A wooden well house, built in 1881 with lattice and shingle details, has been restored by the Friends of Decatur Cemetery (FODC).

A special section exists for burial of cremated remains; the cemetery also contains a pond stocked with fish.

The forested ravine east of the cemetery includes a newly completed pedestrian path which winds over a tributary of Peachtree Creek.

[citation needed] At the southeast corner of the cemetery there is a grove of giant bamboo, some with trunks over 20 cm in diameter.

A short path leads through this grove to the end of the Ponce de Leon Court Historic District.
