Extended weekend getaway

The property was as advertised. It was very clean and comfortable. We had a good bit of rain, so was inside most of our trip, and we still had a great time. We played Pac-Man, Ping Pong, watched movies and read books. We were very happy to have the games and a comfortable cabin to relax in.

Perfect spot

We stayed one night for a wedding at Meadows at Moss Creek (about 17 minutes away). Perfect home for our group. The layout is excellent and we loved the view from the back porch. Owner was very responsive and the best communication from start to finish.

Scenic and conveniently located

Six of us, ranging in age from 3mo to 76y, enjoyed staying at the Toasted Marshmallow. It was conveniently located for us to visit Helen, Dahlonega, Sautee, Cleveland, and Gainesville easily. The house was perfect and we loved the foosball upstairs. The views were great and the neighboring donkeys provided us outdoor entertainment, and we liked the creek on property. Great place to stay!

Nice house, freshly renovated. They have a couple of games electronic, foosball and ping pong. Creek in the backyard, small so it is fun to splash around in. Drive is a bit steep but not bad. The hardest part was pulling in to the neighbors driveway and we noticed it immediately. overall liked it.

5/5 rating!

The cabin is a beautiful space to stay in. I normally have to sanitize everything at a hotel, but I felt it was truly clean here. It was easy to find through gps with easy parking right in front of the house. The view is great and I was tempted to stay on the porch all day instead of explore Helen! I did have one minor inquiry about checking in, and my phone call was promptly answered on the first try. I would definitely return!

Loved it so much wanted to buy it!

What is not to love about this property? It is perfectly situated far enough away from touristy areas yet close enough to get there quickly and easily. In close proximity to groceries, shopping, and medical attention. The property itself is stunning! The house is gorgeous, well-designed, and the perfect fit for our family. The surrounding land is manicured but with wildness right on the edge, a running stream, view of the mountains, fire pit. I don't think we could ask for anything more.

Stayed for a week and it was a perfect location and a wonderful property.

The home was lovely with plenty of room for my family of 6 and our 2 dogs. The wood-burning fireplace was a great place to gather at night for games and movies and the location of the home was perfect. We were close to many of the area's parks, hikes and, of course, Helen. Sunburst Ziplines were a highlight and Tallulah Gorge is a must-visit!! I highly recommend the home if you are visiting the area. We would stay again, most certainly. 5-stars!

Amazing Relaxing Trip

Our family enjoyed this cabin while on a 8 day trip in Helen. It's away from the tourist area but still close enough to do everything you want. Everything was always about 10 minutes away. Our kids enjoyed the creek and watching the deer run through the neighboring farm. Overall we'd stay here again if we returned to the Helen area.

Why they chose this property

This cabin was super fun to design & decorate. Construction finished Oct 2022, this breathtaking cabin is the cabin you want to live in. With an expansive yard, endless views, rushing creek & red barn next door... there is so much to take in. You will not find a more peaceful setting then sitting on the back porch taking in your surroundings!
