Went here for a special weekend. Wow. Dinner (costs extra) was exquisite. Breakfast was stunning The owners treat you like family.... Not the family you Dread going too but the one you cannot wait to see again. This is an absolutely stunning old house that has been remodeled to exceed anything charging twice as much. The owners just cannot be more accommodating. The rooms are perfectly decorated and roomy and comfortable. The bed was perfect the bathrooms are unbelievable. Good water pressure, quiet and realizing

Gillen House B&B was an excellent choice for attending our Son’s Graduation. Edward and Cynzia are delightful hosts and have thought of every detail to maje our stay wonderful. There beautiful home is very comfortable and spacious and the grounds are breathtaking. Our accommodations were very comfortable and peaceful. We have already made another reservation for the fall and as soon as next years reservations open up we will book again.

What a fantastic B & B. Edward and Cynzia are your hosts and you feel right at home as soon as you arrive. They greet you and give you a tour of their beautiful property. The home is gorgeous filled with period pieces and Cynzia’s art (some is for sale, by the way). Only four rooms and each has its own bath. The gardens are a show piece with flowers, open spaces and their own vegetable garden. They are in the midst of renovating a barn on the property to complement events held on the property. Edward’s culinary ski;s are outstanding: breakfast is very nice but, by reservation, he will also serve you an outstanding dinner for a modest cost. Convenient to Athens (30 to 45 minutes away) depending on where you might be going). It is an understatement to say we enjoyed our stay and enthusiastically recommend The Gillen House.

Not much to add that hasn't been said already. Edward and Cynzia are amazing hosts. Our stay was the result of my father-in-laws passing. Edward and Cynzia couldn't have been more caring, compassionate and patient with us as we navigated through this difficult time. The food was delicious and filling We experienced both a dinner as well as multiple breakfasts. The house and grounds are beautiful and clean. We look forward to staying here again.

Our room was beautifully decorated and had a very comfortable bed. Shower pressure and Wifi were strong! Edward gave us a tour of his beautiful property and shared the history and told us stories about the amazing artwork. Breakfast was delicious. A truly unique and charming experience in a peaceful setting, I highly recommend!

Edward and Cynzia truly made us feel at home like we were staying with family. The room was large, comfortable, and quiet. The breakfast was amazing! It was a beautiful home to explore, inside and out. The gardens were meticulously maintained, and interior looked brand new. Thank you both so very much!

We celebrated our anniversary here. Our host Cynzia and Edward, the Innkeepers were extraordinary host! By the time we departed we felt like good friends. The property is gorgeous and the grounds are well kept! The breakfast was great! If you want some quiet time this is your spot. Athens,Ga is only 30 minutes away with Botanical Gardens and an Art Museum.

We detoured on our way home in order to stay with Edward and Cynzia again. they are wonderful hosts and their B&B one of the best. the entire property is immaculate - sitting outside near the goldfish pond is so restful and the upstairs porch a treat. no need to schlep elsewhere for dinner - Edward is a terrific cook - highly recommend his shrimp and grits. every detail of their B&B is well thought out. we look forward to another stay!
