Weekend Getaway

My husband and our daughter had a wonderful weekend visit to Atlanta. The home was the perfect size for us, and our dog enjoyed the fenced in back yard. We didn’t need anything during our stay, but the hostess checked on us through out the weekend. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly. Would definitely visit again!!

Clean, quiet & convenient home away from home

My husband and I needed a place to stay near Decatur with two small dogs while our house was being renovated, and this property fit the bill. It's very clean, nicely designed and well thought out. The fenced yard is very secure and our dogs enjoyed their time there. The kitchen is well-equipped for light food prep and the king bed was very comfortable. The neighborhood is quite peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Home

This home was very well managed, clean and had all the necessities for our short trip. It was myself, my spouse, our 3 yr old and 3 pups. The backyard was perfect for them! Directions and guidelines were very clear and the home was out of the busy area but close enough to the town that made it convenient. Loved our stay.

Good place, bad check-in and communication with host

The home is good, has some minor differences from the photos on the listing (different bedding, decor, etc.) but is overall a fine stay for a small group. Our main issues arose with check-in and discovery of missing amenities. When the first members of my party arrived, they found the door to the home open - never something you want when arriving at a rental home!Our host, Svetlana, was responsive upon hearing this, asked if the house was okay and said a plumber must have left it open the day before. Yikes. Luckily this stay was with my parents, but had I been alone I would not have felt comfortable walking into the place.Days before check-in, I received an email from Svetlana about “what not to bring,” because the house had it, only to find that several of said things missing. There were no paper towels, 2 rolls of toilet paper for 3 people, 3 nights, and no extra blankets, (other than comforters on beds), sponges for dishes, cutting boards, or cooking oil. We communicated about the lack of paper products specifically minutes after resolving the open-door issue, did not receive a response for several hours, asked again and were told they would be brought over that night, then were told they would bring them over the next morning, then had to ask again before they were delivered at 11AM the next day. Minor inconveniences, but especially discouraging when being specifically told that the house was stocked with these things and when hoping for a seamless stay over the holiday

About the host

Hosted by Svetlana

Host profile image
As a journalist I travelled all over the world, and I did not want to stop when my son was born. My boy made 37 flights with me before he even turned two!
It was mostly fun, except for the housing part. Hotels are just not designed for kids. We needed a play space, our own kitchen, a high chair, and a thousand little things that Moms have to carry everywhere to take care of their little ones.

I was dreaming about a place to stay where young children would be welcomed, and parents could relax. So, I created such space designed for families and opened my doors for you!

Why they chose this property

We bought this property because it is very close to our own home. We love this area, and highly recommend it to all! We can take good care of our guests because we are just 10 minutes drive from the house.

What makes this property unique

What made me fall in love with this property was a very private backyard with the mature trees. It is so quiet and tranquil here. The trees are like your lifeguards.
