About this property

Wonderful, private 1-BR Apartment With Great Deck, Huge Yard

This well-appointed, charming 1-BR apartment features a very quiet bedroom with a queen size bed, premium 400-threadcount linens, a separate sitting / living room with a fold-out couch, a full kitchen with dining for four, and a full bathroom.
Located in one of Decatur's best neighborhoods (Winnona Park), it is 1/4 mile from Agnes Scott College and a 15-minute walk from downtown Decatur Square. Downtown Atlanta is about 15-20 minutes by car, and access to public transport is easy too: a bus leaves literally 100 feat from the property and takes 2 minutes (2 stops) to the downtown Decatur MARTA train station.
The apartment is in a separate structure from the main house, atop a 2-car garage in the back of a large lot. It also has a large deck with gas grill for BBQ and outdoor seating for four, in midst trees and lots of green. Very quiet, very privat and suitable for singles, romantic getaways, traveling with children (a well-stocked library has over 100 books, as well as dozens of kids titles), or long-term rentals. The full kitchen has a full gas stove and oven, large fridge, coffee maker (com,mentally Starbucks coffee and organic teas) and all utensils, plates, silver- and glassware for four people.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Lovely location, great for solo traveler

Daniel was a great host and his property is a perfect place for a solo traveler or couple to call home base while exploring Atlanta. Walking distance to lovely trails and downtown Decatur, tons of amenities in the apartment and a super simple check in/out process. Didn’t have to change sheets or run laundry or take out the trash, just got to enjoy my stay and watch the cardinals and robins sing each morning.

Great, quiet stay for a single or couple

My partner and I were traveling to Decatur for a wedding and had no choice but to bring our dog. With it being 4th of July weekend, we tried to choose a place in a quieter neighborhood for the sake of our dog's anxiety. While the property faces a busier street, a quiet neighborhood perfect for a dog walk was just a block or so away.This property had a large yard and deck. It was the perfect size for us for a long weekend stay and was very close to everything we needed/wanted to see. The bed was comfortable and the window unit AC was more than sufficient to keep us cool enough to sleep. We had no issues that required his assistance, but Dan was an extremely responsive host. Should we find ourselves making this trip in the future, we would definitely repeat this stay.

Weekend Staycation

“Communication is key”, and Dan did so very well. This cute little one bedroom apartment, in hip Decatur, was close enough to everything to be convenient and far enough to be immune from any late night bar patrons and their boisterous closing-time noise. You can try to find better food than Decatur can offer but it won’t be easy; and plenty of venues for music and arts and the bedroom feel just a few blocks from its city center make this a great place to visit!

Wonderful Little Place

We had a fantastic stay at this cozy little spot. The property is just lovely and it was equipped with everything we needed. Dan was so accommodating and welcoming - we met one of his sons as well, and he was also super friendly and nice. If we ever need somewhere to stay in the area we will surely return. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Good spot

Close to everything in town. Driveway is a bit narrow, though my dually did fit it was s tight squeeze. Host was excellent, and his adult son's were also very pleasant and polite. A good place to stay.

I had a great stay. It was a little unclean and I’d advise Dan to get a pest control person in. Other than that, loved the place.
