Better have a 4WD/AWD.

We loved the seclusion of this property. It was a chore to get to the cabin though. We traded my wife's 2WD Nissan Rogue in for a new Subaru Crosstrek AWD the day before our trip and it was the right move. It is summer and it rains at night making very peaceful to just sit on the porch and have a beer and listen to the rain. Everything was fantastic. The cabin was perfect for us for our anniversary trip.

It was so peaceful and relaxing! Not too far from town, but far enough to be 'away from it all.' the cabin was clean and cozy, and the woods are pristine. We will definitely be back!

Misleading

The cabin itself was as described however the pictures were misleading-your view is nothing but woods. Very secluded. Had to buy batteries for Directv remote control to use.

Nature but not Nurture

The cabin was a decent getaway, but there were a few problems that took away from the experience. The most pressing one being the fact that there was no blender to use or complimentary coffee/condiments/etc. The left bed was comfortable but the right bed was one of the least comfortable beds we have slept on. Additionally, there were no trails or anything like a nature walk within reasonable walking distance of the cabin. Overall it wasn't the best stay but it was pretty decent. A 4x4 is not necessary but rather a decent 4x2 truck or car will suffice in dry/lightly wet conditions.

HORRIBLE drive!

The drive off the main road was HORRIBLE!!!! I drive a low profile car so getting in and out was a challenge. All I could smell was burnt rubber from trying to get out of the driveway. The road was only the size of one lane. Passing other vehicles and going around blind curves was scary. I rather drive in Atlanta rush hour than to drive to this cabin again. We rented for 3 nights but only stayed one. We rented a place in Helen that was much nicer and cheaper! The mattresses were old and were sagging to the middle of the bed. Other than these two complaints, the cabin was nice.

Thank you for your review, Krista. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced. We do state on the listing that 4 wheel drive is required to reach this home year round due to its remote location. We have passed your feedback to our local manager for review. We hope to host you in the future!

Check in process

The check in process was not convenient. The instructions for check in and the key pad were not the same as what was actually at the cabin. The instructions did not give us what we needed. The keypad did not work but there was a key that we found ourselves. The instructions spoke nothing about an actual key. Once we got someone on the phone from Vacasa we were able to access the key from the lock box. Just overall not a fun check in experience and no actual owner to speak to. I didn’t like going thru another party to get information. I didn’t feel safe or secure staying there. We almost left and got a hotel elsewhere. The lights in the bathroom didn’t work, the instructions for the heat didn’t match up to what was actually there.

Absolute Worst

We couldn't even stay here. It says 4WD recommended, well I have a F350 4WD and we had to be towed out the very first day - twice. My truck didn't fit in the driveway, well, the front half of my vehicle did, but not the bed of the truck, it blocked the road. Once down the hill, we couldn't get back out of the driveway - at all. We had to be very carefully wenched he'd back out the driveway and up the hill. The location is absolutely ridiculous. The description is very inaccurate and the photos are deceiving on what will fit in the driveway. We ended up having to find a hotel in the middle of the night due to not being able to get in and out of the cabin. We didn't even stay one night here. I messaged and messaged the property managers about having to be towed and all they told me over and over again was that 4WD was recommended. What a joke they are. Zero help from the property owner/manager. Would not ever recommend this place to anyone. Ever. No matter what type of vehicle you have.

Legué a la propiedad casi llegando la noche , cuando entré a ver donde quedaba ,el camino era muy complicado de subir y solo una entrada y salida muy estrecha, nunca describen las condiciones de llegar al lugar , solo a último mandaron un mensaje que se recomendaba y vehículo 4 /4 , pues se complicó a la entrada y no fue fácil encontrar la cabaña estaba metida en un Barranco , no hay luces afuera y llegamos Justo al anochecer . No salimos de la zona hasta pasado las 3 noches , caminar era tan empinado que decidimos quedarnos y disfrutar de la vista , olor a humedad fue lo que invadió al entrar pero es normal en ese tipo de propiedad y estar todo encerrado ,solo que luego el último día nos quedamos sin luz y llámanos 3 veces sin tener solución alguna solo que lo lamentan mucho , pero la solución no llego y lo más tremendo fue que no había nada para alumbrar ,oscuridad total una linterna que te alumbra la nariz , para una emergencia de esas no tiene nada . Salimos en la mañana y no pude salir con mi camioneta de la rampa , volvía a llamar y solo lo lamento contesto el operario sin resolver nada , solo dijo que yo llamara a un servicio de grúa . Así que pase tres dias pésimos , no lo recomiendo a nadie sin saber que el lugar no es para cualquiera manejarlo sin un vehículo 4/4 , y que no resuelven nada ,de las veces que llame jamás lograron comunicarse con el personal de servicio , así ellos decían . Ojalá pueda servir la información para que la gente no rente un lugar así .

This place needs a few upgrades.

The cabin was clean and private. However, it needs a few upgrades. The kitchen was a little sparsely equipped. The can opener did not work and needs to be replaced. The mattress and pillows in the left bedroom were VERY uncomfortable and should be replaced. The gravel road to the cabin was difficult to navigate even with all-wheel drive. That should be made more clear in the listing.

Nice but rough

First to start off sent email and no response back. No internet but lucky it was cable with selected shows. Road really need to be leveled out if not paving the road. Much needed!!! Trash was on the side of the cabin. The toilet had to be cleaned. And the final night before departure a Bear must have taken the garbage can!

We got in late on our arrival date and the lights were left on for us. I was so thankful for that . We also loved the hot tub. It had plenty of towels . It was cold when we took our trip and the cabin warmed up fast. Nice and quiet stay. We had no problems.

Cabin in the mountains

This was a beautiful cabin. The directions was missing a key road so we drove around trying to find the cabin for 1 1/2 hours before the management of the property was able to help. Dishes were dirty. We had to clean them before we used them. The anxiety of the roads and mountains were too much for me.

Nice!

Very secluded and the home was clean. The only reason I have it 3 stars is because the hot tub was FILTHY. They say it's drained refilled and cleaned, but there was a brown film on the sides and the water was cloudy. Disappointing! But the cabin overall was nice.
