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!
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.

Great cabin
Excellent cabin. Would stay there again. Great location.
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
Clean, cozy and great location! We had everything we needed and it was convenient to lots of activities. We enjoyed the porch, the pond and the trails on the property. We hope to stay 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.
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.
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!!!!
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
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!
Our stay at the cabin was way more than we expected. I didn’t want to leave!! The cabin is secluded but at the same time is close to the beautiful town of Dahlonega and nice places like wineries and restaurants. Access is easy and is in a beautiful, quiet and peaceful location. It is cozy, cute and has everything you may need. We are definitely looking forward to book it again! Thanks for making our stay one perfect and memorable.

We loved the little details, the hot tub, peaceful, close to town and clean. The back porch had a lot of webs, but that will happen being in the woods. The view is beautiful. Our only wish was more comfortable seating for hanging out.
Coming from Miami Beach where the night and noise never stops, being at the cabin was like Heaven!!! very peaceful and relaxing. a great way to unwind from the stress and noise of the city. The cabin was very clean and orderly and exactly as presented. Thank you.

Awesome Girls Trip
This cabin was perfect for me and two of my best friends! We loved the view of the little pond out of the back door. The cabin was clean and all the linen smelt fresh! The cabin is definitely meant for 2-3 guest. The three of us girls were very happy staying here. It was only 10 minutes to downtown. And was somewhat in the middle of all the main wineries we wanted to visit! Would recommend this cabin to anyone with 1-3 people.
One day, we went to Blue Ridge and rode the train. Next day, we ventured to Helen, GA. Evenings were spent at the cabin. Last night we enjoyed sitting on the swing on the deck. Suggestion is more lamps. We both couldn’t read at the same time!!!
We came up for a week to relax and get a break from everyday life. The cabin was perfect in every way! Sad we had to leave. Cabin was close to a Walmart for any needed necessities and food to cook at the cabin saving us $$$ in going out meal of every day. We were going to try one of the wineries but decided to save that money and have steaks cooked on the grill at the cabin with some pan fried potato’s and broccoli. The view from this cabin was amazing and the lovely swing on the back porch overlooking the pond and view. We saw wild turkeys and deer! It was all very lovely.
We really enjoyed our three day stay. The trail along the pond was a nice little walk. And though the pond is “Catch and Release”, we never caught anything. I was beginning to think there were no fish in there until I saw someone else catch two! Obviously, it was my technique that needed improvement. We were never able to get the WiFi working, which limited our outside communication and Netflix was the only streaming service available. The air conditioner in the bedroom would not work either, so it was a little warm at night in there. The hot tub was great, though the pictures made us think the cabin was more secluded than it is (there are other cabins really close by, so if one is self conscious in a swimsuit, there’s that…). Otherwise, we really enjoyed the stay and would stay there again.

Multiple minor issues with cabin-owner very responsive
Our stay was ok.Cabin is small, but was nice,clean and well stocked. Fit our limited need as it was just a place to lay our heads down for a couple nights.With all the problems would have been less stars except kudos to Amy the owner who was very responsive and I believe if we needed, would have been quick to fix things if we asked. But since it was just a very short very limited need stay for us we told her no need to fix for our short stay. There were multiple minor issues with the cabin; main space AC that was to loud to run and spitting water, wooden slat blinds did not have full functionality in turn rod thus would not completely close flat, bathroom fan very loud, a bedroom door that won't stay closed unless you lock from inside, and a nesting of stinging inects under cabin by front door.Also full charge cleaning fee with an expectation that the guest strips the bed, collects linens together, cleans dries and puts away all dishes and takes out the trash up the stairs to the outside bin (which I know its common place nowadays...but still hard to rate high stars when full clean free is also charged)Amy stated she will be working to fix issues right away.
