About this property

The Decatur City Cottage/short Walk To Square

Our cottage is quiet and peaceful, on a tree lined street in a nice residential neighborhood, yet walking distance to all Decatur has to offer. Our cottage is best suited for a couple and one child. It’s a 15 minute nice walk on safe, tree-shaded sidewalks to Downtown Decatur where you will find many award winning restaurants, shops and pubs. Located only two blocks from the Marta station, one mile from Agnes Scott, 4 miles from Emory and the CDC. Keyless entry, thermostat, free Wi-Fi, Roku TV, no stairs. Check-in anytime after 4pm. Check-out by 10am. Details will be sent closer to check-in.
The Cottage is in our backyard, with a private entrance and walkway. It is a quiet, cozy space. There is a sofa and a 46 inch HD flat screen TV (with Roku including Netflix and Hulu), and DVD player in the front room. In the back there is a very comfortable queen bed with a Sealy Posturepedic Hybrid Plush mattress and 100% Egyptian cotton sheets and quilt. There is also a single size mattress in the small loft area with a reading light perfect for an older child or small adult. The kitchen area has a small oven, cook top, microwave, toaster oven, mini fridge with freezer, a coffee maker with several different coffees and teas to choose from. The bathroom has a walk in tile shower with vanity with clean fresh towels and all essentials needed for your stay.
You have full, private use of the cottage and may feel free to relax in one of our shared spaces in the beautiful back yard. If you are traveling with children, we have a trampoline as well as a large play scape area that your children are free to enjoy. This space is shared with my family and sometimes friends.

I will be available as much or as little as you need me to be. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns during your stay. I will plan on meeting you when you arrive to show you around and answer any questions you may have. Otherwise I will respect your privacy.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Hammond

Host profile image
I am a mother of two amazing kids, I am an RN and work from home. I have lived in the city of Decatur for 15 years and I absolutely love it. I am so excited about hosting and sharing this great city with others. I enjoy gardening, reading, yoga, traveling, camping and love being a Mom. When I was younger I was a nurse in the military and had the opportunity to live in Italy. While there I traveled all over Europe and stayed in many B and B's. Those memories are some that I will treasure forever. I hope I can be as good of a host as I have had the pleasure of experiencing. I look forward to meeting you.
