About this property
Early check in late check out cottage in SERENBE Chattahoochee Hills GA
Mad Violette Cottage is located right in the Serenbe** wellness community, 30 minutes south of the Atlanta airport. We welcome check-in at 12:00 noon so you can enjoy a full first day at the cottage, and late check out is the norm, at 5:00 pm. If you need an earlier check-in or later check-out, please let us know. We can sometimes accommodate that.
Serenbe is different from anyplace you have ever visited. You can see the stars at night and walk through the woods during the day. Even if you are working at the cottage - we have high speed internet, a printer, and really pretty work space upstairs and downstairs - you will feel as if you have gotten away from it all.
You'll have private use of a two-story, two bedroom, two bathroom cottage, stocked with books and board games, steps away from wooded trails in one direction and Halsa and Radical Dough restaurants and Bamboo juice shop in the other. Mad Violette Cottage is also a two minute walk to the Spa at Serenbe, Creek Retreat Spa and Wellness services and the Serenbe Yoga Studio.
The lower level of the cottage offers a large, well-stocked book case, two loveseats, a comfy chair for reading or watching television, and a SmartTV. The kitchen island provides space for up to four to eat together. At the back of the lower level is the first bedroom and bathroom. The bedroom has a small desk, for reflective writing or a bit of work.
Out the sliding glass doors on the lower level you'll find our private side courtyard garden area, perfect for drinks or a snack. Seating for four on the front porch allows you to have your morning coffee or tea (the cottage is stocked with both, and creamer and sugar, too) and watch the walkers stroll by. We have one bike available for your use, and more can be rented at the bike shop, a short walk from the cottage.
A few turns up the stairs leads to the second level, with a large master bathroom with separate toilet, and the master bedroom. A smaller SmartTV and a desk for work or reflection, and another comfy chair and stocked bookcase complete our set-up. Note that we have an HP wireless printer, in case you are working.
The loft area is connected to the master bedroom without a door, and is a larger, open space. Our loft area provides extra sleeping space with a day bed and futon. The day bed is stacked with two single sized mattresses. The day bed can be pulled out and the single mattresses spread out to make a king-sized sleeping space. This room also has an extra futon stored in the corner. Looking at all of the sleeping space in the house, it is suitable for 2 people sharing the queen bed downstairs, two sharing the queen bed upstairs, and two or three children on the day bed mattresses and futon. The cottage is most comfortable, though, for a maximum of five people.
Come without anything to read and discover something new. Do a wellness reset with a Bamboo juice fast and hikes. Practice some yoga. Reconnect over board games*. Escape for a quiet work retreat. We think you'll love it here!
Golf cart rentals are $60 per day from www.serenbegolfcarts.com - please reserve in advance! Serenbe is very walkable, but a golf cart for a day can be a great way to explore.
NOTES: This house is best for pre-toddler babies and older kids; curved wood stairway (uncarpeted) makes it not good for toddlers. If you need a one day rental, please contact us to request for an additional cleaning fee.
*Ask about our Harry Potter wand and robe box, if you are bringing kids who are Harry Potter fans. You must request this, and we will put it upstairs for your kids.

Great guest, booked early and communicated consistently. Gabriela's group left the cottage in perfect shape. Please come see us again!
The apartment was beautiful and well furnished. The neighborhood was amazing. Tried a few of the local restaurants within the neighborhood, also amazing. I would happily stay again.

We were very happy to have you and hope you will come back in the future!
Heaven on Earth. We loved every moment of staying at this house and hope to return. The home itself is phenomenal, perfect for a couple friend / family member who could stay in the 2nd bedroom. Location also perfect. Peaceful, serene. Close enough to Atlanta to be an easy drive yet tou feel transported to a simpler way of living from the past.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cottage at Serenbe. The place was so cozy and inviting, there was so much to do in the community, and everyone we met was so friendly. We wish we planned a longer stay.

Thanks and please bring your family back anytime!!
This little cottage was perfect for a weekend with our mom for her birthday. The home was very clean, and I loved the way the owners had "extras" there for our use. Nothing was missing. We loved it!
The cottage was absolutely amazing! We loved all of the decorations, books and prime location! My daughter and I had the perfect trip to Serenbe! We can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

We are so glad y’all enjoyed. Come back again and thanks for taking such good care of the house!
While undergoing cancer treatments at City of Hope we were able to come home to this great house in Mado area of Serenbe. Everything made us feel right at home. Thank you to the hosts who went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. DB

Your family is always welcome to feel at home at the cottage.
My wife and I really enjoyed staying at the Mad Violette Cottage for a long weekend. It was nicely furnished, very clean, and easy to park. Close to good food with the Halsa restaurant right across the street. The host communicated everything very well. We definitely look forward to staying there again in the future!

Superb guests, easy to communicate with and left the cottage in wonderful shape. I hope they will visit again!
What an adorable, comfortable, and perfectly supplied piece of heaven! This home was perfectly located, beautifully decorated, and well stocked with all the essentials plus some! The hosts were SO kind, communicative, and gracious. We left our kiddos at home for this trip but fully intend to bring them back. Our hosts are well prepped for littles with items like books and games to keep them busy for hours! The collection of books offered to us was fantastic. I knew we were in the right home when I saw a copy of my favorite book on the shelf along with others that peaked my interest.The welcome book was packed full of useful information along with great food and activity suggestions from the hosts.The bed was comfortable, the kitchen perfectly stocked, the water pressure was excellent, and aside from it taking me a minute to figure out the door, everything was perfect.Serenbe itself is so special but our stay in the Mad Violette Cottage made our entire trip more memorable. Thank you to our hosts. We can't wait to return!

About the host
Hosted by Chris
Why they chose this property
Mad Violette Cottage is one of the newer rental offerings at Serenbe, and it is a cottage we use ourselves, so no corners have been cut. Super fast wi-fi and a wireless printer make it great for working. We have an early check-in of 12:00 pm, so you do get almost a full first day, and late check out at 5:00 pm. We like and expect the best, and are excited to offer it to you while we are at home in Atlanta. It is in the Mado Hamlet of Serenbe.
What makes this property unique
We rely on this cottage as a safe haven - a place to unwind, escape from the hustle of Atlanta, and enjoy the intentional beauty of both the made world of Serenbe (which has been designed very intentionally as a biophilic community) and the natural preserved space in the community. We have a wide selection of books and games, and think of Mad Violette as our thinking cottage - a wonderful place to rest, renew, and problem solve. But you can also come to work (fast internet, peaceful place) or to watch tv. Perfect spot for a book discussion or a work from home retreat. For more about Serenbe, see www.serenbe.com
