Lovely house, great location
The house is in a lovely, quiet neighborhood that is in walking distance to a lot of the restaurants and shops in downtown Decatur. It is very clean and well maintained. The backyard and deck were particularly lovely with all the azaleas in bloom. Nice to sit out there in the mornings and listen to the birds. Kelly was very responsive and helpful.

Wonderful little gem and wonderful host !
The house was so cute and amazingly close to town - close enough for my 3 and 6 year old to walk to coffee shops and restaurants ! The host Kelly was great and easy to communicate with and fixed a hiccup with the place immediately ! Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

Total Gem
The interior design of this rental was fun and fresh, and lends to a very inviting space. We stayed with our children for five days while visiting family. The host has thought of just about everything. The location is perfect, walking distance to a park, as well as shops, cafes and restaurants. We highly recommend the space and will rent again when visiting family.

Cute & Convenient!
My friend and I stayed here while we were in town for a wedding. The house is charmingly decorated and was immaculately clean. It’s also within walking distance of many cute places to eat, drink, and shop in Decatur. Kelly was a lovely host and helped us resolve a mistake we made in booking our dates without any trouble.

Great property, outstanding location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and found the property to be exactly as advertised. Perfectly comfortable VRBO property and the very best part is that it could not have been better located in Decatur - right near all the great shops and restaurants.
