought everything through with this rental and the things needed while staying. We came here to tube down the river and it was so close the the put in and very convenient. Thank you so much for a wonderful relaxing weekend!!

Great house for our bridal party

Super clean, cute house with beds/room for all of the ladies in our bridal party. Lots of added items included and much appreciated, like snacks, coffee pods, and even fresh cream for the coffee! We did have a little bit of trouble locking up with the electronic lock, but that might have been more of a user error. Otherwise it was a fantastic day, and I highly recommend.

Beautiful Country Get away not far from Athens, GA

The HT Martin store is beautifully decorated and designed. I rented it with family and friends for a football weekend at UGA and we had the best time staying at the house. There is plenty of space for people to hang out and talk. We enjoyed sitting out by the firepit one night as well. The owners are very responsive and helpful. The only minor issue is the door lock. They mention it can be a little tricky and that is the truth. We will definitely book it again when we plan a trip to Athens in the future.

Cute, clean, comfortable

The owners have done a great job turning this old country store into a comfortable, well decorated VBRO. We visit family close by for Thanksgiving. This is our 2nd stay. The owner leaves coffee pods and creamer and other thoughtful touches. The living area is very comfortable for the 8 people staying.

Just an overall great experience. I was very impressed with the way they had renovated an old store and turn it into a house with all the new house pleasures. Thanks again for letting us stay.

Such a great place for 8 adults to enjoy while visiting family!

Michelle responded to all of our questions quickly. The ‘store’ is newly remodeled, clean, and we’ll-stocked. The living area is big and furnished comfortably for 8-10 adults to enjoy.

Football Weekend

What a unique property. We stayed here for a football weekend in Athens, but found the property to be quaint and charming. Wish we could have spent more time enjoying it, but it was perfect for our needs. Michelle has thought of everything. We plan to return on future trips and will block out more time to enjoy this one of a kind VRBO.

The General Store -- Home Away from Home

This property has served our men well for the four (4) months that they have stayed there. Our guys are a construction crew of four (4) men working on a jobsite 30 miles away. The General Store is a welcomed alternative to our men going to a hotel room every night.

Ongoing Stay at the Country Store

We have had a crew of men staying at the Country Store since the first of September. The experience has been the same since the start ... very nice place to stay and the communication with the owner has been excellent. The Country Store has provided our men an alternate place to stay instead of a routine hotel room. It gives them a nice place to rest and relax after a hard day at work.

General Store

Our guys really enjoyed staying at the General Store. We are working on a job in Commerce, GA and wanted to have a place for our guys to live rather than a motel or hotel.
