This is our second stay at the alpaca cottage and we love staying here. The property is great. We loved the outdoor space as the weather was good and it was very pleasant sitting in the garden. The alpacas are always a treat. Mary Kay has always been very responsive and communicative. We also love the location as it is near our son and a lot of Atlanta attractions. This is a magical cottage in a lovely setting

This was such a cheery and cozy cottage! The decor was bright and whimsical, there was SO much attention to detail, the furniture was perfectly comfortable, and we felt like special guests. There were lots of thoughtful "extras" including (to name a few) make-up removal wipes, organic half & half, honey sticks, and carrots to feed the alpacas. The outdoor areas were lovely and the alpacas were AMAZING! This place is a treasure, and we can't wait to return!
