About this property

Settin' on the Creek - Let Your Cares Drift Away!

This cabin is cozy on the inside and out! Once you arrive, you will be drawn to the sound of the babbling creek in the back yard. Sit in the gazebo and let your cares drift away. There is also a bench swing and an outdoor fire pit with seating all around. Relax in the hot tub after a day exploring the beautiful Helen area. This cabin is pet-friendly, so don't leave home without the doggie!

Enter the cabin through the front door and feel right at home in the large living room and open dining room. Sit back on the brand new leather furniture and watch your favorite show or sport on the smart TV through the free YouTube TV subscription. During the cooler months, start a fire in the wood burning fireplace to set the perfect atmosphere in your cabin getaway.

The kitchen features a small breakfast counter, stove/oven, microwave and full size refrigerator. There's both a standard drip coffee maker and a Keurig for your convenience. Bring your coffee and condiments for a cup of joe just the way you like it. The washer and dryer are located in the laundry room just next to the dining area.

There is a king bedroom with private bath on each side of the living room. The bedrooms have a smart TV, too! Each bathroom has tub/shower combinations and a single vanity.

We loved the area / property! It was as described and very comfortable. Hellen was an enjoyable area to visit! The weather was marvelious. We had no trouble following the arrival suggestions. The only negatives were the condition of the 1) access road, which would be troublesome during wet weather and 2) the house floor needed to be mopped.We really enjoyed the house and will return!

Easter getaway

After driving through downtown Helen GA for many years we finally decided to make a weekend out of it. The cabin was clean and perfectly located within a short distance of downtown Helen. There is an outdoor gazebo that is situated over a small creek that offers a perfect backdrop for a nighttime fire. Checking in with the management company was quick and easy. Their continued follow up throughput our stay was very convenient. If you have never stayed in the area, I recommend reading the local paper the cabin provided at check in.

Great Getaway

Cabin was exactly as shown. Super clean. Relaxing location yet within short driving distance to the town of Helen and many other places. We went to Blue Ridge, Blairsville, Cleveland, Anna Ruby Falls, Mount Yonah Trail and Brasstown Ball. Even took a partial day trip to Athens to visit the U of Georgia. Came back each night to a comfortable and relaxing evening at the cabin. Had everything we needed during our stay. Would definitely recommend this cabin.

Lovely stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My mother and I had a lovely week-long stay in this cabin. It was close enough to Helen and other areas of interest but still afforded peace and tranquility while "at home" during our stay. Everything was clean and well-stocked, and the creek in the backyard was a nice place to sit and relax. Additionally, as a storm approached the area during our stay, the management team reached out to make sure we were safe. I would highly recommend this cabin and this management team to anyone visiting the area.

Our stay at the cabin

Very nice location. Easy check in process and accessories at the cabin. About 3 miles from Helen which was perfect. If you want a nice quiet location, this is it. Has a nice outer enclosed, air conditioned porch. We absolutely would recommend it and plan to stay again soon.

Relaxing stay!

Great cabin in the woods in a good location! Loved the fact that both bedrooms had king size beds! When you have 4 adults traveling that makes it even better....no one likes to sleep in a twin bed....the hot tub was also welcome in the cool evenings, and the bubble of the little creek by the gazebo was very nice!

Reviewer Comments: We had a great time ventured out to the different areas Was disappointed that the closest grocery store was in Cleveland it appeared that y’all did not have much rain the creek we considered a ditch and whoever blew the leaves blew a lot into the creek we had to remove the mound of leaves to hear it flow I would like to recommend Brasstown Bald it was the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen

Yearly Trip to the Georgia Mountains

My family and I love to visit Helen every year for the Alpine Volks Fair, and we love Georgia Mountain Rentals. This cabin was close to where we wanted to be and had all the comforts of home. We especially love that we can bring our Bostie. We're already looking forward to our next trip!
