Great cabin, very close to Helen, GA. Great communication with the host, clean rooms, well supplied kitchen, excellent WiFi, hot tub only fits 4, but it felt great on sore muscles after walking all over Helen. Our family of 6 had a great time.

Thank you for your kind words, Krista. My housekeepers said that you would hardly know that anyone had been staying because you left the house so tidy. We want to thank you for being such great guests and you are welcome to come back to Red Star Lodge at any time. Hope you had a chance to give that cool car you brought a great workout in the mountains.

Very clean, comfortable, and well stocked. It was a quiet, secluded location with a great, open sky view from the deck. Comfortable beds, large open living space and game room made it the perfect place for several adult friends to hang out and catch up.
