About this property

Rustic cabin with million dollar views!

Beautiful 4 bedroom/3 bath cabin in the north Georgia mountains with breathtaking views of Brasstown Bald, the highest point in Georgia. Convenient location! Enjoy fishing and boating on Lake Chatuge, or take a beautiful drive over the mountains to Helen, Georgia for river rafting in the summer or Octoberfest in the fall. Enjoy the many restaurants and shopping in the quaint town of Hiawassee, or visit nearby wineries along the North Georgia wine trail. Better yet, enjoy the beautiful views from one of 3 decks of this spacious cabin, or just relax in the hot tub outside. Unique rock work, pond and gardens make this a lovely outdoor retreat as well. Plenty of room for a large family with children, or perfect for a couple looking for a quiet weekend away from the stresses of city life. Come and enjoy the serenity of this beautiful mountain home.

Warning on unexpected and bogus charges!

All went well until it was over. Overall the stay was great. Cabin was mostly as advertised. Sadly the owner has charged us a pet fee for finding hair and what they consider a “urine” spot…. All completely bogus …. Well maybe there was hair but of our people staying there were 4 ladies. Who out there shares a house with a lady and how often is there hair debris? Lots! Sad this owner is trying to bully us for extra money for fraudulent reasons. Beware if you want to stay and you have hair, they will assume it’s from a pet and charge you!

The Perfect Hallmark Christmas Cabin

We loved everything about this cabin. The views were amazing. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The cabin was perfectly decorated for Christmas down to the last detail. It felt like we were in a Hallmark Christmas movie. Every room including the bathrooms has little Christmas touches. Any hiccups we experienced were taken care of immediately. We would definitely stay here again especially around Christmas!

10th Anniversary

We were honeymooners the first time we stayed at House of Krauss. You cannot beat this cabin for a romantic couples vacation. Maybe share with another couple. There is room for kids, but we are glad we didn’t have to share. Private hot tub under the stars and a fire pit.

Wonderful weekend getaway

We enjoyed every second of our stay in this gorgeous cabin! Views are absolutely spectacular! We could spend all day sitting in the rocking chairs just staring at the mountains. The cabin is beautifully decorated and very well appointed! We grilled out both nights and spent our evenings around the fire pit enjoying a glass of wine, gorgeous sunsets and then gazing at the magnificent stars after dark. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us! We love your beautiful home and hope to come back one day soon!!

Great Place!!

This house is easy to get to from the Main Rd in Hiawassee. The road to the house was paved, steep but short. You get use to it after the first time. Great view, you can even see Brasstown Bald! Plenty of room, kitchen well equipped, nice bathrooms. Comfortable beds, with views from each bedroom. Children loved the downstairs! Close to grocery stores, and fun outdoor activities.

Great cabin

Beautiful cabin with great views. Location was great and easy to get to. The hosts were awesome. Only problem we had was for those with bad backs – the beds really sag and and need replacing. The cabin is decorated beautifully with lots of attention to details, and hot tub was big and wonderful. Even had a “fairy garden” which our five year old absolutely loved. Lots of great hiking close by and close enough to Hiawassee to go into town when needed, but felt like you were far away. You won’t be disappointed with his cabin!

Great stay

The home owner took great care of us and rectified the one issues we had. The home is beautiful and super cozy. The views are nice and we had the best time playing ping pong. All communication with the host was answered quickly. The town is nice with a lot hiking near by. The host recommended Enrico Italian Restaurant and Brother Restaurant, both were amazing. Very few restaurants in the town are open on Mondays!

My wife and I purchased this house in April of 2007. One year later after an approximate $100,000 in renovations, additional landscaping and furnishings, we opened our vacation home for travelers around the world to enjoy! Our original intent was to enjoy this property in the spring and fall, but we have found that the winter and summer months are spectacular as well. Please enjoy our home and the beauty of the North Georgia Mountains!

Sincerely,
Mark & Suzanne Krause
