Enjoy your stay in the Atlanta/Decatur area in the private second-floor suite at Garden House Bed & Breakfast, a 1950's bungalow in the close-in Decatur / Clairemont neighborhood. The comfortable suite, decorated in deep greens and dark plum includes a large bedroom with a beautifully carved queen-size bed and huge closet; a sitting room with cable television, desk, worktable and a sofa which makes into a bed; and a large private bath. A crib is also available for little ones.

For your enjoyment, you are welcome to relax on the spacious screen porch overlooking gardens and a pond with a waterfall. We provide refreshments, a library with a variety of books, a smoke-free environment, and fresh flowers from the garden in your room.

Whatever your tastes or dietary requirements, Rhoda and Doug always enjoy preparing something special. Rhoda is famous for her cinnamon rolls and muffins. Doug prepares a true Southern breakfast.

We know that some of our visitors may have chemical sensitivity. So, when we clean our B&B suite, we only use natural cleaners... no harsh chemicals.

We have a Marta bus stop at the corner of Garden Lane, which can take you to the Decatur Marta Station, located 4 blocks from our home.
