The vacation rental management staff at Georgia Mountain Rentals was very nice and friendly. They called and checked on us when we first got there to make sure everything was good and to see if we had any problems with anything. I would use Georgia Mountain Rentals again in the future when planning a vacation in the area.

It is in a wooded area about 6 miles or less to Helen, Ga. The hot tub was great. We enjoyed a fire in the firepit outback. Rockers on the front porch. There are a few cabins around but spaced out enough for privacy. I have rented from Georgia Mountain Rentals before and the staff is always friendly and helpful and has good rates. I highly recommend them! Dwayne & Denise

    This cabin was everything we wanted for an end of the year get away. It was cozy, the heater worked perfectly and kept us warm, the woods were quiet and peaceful and the directions were definitely needed because our GPS took us the wrong way. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

    It was okay. The initial getting there was hectic because we were there to help with my brother's wedding, and having all the calls and emails, and having to do all the follow-up, was time-consuming and not at all relaxing to think about on top of everything else. Additionally, the internet was not working, but we didn't have enough time to worry about it. However, the place was nice and clean. When we finally got to relax, the hot tub was a welcome treat. It was also close to Helen and featured beautiful sites.

    Perfect location near Helen, GA. The cabin is cozy and the hot tub was nice after walking all day. We booked this based on the pictures but noticed the living room chair different and not a recliner. The kitchen table very uncomfortable as it doesn't have space for legs without hitting knees on the table supports. The rental company very responsive but will rent a different cottage nearby next tume.

    The perfect stay for me and my (now) fiancé. A warm, cozy cabin that was the perfect setting for a romantic getaway and surprise proposal. Super close to downtown Helen, but still far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet of the north georgia outdoors. Would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend!

    This cabin is a good place for two people, but in order for it to be a great place, several improvements need to be made. 1) Furnishings need to be updated. The couch was quite uncomfortable due to sagging cushions and the table for two was also quite uncomfortable as it was not possible to place your knees and feet under the table due to the table’s construction. 2) The back deck and gas grill was quite dirty. The screen door had numerous droppings on it. 3) A storm knocked out wi-fi and internet and tv coverage. When coverage returned it was not possible to watch You Tube TV because a member ID was needed. That member ID needs to be included in the guide about the cabin. My wife and I couldn’t watch tv for the remainder of our stay because we didn’t know the member ID.

Very secluded, clean, comfortable bed!, nice hot tub(ask to have it warmed up before you arrive), small propane grill that works!, fire pit (I suggest you buy some wood because the wood on the ground around is too big and or rotted), 12 cup coffee maker(filters provided) long with a Keurig. Bring sugar, shampoo, conditioner, soap/body wash. I strongly suggest that you go to Anna Ruby Falls(beautiful) and the town of Helen.

We enjoy romantic fires in the fireplace and the hot tub was wonderful after hiking for the day. There are many beautiful waterfalls in the area to hike to. Overall, the cozy cabin was very nice. It rained most of the nights that we were there and the rain on the metal roof was very loud but I don't think I've slept that sound in years. The cabin on the surface was clean but could use a nice spring cleaning. The dust on the drapes and headboard gave my dust allergies a workout.Check in was easy and the minor problems we had we taken care of easily thru the emergency number. We would definitely stay again.

Not too far from anything, but it seemed like you were secluded. There are cabins nearby, but you feel like you are the only cabin around. It was our 20th anniversary and the GMR team left us a nice gift! It was so thoughtful! We love staying with GMR. Everything is always great. It was such a cute little cabin. The only thing I could say is they probably need to get a few more pans and some cooking utensils. We very much enjoyed our stay!
