Hidden gem - exactly as advertised

I will definitely try to stay here again - the property was in excellent condition and clean. The host was responsive and always available. They even threw in some snacks to make the rental feel "homey". I will definitely recommend this rental to friends/fam!

Just Right for Us

Everything inside the house was clean, homey, and comfortable. The large fenced backyard allowed our Boston to play with our grandson. The location was very close to Stone Mountain Park, but we did have to travel 20 to 30 minutes to get to nearby restaurants - which were well worth the drive! Communication with the owner was quick - she had to turn up the heat because we Floridians get cold easily!

Hurricane evacuation haven!

Thank you Michelle for providing us this haven when we were displaced from Hurricane Helene! She was so accommodating for my family and fur babies. The home is very clean, comfortable and a great, quiet location.

What a Great Home to Stay in Atlanta

This a home you want to stay in while in Atlanta. The host has taken care of so many details that its just amazing. It is located within ten minutes of restaurants and supermarkets. Plus, being a car loving guy, having a garage to store my vehicle is a plus I could not resist. I highly recommend this home.

Beautiful

This home was beautiful just like the photos. Communication with the host was very easy. They had snacks for us when we got there, plenty of towels, home was well stocked. Kids really enjoyed being able to have their rooms. Beds were very comfortable, water felt amazing as it got really hot. Felt very safe staying here as the house did have an alarm and the neighborhood was very quiet and safe. When we came out one morning we saw deer walking, nice experience. Will definetly stay again

4 day stay

Renovated property with new flooring throughout as well as newer appliances including washer and dryer. Property was in move-in condition and clean. Family enjoyed our time there and much more convenient than a hotel for a getaway occupancy.

Great location for Stone Mountain

We really enjoyed our stay. Large older property but very comfortable. We were there to go to the Scottish Games. Beds comfortable, linens were fluffy, Dishwasher isn't connected to the counter so will tend to fall out but it worked well. We used the washer and dryer. Not a luxury rental but very adequate for our needs.
