Why the Owner Chose Helen
I've traveled all over the US and this is where I decided to stay,I didn't even know Georgia HAD mountains till I came out here for a visit!! I love it here, the people here are wonderful, helpful and friendly. The country is beyond belief, with waterfalls, natural settings and wildlife, you will not find a better place. I love having, deer, turkey, hawks, eagles, beaver, river otter etc.. in my back yard...it's never a dull moment.
The Unique Benefits at this House Cabin Cottage
We've lived in this area on the river for over 13 years. My kids grew up swimming, kayaking,and jumping off the rope swing in our back yard. Can't beat it!!
There is so much to do it here, hiking, kayaking, tubing, shopping etc..etc.. can't think of living anywhere else.
We loved it so much we decided to share it with others.
As you can see it is a very private area, with little or no homes close by
This area is a favorite with kids and families. Has a slide and 2nd rope swing. Also has a sandy beach for kids and get set of shouls the kids love to play on.

By: Mary Li Creasy This property is fabulous! The location is very private yet close to all the N. Ga. mountain attractions. We loved seeing the deer and wild turkeys on the property, tubing on the river, the hot tub, panning for gold, fising and hiking Brass Town Bald, Unicoi and Anna Ruby Falls. The cottage itself couldn''t be lovelier and the owner thought of everything. A real home away from home retreat. We are looking forward to returning in the fall! Service: 5 Value: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Overall: 5 By: Frank Castillo As an outdoors enthusiast, I love to hike, moutain bike and such. Living in Florida, without mountains is not as exciting as with them. After many years of staying at "adequate" cabins in Georgia and North Carolina, I FINALLY found one that is close to home that felt like home, but yet gave that "vacation-get-a-way from it all" feeling. Speaking with Nancy on the phone made me feel like I made the right choice, and after driving up through the woods and making that turn - seeing the house upon the hill was jaw dropping, tongue swaying, eyes bugging GORGEOUS! Upon entering the house, seeing the immaculant wood flooring, clean like new kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms (upstairs and downstairs), the awesome fireplace, and the spectacular view of the river from the screened in porch with the Hot Tub - I was in heaven. With Helen only a few easy to drive miles away, we had everything near us to do. My girlfriend Theresa and I even easily drove to Charlotte (about 2 1/2 hours) for a football game. The cabin in within an easy drive of MANY MANY hiking trails (it was winter so no white water rafting)but shopping in Helen and Dehalanega. Nancy was an awesome host - thanks for the SpiderMan video - she was there when we needed her, and out of sight when we didn''t. My friends and I HIGHLY reccommend Nanna''s Cabin. Definately Gold Star Service. Service: 5 Value: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Overall: 5

By: Kirk and Leticia Hall We have rented a "cabin" several times before in Helen, but this was by far the most memorable. At last, we found a place that captured the "feel and atmosphere" of the mountains. The cottage was so charming and we loved the feather down beds! We enjoyed the hot tub while being able to view the river. We went canoing, fishing and cuddled by the fireplace at night. This place offered something for the kids and the adults. We did not want to leave! I recommend this to anyone who enjoys privacy, nature and spending quality time with their loved ones. What an experience! Nancy could not have been more accomodating. We will definitely be back, and so will our friends and family! Service: 5 Value: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Overall: 5
