Cute cottage in a great area

The house is a little older and had the charm that was perfect for us. The closed in backyard was just what we needed for our dog. I loved sitting on the front porch with my morning coffee and just taking a much needed breath. The owners were great about getting back to me super quick on questions I had.

Enjoyed the stay

My family and I had a short stay and we needed a place to stay for two days to go to the aquarium and some other fun things we had planned. The location was perfect and the neighborhood felt really safe. Our dog enjoyed being off leash and running around the fenced in backyard. It was such a nice cozy home, and the bed in the main bedroom was really comfortable. The host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

Great Experience!

Hosts were so helpful as we requested an early check in and late check out. The house was clean and well stocked with coffee and breakfast items. Beds and family room sofa were comfortable for three adults and two small dogs. The dogs enjoyed the fenced in yard and we enjoyed the short walk to restaurants/bars and easy drive to State Farm Arena for the event we attended. Will definitely return for similar events in the future.

Absolutely Perfect

Couldn’t have asked for more! Incredibly easy to dip downtown, yet private and quiet. Well fenced yard which lent to a worry-free experience with our furry best friend (dog), who loved the walkable, safe neighborhood. Lots of thoughtful accoutrements, thus we left feeling appreciated vs taken advantage of as we’ve experienced with less considerate hosts. We will absolutely look here first when our travels again take us to the Atlanta area.

The property is located in a very desirable neighborhood. Beautiful, with people out walking, running, walking their dogs, it is just a very lively neighborhood. The place young people want to raise their children. Very friendly.

Atlanta stay

We had a wonderful time in Eastlake Cottage. It is located in a wonderful neighborhood, very walkable and safe. The house is clean and updated and the bed was comfortable. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch in the morning listening to the birds in the wonderful trees. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much.

Long Weekend in Atlanta

My family and I stayed at East Lake Cottage while in Atlanta celebrating a family member's engagement. The house is adorable and filled with fantastic amenities...Lauren and Brenton have thought of everything! The neighborhood is safe and close to so much. Highly recommend if you're looking for a dog-friendly home in Atlanta.

Fall break

The cottage was perfect. It felt like home when you stepped through the door. The owners really went the extra mile to make it feel welcoming. The beds were super comfy. We felt safe there. Would definitely recommend. The neighborhood was safe. You could see people jogging and walking their dogs. Kids were playing in their yards and at the little preschool nearby. The only negative thing I can say is do not go outside the neighborhood after dark. We went to the grocery store about 2 miles or so away from the area and we felt pretty uneasy. The homeless population can be a little aggressive and didn’t take no for an answer easily. We couldn’t get back to the safety of the cottage quick enough!!

Great communication & responds quickly!

The home was accurate to the description and the hosts were very responsive. There was an issue with the heat and they let us know immediately before we arrived and offered space heaters to provide heat. The weather was good, so we didn't need the heat. We had a great experience and would go back.

Cozy home

My wife and I enjoyed our time in this beautiful and cozy place. The house is well eqipped and we found everything we needed. The cottage is located in a nice, friendly and save neighborhood. We were able to have diner each night in a different restaurant and they all were in walking distance. Lauren and Brenton are very nice and responsive. When we (hopefully soon) come back to Atlanta we definitely would like to stay in this cottage again. Thanks for hosting us!

Not What We Were Expecting

Cleanliness of Property: There were pet stains on the carpets, couch, and pillows on the couch. The inside of the dishwasher was dirty. There was a blood stain on the floor in the bathroom. There was a pet odor coming from the comforter in the master bedroom. Communication with Property Manager: We contacted the property managers by phone to see if it might be possible for us to check in 1 day early and had to wait 4 - 5 days before getting a response. By then, the response was too late. Accuracy of Online Listing: The bathroom is much SMALLER than illustrated in the listing. Location and Neighborhood: We heard police sirens and people yelling outside during the night. The property is a corner property that juts out at the intersection of 2 streets.
