Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
Five Points Charmer is a private, single-level 3-bedroom cottage in Athens’ pedestrian-friendly Five Points neighborhood. It’s designed for full-home stays with keypad entry and a quiet residential setting that still puts dining, pubs, and shops within an easy stroll. The home includes a fireplace, but guests are asked not to use it.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The cottage sleeps guests across three spacious bedrooms: two with queen beds and a primary bedroom with a king bed. The primary suite sits at the back of the house in a split-bedroom layout and includes an en suite bath with dual sinks and a tiled shower. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bathroom, and each bedroom has a ceiling fan and closet space.
Kitchen, Tech & Everyday Comforts
A full kitchen supports longer stays with an electric stove/oven, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker, and essential cookware. For downtime, the living area includes a 55" Smart TV, cable TV, and free Wi‑Fi, plus a dining table for four. Practical amenities include air conditioning, heating, a washer, and an ironing board.
Outdoor Space
Outdoors, the property highlights a dedicated fire-pit area with dining tables and an outdoor grill for relaxed meals and evening hangouts. Guests also have free parking with a spacious driveway, a feature frequently appreciated for convenience.
Location & Nearby Highlights
The home is about 1.5 miles from the University of Georgia and Sanford Stadium and roughly 2 miles from downtown Athens and the Georgia Theatre, making it convenient for game days, campus visits, and live music. Dining options nearby include The Local 706, The Expat, The Royal Peasant, Marker Seven Coastal Grill, and Fully Loaded Pizza Kitchen. Public transit is close by at S Lumpkin St at West Lake Dr OB (about 69 m away).
Best for
This cottage is best for groups and couples who want a full-home setup near UGA—especially for football weekends, concerts at the Georgia Theatre, or campus visits—without staying directly downtown. It also suits travelers who value easy logistics, thanks to keypad check-in, free driveway parking, and a full kitchen and laundry for longer stays.
Travel tips
If you plan to explore downtown Athens or attend a UGA event, rideshares (Uber/Lyft) are noted as readily available, and the home is roughly 1.5–2 miles from key venues like Sanford Stadium and the Georgia Theatre. For bus access, the S Lumpkin St at West Lake Dr OB stop is only about 69 meters away. Note that while the house has a fireplace, guests are asked not to use it—plan to enjoy the outdoor fire-pit area instead.
