Cool Off in ATL

If you're planning a trip to Atlanta, you probably already have a couple of activities lined up in the city. Burgers at The Varsity. A World of Coca-Cola tour. A stroll around Piedmont Park. But if you're looking for a vacation rental with a private pool, you'll find the best options in some of Atlanta's suburban neighborhoods, where there's more space. Here are some Atlanta Airbnbs and Vrbos offering private pools to cool off under the hot Georgia sun.
