The cabin was close to town yet the area was very quiet. The next time I visit this area, I’ll book this cabin (if available) and look no further.

Need to have an iron. Towels are horrible because they were so scratchy. Probably a good idea to put a rug by back door for coming in from hot tub. Otherwise beds were very comfortable. Little disappointed there are no TV s in bedrooms but that’s minor. The place was clean. Driveway was very deeply rutted. Definitely need more gravel. Although we had some negatives, I would stay here again.

We loved the seclusion of the property. We even saw a mama deer and her 2 babies. When we got there on Friday the dishwasher was leaking water, on Saturday maintenance was there around 1:00 to fix. We had 8 people in our party and was expecting a pull out sofa bed that would sleep 2. When we arrived Friday it had rained and the road was hard to maneuver. Other than items listed we were very happy. I especially enjoyed the screened in porch. We would love to come back in the fall.

The inside was very clean and well stocked. The screened in porch was nice for morning coffee and bird watching. The only complaint I have is that the mattresses on the beds are very thin and not comfortable. I would stay here again, but I would bring my own mattress topper.

My group and I were pleasantly surprised when we walked in. The place is large, clean, and modern. The hot tub was closer to the house than the picture seemed. We woke up to deer in the back yard. The proximity to things was convenient. I plan on booking this place in the future!

Enjoyed the stay. The house had a stale air smell to it when we entered but it cleaned out pretty quickly. May have been a while since someone had been in there. Enjoyed the hot tub.

Away From it All and Still So Close

The cabin was very clean and comfortable and a very nice way to kick back and enjoy with the family for a long weekend. We relaxed by the fire pit and took the quick ride into Historic Dahlonega and also visited the little Germantown of Helen for a different platter of German delight!

Secluded property

Property was as described. Communication with property manager was great. We extended our day and they were great about calling us to accommodate. Location is a little bit in the middle of nowhere and you should have an SUV or other vehicle able to get up the road to the property. Really liked the private property.,Super cute home with all that you needed for a long weekend. would rent again.

One issue we had was the furniture in the living room that was very uncomfortable. There should be a sofa or couch to sit on instead of the very uncomfortable futons. The toilet seat in the upstairs bathroom was loose.
