Historic charmer in prime Marietta location

Large, comfortable historic home within walking distance of many Marietta treasures and restaurants. Comfortable beds, spacious rooms, and functional bathrooms made for a delightful stay. Kitchen is small and a bit awkward but workable. We would definitely stay again!

This is a wonderful, large, old house just a block from downtown Marietta and is also close to Marietta College and the city's historic district. The interior is incredibly spacious with amazing woodwork and other details throughout, and the furniture and bedding are very comfortable. One thing to note is that if you plan to cook (which we did not), the kitchen is somewhat limited. But in every other respect, it's just a perfect place, and we plan to return.

Perfect Stay!

I could not have found a more perfect property in which to stay. The house is simply beautiful and the location cannot be beat! We spent many mornings and evenings on the large porch overlooking the gazebo and river in the distance. The house and owners provided everything we needed and could've wanted, the beds and sitting areas were comfortable and the main part of town was so close. I can't wait to return!

Girls Getaway to Marietta

The house was great. Very roomy and comfortable for our group of 6. Loved sitting on the porch and enjoying the great weather. Took a walking tour of Marietta and visited quite a few great sites. Lots of shopping and dining options within walking distance of the house. We even got to watch homecoming in the park across the street as the students gathered for pictures.
