Fantastic cabin rental for our family. Rustic but simultaneously immaculately clean, Sammy’s Lodge served as an excellent alternative to a hotel stay while we were visiting family in Bowdon. We have already recommended the cabin to other family members, and we would stay here again!

Tranquility and Style

The beautiful property is secluded enough for relaxation, yet only 10 minutes from the grocer. The cabin is very well put together using what appears to be reclaimed/refurbished materials from the period. It has all the moderns of today with the feel of 'Grampa's Cabin'.We hope to make this our regular accommodations while visiting nearby family. Thanks for the memories!

This cabin was perfect for our stay. Extremely private and the landscaping is beautiful. So much attention to detail. Everything was exactly as advertised. We've been using vrbo for years and this cabin was one of the absolute best!

About the host

Hosted by Jaymie Helton

Hello! I’m Jaymie and I’ll be your host for your stay. I was in ophthalmology for 11 years before retiring to raise my two awesome kiddos and help my husband run our property management company. We have worked very hard to ensure a great experience for you during your stay. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have and we sincerely hope you relax, unplug, and make great memories!

What makes this property unique

Sammy's Lodge is a rustic country cabin experience and the cabin itself has several unique characteristics such as an antique copper tub and sink, and vintage metal kitchen cabinets . Cleanliness is our top priority and we utilize a professional cleaning team to sanitize and clean the cabin top to bottom after every guest. With that said, Sammy's Lodge has wood floors and walls which can make it more difficult to keep it completely dust free. Over time copper can oxidize leaving oxidation stains, and metal can become rusted or worn. These aging "flaws" are part of what bring charm and character to Sammy's Lodge and we hope you appreciate it as much as we do.
