About this property

Bring the Dog! 10-Mins to Downtown /20-Mins to Airport

My East Lake home is perfect for travelers who want comfort, style and proximity to the best Atlanta has to offer. Walk to our community lake, be downtown in just 10-minutes, or the airport in less than 20. Oh, and bring the dog!

Inside, you'll find a warm, stylish vibe with art I've curated from travels around the world. Many thoughtful details and lush houseplants throughout all designed with your peace and comfort in mind.

The chef's kitchen is stocked with everything from air-fryers to stove-top coffee pots to waffle irons and a cabinet full of spices. The bathrooms each have toiletries galore in case you forget to bring something.

Families will appreciate the books, games and kid's touches while dog-owners will love the welcoming extra's (toys/treats/bowls) for their fur-babies.

Step outside to the private deck that's plush with summertime herbs and a very active birdfeeder where cardinals and doves like to hang out. The firepit is great for those chilly nights and no worries about wood and lighter fluid - I got you covered!

Not just a place to stay - it's your homebase while exploring our exciting, vibrant city!

All dogs are welcome here. You may bring 2. The fee for a pet stay is $50 to cover the extra time spent cleaning/sanitizing. Please include with your booking your intention to bring your fur-babies. Small/Medium/Large crates available upon request. No deposit required but you are responsible for any damage left behind.

Marcher was so welcoming, friendly and responsive. Her house is very cute and comfortable and there are so many thoughtful touches. I hope I get to stay here again, particularly when it’s warmer so I can take advantage of the back deck.

We had a wonderful time during our stay! I think the things that make a place like this better than others are the “small things”… the things that make it feel like home. No little detail is left unattended to. We had everything we needed for cooking, the backyard was great for our dog, the beds and linens and towels were so very comfortable, and the whole space was just immaculately clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again!

Great Stay

The owner was very clear about everything I was interested in with the house. The house looked great in the pictures and just as great in person. Everything we could make needed for cooking and cleaning was provided. It was just an all around great stay.

Great little bungalow .

Property was an enigma based on everything around. First glance says sketchy area but this property was a great little bungalow fully secure, including the yard and area turned out to be very quiet and easily accessible to everything we needed. Area does have other scattered new construction which indicates a positive transformation. Based on everything, we would stay in it again if needed.

Perfect stay. Perfect experience.

I chose this place because I have never used VRBO before and it had the best reviews. I looked for MONTHS before deciding on this one. My husband, myself, 13 yo, 11 yo, 1 year old, and our dog stayed for 4 nights. The location is perfect. Quiet street but close to downtown. The owner literally thought of EVERYTHING (hairspray, lint roller, toiletries, tips) literally all the things I forgot. It was clean, spacious, and truly wonderful. The owner was super accommodating and quick to respond with any and all questions. If I ever come back I’ll be sure to use again. Would give 100 stars if I could. Amazing first experience.

Perfect family getaway

The house was adorable and just what our family of 4 needed for a quick weekend getaway. The kids got up first thing each morning to go watch the animals in the backyard and we all enjoyed the attention to detail and extra amenities provided. Everything was very clean and well-kept. Would stay again next time we’re in the area.

Home away from home

Loved our experience! We moved from Atlanta in 2019 and usually we stay with friends when we visit but we wanted something different. This was perfect for us. Great location and quiet neighborhood. The backyard is everything!

Cute Cottage!

This “little” cottage is larger than it looks and has plenty of space for an extended stay. It has a large yard as well and an herb and vegetable garden that we were encouraged to use. Anything we needed from kitchen items to laundry detergent we found in the house. Would highly recommend this place to stay!

A Little Oasis

We loved the little house, but it was the extras that made this location a real charmer: fresh baked bread, flowers and plants in every room, and the lovely backyard garden with twinkle lights! Can’t wait to stay again!

Best Stay, ever!!

So impressed. The house was perfect, a true home away from home. Super clean and well kept. No detail was left to chance - everything was perfect!! We will make this our permanent spot every time we are in the area. Best house, super comfy and cozy, safe and a huge yard. So close to everything! The extra touches of tea, coffee, etc. were all above and beyond. I’ve stayed a lot of places, this home was truly like home away from home. Perfect!

Sweet little cottage

My kids and I really enjoyed staying in this cottage. I didn’t want to leave! It was very clean and comfortable, and just enough space for us. The backyard is huge and fenced in, so I felt safe letting my kids run around in the back. We also got to see some hummingbirds! The kitchen has everything you need if you like to cook. There are also fresh herbs growing out back! I hope to be able to stay here every time I am in the Atlanta area!
