Very comfortable and relaxing. Our only minor complaint was with lighting... the mix of LED bulbs around the house (especially the ones in the bluer range of color) detracted from the otherwise warm colors of the house.

The view was excellent and it was peaceful. It was about a 25 min drive into Dawsonville. While the place was peaceful, the home itself could use some aesthetically pleasing updates and deeper cleaning.

Beautiful house and very comforting. The view from the main balcony is partially blocked by the trees now. But the master balcony has a great view. All in all it was a great place for us and will definitely consider coming back again.

Unfortunately, due to the rain/fog we didn’t get to see too much of the view, but what we did see was spectacular! The house was nice and clean! We had enough space as a family of 8 to all be comfortable. We cooked almost every meal there. One thing that could be mentioned is that the internet doesn’t work/is so very spotty that it might as well not work. No fault to the owner/manager, but it could pose a problem for some people.

Marvelous Mountain Retreat!

We enjoyed a family reunion here. It was mid-February and very cold, but we stayed warm and cozy inside this beautiful home. The view is incredible! We had been to Amicacola Falls before, and we had a view of the falls and the lodge from the back porches. Eight of us stayed comfortably here. The location is very private and quiet, and it was easy to find. Everything is just as advertised. We will definitely return!
