This stay is truly all about the location. Located on two acres of idyllic land near the Rich Mountain Wildlife Management Area, you will find yourself waking up in your own oasis every day. With the gentle sounds of Big Creek urging you to enjoy the sunshine and the day ahead, find yourself exploring not only the main home, but also the guest house, the party barn, the 100-year-old barn, and the expansive outdoor living space. When venturing away from your retreat check out the Lilly Pad Village, a gem-mining, mini-golf, and fishing attraction (8.8 miles), Fall Branch Falls (11.3 miles), Aska Trail System (11.7 miles), Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests (12 miles), and the Bear Claw Vineyards & Winery (21.2 miles).

Soaking up every second of peace is easy to do at this stunning property. Inside the main home find yourself still appreciating the beauty of your surroundings through the plentiful, bright windows. Indulge yourself by reading a book in front of the fireplace, or by sharing a story with those you love across the ample seating in the main living areas. A classic gaming system offers itself for spirited competition. Multiple well-equipped kitchen spaces come with stainless steel appliances and a variety of handy utensils. The rustic, cabin-style decor is tastefully spread throughout the rooms, eliciting a cheery and homey vibe, no matter which room you call your own. The party barn includes a playful game room that boasts a flat screen TV, Ping-Pong table, pool table, foosball table, a mini basketball game, arcade games, and a board game collection. Central air-conditioning and a private washer/dryer tie together all of the great amenities that make this stay so desirable.

When it comes to venturing outside, find yourself enjoying a calming stroll over the two-footbridges, playing outdoor games in the enormous grassy areas which surround the property, soaking in the private hot tub, and enjoying a fire in the creekside firepit. The multiple swinging chairs spread across this retreat make for the perfect location to enjoy a tasty beverage, have a meaningful conversation, or just appreciate the natural beauty of Georgia and a wonderful vacation you won't be forgetting anytime soon.

Nice setting but had a lot of issues
We enjoyed the property - it has a unique setting on the stream with a small island. There is a lot of stairs. We had trouble getting the doors to unlock and no internet. So we had to drive to town on day two to call for help. They spent the afternoon at the property with the local cable crew reinstalling the line to the house. Wasn't ideal to have them for most of the afternoon. There were broken chairs plastic and wooden around the firepits - and a pile of them (broken) tossed off to the side from previous guests. Two games in the party barn didn't work. The grill up by the hot tub didn't work so we had to carry everything back and forth from the main house to lower house in order to grill meals. The display on the stove was spinning and blinking - but seemed to work although the oven took longer than it should have. None of the solar "christmas" lights strung on both bridges and the wagon out front worked. And there were christmas trees still up and lit in the lower buildings along with Thanksgiving/Fall decor throughout the property - much of it falling over and disintegrating. There was a lot of material in the yard from trees and backed up river debris. We used it for firewood but it seemed that the actual owner doesn't come here much. It's a nice setting and property but doesn't seem to get much maintenance with the decor/outdoor furnishings. The upstairs lights were blinking along with the kitchen overhead light/fan. We decided to turn them off.

Family Christmas Trip
Plenty of room for 10 as long as you are ok with some staying in cottage. Plenty of room for us to together. Party barn was great except heat could not warm area up to be comfortable in the winter. In the main house it's a trip to get to the top of the steps with all the luggage etc. We had small issue with access to small cottage but management was quick to resolve issue. Water froze on the morning of our departure. Management responded to that quickly. Overall great trip hot tub was great and everything was clean. We had blast...

Lovely and cozy location, but in need of repairs
This small rental is located in a cozy valley directly next to a babbling creek with beautiful scenery. Though located near other cabins, it's private and away from a lot of traffic. We had a lovely time, but there were several things that did take away from the trip. 1. Location of the driveway is quite a trip to the front door. Be aware that you must climb several sets of steps to get to the entrance. It made for a tricky trip between the car toting luggage and coolers. We knew this was the case so weren't surprised, but just be aware someone with difficulty climbing stairs will have a hard time. 2. Much smaller space than anticipated. It's known that most listings take photos specifically to make the space appear larger, but we were truly shocked how small the home was. There were four adults and one child in the main cabin, which made for cramped space. The listing is a bit misleading with the 3 bathroom detail. There is a full-sized bathroom on the main level, but the upstairs is a half bath, no shower, with slanted ceilings making the room very cramped. We bumped our heads multiple times and had a difficult time moving in the small space. It made for a tricky time for showers, having to take turns and wait for the main level shower. The upstairs bedroom is also quite small with slanted ceilings causing us to bump our heads a few times. 3. Multiple repairs and shoddy construction work. The upstairs bathroom had a separate bowl sink which was completely unattached causing water to pour down the back of the sink. There was no caulking or anything to seal down the sink. The doors did not fit correctly in the doorframes causing the doors to stick and not properly close. One of the cabinet doors was hanging off the hinge. Just a few areas we noticed in need of repair. 4. Poor cleaning prior to arrival. Most dishes we had to rewash as they had food and drink stains in the cups/plates. 5. Party barn and separate quarters was definitely a bonus! The barn portion had a nice, spacious living area- much bigger than the main cabin. Nice, renovated bathroom with standing shower. Two queen beds in the bedroom, nice and spacious. The party barn was a fun addition with ping pong table and arcade games. Overall we had a great stay, but likely would not return with our party size. The views and lovely location made up for a lot of the issues. We enjoyed time around the firepit and enjoying the creek and scenery. We did have to contact Vacasa on arrival as our door code did not work. They were very prompt and professional, great customer service.

Very relaxing for all ages
Family of 6 (ages 10-49). Was relaxing for all and entertaining for the smaller ones. The party barn is a major plus for kids as well as adults. We will definitely book again.

Relaxing retreat… very peaceful
My family and I had a wonderful stay. Hosts were easy to get a hold of and they allowed for an early check in. The property is lovely and spread out. The cleanliness of the party barn left a bit to be desired but they offered to send out a cleaning crew. I had already taken care of it however. We loved the fire pits, hot tub, and listening to the stream. Both the guest house and the main house had ample sitting areas to eat and have lazy conversation afterwards. We also hiked by the Swinging Bridge and Amicolola Falls, both of which were lovely. Overall, a wonderful trip and property. We hope to return one day!
