Meet-Ups — The Little Cottage

A flexible space for groups that gather

Some events aren't weddings or galas — they're the regular gathering of a group that's outgrown someone's living room or a coffee shop back table. The Little Cottage is a 10,000 square-foot space with the flexibility those groups need: two distinct indoor rooms, three outdoor patios, high-speed Wi-Fi throughout, and 105 free parking spaces just nine miles from downtown Atlanta.

What groups use the space for

Networking and professional meet-ups. Wi-Fi throughout, room for a short talk in one space and open mingling in the other, and parking that doesn't make anyone late.

Clubs and hobby groups. Book clubs, makers, gaming groups, faith and community organizations — a blank-canvas layout you can arrange however your meeting runs.

Reunions and social gatherings. Family reunions, class reunions, and milestone get-togethers, with indoor comfort and outdoor patios for kids and conversation.

Recurring community events. Weekday and off-peak availability makes a regular cadence affordable, with a transparent rate card and no surprise fees.
