A delightful home with history and a noisy trout stream just outside your door! With in 5 minutes of Young Harris College, 15 minutes to John Campbell Folk School and Rock Crusher ATV area. You are also within 30 minutes to Helen. Are you a rock hound, the Lapidary School is just a short distance down the road. Love Crane Creek Vineyards? A hop jump and skip down the road and there you are. This cabin is private and secluded but only a short distance back to the main road.

The house was clean and beautiful. The owner was very helpful. The instructions were correct and clear. The perfect location near a creak with so many decks to take in the view. A game room and hot tub to enjoy with the family. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property.

This cabin was a perfect place for my husband and I to get away from the Florida heat and humidity. We loved the location of the cabin. We enjoyed listening to the sounds of the creek rumbling. We loved the hot tub and fireplace. The cabin was comfy and cozy and had welcoming decor. It was located close to several great places to visit. We enjoyed the Crane Creek Vineyards which was located very close to the cabin. We also ventured up to Brasstown Bald to see the highest elevation in Georgia and to Bell Mountain for glorious sunset views of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain and Lake Chatuga! We would love to come back to visit but next time bring the rest of our family! Thank you for sharing Hunker Down Cabin with us!

Nice weekend getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Hunker Down. The hottub and stream were very relaxing. Only downside was that we couldn't figure out any of the tvs and couldn't watch the Georgia game.

Fantastic cabin right on the creek! Very peaceful. Saw deer, squirrels and other wildlife during our stay. Really enjoyed the hot tub, but even better was the jetted tub! We enjoyed our stay on many levels, the great room was very comfortable, the back porch was great and no mosquitoes. The local restaurants are probably all you need, but we ventured to Blairsville, Murphy and Blue Ridge. Everything was in close proximity, so with a couple of meals we made ourselves, there is plenty to eat. Nice decor with very interesting pieces to study. Didn’t want to leave, but we had to come back to our responsibilities, but sure was nice to leave all that behind with the serenity of this lovely mountain house! Hope to see you again soon.

Great for families or couples

House is very beautiful and peaceful. Super quiet, zero distractions, comfy beds, hot water and just overall nice. We were coming as a family but eneded up just being me and my wife. House is a little much for just the two of us we never even went to the 3rd floor but we wanted a king bed. The home did not disappoint. Everymorning we ended up outside for about 2 hours listening to creek and forgot how the time passed. Our only issue which wasnt really a home issue was the driveway which was a little hairy to traverse luckily we brought a truck instead of our car. Me and my wife were very pleased with home. We even starting planning the next trip back with more family and start looking at property for ourselves

Absolutely perfect

I took my three grown sons to the cabin just to reconnect and enjoy some time together just the four of us which we haven’t done since they were kids. A challenge because they each lives in a different state. The directions were spot on. It is beautiful on the outside and I was very pleased with the inside. The cabin was spotless. The view from the decks are amazing. We cooked out as well as spent a lot of time at the creek there is a fire pit at the water. The water was cold but we got in and it was nice to see them enjoy themselves and no cell phones required. T here is a hot tub and a pool table which we enjoyed as well. I think we all wanted to stay longer. We decided to do this every year right here. I have nothing but good things to say about staying here. I look forward to it next year!

So peaceful and relaxing.

Loved the stay. The pool table was warped so we didn't get to use it but overall we had such a great time. The views were so beautiful! The creek was beautiful and peaceful. We were 30 mins from great trails and falls. I would recommend this cabin to anyone with children, this cabin got my teenagers off of there phones. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!

The cabin was very pretty and nicely kept! The heat was a little funky in the master bedroom and the driveway is not made for any car low to the ground but overall it was a great location and we really loved it! The unfinished basement with all the games was definitely a nice plus as well!

This is a great property near a nice lakeside town. Being beside the creek was so relaxing with everything we needed right on the property. Checking in and out was seamless, the home was clean and comfortable, and it was easy to get to without a 4WD/AWD. Thanks for sharing your home!
