This was my first B&B experience and what a great one it was. When I called for information I could feel the warmth of Susan and her interest in making one's stay the best ever. As a single traveler I was concerned if a B&B stay would work for me. She was able to make me most comfortable just in our short phone conversation. Being interested in history of the area she allowed me to see how one can capture the essence and feel of history by actually staying there. This home predates the Civil War and Kim and Susan have done a great job of returning it to its former self.

The rooms are large with soaring ceilings, and well preserved wood floors. The beds are great. Mine was so restful I wanted to load up the mattress and take it home with me. The baths are large and well appointed for a home of the mid 1800's.

And I cannot close without a discussion of the great breakfasts. Each morning was a treat. I could not wait to try something new each morning. The hosts also provide excellent coffee. I happen to drink coffee through out the day and it was always fresh and available.

Kim and Susan have an attained great knowledge of the local area and its history and are able to direct visitors of points of interest one might not find on your own. They also provide a great review of local places to dine.

I am afraid these hosts have spoiled me. The B&B does work for me and I plan to viist more in the future and return to the Americus Garden Inn as well.

Let me begin with "Absolutely magnificent". Upon our arrival we were warmly greeted by one of the owners, Susan. Prior to arrival we had several phone conversations in which Susan acquainted us with the local area. Being our first B & B experience we were a little nervous, that disappeared with our warm greeting. We were given a tour of the house and a bit of history on the tour. We had spent the day at Andersonville and discussed that for a moment. The room was simply beautiful and personal touches added in every room (the sheets were freshly ironed!!!) My husband and I felt as if we were visiting friends, staying with Susan and Kim (the owners). We travelled with another couple and they were as pleased as we were. Breakfast was home made, all three courses were exceptionally wonderful!!!!! My friend was celebrating her birthday and with one phone call, Susan set everything in place. Needless to say my dear friend had a few wonderful surprises and shed a few happy tears!!
I highly recommend and will return someday.

Our four-day stay at Americus Garden Inn exceeded our expectations. We appreciated the warm hospitality extended by Kim and Susan, starting with phone conversations even before we arrived. They were very helpful in acquainting us with points of interest and places for dining. The rooms are all lovely, and much care has been given to each detail in order to make guests feel right at home and to appreciate the historical ambience. Breakfasts were truly a delightful culinary experience, and each morning brought new surprises for the palate and pleasant discussions with other guests. We highly recommend the Inn to our friends, and we look forward to another visit soon.

This past weekend we had the pleasure of staying at the Americus Garden Inn Bed and Breakfast. It was a wonderful experience! The house is beautiful and has a fascinating history. Our room was so nice. It had a hardwood floor, high ceiling, and a very comfortable bed designed for weary travelers. The 3-course breakfast, along with the biscotti, was both delicious and nutritious! Our 3-course breakfast, which was made from scratch, consisted of chocolate muffins with assorted juices, followed by mixed fruit, and then an egg casserole with cornmeal buttermilk pancakes. What a breakfast! Now I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the owners; they're great people, so gracious and hospitable! They treat you like longtime friends instead of guests and make you feel right at home. Thanks Susan and Kim for a relaxing and fun-filled weekend! We look forward to staying with you again. We'd definitely recommend this bed and breakfast to others; it has 5-star quality.
