This property was so home-like and comfortable for our family. It has the most beautiful view of the mountains and the porch area was a great place to just hangout peacefully and enjoy the scenery. We had a great experience.
Beautiful place to stay. Excellent location, view of Helen and mountains. Very clean and spacious with great amenities.Host was very friendly and helpful in preparing for our stay.I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in Helen, GA. Would gladly stay there again!
We had a large group stay for a weekend retreat here and everything was fantastic. The posting matched our expectations and the cabin was great. Everyone enjoyed their experience. The communication with the owners went above and beyond since we had to reschedule our booking due to an ice storm. Overall, highly recommend.
Cabin was exactly as described with the most beautiful view and very conveniently located for downtown access. Hostess was very accommodating and responsive!!
This is by far the nicest VRBO we have ever rented. Most every one has something we don’t love but is usually good enough. Not this one. Teresa’s house is spotless- even up high on the decorations. In addition, the beds are comfortable and the layout is wonderful for a large group. We had 15 people for a family reunion and it was very spacious still. The kitchen is stocked better than any I have ever seen. Have a favorite style of coffee mug? I guarantee she has one in there. So many plates and dishes. So much dining space. But the real gem is the back deck. I can’t even describe how much we loved it. Our entire family was able to sit out there each evening and tell stories with the Mountain View in the background and the fire glowing. Nobody was even tempted to pick up a phone. Thank you Teresa!! You were lovely to work with.

It means everything to us to get a review like that. Thank you again for entrusting us with opportunity to host your vacation!
Thanks

Everything was absolutely wonderful. The location was perfect and very convenient to town but private. The views from the house was spectacular. The house was very clean and well equipped with anything you could possibly need. It’s a true family home. Our family had a wonderful stay and will Definetly be back!!!
This rental is top notch! Everything is as advertised or better. Our group of 12 adults and 9 children fit comfortably. Beds and linens were comfortable and in great supply. The kitchen was well stocked and you can’t beat the location. Teresa answered our few questions promptly and was very helpful. Though we didn’t use them on this visit, the grills are nicer than most rentals and the firewood was provided. We are planning to come back!
We had an incredible time at the property! We especially loved the huge outdoor deck space and gorgeous views. Being able to walk to town was also incredibly convenient! We would definitely stay here again.
The house, location and views were great. Owner was so nice and helpful! The house was great to be able to spread out and enjoy ourselves. We would definitely stay here again!

It was our pleasure to host your stay in Helen! Thank you for leaving the lodge in excellent condition. We hope to have you back soon!
We stayed here for a company fishing trip and had the most relaxing weekend! The weather didn't go well for fishing, but the team-building was priceless. I would definitely stay here again. The location was perfect for us.
Awesome place. We had a family reunion there with 16 people. Enough room for everyone. Host was available and responded quickly. The place is very close to Helen, but very private when you get back. The hill is steep to walk to Helen for us older folks, but a piece of cake for those in shape. Overall, an excellent stay and would come back again.
We stayed at this property for Thanksgiving and it was perfect. It fit our family with lots of room to spread out. The view was gorgeous and the owners thought of everything! We will definitely be back!!
Excellent cabin in great location! Surprised my wife for her 60th birthday, five of our adult children and their families stayed… plenty of room to spread out, had a great time!
Property was awesome

6 couples and plenty of room.
Highly recommended and will stay at this house again

About the host
Hosted by Teresa & Megan
This is our families happy place. We purchased this lodge with investment in mind but also a place where our family and many others can have a place to gather without having to stay in separate locations. Having the large dining and living areas gives a place to sit and just relax without having to meet up at loud restaurants.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the charm and warmth the minute we walked in. This lodge has so much to offer small groups, or large gatherings with comfort and convenience. We feel the living area is inviting and comfortable to just sit quietly or have a fun gathering with many friends and family. This place gives privacy due to location on top of White Strasse overlooking Helen. White Strasse is located right in downtown with access to parking at the park right in downtown Helen.
What makes this property unique
Views of Mt Yonah and Sal Mountain are breathtaking the moment you walk in the front door!
