Such a cozy, comfortable home. Unfortunately it rained almost the entire time so we were happy we could relax in the hot tub. We hope to return someday!
Welcoming and accommodating host. Had some hiccups with internet and Amy was more than apologetic and accommodating for the situation. We loved our stay and will definitely be visiting again. Loved sitting on the porch and watching the wildlife. Otters in the morning, deer in the afternoon.
It is a perfect cabin for two. It has all the comforts of home. The bed was softer than my back likes, but it was very comfortable. The hot tub was the best way to end our day. I stayed here 2 years ago with my best friend and loved it so much I brought my husband.
Cute cabin, beautiful surroundings. Very peaceful. A couple of minor mechanical issues, but nothing serious.

From the owner: "Hey Mark! Thank you for booking with us and glad you had a great time. We are unaware of any mechanical issues and would have helped if it had been brought to our attention. Our contact information is posted in the cabin and we are always available to assist in any way. We would love to host you again."
We had the best time staying here :) The place was clean and perfect for 2 people. The area is quiet and you can hear the nightlife. The patio with the hot tub definitely was our favorite place, so so relaxing! Will definitely be renting here again

Mountain Life
My small family loved the cabin had fun hiking and fishing throughout the area. Everything at the cabin worked as it should. We loved the rustic look of the inside of the cabin. If ever in the area will be looking to stay again.
The cabin was a wonderful retreat from the world. Warm and snug interiors with everything needed to escape the world for a bit. I would love to stay again. Be mindful that the road to the cabin is hilly and one way. Fortunately, no one else was going the opposite way when we came in each day. Have a decent car and you’re good to go. Such a lovely little place.
Was just as presented. Just the right size for two. Think my favorite feature besides the very comfy bed was the porch swingthe perfect bed was the porch
Overall great stay. Close to town & wineries. Hot tub was a plus on the deck. Thankful for the gas fireplace on a cold weekend. Nice peaceful area & nice touches in a cozy cabin for a long weekend away in the North Georgia mountains.
Great spot to get away and decompress. Perfect for a couple or small family. Tucked away enough to feel remote with a pond out back and trails along a stream, but still only a few minutes from town, wineries, etc. Cabin was clean and cozy, with helpful instructions on how to use the hot tub, grill, tv, etc. We loved it!
We had the best time just sitting on the swing and watching the fish and turtles and enjoying each others company! The cabin was awesome and we definitely will be coming back!! The bed was terrific! Again great cabin #8! Perfect for a weekend getaway!!!!
