We really enjoyed our stay at this charming 1920s bungalow within walking distance to downtown Decatur. The home has tons of character. The location is a big plus—close to local shops, restaurants and Emory University Hospital, which made getting around super convenient.One of our favorite features was the quiet nature path at the end of the cul-de-sac directly across the street. It was such a treat to take a relaxing walk there one sunny afternoon.As always, great communication from host and the home was fresh & clean upon arrival.

The house is always in tip-top shape - very clean and well stocked. The home has a cozy relaxing atmosphere. The neighborhood is cute and convenient to everything. We love strolling around nearby Agnes Scott College and exploring all the amazing restaurants in Decatur. A

This was our third time staying at this home. As always, it was exceptionally clean upon arrival! The kitchen is our favorite spot to spend time - the large dining table and big kitchen island are great places to sit and socialize or work remotely. The wifi is fast and reliable. We streamed a movie on the big tv in the living room with no problem. The home has always been well-stocked with basic supplies - which is a nice bonus! We did a load of laundry this visit - the washer and dryer work great. The host and property manager are easy to reach and have quickly answered any time we've had questions. Overall an A property!

The house has so much character and all modern conveniences. The host has thought of everything - tvs in all bedrooms, plenty of nice towels, handsoaps & shampoo, plenty of extra trash bags & paper towels, laundry supplies & kitchen utensils & pans. The kitchen appliances are top-notch & the whole house was spotless! The location was great - convenient to stores & restaurants.

Started out a little rough with a smoke alarm beeping that we could not locate. Maintenance want able to ge there until around 5:30pm. But it was fixed and we were happy about that because the beeping kept us all up the first night. Kids loved their rooms and the swing under stairs. Great kitchen and outdoor space. Giving it a four rating due to several exposed electrical sockets and stains on comforts on both downstairs. The house is up for sale as well so there aren’t a lot of blinds nor curtains which would have given us more privacy at night. With all that being said, we would stay here again as it is in close proximity to Agnes Scott College, family and friends.

Amazing home in Decatur

We were so happy to find this amazing spot just outside of Atlanta. The house is absolutely beautiful and so spacious.. 5 of us (kids and adults) stayed very comfortably here. The host is fantastic and kept us informed of things, along with getting back to us when we had any questions. This house is located in the perfect spot for so many things to be seen. Highly recommend!

Great property with easy access to Decatur and downtown Atlanta. Home was well cared for and deco pleasing and functional. It rained the whole time we were there for the most part so didn't have an opportunity to enjoy the deck and backyard. Host was very responsive. Only consideration was home on a very busy street.
