  My friends and I stayed at this cabin for two nights for a birthday celebration. There was plenty of room, and the place was warm. The cabin sits on the side of a mountain, and so to an extent it was hard to access. The Hot tub was not in a place where it was easily accessible and so we didnt use it. Also, it was below freezing. There was little as far as basic provisions are concerned. In other places I have stayed there were some staple items (i.e., coffee, dish soap, seasoning items in the pantry, etc). We had to purchase everything like that we wanted. Again, not that big of a deal, just depends on what kind of experience you want. It was very comfortable and warm and rustic. Worked out perfectly for a bunch of guys. We didnt turn the TV on the whole time because we had so much fun just hanging out. The porch has a fantastic view. My only real critique is the water pipes in the cold weather. Yes, there was a disclaimer about keeping the water dripping. However, when we left during the day and the temperature dropped, it took no time for the pipes to freeze and our water to be gone. Thanks to ingenuity, some of the guys were able to fix it by taking hair dryers to the water pipe below and thawing it out. But for that, the last night there would not have been as pleasant. Fireplace did not work. Overall, the experience was good. There were just a few nit-picky things you may want to consider when renting this cabin. Pretty good for the price you pay.

  Recommended for: Adventure seekers.

  Owner response: Thank you for your comments. In reference to the fireplace.. since we have a new cedar shake roof so we choose not to allow gas fires/ woodburning fires in the fireplace and have provided an electric fireplace in front of the stone one. Concerning the water.. we are subject to all the pipes on the mountain so when it gets really cold in the mornings it is common for a little bit of issues.

  I was here for a girl's getaway weekend - keep in mind we're from Atlanta and most of us are not used to "roughing it." :) Pros: The views were outstanding. I loved the hammock and the chairs on the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee. I felt like I was in a different world! The cabin is perched on the mountainside (and is half on stilts). Really peaceful area. Main bedroom bed was super comfortable. The bear in the living room is cute. Clean, cozy, and cute. Nice looking refinished kitchen. Bathroom was refinished too. Hiking trails nearby that led us to waterfalls! Loved the Cupboard Kitchen for breakfest - so tasty and fresh! Tiger Mountain Winery was lovely; the owners / workers were so personable and helped us obtain reservations for a restaurant that night. Very inexpensive tasting menu ($5 to taste around 10 wines!!). The Chop House at LaPrade’s on Lake Burton was a great place for dinner. A bit fancy with a lodge feel. Photos posted are accurate. Cons: The heater was confusing to use and it was hard to get a good temp - either too hot or too cold. The stairs on the outside / walking down to the cabin were steep and uneven. Extremely charming and fine in the day, but it was kind of scary to walk on them at night with lack of light (especially since there was a bit of a heel on my boots!). No dishwasher in the kitchen - opted to have wine fridge instead. Oh the driveway... it was very steep and intimidating to me. Luckily, I was not the driver. Daytime was tough to navigate, and nighttime was not fun. There was space up top on the road for 2 cars max. We made the mistake of arriving at night (which owner did warn us about, but I just couldn't leave work early that day). Drive up the mountain in the dark for the first time was nail-biting. Bottom Line - I would return to this cabin, but it may be hard on older folks and / or toddlers.

  When we arrived at the property we were very discouraged with nothing working in the cabin. Jacuzzi not turned on with no instructions and was never usable the whole stay, dish box was hanging in pieces, no TV, my husband had to fix the dish box and satellite, fan light in the kitchen had only one bulb out of 3, linens were to be included, we were given 2 washcloths, 2 hand towels, & 8 bath towels only, front blind didn't work so my husband had to fix the blind so we could see the view, blender was covered in gunk, hammock was just the frame, regular bulbs in the flood lights, light under microwave didn't work, upstairs sink was loose, electronic locks on the shed and cabin didn't consistently work, driveway was very steep and had very little gravel and was covered in weeds so when it rained the driveway was unusable. I emailed the owners regarding all the issues we had and I have never heard back from them.

  The view here is unbelievable! The house was really nice as well. Pleanty of places to sleep and lot of things to do. We played golf at the local resort where you can see the cabin on top of the mountain. We also went whitewater rafting on the Chatooga nearby. The location is perfect and the view is breathtaking. Highly recommend this place. The only downfall would be the parking. We almost got stuck coming up the driveway, and there is not much room to manuver. This is understandable since you are on top of a mountain. Will go back for sure!

  My wife, dog, and I stayed at this cabin over the weekend! It is in a fabulous location in the North Georgia Mountains and has a beautiful view off the back deck. The cabin was VERY clean and all instructions left by the owner were clear and easy to read. Plan to stay again soon and tell family and friends!

  I was in charge of booking my family reunion and was pleased to find a cabin that could handle our group and on top of that it was decorated in cute themes. Hiking minutes away and make sure to try the Tiger Drive inn for movies.

  We love this cabin........we have been there 2 times in the last year. We love nothing better than sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee and looking over the valley. Huge cabin and always perfect with the beautiful upgrades. Will be back next year.
