BEAUTIFUL property, there’s a really nice brook just behind the house which was perfect background noise for a quiet sit on the porch. Host very communicative and helpful. Had a great trip, will save this property for a return visit for sure.
Cabin was excellent! Well stocked kitchen, comfy furniture and all the extras! Location is perfect as well. Located 20 minutes or less from hiking, wineries, restaurants, bars, several small towns to explore. Great communication with questions being answered and extra bonus info given. We will be back!
Despite if you surprises at the cabin, my overall stay was great. The cabin was exactly as pictured. Cute, quiet, comfortable and relaxing. The scenery was very green and quiet. The cabin was neat, in great condition. Equipped with everything you need. The beds were comfortable and the showers were nice and warm. It had its own pond. The hostess Lynn was extremely responsive and accommodating. The cabin is about 40’minutes away from shopping and restaurants. Instacart will deliver. I would definitely recommend renting this place.
By far the cleanest amd best appointed VRBO I have ver stayed at. Communication was seamless. The house was spotless, and the kitchen had everything one might need.
We always greatly enjoy our Thanksgiving stay at this cabin. We really love the wood fires and appreciate the quiet and nature. The location near Dahlonega is very convenient for restaurants and shopping. The property manager is terrific to work with.

The cabin was very clean and located just a few miles from the Wineries. we had a great stay. Lynn was very accommodating and very easy to work with. Will definitely stay there on our next winery trip
This cabin was the perfect getaway for Christmas! Our kids loved running in the yard and having fires outside in the firepit. It was so peaceful! We will definitely be returning!
Went and stayed for Christmas in Dahlonega with my kids and husband. The cabin far exceeded our expectations out of all the places we have stayed before. Unbelievably clean and just absolutely beautiful. We hope to stay there again in the future!

Hosted by Lynn Clarke
This cabin has been in our family for 17 years, and is our personal vacation home, and has tremendous sentimental value, so we take great pride in its appearance and maintenance.
Why they chose this property
This cabin is my haven when I need some ME time and to get some rest. My work is in Florida but my heart is in the North Georgia Mountains. It occurred to me that others may need the same get away that I do, so I lease the cabin when I am not using it. Once you visit I know you will fall in love with it as I have...Robert
What makes this property unique
Most unique is its location. Surrounding me is pasture, lots of trees and a creek meanders down one side. In front is a small pond where you can try your hand at fishing. There is a large gray crane 'we call Henry' that hangs around pond looking for frogs. Past guest have seen deer and turkey milling around for food. In late afternoon you can enjoy a roaring fire in the pit next to the pond and try your hand at making S'mores.. When you are ready to explore, a short walk down the road will bring you to a large creek and forest service property marked with red paint. Take all the time you wish to explore and even do a little gold panning in creek.
