The property was more than we needed actually. Turns out only four were able to go on the trip so most of the cabin wasn’t even used. Quiet area and beautiful scenery right from the cabin. Thank you for sharing your piece of Heaven with us. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely perfect
We had an amazing time and I cant say enough positive things. The house set up perfectly for our 4 families with each having their own space. We loved the labeling so we didnt spend time figuring out light switches and where things went. The open yard and games were fun and the firepit was a great ending to our day. I would highly recommend!

Fireside Chat was the perfect get away!
Fireside Chat was perfect! Each bedroom has its own bathroom, the kitchen was well stocked, and the porch with just what we needed to soak up the beautiful view! There were plenty of games, we especially enjoyed the giant connect four. We did not use the fire pit, but will definitely use it for our next visit. We had an incredible stay!

Awesome Stay
We stayed here for 5 nights. The home was very clean and the views were great. The home had a great “cabin” feel, but with all the modern comforts. Every bedroom had its own bathroom, which was really nice for the guests. The home also had excellent WiFi/internet. It was an easy drive to both Helen and Cleveland. We were in the area for a wedding at CeNita Vineyard and the drive there was easy as well. We would definitely recommend the rental to others.

We loved our time at this property!
From booking to check out, our experience could not have been better. When I booked the property, I did not indicate that I was a veteran. I emailed Jessica and she immediately credited me with the discount. The property is beautiful: spacious great room with towering ceiling, well appointed kitchen, wood burning fireplace, comfortable furniture (including beds). For a property of this size, very reasonable daily rate when you factor in it can accommodate 10 (3 King beds and a Queen bunk bed) and everyone had their own restroom! The hot tub was also outstanding and the night star views were amazing. The views at this property are unparalleled for this area of north Georgia and the cabin is quiet and easily accessible. While it did not snow during our trip, like most properties, a 4WD would be required if wintery mix conditions existed. But that’s part of the reason the cabin location and views are so amazing. Cleveland is nearby with an Ingles (firewood supply for us) and we recommend Clyde’s in Cleveland as well (Jessica provided 10% off coupons for use at Clyde’s and several other eateries). We had the best chicken legs and wings we’ve ever tasted at Clyde’s! Helen is also a short drive away with its Bavarian charm, shopping and eating. Decorated for Christmas was also a bonus. Speaking of which, we were so happy to see that the cabin was decorated, including a tree and Christmas village! We will definitely stay here again!
