Relaxing getaway

The house was wonderful. Beautiful location. Very quiet and secluded. The house was one of the cleanest we have ever stayed at. The place and the view are better than the pictures show. We will definitely be staying here again when coming to the area.

Amazing rental

This was your far the best cabin rental we have had to date. The owners were very responsive to any questions. The view and the home amazing. Plenty of wood for the fire pit, a nice clean grill and gas fire place inside and out. Everything thing was easy to use and understand. We loved the covered car porch as well! The road in was a beautiful drive. We will stay here again!

Beautiful view

Beautiful views in a quiet neighborhood! We loved our stay! While we were there a company was supposed to come out and asphalt the driveway and the property management team was very nice and communicated everything with us and even said they would be there while they were working on the driveway to assure that we would not be blocked in/out. We had no issues and would definitely recommend!!!

Amazing Cabin in Private Setting

We had a fantastic weekend of games, campfires, and cookouts. Beautiful cabin and scenery. Attentive hosts. High quality towels and plenty of them (not always the case with rental properties!) Games, puzzles, & novels available for entertainment. Kitchen is well stocked with cookware, utensils & dishes. The only thing renters should be aware of is the gravel drive is very steep, and was difficult to climb in a sedan & minivan- use a 4 wheel drive vehicle if available.

Cozy Mountain View Cabin

My husband and I absolutely loved this cabin. Beautiful mountain view, spacious, cozy. We made good use of both the fireplace inside and out on the deck. We only used the master bedroom, bed was comfy and the shower was relaxing. Adventurous and safe to drive to the cabin. The second floor was just as cozy as the rest of the home. It was also great to read the comments in the guest book from previous vacationers. Paul and Pam were great in communicating with us throughout our stay. We kept telling each other we definitely will be back with family and friends. Thanks again for such a lovingly home. The Ocasio Family , Central Florida

Spectacular view

It was quite a climb to get there but the view when you walk in the front door will be worth it! This would be a great spot for a family or couples. A little big for just my husband and I but we thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities. The hot tub was very relaxing after a day spent hiking or exploring. Although you feel so very removed from everything, it is actually a short drive to several different towns. We loved Helen! My only complaint is the master bed being a memory foam mattress. They are not comfortable to me and I might have chosen another cabin if that were specified in the listing. Some love them, Im personally not a fan. All else was wonderful!

Heart of the Mountain

Wonderful experience for my wife's birthday surprise trip from start to finish for the whole family; kids ages 1-9. Very warm responsive communications throughout. The cabin has beautiful architecture, is beautifully appointed AND nothing dangerous/fragile in reach of a toddler. The big kids LOVED the spiral staircase -parents too :). Kitchen was lovely and very well stocked with everything we needed. Game selection was perfect for mountain cabin, kids even discovered a large tin of Lincoln Logs! All the beds were very comfortable and inviting after a long hike down into and up out of Tallulah Gorge. Warm evenings enjoying the easy gas fires in the very comfortable living room and porch were only topped by the splendid morning view from the bedroom door of those misty blue mountains.

Lazy bear cabin

Cabin was great but I didn’t realize the hot tub was not on right out bedroom door and you had to go down a couple of flights of stairs to get under the house /porch to use it. I don’t do stairs well so this was a small set back and I wasn’t able to enjoy it because of that and it was just to cold to get in and have to walk that far wet in the cold. Other than that it was an awesome cabin. Well kept and super clean!!!
