I enjoyed my stay. I was quiet, peaceful, and just what the doctor ordered. I was impressed with how many places there were to visit nearby. The highest mountain in Georgia was only 20 minutes away. Helen was only 20 minutes away. The town of Hiawassee was delightful. Thanks, Willene!

We had a fabulous stay. Willene was a super host. It was so relaxing to sit on the porch, drinking our morning coffee, listening to the waterfall and watching the hummingbird. We'll definitely be back.

Beautiful property with small waterfall, with a rain it was impressive, but the sound of the waterfall was comforting no matter its size. The home is around 900 sqft which was quite nice.We stayed six weeks. Wilene the host was responsive. The location was a perfect and we spent many days exploring the area. As others have mentioned we did clean up cabin to meet our personal standards. Everything was great!

Willene’s cabin has everything you could possibly need and she is extremely accommodating and will make sure your stay is amazingly perfect. You are close to so many wonderful adventures and the beautiful mountains. Truly loved the cabin and the view is so peaceful and beautiful. I mean a waterfall as you sit on the porch listening to the water and the birds. Nature at its best absolutely peaceful as God’s slice of Heaven. I was taught to leave the place better than you found it. My only regret is we didn’t get to meet sweet Willene in person so I hope to return for another vacation getaway. Just tap that Book It button you will truly enjoy your stay a home away from home. Thank you for a very relaxing long weekend. Judi and Marla

Great getaway cabin located in a beautiful, secluded, wooded area. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, and you can't beat the view from the covered back deck, while listening to the little waterfall trickling down the mountain. The cabin is very clean, comfortable, and roomy, and offers all the comforts of home.This was our second stay, and we plan to return again in September. This is the perfect spot for nature lovers seeking a quiet, relaxing setting, and the dogs will love it too!

We absolutely loved our cabin rental and meeting the host, Willene. The cabin was very clean, roomy, comfy and cute. The best part was relaxing on the back deck overlookingthe little waterfall, and listening to the peaceful sounds of nature. The location is nice, quiet, private, and convenient to Hiawassee for dining, shopping, sightseeing, and outdoor activities. Our dogs loved being able to hang out with us too. We've already booked our next stay in June, and can't wait to go back!

Very nice place to stay. Felt like home and the owner met us when we got there. Very nice lady was a great help as we planned our hikes for the week. I will stay here again when I come back. Situated between Hiawassee and Helen was a perfect position to hit many of the trailheads that we wanted

Willene was a wonderful host, she took time out of her Thanksgiving just to personally welcome us to the property! Mornings on the porch were so relaxing, and though the property is pretty isolated, there's plenty of nature and attractions nearby. We love our stay!

We had an excellent stay! The house is very comfortable. The reason we visited was to see the town of Helen and ride the Blue Ridge scenic railway. We had a great time at both. Our host recommended we visit Brasstown Bald and a couple of other places and they didn’t disappoint! We would highly recommend staying here. If you are looking for a place the escape the noise and the hustle and bustle of the world, this is your place to go!
