About this property

Spacious Creek-side Home in the Woods near Wineries, Helen and Dahlonega

Nestled in a wooded area located between Dahlonega and Helen, the family-sized home sits on a 1.2 acre wooded lot with two decks overlooking the woods containing a trout stream running year-round. The 4-bed / 4.5-bath, mountain vacation home with 2 bonus rooms with beds, comfortably sleeps 10 across three floors. Five pillow-topped queen beds, single over full bunk bed and an additional single bed provides your group comfortable sleep.

A large, fully equipped kitchen and island as well as the grill under the outdoor gazebo lets you create your favorite dishes for the largest family. You can also relax on a large deck overlooking the woods while listening to the babbling trout stream below or in the 6-person hot tub below. The kids can hang out downstairs playing pool, or foosball. Each bedroom and living room has a 4K smart TV and high speed fiber internet Wi-fi access, so everyone can watch something different. If you are adventurous, try exploring the north Georgia Mountains or panning for gold in the Trout Stream.

The home is a short drive from all the shopping, fun, and events in Alpine Helen. Within a short drive are rivers, waterfalls, Brasstown Bald (highest peak in Georgia), recreation areas, and Dahlonega, the historical gold mining town. Additional area activities include:
- Hiking
- Mountain Biking
- River Tubing & White Water Rafting
- 18 Hole Golf Courses & Miniature Golf
- Horseback Riding
- Go-carting
- Fishing
- Panning for Gold
- Wineries (few miles away!)

It was convenient to Cleveland, Dahlonega and Blue Ridge. There was plenty of space for everyone and the kids really enjoyed the game room. We all enjoyed a fire at the fire pit. The kitchen was amazing with everything we needed. The brook behind the house was beautiful and you can hear it when sitting in the screened porch.

Great time

We loved our stay here! There was a ton of space for everyone to do what they wanted. The creek is a bit of a trek down so my elderly parents couldn’t make it but my kids spent hours there everyday playing and fishing. Highly recommend staying here!

This house has everything! We had a bunch of family together for a wedding and this house was perfect. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and it's equiped with everything you can imagine in the kitchen. It's a quiet location and a beautiful spot on the river. The communication with the owners was seamless and they were super helful and quick to respond. I would definitely rent again. Thank you!

Loved the cabin!

This cabin is beautiful! The kitchen is gorgeous - so much space. Comfy living room area, great dining table that easily fits a large family. It may seem silly, but the first thing that made me so happy was that there are full-length mirrors in each of the bedrooms! Very thoughtful!The creek in the backyard is really nice, a fun area to spend some time exploring. The neighborhood is very quiet. We saw lots of deer, even in the from yard.We were in town for my daughter’s wedding. We were very central to many places. I will definitely try to stay here again next time I’m in the area.

Communication with host was fantastic - thorough and easy. The house looks terrific in the photos and is even better in person.

Beautiful Property

There was ample space enough for our family of 9. Everything was in working order and we loved the tranquil and serene atmosphere. Town was not far and Helen is about 20 minutes away. The creek was beautiful, and they provided walking sticks which was a nice touch. Overall it was a great get away. Will book again.

About the host

Hosted by Rupp Family

Host profile image
We have always enjoyed the beauty of nature but, unfortunately, don't live in an area with the beauty of the north Georgia mountains. However, with our home in the north Georgia Mountains, we can experience the beauty of nature. We believe in family and American values and the north Georgia mountains suits us well, even if only for an occasional visit.

Why they chose this property

We chose our house because we loved the secluded, wooded area and trout stream, yet it is close to Helen, Dahlonega and Cleveland. We also love the place because it is suitable for a family gathering and we have many family gatherings there.

What makes this property unique

When we stay at Mountain Shoals Hideaway, our kids gravitate to the lower level where the game room and games are while us adults can relax on the upper deck. The kids always find something to do and we never have to entertain them unless we take them to the area waterfalls and hiking trails.
