Please read the below house rules carefully before booking.

The booking guest must be at least 30 years of age. ADDITIONAL IDENTITY VERIFICATION: Due to short-term rental regulations in Atlanta, additional identity verification is required. Please send a photocopy of your ID at the time of booking.
NO PARTIES: Parties/Get-Togethers are strictly prohibited. Any violation will result in immediate eviction, a minimum fine of $1000, plus any damages and additional cleaning fees. *No additional guests exceeding the original reservation.* Any plans for hosting low-key get-togethers with local friends should be discussed with the homeowner in advance. There is no tolerance for breaking this rule.
No noise outside after 10 pm. This is an ordinance. If people or pets are making excessive, late-night noise and disruptive to our neighbors, they can and may be asked to leave, and there may be no refunds given. This could also result in the potential liability for payments of fines levied by the city, as it is unlawful to allow or make any noise or sound that exceeds the limits set forth in the City's noise ordinance City code Sec. 74-131. Any fines will come out of a security deposit and/or insurance claim if the Guest is unwilling to pay.

No smoking of any kind, even vaping. If smoke remediation is necessary there is a min $250 fine to remove all fabrics, fibers for cleaning. This could increase if there are guests checking in and we need to cancel because the house is smokey.
Each pet (even visitors) requires a $100 fee, must be on flea and tick prevention treatment, and must be pre-approved by the host with a signed pet agreement. There is a max of two (2) pets allowed on the property.

Young children must be supervised by the original renters. If there is a need for child care during your stay, please discuss with the homeowner in advance for local, trustworthy recommendations.
The house is equipped with a Ring security device. Tampering with it, or its network connectivity could deem you a security risk and you may be asked to leave the property without a refund.
If you feel these house rules don't align with you/your plans, we won't be offended if you select another property.
_Please acknowledge that you've read and agree to these rules upon booking by stating your name and sending a photocopy of your DL._
Homeowner will be the main point of contact for booking, checking in/out, and finding out what you need in advance to make your stay fantastic. You'll be sent a link with a form to complete, so we know how we can set up the house for you (type of creamer for fridge, if you need a pack-n-play, etc.)
There is also someone close by who will make sure that the house is ready, etc., and will be on call if you need anything during your stay.
You'll be sent check-in information the night before check-in, and check-out instructions the night before leaving, so you'll know what to expect.
We'll have plenty of recommendations in the guidebooks and will continue to add more as new restaurants open, menus change, etc. Would love to hear feedback if you've tried a new place.
We look forward to having you be our guest!

Loved our VA HI stay!

Our family of five thoroughly enjoyed our Virginia Highlands’ stay! The property was an adorable cottage in the heart of the Va Highlands. We walked to all the restaurants and shops - and even Piedmont park! We had everything we needed — and Carmen went over and above by presenting our dogs with monogrammed blankets to use during our stay! We would highly recommend!

Lovely home, fantastic porch and wonderful host!

The bungalow was a perfect spot for a weekend for us - five college friends who hadn’t all been together in 20 years. The house is beautiful and comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped, the front porch was exactly what we had hoped (and where we spent most of our time.) and the neighborhood is cute and convenient to lots of spots. Carmen was a very attentive host and we would all highly recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Carmen

Host profile image
I have a passion for people, caregiving, and design. And I love projects.

Why they chose this property

I've spent over a decade sweating (read: obsessing over) the details to make this property comfortable, smart, convenient, safe, and overall awesome. Like any old home, this one has given me plenty of projects.

The location is really the main reason for the purchase of this home. From there, it became an optimization of everything else, based on the location.

I immediately tore up the front yard and put in a walking garden because I had small kids and didn't want them playing in the front yard where the traffic was so busy. Then when I put up the front porch swing and made that outdoor "room", I began to enclose that front garden with the camellias, for some privacy when we'd be on the porch, either as a family or hosting guests.

To give the kids a safe and multi-purpose place to play in the backyard, I put turf down in 2012. Again, I was making the most of the property, and turf just gave me the most options. In the Summer we'd have kids over, swimming in an above-ground pool, in the spring a batting cage and Easter egg hunts, and at Halloween, we'd have a huge neighborhood party. It always felt so quiet and private back there, and yet so close to many restaurants and shops.

It was always nice for people to drop by if they were up at the corner for dinner, or if they were in town for some event. We were always hosting people long before we became hosts.

The kids could walk to their elementary school and their middle school. Had we not moved, they could have walked to their high school as well.

The older I get, the less enthusiastic I am about getting in a car and sitting in traffic to go somewhere. Being at or near where I need to be is my favorite place to be.

What makes this property unique

Not only is the home centrally accessible to anything you'd need, charming, fully loaded, renovated, etc., but as perpetual hosts, we also do our best to make you feel at home, while also special.

Upon booking, we'll send you a link to complete a check-in form.

We'll ask about things like creamer preferences for coffee, and we'll make sure to have something stocked for you in advance of your arrival to get your day started. Is there a non-dairy oat milk creamer you like in your coffee each day? We're on it. Do you need fresh eggs each morning? You'll find them when you open the fridge. Whatever you prefer, we'll do our best to source and have waiting for you when you check-in.

If you need a pack-n-play, just tick that on the form and we'll have that set up for you when you arrive.

If you're traveling with your pooch (and we have some lead time), you'll get a special gift from us, and your pooch will arrive with a crate, bowls, and bed set up and waiting for them.

We set up a contactless check-in with a unique code (your phone number, so you won't forget it), so your arrival is simple. You'll get an email from us the night before check-in, reiterating our zero-tolerance house rules, detailing what you might need around the house. Once we get an alert you've checked in and you've had time to get settled, we reach out to see if you need anything.

Then we leave you alone until it's time to send you check-out instructions. :)
