Family-friendly vacation rentals in Gainesville

Great place to stay! Felt right at home with great views. Had no issues, the host is responsive and helpful. Private and peaceful overall a great place!

My family and I recently had a very nice stay at Erica's cabin. The cabin is large and very comfortable. It fulfilled all of our needs. The cabin is located on a 2 acre wooded lot and is close to town where we enjoyed eating at several of the restaurants. Erica was a responsive host with clear instructions and helpful suggestions. We would stay here again!

Loved staying in the cabin. We really Enjoyed the outdoor deck area with the hammock, the hot tub and the fire pit!

This was a cozy cabin completely outfitted with everything you need. Best part of the stay? Sipping wine on the back deck watching sunset over the mountains. Next best? Tea in the early mornings watching the deer walk through the property. It’s very peaceful. GREAT place to recharge and relax.

We loved it, very peaceful.. we will definitely be coming back in the future.. we really enjoyed ourselves. Just a walk to town.. it was great

We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to friends. I love that the place is very private. There was plenty of room for me and my husband and our four teenagers. It was close to Helen.

The host communicated well. The home is lovely and very private while also being ideally located to enjoy everything that Helen has to offer. We enjoyed the pool table & hot tub. The location also allowed us to enjoy several wildlife sightings.

We loved our stay; we are planning already on coming back next year. the house is big and has everything you may need just like at home. On our last night the power went out and the generator kicked in right away and ran all night. We stayed in the property our entire stay, do hike the nature trail; you'll love it. Please do read the driving directions that Sharon sends.

Dawn’s place was bright and clean, and her meeting us at the door and showing us the space made us feel welcome. She took extra good care of our dog too!

The cabin was truly "off the grid", as the road to the cabin could use a bit more gravel. However, our Corolla made it up and down with no issues even through some rainy days. The tires slipped a bit and we ended up at some interesting angles at certain points, but it was entertaining. Ensure you arrive with sunlight to help you locate the address. We arrived in the evening. Greg made sure he checked in with us to make sure we arrived with no challenges, which was nice! The area is private and quiet. You are literally in the woods. We didn't see any wildlife, but got spooked by the noises a few barred owls made near us. The firepit was a great addition. Kitchen and rooms were well stocked and clean. Linen and towels smelled fresh. I did end up hearing some buzzing every time I was in the upstairs bedroom and attributed it to the tons of bees in the area, but saw no evidence of anything scary inside lol. We truly did enjoyed our time and explored all over Blue Ridge!

This was a return stay at Ande's place and it was fantastic just like the previous stay. Their place is neatly tucked away from the main road and a short walk / drive from plenty of restaurants and stores. The place itself is kept very tidy and clean, quiet and perfect for spring & summer weather enjoyment. Check in is easy and Ande is a very responsive host. 10 of 10 would recommend staying here if you're in the Athens area. Thank you, Ande!

Great place. Very clean.

Loved the place. So fun and just as described. Super walkable area! Really enjoyed the live music at habersham winery! If you’re used to ordering uber/lyft make sure you plan ahead. There aren’t a ton of drivers but you can schedule a ride and that gives you time to get ready and walk to a pick up location.

Incredibly unique experience!! The AirBNB itself was one of the cleanest we have ever stayed in. It is private set away from other structures. We loved the information left for us to learn about the history of the Mill. It is perfect for dog parents with a nice yard space and a really interesting property to take her for walks. Our favorite part was exploring the Mill!! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Very clean, comfortable, and walking distance to downtown, Clarkesville. Quiet neighborhood and a fenced-in backyard.

I enjoyed my stay at ILV and it was the getaway I needed. The views were amazing. Johnny was really thorough with his instructions on how to get up the driveway. My SUV handled it well. The cabin was clean and well stocked, and Johnny left local recommendations. I would definitely visit again.

Nice place to stay. Would stay again.

Great location! Small cozy guest house. Parking spot was tight for our large 2500 but we made it work. Recommendations were great.

Happy to stay here again and bring the kiddos this time! We spent most of the time outside enjoying the peaceful surroundings, pool and hot tub. Great location- plenty of restaurant options and nearby grocery. No complaints and hope to stay again!

Ms. Carla was a great host she went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Her apartment is exactly as described it was so beautiful. The kids loved the movie theatre. We had to stay here as our home was under construction and it was our home away from home. She was an amazing host and I would come back. I can not express enough how thankful I am for Ms. Carla.

I would have to say, without a doubt, that this was the nicest Airbnb I have ever stayed in. The unit itself was amazing and as-advertised, but what really set it apart was the immense beauty of the back yard and pool area. Don’t bother buying a ticket to the Atlanta Botanical Garden—essentially an entire botanical garden is included with your stay!! My family came into town for a wedding on a Friday. We had all day Saturday free, and spent a big chunk of it just relaxing i the back yard by the pool. Dina was a great host! Would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect location for our annual trout fishing trip.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Sandy Springs, Georgia. From the moment we arrived, the hosts were warm, welcoming, and incredibly responsive—making check-in seamless and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The rental itself was exactly as pictured online—thoughtfully designed, perfectly apportioned, and extremely comfortable. Every detail made us feel right at home. The location was equally impressive. Nestled in a cozy, quiet neighborhood, the property offered both peace and easy access to everything we wanted to do in Sandy Springs. Restaurants, shops, and local attractions were all just minutes away, making it an ideal home base for our weekend getaway. We highly recommend this stay and would gladly return!

What a delightful place to stay. Plenty of room for the seven of us. It was great having the choice of playing ping pong, billiards, and such. Hiking was close by, and we were able to see multiple falls. So beautiful and peaceful.
