Now that our three sons are grown and out of the home, we plan a family weekend every fall where we can all be together. This home was perfect for us. Each couple had their own bedroom, the deck was great for us to hang out and visit, the hot tub was a big hit as well as the game room, and the kitchen was well stocked for meal prep.

Great property. Upstairs was perfect for family time and downstairs for the younger adults who wanted to stay up late playing pool. Would have liked two extra high top chairs for dining table to seat all 6 of us.

Relaxing vacation

We had a great stay. The water access was so nice. The kids and I went on several walks in the stream and had a great time. Fishing from just out back was fun and there was a local fishing spot (Shooting Creek) just about 5 minutes from the house. The hot tub was nice and relaxing at the end of the day. There is no cellphone service but the WiFi signal was perfect. Overall, great stay.

Great cabin! Even nicer than the photos!

A great cabin for a couple or couple with kids! Easy to find, very well appointed and cozy, and all the amenities you need for a getaway. The cabin is even nicer than the photos appear! We enjoyed warming up in the hot tub and listening to the river. If you're going in the winter, make sure you have a proper 4-wheel-drive vehicle if the weather is bad as the driveway is very steep.

Beautiful Setting

We had a relaxing week, the weather was perfect and the cabin was spacious with an amazing view. The cabin was clean, exactly as described & my 5 year old grandson let us know, as he climbed into the hot tub, that “He could get used to this.” The family had a great time in the game room, enjoyed the music amazing gazebo swing, & cooled off in the river. I would love to go back in the fall.

Beautiful Location!

We had a slight hiccup with the HVAC when we arrived and it was very cold in the house, but I only mention it to brag on the owners for their hospitality and the way they handled the situation. They went above and beyond to make things right and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is very clean and the deck overlooking the creek is spectacular! We will be back!

Amazing hiking close by (siler bald is a must if you love hiking like we do) downtown Helen was great for shopping and the kids. We've stayed in the area every year for many years and this was by far my favorite stay for a family!! Snowed our last day which was so magical by the river.

Birthday getaway

We celebrated my 60th birthday with rest and relaxation. This place fit perfectly for us. Home was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Master bed was very nice and firm. Hot tub was very clean and relaxing. The water had slight sulfur smell but no worries for us, it was probably well water but didn't bother my girlfriend or me at all. The creek was cold and refreshing and we saw nice sized trout. We had a great time and hope to come again

Amazing Mountain Getaway

We had an amazing weekend getaway. The cabin was immaculate and cozy. It had everything anyone could need for a peaceful and quite getaway ... from the hot tub on the back deck over looking the water with a grill and access to the living room and both bedrooms. The king size bed was very comfortable. We will definitely go back. This was our first time renting a cabin and the process was easy and any questions we had were answered. The whole process was a wonderful experience. ;)

Why Do You Need A Buyer's Agent?
First of All Having a Buyer's Agent Does Not Add to your Cost.
The seller along with the seller's agent pays the buyer's agent fee. Many buyers mistakenly believe they would get a better deal if they do not use a buyer's agent. They assume that since the seller has to pay the agent a commission, they would be willing to pass those savings on to the buyer if they do not use an agent. This is NOT true. In fact, seller's agents charge the same price regardless of whether or not you use an agent.

Here are a few things a buyer's agent does:

Helps you through the negotiating process. This is probably the most important part of having an agent represent you. The agent working for the builder or seller has one job and that is to sell you a home – maximizing the profits for their seller. You have to understand everything you're signing including addendums to the contract, possible delays, what would happen if your current home doesn't sell, etc. The most important thing to remember is that a buyer's agent helps walk you through everything step by step and works FOR YOU, not the seller.
Makes sure you don't overpay for a home. If you buy your home directly from the seller's agent they are only looking out for the seller's interests. A buyer's agent will provide you with valuable comparable properties and five you their opinion of the value.
Much, much more!
A buyer's agent is a valuable asset to any home purchase and should never be considered an unnecessary part of the process.
