Very cute home. Beds were comfotable. Kitchen nicely stocked with cooking utentils . Directions for check in & check out were very clear. We were visiting for the weekend just to see the aquarium, botanical garden and zoo. Very easy to get to all 3 as well as the airport (we had a rental car). Also noticed about 10 other places we could have visited easily had time permitted.

Cozy Stay in Atlanta

This home was a great stay for my besties and I for a weekend vacation to Atlanta. It was a very comfortable home in a tucked away suburb that felt safe. It was close enough to downtown without being in the middle of the city. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. I lost the check-in instructions email and the host answered right away when I called asking how to get in and was very kind. Thank you Robbie for our amazing stay!

Georgia Aquarium trip

This was the perfect spot for our trip to the Georgia Aquarium! Downtown was easily accessible from the house. The house was clean and the heater kept it nice and warm on a chilly weekend. The kitchen is spacious and has many of the things a family will need. Comfy beds, including the pull-out couch. Highly recommend:)

We found this home to stay at for a week while my husband was getting radiation at Emory Proton Center. We ended up only staying two nights out of the four that we booked, but that was only because we went back home due to the radiation machine being down. Upon arrival at dark the first night, I was a little worrisome by the areas we drove through close to the house. However, once we got to the actual house, I felt safe. The house has cameras, an alarm system (although it kept saying sensors not working..whatever that means) and you can park your vehicle behind a gate. The house was clean and decorated beautifully, but the first thing that I noticed was that you could see through the window coverings. If I could see out, I had a feeling others could see in being it was dark outside and lit up inside. I went outside to check the view outside of the bathroom, and I’ve attached that photo. Every room in the house had these type of coverings, therefore there was ZERO privacy. We rigged up a towel over the bathroom window and contacted the property manager. The property manager called the next day extremely apologetic and shocked this had not been brought up by any previous occupants. I felt she was very sincere, and I appreciated that. She asked if a handyman could come measure the window to try to get a new covering, and of course we said yes. The window coverings were not fixed by the time we left. Not sure if anyone came or not (again we were gone quite a bit.)

Jay Place

To start, Atlanta isn’t the most beautiful or nicest area. The drive to the property is very run down and not very clean. But once you get through that the neighborhood isn’t as bad. And then you pull up to this house that has privacy fences all around it and a one car parking spot behind the privacy fence which was an awesome idea. With this the only suggestion I have is maybe allow us to enter through the side door because it was raining pretty decent when we got there with two kids and much luggage it sucked to have to walk around to the front of the house to enter. We struggled trying to get in because we didn’t read we had to use the front door. But Mrs. Robbie answered very quickly and helped us find our way! I had a few questions during the stay and she was very responsive! Once you get in the house it is absolutely to die for! So clean and decorated so nicely. She had just about everything you might need for your stay! We will definitely be staying with her again if we’re in the area!

Cozy and luxurious accommodations

This property is fantastic! All furnishings and layout are more impressive in person. Besides all the appliances being new, and the furnishings super cute and functional, this is a first time ever that I have had a terrific bed at a home away stay that wasn’t a hotel. I slept great all three nights and that is no small thing. Robbie was quickly available for any questions before and during the stay. As advertised, this house is just 11-17 mins from most sites of interest. We didn’t hear anything from neighbors at all and we kept to ourselves so all worked out there. Three of us stayed here and we were very comfortable and fully used the kitchen to cook breakfast and a few dinners and we had all we needed. Loved the Keurig and used the washer and dryer. Publix Summerville was a nice, comfortable safe nearby shopping location about 12 minutes away, especially, late evening, and we picked up groceries for meals and snacks. The water pressure in the shower is very good and it gets as hot as you want. The deck was a sweet place to view the sun set. Got a lovely picture there. We appreciated putting our truck behind the fence that we tied shut from the inside. I have stayed at lots of properties and usually they are not clean enough for me and the three of us were pleased with the cleanliness here. The location is in the midst of the neighborhood but it’s a short drive from whatever direction you are headed, to a main road. Would stay again. Recommended!!!!!
