It is such an amazing house with lots of personality. We especially loved all of the TVs so we were able to watch every game on simultaneously. The porch and yard are perfect for Athens's great weather. We even had a visit by a Mama Deer and a doe. We will definitely return.
Communication was very poor. We never received a confirmation email. Check in was difficult without the code. Didnât get Wi-Fi info until Saturday night. Political signs at a place to rent is inappropriate. Parking was very difficult and we had to keep moving our cars so the caretaker who lives on site could leave
We know this area of town well and find it great for walking for exercise and to downtown/campus. We were in town for a family wedding and had a toddler plus 30 something children and two grandparents at the house. The house is historic and spacious. It is decorated in a college bulldog theme of game day and kind of man cave (note photos). Everything worked correctly. The on site caretaker was polite in passing. There is room for roughly 4 cars parked double in the driveway as we all brought a car. There are plenty of towels and kitchen glasses/plates. Nothing fancy about this house, but a fun place to gather with a back yard that could be fun for children. Our toddler grandson enjoyed swing on front porch watching pedestrians and cars go by.
Great house for large group, but needs a deep cleaning
The Dawg House has such wonderful UGA vibes, sleeps many and is a great space. It is such a great location, close to the stadium and was perfect for our daughters graduation with our extended family!
On the down side, the house is very dirty!! Cobwebs, dirty baseboards, dusty floors, under bed dead (and alive) cockroaches and other bugs.
We had our grandchildren with us and could not let the 8 month olds crawl on the floors!!
The kitchen and bathrooms were clean except for under the tub, sinks, hampers and corners. Towels and sheets seemed clean, but bedskirts were heavily dusty.
Well equipped, but also needs someone to clean out/organize cupboards and cabinets. It is obvious that groups leave a lot of "stuff/memorobilia" that should probably be gotten rid of or at least organized.
I feel very strongly that if the house receives a VERY good, professional deep cleaning and that cleaning is kept up with we could give the rental a higher rating.
If I were a prospective renter and dirty spaces bother you, I would definitely check to see if this cleaning has occurred before renting this house. it has such potential!!!
We were in town with our family and another family stayed with us a well. The location was perfect for walking to campus and showing our kids everything we loved about UGA and the town of Athens!

UGA Workshop stay
Great place as a party house. Worked fine for us. Communication was a little spotty with host, but we also did check in the day ATT was out of service.
We were in need a place for our school group in Athens for the weekend. We needed a way to split the guys and girls and give each their own space. The house was really almost perfect - with one small exception. We really needed 2 bathrooms for each group but one of the baths is actually in the twin bedroom - meaning it's in the open area. So, there's really only 3 baths. Other than that the house had everything. Clean! organized! Fun! The students loved it.
