Great cabin!

It is an amazing cabin! The wood work is phenomenal! No curtains but there is no one to see you and it gives great views of the surrounding woods. Had a young bear go by one day. Easy check in and plenty of room! Upstairs A/c struggles to keep up in summer. Otherwise a great stay we would do again!

Mountain Vacation

Great area, beautiful cabin. Kitchen lacks some items, but that’s to be expected in a house that is a full-time rental. Clean and very beautiful log cabin handiwork, excellent balconies. Full privacy and Mountain Views but lots of towns and things to do nearby. Made the perfect space for myself, spouse and our cat. Excellent for big families.

Beautiful and secluded cabin

The cabin is situated in a scenic part of the highlands, well off the busy Georgia road but close enough to allow fast travel to multiple state parks. We were thrilled by the spacious interior and the copious deck space. Comfortable Adirondack chairs, the propane grill and three bathrooms were a plus as well. We would absolutely stay again!

Great dog friendly cabin

We loved staying in this cabin. It had everything we needed and is in a great location. Our dog stayed too and that was an added bonus. My only recommendation is, because it is a dog friendly cabin, to include dog friendly places/things to do in your book. That would be an added bonus!!! We will stay again!

Fall Getaway

Home was as shown in the listing, it was a true log cabin. The kitchen had everything one needs and the bed was very comfortable. If you follow the instructions about how to drive up the driveway, it is no problem. The added bonus was the circle drive that makes exiting very easy. This area, north Ga. southwest NC, had an amazing amount of things to do. I would highly recommend this property.

Autry

Great home for the price. It was located a short drive from Franklin NC and Clayton GA, which are both great towns to park and walk around in. When we arrived, the power was out in the area and the host were quick to respond to us and stayed in contact with us until the power was restored in the area. We will definitely stay here again when we are in the area.

Great Value!

This size of the place and being pet-friendly was very attractive and did not disappoint. It was hot and sunny during our stay and the upstairs air conditioning was a bit weak - my wife and I are both warm sleepers so this was our only wish for better cooling. Otherwise, the place was great and we really enjoyed our time - the architecture of the interior and the porches make it a truly relaxing escape!

Nice cabin!

Cabin was great! Beautiful wood throughout! Kitchen was really great: hot water quickly delivered from faucet, large work areas, full fridge, electric stove. Location was close to everything but still far out enough to have plenty of privacy. The only downside was the upstairs Master Bedroom A/C couldn't keep up with the summer heat. We planned on extending our stay but decided against it because of the A/C. This would be a Beautiful place in the Fall or Winter. We plan to return.

Beautiful Cabin

If I were building a log cabin it would look like this! Large yet cozy. Very comfortable. Also there were some issues that I though the owner should be aware of and when I brought them to his attention he responded almost immediately and was so grateful for the information provided. Overall, really good experience for my family.
