The space
We understand that life happens. As a rescue farm, we hope that you understand the necessity to uphold our cancellation policy. We highly recommend purchasing trip insurance that covers your loss from last-minute cancellations (due to theft, medical/health issues, weather, etc.)

Our mid-century cottage is spacious and restored with loads architectural antiques and antique furniture. Think Chip & Joanna with luxurious bedding, amazing memory foam mattresses, and comfy spaces for lounging and watching our herd of llamas and alpacas roaming back behind the home. We are a working farm, so you’ll hear roosters and see the llamas and alpacas at the gate. Please don’t go beyond the gates as that space is reserved for treehouse guests

Our cottage boasts three bedrooms and 1 bath, a South facing porch, and a beautiful granite/stainless chef's kitchen. We are in City of Atlanta, just a 15-minute Uber ride to the airport and 7 miles from the attractions of downtown (Aquarium/ Coca-Cola). East Atlanta Village is a vibrant, eclectic area just 1.5 miles away with tons of tasty eateries, bars, and shoppes.

But, when you're out in the back of the cottage, you'll overlook our secret garden complete with canna lillies, banana tree, hostas, ferns, plus the gorgeous barns, llamas and alpacas (over the fence) and bamboo forest in the distance. (Behind the fence is the private area for our treehouse guests). We are sited on over an acre of land, which is unique and lovely for the city. We always say that we are city out front and country out back.

But enough about the location and the setting. The inside of the home has been thoughtfully and mindfully decorated with original oil paintings and art, memory foam mattresses, high thread count sheets and comforters, beautiful antiques, WiFi, flat screen tv with both Sling packages.

IMPORTANT!: The basement area is shared. Our handyman uses one side for his supplies and tools (not accessible to the upstairs). And our cleaners co-share the W/D for the treehouse. Guests can lock the basement door from the upstair. Let us know if you have questions.

Please park in the designated slate chip bump out area in the front left side and use the side porch and keyed entry for easy access.

We have room to sleep 5 guests (one Queen bed, one full bed, and one 3/4 bed). Any guests over 5 incurs a $30 fee per night.

Other things to note
Please park on the slate parking pad, on the right hand side, (there is a sign that says "Llama Parking") in front of the cottage. That allows the treehouse guests to get in and out.

We offer Llama/Alpaca Experience tours for a discounted rate of $35 per person (instead of $50 per) on Friday and Sunday evenings.

IMPORTANT! The basement area is shared. Our handyman uses one side for his supplies and tools (not accessible to the upstairs). And our cleaners co-share the W/D for the treehouse. Guests can lock the basement door from the upstairs! Let us know if you have questions.

Neighborhood highlights

The East Atlanta neighborhood is residential, but features hip bars and delicious eateries. We are a working farm, so you’ll hear roosters, see alpacas and llamas playing, and watch the 1940s vintage bamboo dancing in the wind. We use llama manure on our gardens, as the best fertilizer, so be aware of that.

Fun fact: I'm a good healer of chickens.
Kara & Kate are your hosts. We have a small city farm of rescued animals: llamas, alpacas, chickens, bunnies, dogs, cats, honeybees (far from guests). Enjoy our gardens: flower, veggie, herb and fruit—we love having a farm in the city! We've hosted thousands of guests (several celebs), been featured of Netflix tv shows, commercials. We host wedding and special events. We love Italy, food, rescuing, antiques, and tennis!
