If your looking for that quintessential infinity view of the Blueridge mountains stretching out forever, this is it. Centrally located between Cleveland and Helen it only takes 15 minutes to get to either from the house. Everything is on the main floor and it's just a couple of steps down to the hot tub and Solo type fire pit. This was our second time staying. It's a great place and our host Alan makes the stay even better. Checking in and out was a breeze and he kept us up to date on the drought conditions and restrictions in the area. We've stayed at a lot of properties and this definitely one of the best.

It was a very nice and relaxing stay. If you love the mountains and being out in nature, this is a great place to stay. We are used to mountain roads and thought that the road to the cabin was well maintained. The location is great because it’s close to Helen and Dahlonega. It’s also close to some falls and the Yonah Mountain hiking trail.

The view is worth it. Great location to Helen and wineries. Mountain living at its finest. I would be remiss to not mention the cleaners could do a better job at prepping for incoming stays. I will leave it at that.
Long weekend getaway was perfect. Property view was beautiful and the cabin is well kept, cozy. My family truly enjoyed our time.

About the host
Hosted by Alan Craig
Alan and Sheelyn Craig are originally from Ireland, they live in Ft Lauderdale Florida with their 2 Children Ceile (18) and Cian (17) Cloud 9 is the family's vacation home.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property because of the "Spectacular Views" and amazing location at the top of Yonah Mountain, also because it has a separate guest cabin on the property which gives us adults some quiet time in the main cabin and also because of the great location for hiking and its close proximity to Helen and Unicoi State Park and other local attractions but most importantly the amazing views. The Helen area is the closest our family can get to Ireland without getting on a plane. The cabins are bright and full of atmosphere. Our Children love to go canoeing on the rivers nearby and tubing on the HOOCH. The new Mountain Roller Coaster has now opened in Helen, our whole family loves it. The local people are so warm and friendly, and the area has so many great restaurants and places of interest to visit, we also love the new Brewery "Tantrum" that has just opened at the bottom of Yonah Mountain. We love to hike and spend time outdoors and some of the best hiking in the North Georgia Mountains is right outside the front door of Cloud 9 on Yonah Mountain, which is adjacent to the Chattahoochee National Forrest.
What makes this property unique
Cloud 9 comprises of a main Cabin that sleeps 6 and also a separate rustic guest cabin that sleeps 2 in a queen bed the guest cabin is located at the other end of the lower observation deck. The extra private cabin is great for children, and it is also where the pool table and games are, which gives guests staying in the main cabin their privacy and quite time away from the children etc.
