Great Location and perfect for a group!

This is a neat old house with a ton of rooms and sleeping spaces. We had a group of 9 girls and had plenty of room to spread out. There is a golf cart provided that was perfect to use to travel to and from downtown. We had the best time here and would definitely stay again.

Absolutely recommend!

This place is beautiful, house was very clean when we arrived, the owner, Teresa was so wonderful and fun, so easy to get along with. We came down for a bachelorette party and the house was perfect for it. Jefferson is so cozy, the locals are so sweet. It was great having a golf cart to drive around without having to go rent one. 100% recommend The magnolias!
