    My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed out stay. The hosts were excellent and gave us great information about the area. The place is beautiful and very comfortable. The breakfast was possibly the best I've ever had at a B&B. Loved it!

    My wife and I wanted to explore some of the history of the Americus Region, mainly Andersonville Camp and the Jimmy Carter Boyhood home and school in Plains, so we selected the Garden Inn as our resting place. The Hosts were great about explaining not only the history of the places we were visiting, but also of the entire region. They certainly added a new prespective for us. The room was excellent, food was fantastic, and the hospitality was beyond our expectations! I would highly recommend this B&B if you are traveling in the Americus area. Thanks Kim and Susan for a wonderful night and some great memories!

    After staying at this Bed & Breakfast Inn (our very first) I will find it rather difficult to ever stay in a motel again. From the time we were greeted at our car to help us with our luggage and the words, "Welcome To Our Home!" I mean.....even our own relatives don't do that! LOL My husband and I truly felt at home, Kim and his wife Susan give you a nice tour of the home, including its rich history, showed us where snacks & drinks were located for our convenience anytime day or night, gave us menus of surrounding restaurants including directions from the Inn. Susan is quite the gourmet cook at breakfast and her love and care is well displayed in the multi course breakfast, which she lovingly wrapped up our leftovers every morning to take with us during our visit (we never had to buy lunch, because of these wonderful leftovers).This trip was a surprise for my husband to his College Georgia Southwestern and to celebrate our 29th Wedding Anniversary. After talking with many friends experiences regarding bed & breakfasts The Americus Garden Inn will be the gauge that we will now measure other B&B, hotels or even relatives homes to.
