We had an excellent time staying at this cabin in the Northern Georgia Mountains! The hosts did an excellent job communicating, both before our arrival and with any questions that arose while we were there. We stayed over Christmas and the hosts did a great job decorating for the season; a homey touch that was definitely welcome as we were traveling with 5 kids all ready for a visit from Santa Claus.Besides the decorations, you could tell how much work the hosts put in to making the cabin ready for guests. The amenities such as coffee and hot chocolate provided were a nice touch; as were all the books, board games, grill, large extendable dining room table that made our trip of 9 people an absolute joy.The views were lovely and all the kids enjoyed playing on the lower level which gave us adults some appreciated quieter time. There were a lot of things to do around town and we chose a few that were great. (Note to future renters, the close-by city of Helen has a beautiful set up for Christmas but do not go on the weekends. We went down mainly for the mountain coaster but it was absolute chaos! Weekdays would probably be a little less busy.) This was our first Christmas spent away from home and it was a wonderful place to make memories!

This place was just what our family needed to catch up! It is inevitable that one of our kids forgets a toothbrush and the host had a spare! My husband also forgot clothes behind which were promptly mailed to us. The kitchen was stocked with an assortment of coffees and spices as well as various cooking items. The little areas for reading were a personal favorite for me! Everything was cozy and warm and our kids loved the bunk room area. It had plenty of space for them to play pool, watch TV, lay down, or play wii.. All in the same area! The location was centered by other neighbors but everyone was very quiet! Highly recommend. Don't pass up on this!

The cabin is cozy and has comfortable beds with quality mattresses which is a big deal to us. We had a great time with our family playing darts, billiards and Wii. The cabin is convenient to restaurants and groceries as well as things to do in the area. The host is great and sends a list of things to do in the area in advance of your stay. We felt very comfortable there. We highly recommend it and we plan on returning soon.

This is a perfect home for large family time, various options available to make memories for all ages. Kid area, adult area, family porch time. Kitchen is large enough for couple cooking. Our weekend focus was GA state Mtn fairgrounds concert series so limited time for other options. Mountain view from porch was wondrful anytime of day. We're saving this place for future stays. Amazing host!!! Easy access with security lock.
