This privately owned, family mountain retreat is tucked away between historic Nacoochee Valley and Unicoi State Park – convenient to Helen, Unicoi State Park, Clarkesville, and Cleveland.

Perfect for a quiet forest getaway! You can hear the gentle rustling of the creek from every room through the magnolia trees. Minutes from Helen and Anna Ruby falls too! Great host, Don is very attentive to the guests and makes sure your expectations are met from the very beginning and he isn't satisfied if you agent satisfied. Definitely recommend sharing at this property and I'll be back again!

We had an amazing stay at this cabin! The location is incredibly quiet and sitting right beside a small creek meant we got to fall asleep to the sound of running water every night—it was so relaxing.Don met us at check-in to do a personal walkthrough and ensure everything met our expectations. He was super nice and made us feel right at home. We have absolutely no complaints and would love to stay here again!

Our trip at this cabin was good the house was great and very good with communication! There’s lots to do in the area. My only issue was trying to get to the cabin there’s a shallow creek to the entrance that you have to cross over . If you have a low vehicle this isn’t quite a good idea going over.

Cozy and warm. Clean and great atmosphere. I would sit more on the porch swing and listen to the calm creek no more than 5yards away. Great place to unplug and unwind. Everything is in close proximity maybe 15min to Helen.

The Best Cozy Cabin

If you’re looking for a peaceful cozy cabin, this is it! Surrounded by nature and a beautiful creek right outside, it gives you an off the grid mountain feel while still having all the amenities you could want AND is still very close to everything you could ever want to see and do in town. We look forward to staying here again in the future and will be highly recommending it for anyone looking for a cozy place to stay!

Absolutely relaxing and secluded, beautiful cabin steps from a serene creek. Don was super nice and everything was great. Tucked away in the mountain laurel but close enough to do activities in Unicoi or Helen. We saw a momma bear with three cubs at Unicoi state park, incredible….Kids had a blast, Dan

Great experience from the time of check in where Don met is and showed us around. Cabin was perfect for us and our puppy. Great location that was close to all our activities.
