Sufficient and comfortable

Inside was clean and well stocked with all the daily necessities of living. We were comfortable and slept well. The water was HOT at all times in both bathrooms. The AC worked excellent and kept the house temperature comfortably cool. The host was quick to respond and allowed early check-in. The outside needs pressure washing and some minor repairs, but the inside made up for the outside. Highly recommend

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!

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
