Wonderful

The Genesis House was the perfect spot for myself and two teenagers. The property was clean and as described. Communication was timely, and the hosts were wonderful! The fishing, paddle boat, kayak, and fire pit were all amazing. I only wish we could have stayed longer! Come and unwind at this gem in the heart of Georgia.

Perfect place to unwind

Brenda & George are the perfect hosts. Very welcoming and accommodating. The home is ultimately clean and warmly furnished. The rural setting is very peaceful and stress-free and includes a beautiful lake view. Be advised, you will travel a couple miles of graded/unpaved road to get to the property but every inch is well worth the trip.

Ladies weekend

It was a beautiful serene place to stay. It was very clean inside and outside. My only complaint was it was a bit of a challenge for my Mama and Sister to go up and down the steps into the house. But that was my fault for not making sure it was handicap accessible. The host was very nice and even called when we mistakenly left something in the freezer. I would definitely stay here again.

Truly a Blessing

I would have given Brenda's place 10 stars if it was possible. We had a family event and needed a place that would be close to our relatives, clean and spacious for us. We had that and more. Brenda's place was extremely clean, welcoming, and spacious, and we felt secure. We had all we needed, from clean bedrooms, lots of clean towels, bathrooms with shampoo, both wash, a very organized kitchen, and closet space. The home was amazing, impeccable and spotless. We felt at home. The home was just as advertised and there were no surprises. Brenda had snacks and juice bottles in the fridge, which was a welcoming surprise after a long trip. It was a pleasure to spend time at her retreat. If we have more family events in the future, we will for sure come back again! Exceptional hosts and a great place to stay.

The Property was Beautiful Clean left complimentary pizza juice water was a nice touch Host was awesome they have dogs so let them know if you have a pet they are not friendly at all and should not be allowed to roam freely at all but the host mannerism was so sincere that I couldn't hold the mishap against them wanted to be angry but couldn't be because owners was so sweet and property was gorgeous

Peace and Calm

Hidden gem of a getaway in Dodge County. The Genesis was everything as described. Brenda was a superb hostess, quick to respond and very helpful. All the amenities a group five would need. The house is plenty spacious and immaculate. Morning coffee overlooking the calm, peaceful pond was an added bonus. Will definitely stay here again.
