The Mountain Laurel worked well for us to access various entry points on the AT. The owner clearly takes pride in his property. We enjoyed the view from the front porch and the hot tub.

Enjoyed the cabin and set up. Just would be helpful to know there is limited cell service and also provide a guide for the TV. Was not used to steaming.

The cabin was spotless and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was peaceful and provided the perfect escape. I highly recommend this peaceful and clean cabin for anyone looking for a rejuvenating getaway.
Cabin and Hot tub were great! Bed was comfy!
Weather was beautiful! Georgi Mountain Fall Fest and music was lots of fun. We love Hiawassee.

Relaxing Getaway
If you’re looking for a place to hide away from everything and everyone for a little while this is the place. I really enjoyed the outdoor hot tub while being surrounded by nature. Everything was clean. The beds were comfortable. And you’re not too far away from local accommodations like a grocery store, gas station, etc all within 15 minutes. Tons of hiking, and Helen was only a 30 minute drive.

Perfect Getaway Cabin!
The property is exactly as described. Tastefully furnished and very comfortable. We loved the jacuzzi spa and fire pit outside each evening. Woke up to a young deer our last morning there! We highly recommend and hope we can return soon. Beautiful location near to many activities and towns. Five stars!
My daughter, granddaughter and I enjoyed a quiet relaxing stay at your cabin. Everything was exactly as portrayed on the website. The cabin was clean and had all the necessary amenities.

Relaxing & clean accommodations
We spent two nights in this homey and very clean cabin. The kitchen was well stocked with items to prepare meals. We spent most of our time on the inviting porch looking at the beautiful mountains & lush surroundings. It is obvious that the owners take good care of this property. It was super clean. We will be back!
Home was very nice and clean. We made sure to use the hot tub to relax at night. We would rent it again. Make sure you know that third bedroom is on overlook to living room if privacy is an issue and you had a crowd which we did not. Perfect get away for our weekend away.

Thanks for your review of our cabin Jeff! We are glad that you all used that wonderful hot tub and enjoyed the cabin! We hope to have you all back again for another visit!
We really loved staying at this cabin! The cabin was super clean and fully stocked. The hot tub was large and really nice. The view is amazing. When we go to cabins, we normally don’t have comfortable seating for our family to watch a movie at night. The seating here was perfect. Very easy check in and check out and communication was simple. There were many hikes nearby for us to do each day. We would stay here again!!
The house is beautiful and the location is quiet and serene. This was the perfect escape for the weekend. The house was well stocked with the things we needed (dishes, cookware, firewood, etc.) My only complaint is that I wish we had booked for longer. Bonus: We got to meet the owners and they are as lovely as the house. Thank you! We will be back!

Thanks Nichole for visiting with us at the cabin in Hiawassee! We are so glad to hear of your enjoyable time and hope to have you all back again for a longer visit!
Pros: Very nice and clean property. Hot tub was a great addition after long hikes. Great location. Close to town and nearby attractions. Property is very private and well taken care of.
Cons: when power is out due to storms/ rain be prepared to have to water either. 2 out of 4 nights we had no power in the evening or/and night.
Wifi is available but very weak connectivity.
