This stay was everything we could have hoped for during our trip to ATL. Nike was great in her communication before and during our stay, the property was exactly as described, it was conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. We didn't want for a single thing while we were there and when I return for this conference next year, I plan to book this property once again. Thanks so much for your hospitality!

It's a lovely little house, very comfortable, very close to downtown Decatur. The neighborhood is full of attractive homes and gardens, a pleasure to walk in. Having two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen--really, not what most short-term rentals call fully equipped--was a luxury. Thank you!

Great place to stay convenient to Decatur

We stayed here to attend our daughter's wedding. House was very nice and right next to downtown Decatur. The only downside was that metal barstools are not that comfortable after a while. Otherwise, the decor was perfect for an arts focused theme.

Home away from Home

We stayed at this adorable cottage for a family wedding. Location was perfect - just 2 blocks from my brother's home! Perfect location for walking into Decatur, my brother's "local" The Thinking Man and if needed short walk to the MARTA station. The home was as pictured - we made use of the front porch, back porch and the fire pit. Truly felt like our home away from home for the long weekend. Enjoyed chatting with Nike & Keith and we all loved the rock n roll decor too! We will definitely stay here next time we're in Decatur.
