This was our second stay at this cabin, and we enjoyed it even more this time. The cabin is beautifully furnished and decorated and includes everything you need for a relaxing visit. The location allows for wonderful views of the mountains in the Georgia High Country, and it's close enough to town and other attractions to make for a great visit in the region. Liz is a wonderful host and always communicates quickly to answer any questions. Thanks again for a wonderful long weekend stay.
The property was amazing the views were amazing and the cabin was so comfortable and cozy
Beautiful and well kept home…. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This is a very nice, well decorated cabin. Everything and more than we imagined. The host was super friendly and informative. Will stay here again
Property was great, close to everthing.
A great place to stay with an excellent view.
We have visited North Georgia every summer for the past five years. This was our favorite place to stay so far! Perfect for our family of four. There is a cabin being built next door, but otherwise very private and secluded. The cabin is well kept and extremely clean. We felt right at home here. Liz was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to messages. The kitchen was well-stocked and there were plenty of towels in each of the bathrooms (which has been lacking in some rentals where we’ve stayed.) The road leading up to the cabin is pretty steep, so my Highlander struggled a little, but putting it in low gear and getting a little whip into the drive for a head start made getting up a little easier. Highly recommend renting a boat on beautiful Lake Chatuge and doing some tubing. Our boys (13 and 10) said this was their favorite trip so far. We will definitely be visiting again soon!
Had a great time. Cabin was well maintained, clean & had a great view. There was a new cabin being constructed next to it. No big issue, workers left when we arrived & didn't come back until Monday when we checked out. This will be temporary. Having humming birds feeding while sitting on porch enjoying view in AM with coffee. At night lightening bugs & full moon. Loved sitting out doing nothing but listening to music & having a great time. We would book again. Easy access to cabin, a little steep on last road to cabin. No problem with a little speed.
The cabin was decoratively superb the lighting in the evening was very calming and peaceful. The bathrooms and rooms were very clean tidy and modern in style and visual appeal. The master bedroom closet size was also impressively sizeable to fit plenty of items luggage and then some. We were charmed and awed by the wrap around porch as well as the fire pit located along the side of the property. I also was impressed with the outdoor lighting and how it was setup to accommodate both the side auxiliary as well as the entrance or both if needed. The cabinets were stocked to the gills with every appliance and pot dish pan etc you could ever ask for! Thank you so much for providing us with every amenity imaginable and a charming picturesque view of the mountains nestled in Hiawasee, Georgia. We hope to return again!
Beautiful property that is well maintained. Liz is a spectacular host.
Everything involved from Check-In to Check-Out was PERFECT. Cleanliness, Ambiance , Location, Cabin Layout and Design.
The view was breathtaking, and the cabin was immaculate throughout. Great amenities and perfect distance from civilization. Definitely want to return.
We had the pleasure of staying at the Burn’s cabin for a week during New Years with family. We enjoyed the well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and holiday decorations throughout the house. We did have a hard time getting up the driveway a few times…full disclosure we are native Floridians and we were not a custom to the steep incline but once we figured out the car needed to be in first gear and you had to whip it up the driveway…we had no issues. We also had a hard time finding the cabin since GPS could not find the cabin. Highly suggest plugging in the Highcreek vineyard that is located a few driveways down. Despite those learning curves we truly enjoyed our stay and felt like “mountain men” by the end of our stay with all of the local people exploring we did.
Very clean cabin with awesome views, quiet and peaceful
We had a wonderful time. The cabin is very well taken care of and the view is beautiful. We truly enjoyed our stay.
My girlfriends and I visited for the weekend and were very impressed with the cleanliness of the cabin inside and out. The attention to detail in providing everything needed for your stay was noted by all five women. The grounds outside were very neat and tidy with an amazing view from the wrap around porch and firepit. The list of to-dos upon check out were very reasonable. A relaxing place to be for a break from the hustle of daily life.
Private cabin with a beautiful Mountain View with close proximity to Helen, Hiawassee & Clayton. AT Trail head within 5 minute drive, great for a day hike. Very clean cabin with a wrap around porch. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed the seclusion of the mountains while being only a few minutes from town to enjoy the activities and restaurants.
Absolutely breath taking views and home, Perfect travel distance to all locations of tourist or local wants. My sister and me cannot want to return again next year. it was so peaceful, and exactly the desired atomsphere, location for a perfect getaway.
This home is cared for with love. We had wonderful evenings here after days of hiking and exploring north Georgia. The cabin is clean, comfortable, and professionally decorated. You can't beat the spectacular views from the wrap around porch. A big bonus is watching the hummingbirds while relaxing on the deck. Travelling to the state and federal parks was easy and convenient. There are more things to do in this area than can be done in a few days, so we hope to return to enjoy more of the Chattahoochee National Forest.
We we had a wonderful time the house was beautiful clean the bed rooms were nice everything was very accommodating for us thanks for letting us stay in your home the Millers
Such a complete and comfortable cabin with fabulous views. Liz has thought of everything, I felt like I was at home. Close to hiking and beautiful lakes.
Very clean and will not hesitate to rent this cabin again.
Spent the weekend with college friends. The cabin was immaculate, and most everything was provided. We enjoyed the convenience of nearby Hightower Winery. The cabin is in a great location, private but near the restaurants, winery, and shopping. We loved it and highly recommend if anyone is looking for a cabin, this is it!
The cabin was very clean and well equipped. It was very quite and peaceful. The views from the porch were awesome. We would recommend. The owners were very nice and answered any questions we had. If we visit this area again we would want to rent again.
