I always stay where I visiting family in a neighboring city. It's in downtown Valdosta. Super quaint and convenient. The restoration is really nice. I like the antiquetious feel. You should give it a try. I do warn you that the property sits on a major highway. But it's a highway thru a small-town-downtown square.

Everything was contact-less. It was very easy to navigate like an air b&b. I absolutely love the concept. The room was beautiful and I loved the stand alone tub. I’m definitely coming back.

Best Place to stay in Valdosta - drive a few minutes off the interstate and get a much better experience than the chains. Clean, Spacious, Safe, Easy Check-in/Check-out, easy parking, great coffee shop on the first floor and nice restaurants within a few blocks in the quaint and historic downtown - STAY HERE!!

Very nice place. It was quiet and relaxing. Channel is nice size so you see a wide range of boats going by. We liked that it had a pier close by.
