Decatur Alpaca Cottage

Decatur Alpaca Farm is more of a lifestyle than a physical space. Nestled in an unassuming…read moreresidential neighborhood, this magnificent microfarm and its beautifully manicured gardens, impeccably clean grounds, and hilariously entertaining animals offers such a whimsical and interesting escape from the hustle and bustle of the city -- it is an escape you surely will not want to miss. Marykay, who is by far one of the most interesting, friendly, and intelligent people we've ever met, greeted us with a fresh bowl of eggs hatched that same day from her flock of 25 chickens. The alpaca herd was visible from the nearby gate -- all were happily chomping away at a pile of orchard grass (which Marykay later informed us is the equivalent of alpaca pizza). They are inquisitive, yet a little shy, but if you respect them they will return the favor. Both alpacas, chickens, and cottage guests have plenty of space so as not to intrude upon one another. We opted for the Alpaca Experience, which is an absolute must-do for all guests. It is incredibly informational and as interactive as you'd like for it to be -- assuming you are putting the animals' needs ahead of your own. Marykay is incredibly knowledgeable and has literally built the farm from a small chicken coop to a very impressive, tidy, organized alpaca haven. It is very evident that all animals are so loved, respected, and maybe just a bit spoiled from time to time. All are rescued from varying degrees of past hardship but their new life on Marykay's farm is a blissful existence, as evidenced by their calm, enthusiastic, and curious demeanor. The cottage itself is adorable -- easily comparable to the spaces and vibes found in Garden and Gun or Southern Living. The refrigerator is stocked with all the conveniences of home, snacks and beverages are available for those late-night cravings, and coffee at the ready for early risers. Everything was clean, warm, cozy, and loved -- just like the farm animals. Dare we mention the alpaca fiber blankets available throughout the space? The entire experience is what you make of it. Should you want to hole up in the house (not recommended when alpaca/chicken watching is so entertaining and the spirit of the various flower/vegetable/dyes gardens being so alive, but who are we to tell you how to spend your time), Marykay will absolutely respect your boundaries. But, if you're looking to truly experience something unique, as her a few questions. You will not be disappointed. We travel often and book via Airbnb regularly, however no place has been quite as comfortable, unique, interactive, and interesting as Decatur Alpaca Farm. Marykay has created something so unique and heartwarming -- every open-minded adventurer should include this place as a stop on the bucket list. As for the casual traveler, a couple nights in her garden will erase all stress, even if the alpacas are not your thing. We did not want to leave.

This is not just a physical get away, this is one that speaks to the very SOUL. Marykay is a…read morephenomenal host, but she is also kind, family-oriented, empathic, and offers her own heart as a safe space for EVERYONE to stay. She welcomes everyone here, and I don't mention that lightly in 2021. I used the property for a visual project some years ago, and kept in touch because it was that moving of an experience. And don't get me started on the majesty of the alpacas - my goodness!!! Feeding them carrots might be one of the highlights of the past decade. What a hidden gem right near the city of Atlanta. Do your spirit a favor and definitely visit!

It is a little hard to find, with some road construction on Piedmont, but the provided instructions…read morewere accurate- second house north of 8th, drive slightly obscured by a phone pole. This home is exquisite! I particularly liked entering from the back porch side and being greeted as it immediately gave the mind-set of, "Welcome." And soon after, "Welcome Home." The grounds gardens are an English garden oasis in this Midtown section. The property sits far enough off of Piedmont so that the city noise and traffic is hardly noticeable, yet you are only a couple of blocks from the park and some great restaurants. Everything is wonderful, from the gardens to the architecture and modern upgrades (our shower with ceiling and side wall heads), pasties, snacks, soft drinks at the ready, down to the smaller details like triple sheet bedding and French coffee pressed morning brew. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Our host, Judy, was very personable and we connected with her immediately, especially in discussing our shared faith. The porches are spacious, quiet, and if desired, heated. Breakfast is served at a community style table, which also turned out to be pleasant, simply because the type of patron to this particular sort of inn (Select Registry) must have something in common! In fact, a young couple also staying here unexpectedly showed up at a folk concert we also attended in Kennesaw (25-30 miles North) at a community Church. I believe there are eight rooms in the main house, each with a private and spacious bathroom. Personal entry codes are provided and activated during your stay. We had an absolutely lovely time and will be back!

In our room was a filled ice bucket, water and delicious brownies under a glass dome. The home's surrounding gardens are gorgeous which was perfect to sit and enjoy a glass of wine. The team and owner were also wonderful. Consistent with the rest of our stay, breakfast was a spectacular finish. Highly recommend!

Let's start by saying, please don't waste your time on this place!…read more There is so much to complain about that it would take all day. Key points: Outdated and dirty. The bathtub had a permanent dirt ring around it, and the dressers had missing handles. Because my husband was there for 18 days, he asked in advance for a room with a kitchen so he could cook. There were no pots or pans to be had, only a few plastic spoons. There was a phone, but it had no phone cord! When we asked about a cleaning schedule, a lady said, " You just got here, we don't clean after just a few days, and we don't have anyone to do it until next week." HUH? And we have a towel limit, also only 2. No one knew the code for the laundry room; it took 2 days to get the 1234 code!! The staff was all new, and if we had a complaint on Friday, you were going to have to wait until Monday for the manager. Terrible!!

They accommodated us for the last minute change. The staff is attentive and responsive, as well as courteous and helpful. Several went beyond their job descriptions to assist and offer help to me and my elderly parents. The location is peaceful and relaxing, and there are several dining options to the East and West. They do need to get the swimming pool open again. It looked very nice but said closed. Yes, the furnishings are outdated and rooms are at various stages of updating. But, the bedding is comfortable, with cool AC, desks, working fridge/freezer, microwave, internet, etc. The rooms are clean, well maintained, and all amenities in our rooms worked. Cannot say the same for our stay at the Buckhead LaQuinta who had broken phones and internet. Not a large variety for breakfast but good quality brands of cereal, milk, pastries, yogurt, etc. The coffee is Starbucks and they keep it going hot until 10 pm! I will stay here if my Dad needs to return.
