✨ The Whistling Porch – Bright, Spacious Augusta Retreat Minutes from the Masters ✨ Welcome to The Whistling Porch, a light-filled, beautifully designed 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat in the heart of Augusta, Georgia. This home is named in honor of our beloved grandpa Bob, who had a gift for spreading joy everywhere he went — often through a cheerful whistle. Just like Bob, this house radiates warmth, optimism, and the easy comfort of good company. Whether you’re here for the Masters Tournament, a family getaway, or a fun escape with friends, The Whistling Porch was made for laughter, relaxation, and lasting memories. 🏡 The Space Step inside and exhale — the home’s airy, open-concept design connects the family room, living room, dining area, and kitchen into one beautiful, social space. It’s perfect for cooking, entertaining, or just gathering around music and conversation. Kitchen: Bright, open, and fully stocked for real cooking and entertaining. You’ll find everything you could possibly need — a complete set of pots, pans, baking sheets, serving bowls, and utensils. There are two full silverware sets, a knife block, multiple glasses (including wine glasses and mugs), and essentials like olive oil, salt, pepper, and a full range of spices. Enjoy two coffee options — a Keurig and a Nespresso — plus a wine opener, bar tools, and thoughtful extras that make this kitchen feel like home. Dining Room: A beautiful centerpiece of the house with a large table for eight, upgraded gold-colored silverware, cloth napkins, martini tools, and elegant touches for special meals. The chandelier with Edison bulbs glows over colorful candlesticks, and we’ve even included candles and table décor for birthdays or celebrations, because we believe every stay deserves a little sparkle. Living Room: Spacious, comfortable, and designed for connection. Sink into the large sofa, stream your favorite shows on the Roku TV, and enjoy the natural light that fills the room throughout the day. It’s the perfect spot for relaxing after a day at the Masters, movie nights with friends, or lazy mornings with coffee in hand. 🛏 Bedrooms & Bathrooms Primary King Suite: Filled with natural light, ceiling fan, smart TV, and windows overlooking the front porch. Downstairs Queen Suite: Has its own private bathroom, dresser, TV, desk, and sitting area — perfect for guests seeking privacy. Upstairs King Bedroom: Airy and peaceful with soft blue tones, seating nook, ceiling fan, and TV. We call this the "sensory room" as there are no artwork at all, just neutral tones. Upstairs Twin Room: Two cozy twin beds with dresser, closet, and TV — ideal for kids or friends. Bathrooms: 3 total — bright, clean, and stocked with towels, essentials, and thoughtful touches. 🌙 Upstairs Hallway Nook At the top of the stairs, you’ll find a peaceful little hallway retreat — a quiet corner with a couple of comfortable seats, perfect for reading, journaling, or just taking a moment to yourself. As night falls, you’re accompanied by a friendly astronaut (long story!!) light that casts tiny twinkling stars across the ceiling, adding a dreamy glow to the space. It’s a small, magical touch that guests of all ages love — a gentle reminder that even in the calmest corners, there’s always a bit of wonder waiting. 🌿 Outdoor Living The outdoor spaces are pure Augusta magic. Front Porch: Classic Southern charm with a porch swing and cozy seating under string lights — a perfect spot to sip coffee or maybe channel a little Bob and whistle in the breeze. Backyard Retreat: Fenced-in and designed for relaxation and fun — featuring a fire pit, cornhole, ladderball, barbecue grill, pergola swing, tiki torches, BBQ, and plenty of comfortable seating. Outdoor Bluetooth speakers let you enjoy your favorite playlist under the stars. It’s the kind of backyard where afternoons stretch into evenings and memories linger long after the fire dies down. 🎮 Entertainment & Extras --Smart TVs in every bedroom + main living room --Record player and vinyl collection --Indoor & outdoor Bluetooth speakers --Games, puzzles, and backyard activities --LG washer & dryer --Fast Wi-Fi & multiple workspaces --Brand-new central A/C throughout 📍 Prime Augusta Location Perfectly located for everything you want to see and do: 🏌️ 9 minutes → Augusta National (Masters Tournament) 🏙️ 6 minutes → Downtown Augusta (Riverwalk, restaurants, nightlife) ⚾ 11 minutes → SRP Park & Augusta nightlife 🛍️ 13 minutes → Augusta Mall 🛒 8 minutes → Publix + Fresh Take Market ☕ 3 minutes → Starbucks & CVS 🏫 3 minutes → Augusta University (Summerville Campus) 🛍️ 7 minutes → Surrey Center Shopping & Dining ⛽ 10 minutes → Costco 🚑 5 minutes → Piedmont Augusta ER (just in case but hopefully not!) 🚶‍♀️ Walking distance → Trellis Coffee Bar, a local favorite for espresso and pastries 💖 Why Guests Love The Whistling Porch ✔️ Open-concept design that feels bright, spacious, and welcoming ✔️ Perfect for families, golfers, couples, or groups visiting for the Masters ✔️ Gorgeous indoor and outdoor spaces for entertaining ✔️ Fully stocked kitchen for real cooking and gathering ✔️ Fire pit, cornhole, ladderball, porch swing, and outdoor speakers ✔️ Vinyl player, games, and the perfect blend of style + comfort ✔️ Friendly neighborhood and walkable charm ✔️ Two-night minimum — but guests always wish they’d stayed longer 🌟 Come stay at The Whistling Porch — where comfort meets Southern charm, and the spirit of Bob’s easygoing whistle still lingers in the air.
