If you, like me, really dislike staying in a cold, impersonal hotel room and are feeling adventurous, you may want to explore the world of Bed & Breakfast (B&B) Locations in and around Athens, Georgia when you come to visit or shop for real estate in Athens, GA.

Here are some of the Bed & Breakfast locations in and around Athens, Georgia:

Grand Oaks Bed & Breakfast, formerly know as the Nicholson House is a an 1820's Historic Inn about 5 miles from downtown Athens, GA.  "Located on 34 splendid acres and well off the road, the rocking chairson the verandah beckon you to relax and unwind with the sights and sounds of nature. The grounds boast springs with a nature walk through the majestic forest, a secluded lake, and vast rolling fields. Congenial deer and wildlife abound. Don't miss the evening deer feeding! Magnolia, azalea, pecan, dogwood, oak, walnut, and crape myrtle trees are only a sample of the vegetation that envelops the Inn. This unique and serene environment is a peaceful haven from everyday life."

The Magnolia Terrace Guesthouse is located in downtown Athens, GA.  One of my relocating clients recently stayed with them and just loved it!  "Built in 1912 by cotton broker James M. Rogers, Magnolia Terrace Guest House was completely restored in 1994. Breakfast in the dining room, may include fresh-baked mango bread, fruit and yogurt parfaits, bacon-cheddar muffins, and a hot entree.
