Why the Owner Chose Sautee

My mother is from Germany. The town of Helen is very unique due to its Bavarian theme. It allows those traveling in the southeast to experience a small taste of Bavaria. Many people travel to this area because of Helen and everything this region has to offer.

The Unique Benefits at this Cabin

Our place is for those who want to relax and feel like you are staying at someone's home not a rental. We offer a 3 level 3BR & 3BA home on 3.5 wooded fenced acres. It is private, relaxing, comfortable, inviting, easy and convenient to Helen without being in Helen. We are just 3 miles from Helen. This is our home - it is decorated with a warm feel and has it all from slippers to everything a gourmet chef would need. All you have to bring is yourself, clothes and food.

Owner's Map of Sautee

The Smokerise Cabin is owned by Mike and Lucy Stricklin. We purchased the property as a second home until we could possibly retire there. Some friends suggested we rent in the meantime so we tried it. We had never rented before so we didn't know what to expect. We have been so pleased by the number of quality renters who have appreciated our home the way we do. Come enjoy the North Georgia Mountains in a relaxed setting... you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful Relaxing Visit

Guest: Gary & Donna Hopson (Jacksonville, FL)
Date of Stay: 01/07/12 Review Submitted: 01/17/12

My wife, our three dogs, and I just returned from our annual visit to this cabin. Words really can not express how relaxing the cabin and area are. Not to mention how beautiful it is! Once you drive into the yard and close the gate it is like you are leaving behind all of the stress and worries of your day to day life. Every year we add a few more days to our stay. This year we stayed for a week. Mike, the owner, is great to work with and although he does not live nearby he has some wonderful housekeepers. The cabin is always very clean and welcoming. Our dogs are able to be off leash and run the 3.5 acres free. They absolutely love it. My wife and I enjoy the peace and quiet, sitting by the fireplace, walking with our dogs around the property, sitting outside with a fire in the fire ring, and of course the hot tub - It is wonderful! We will be making another trip later this year or the beginning of next year. We hope to bring our grandchildren. We think they would have such a wonderful time!The best description I can come up for this cabin and property is a piece of heaven on earth!!

Dogs and people loved it!

Guest: A.L. (Panama City FL)
Date of Stay: 10/05/11 Review Submitted: 10/10/11

This cabin delivers exactly what it promises. Easy reservation process, helpful owner,peaceful, peaceful get-away close to nice dining and activities. We saw lots of birds, a herd of wild turkeys and even a bear! (Bear was not on the cabin property, so no worries.). Dogs loved the freedom to run & chase the squirrels. We enjoyed the artisan shops in Sautee, Hofer's and The Old Bavarian Inn in Helen for authentic German cuisine. But mostly we liked hanging around the cabin. :)

Perfect Property!

Guest: Amy & Mike (Bluffton, South Carolina)
Date of Stay: 09/02/11 Review Submitted: 09/22/11

My family and I stayed at the Smokerise Cabin in September over Labor Day, it was absolutely wonderful. The deck is huge; perfect for morning coffee and evening cook outs. The layout of the cabin is perfect with the open living room and private room on the lower level. We loved the yard, completely fenced in and plenty of space for Baylee to RUN! Mike was a pleasure to deal with even after we accidentally brought the keys home :oI We sincerely apologize for all of the trouble that may have caused! I can’t say enough positive things about this property, it was gorgeous, the kitchen was well equipped and the cabin is in wonderful shape. The town of Helen is adorable and just a short drive. Thanks you for sharing your home with us.

This cabin is a treasure!

Guest: Mike and Amy (Daphne, Alabama)
Date of Stay: 07/18/11 Review Submitted: 07/23/11

This cabin was the perfect location for my family's summer vacation! It was super clean, extremely comfortable, tastefully decorated, and fully stocked. My two teenagers each enjoyed having their own rooms and bathrooms and were tickled to have WiFi there in the middle of the woods! My husband and I loved the comfy king-sized bed, and having a kitchen where we could comfortabley cook our family meals. The hot tub was awesome, the fire pit was alot of fun, and the pool table in the game room provided lots of family laughs. It was awesome to be in such a private, serene setting, while at the same time being only minutes from the things we love to do: tubing, going to sliding rock, whitewater rafting. Our two dogs loved being able to roam around the property, and because it is fenced in we weren't nervous to let them do so. Mike was wonderful to work with and the cabin was as beautiful and clean as the pictures on the listing. Even though we have only been home a few hours we are already thinking of when we can be there again. We loved it!

Smokerise Cabin

Guest: Janico (Vero Beach, FL)
Date of Stay: 06/26/11 Review Submitted: 07/15/11

The cabin was clean, cozy and well furnished. My family and I had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed sitting on the porch with our morning coffee , relaxing in the big hot tub, and spending our evenings out by the fire pit watching the fireflies. The owner of this cabin was friendly and quick to respond when we contacted him. I would recommend this cabin to others looking to stay near Helen or the surrounding communities. We enjoyed tubing and shopping at Betty's Country Store. We also enjoyed hiking and swimming at Unicoi State Park, visiting the Gourd Place, and eating at Glenda's (in Cleveland) and Hofman's (in Helen). We also had a nice time visiting with several local potters. Thanks again for sharing your cabin with us. We had a great time!

Date of Stay: 03/31/11 Review Submitted: 04/11/11

My husband and I recently enjoyed our third visit to Smokerise in the last 6 months. We love it because it is private yet close to Helen, it has all the comforts of home and then some, the fenced-in 3 acre yard is a dream for our boxer, and Mike the owner is simply wonderful. We will be back again soon!

Our Second Stay At This Cabin, Gary, Donna, Savannah, Eli

Guest: Gary & Donna Hopson (Jacksonville, FL)
Date of Stay: 03/09/11 Review Submitted: 03/16/11

We just returned from our second visit to this lovely cabin. My wife and I took our two great danes and went on our annual "puppy" vacation to the mountains. Our dogs love being in the woods and able to run free off of their leashes. The whole 3.5 acres is fenced and we do not have to worry about them. They spent most of their time exploring! The cabin is wonderful. It is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Both of our stays so far have been for four days. We are now planning our next trip to this cabin and we are going to stay a week! It is the most stress free place we have ever been. The hot tub is very relaxing and sitting around the fire ring at night was great! Sitting on the porch early in the morning drinking our coffee and listening to all of the birds chirping and the sounds of the forest was unbelievably relaxing. There are many things to do and see in the area but even if you desire to just stay at the cabin and do nothing but relax it is well worth the trip.

This is a beautiful cabin. Great views on the decks and very comfortable inside. All the chairs were so cozy. The bed rooms were decorated nicely and carried on the theme of the cabin. I am looking forward to returning. My dogs had wonderful time exploring and they were always within calling area.
