This cabin is cozy on the inside and out! Once you arrive, you will be drawn to the sound of the babbling creek in the back yard. Sit in the gazebo and let your cares drift away.

Cabin was exactly as shown. Super clean. Relaxing location yet within short driving distance to the town of Helen and many other places. We went to Blue Ridge, Blairsville, Cleveland, Anna Ruby Falls, Mount Yonah Trail and Brasstown Ball. Even took a partial day trip to Athens to visit the U of Georgia. Came back each night to a comfortable and relaxing evening at the cabin. Had everything we needed during our stay. Would definitely recommend this cabin.

My mother and I had a lovely week-long stay in this cabin. It was close enough to Helen and other areas of interest but still afforded peace and tranquility while "at home" during our stay. Everything was clean and well-stocked, and the creek in the backyard was a nice place to sit and relax. Additionally, as a storm approached the area during our stay, the management team reached out to make sure we were safe. I would highly recommend this cabin and this management team to anyone visiting the area.

The cabin was exceptionally clean and comfortable for the 3 nights we stayed. The king sized beds felt firm the first night but I got used to them. The water pressure was amazing and the location was peaceful. Very close to Helen and other interesting sites. Overall we were very happy with it. Also the customer service team were prompt and friendly to work with.
Loved the cozy yet spacious cabin with separate king sized rooms with en suites either side of the lounge and Kitchen.Enjoyed the jacuzzi during snow flurries while the lads went disc golfing. Plenty of towels to make that happen.Thank you had a fabulous time.

I absolutely adore this cabin! This is my second time booking it for my birthday getaway to Helen, GA, and it never fails to impress. The thoughtful birthday surprise and gift basket left for me truly touched my heart and made my stay even more special. The cabin itself is incredibly cozy, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring the charming town. I especially loved unwinding in the hot tub—it was such a blissful way to relax after all the walking. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for anyone looking for a memorable stay. A solid 10/10!

The property is exactly as described and as seen in the pictures. We had a fabulous time just relaxing in the hot tub, sitting in the gazebo over the Creek listening to the water flow, we grilled out on the back deck and enjoyed the sun setting through the trees. So close to downtown Helen you could be at Betty's Country Store in less than 10 minutes. Perfectly laid out cabin for a friend's getaway or two couples. We have already shared the cabin and cabin company info with several friends and are already planning our next trip!!
The cabin was well stocked with linens, towels, and soap. I really liked the layout of the cabin. The gazebo at the creek was a quiet place to reflect. Being close to Helen wasa bonus

We had a great time ventured out to the different areas Was disappointed that the closest grocery store was in Cleveland it appeared that y’all did not have much rain the creek we considered a ditch and whoever blew the leaves blew a lot into the creek we had to remove the mound of leaves to hear it flow I would like to recommend Brasstown Bald it was the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen

Overall a great stay! Cabin was clean and well kept. The layout was nice with the bedrooms being on opposite ends of the cabin, it had an extension at the back which was my favorite part of the cabin where you can have your morning coffee and watch the sunrise on a rocking chair in a cozy and warm environment, water pressure was good, and kitchen was well stocked. Georgia Rental's customer service was excellent. The old coffeemaker needed to be replaced and they did so promptly the next day. Sherry and Jessica were very helpful.I would recommend this cabin to a friend. We went around Helen, GA for the first time, and there is a number of good restaurants away from the touristy part which in my opinion was offering better food such as Hoochee's River Basket, Nacoochee Village Tavern & Pizzeria, Betty's Country Store, and Creekstone Winery.I look forward to coming back and staying with Georgia Rental again.

This was our first time visiting Helen, GA and we really enjoyed our stay in this lovely and cozy cabin. The pictures and description of the cabin were accurate and everything was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the fire pit each evening and appreciated that our dog could join us as well. We will definitely be back and thank you for the friendly customer service.
Very nice location. Easy check in process and accessories at the cabin. About 3 miles from Helen which was perfect. If you want a nice quiet location, this is it. Has a nice outer enclosed, air conditioned porch. We absolutely would recommend it and plan to stay again soon.
Sometimes life can get stressful so its always a great idea to get away for a few days alone with your spouse to reconnect to each other and back to nature. The location and cabin was perfect.
I’ll start by saying do not follow the GPS when arriving from Florida. Do not be like us, follow the directions that are given. We ended up on a dirt road in the dark with cliffs on both sides of us. We should have listened. When we arrived, alive and well, the property exceeded our expectations. A literal cabin in the woods, minutes from town. We stayed for 3 nights. On our second day it was rainy and I couldn’t have been more grateful for the rain. We stayed in the cabin with the fire going all day watching movies, eating snacks, and taking dips in the hot tub. The property was so clean with plenty of room for four people. We would definitely stay again!
Great cabin in the woods in a good location! Loved the fact that both bedrooms had king size beds! When you have 4 adults traveling that makes it even better....no one likes to sleep in a twin bed....the hot tub was also welcome in the cool evenings, and the bubble of the little creek by the gazebo was very nice!
