At arrival we were warmly greeted by the owner, John. His hospitality was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced at a hotel. This is far better than a hotel. The ideal bed and breakfast charm too. He is so kind and goes out of his way to make his guests feel welcome and appreciated. We came to Augusta for medical reasons, and his kindness touched us at a difficult time. I will be staying here in the future, during my visits for treatment at the Augusta hospital.

Great Stay

We visited Augusta to attend the funeral of a family friend and were fortunate to discover the LookAway Inn. This beautiful historic home exudes southern charm, making it a perfect retreat during a difficult time. The lobby is elegantly designed, capturing the essence of southern hospitality, while our rooms were impeccably clean and exceptionally comfortable. The innkeeper, John, truly went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Knowing we arrived early for the funeral, he graciously arranged for us to change comfortably before heading out. After spending the day with friends, we returned to the inn for a delicious breakfast that was the perfect start to our day. The location of the inn is not only convenient but also offers stunning views. We took a lovely stroll to the waterfront for dinner, adding to the overall experience. I highly recommend the LookAway Inn for anyone seeking a charming and accommodating place to stay in Augusta.

Great spot in a quaint area. If you like history then stay here. John is great about local history, plus the beauty of the Inn is well worth the stay. The breakfast was great, room was very roomy, hot shower, comfy bed. Couldn’t ask for more.

Very pleasant stay. John and staff very welcoming and accommodating. Would have appreciated some actual glasses in the room. We arrived late and had brought a bottle of wine which we had to drink out of 2 small plastic cups… otherwise all was good.

Charming historic hotel. Friendly host and staff. Big spacious rooms. Good location with many good dining locations just a mile away near the river walk. When in the area this is where I will stay. The buffet breakfast with eggs made to order is exactly as it sounds.

If you are ever in the Augusta area, staying in South Augusta is a clever idea. Beautiful small town, with a lot of great dining places to choose from. And staying at the Lookout is an absolute no-brainer. An amazing bed-and-breakfast type property, it's really the former Mansion of the founder of the town. It has been converted to a small hotel, with all modern amenities, but it keeps its character - which is unusual. Our bedroom was enormous and perfectly furnished. Even better, John - one of the owners who also manages Lookout - is an interesting and gracious host. He oversaw breakfast, and we had a great conversation that made is feel welcomed.. If we are ever in Georgia again, we now know where to stay.

Our stay was wonderful! The inn was very clean and beautifully furnished. The host was communicative and accommodating. We were treated to a lovely breakfast with eggs made to order and a variety of buffet items. The host was available for conversation and questions but not obtrusive. We would highly recommend a stay at the Inn if you are in the area.

Loved it

Old inns are quirky and lack amenities we take for granted, but this place was a great memory while others hotels just fade from your mind. We're grateful John and his partners keep this treasure going.
