    Pros: the bed was comfortable. Hot tub was lovely. Fair price for what you get. Very private. Good water pressure. Cons: cabin smelled, needs updating, no stairs for the hot tub. Small tv. I don’t think we would stay here again.

    The cabin was so welcoming. We were greeted nu outside Christmas lights. When we opened the door ot was a Christmas womderland. Tastefully decorated and such a warm cozy feeling. The fireplace was mice since it was quite chilly on day. Our cabin was private amd and pet friendly which was great. The only reason i knocked off a star is we had difficulty with the hot tub. It was such a wonderful time. Thanks for making our Thanksgiving special.

    We had an amazing time at the cabin. Everything was perfect and clean. They have a dog gate around the porch , left treats and pup shampoo for us also. We were early and able to check in with the help of Stephanie. The cabin is probably 5 minutes from Unicoi for hiking and not even 10 from Helen.

    The property was nice for a weekend getaway, close to Helen and lots of sightseeing. We wanted a quiet getaway, which this was. We also wanted a hottub and fireplace, which is why we rented this cabin. The kitchen was well appointed, it had everything you could need to make complete meals, minus the food.The biggest drawback, and our only complaints are in regard to the hottub and the fireplace, both are the primary reasons we rented this particular cabin, both were disappointing. The hottub jets did not work well, and the hottub did not hold a consistent temperature. The outdoor firepit worked well, the indoor fireplace did not work. We were told to jiggle the logs to get it to light, that didnt work, it only extinguised the pilot light, which we were unable to light again. It would have been helpful to have a manual with operating instructions.The cabin in general was basically clean. The floor could have been a little cleaner, or maybe a swiffer left behind so we could touch it up. The cute record player was a nice touch. A fun addition. All in all, we were happy with the rest of our stay at the cabin, it would have been great if everything worked.I recommend this rental if you want a quiet stay. I don't recommend it if you are looking forward to using the hottub or fireplace. We would have saved the extra money and rented a cabin in the state park, or one of the many other cabins for rent, instead.

    One good thing: GPS actually took us straight to it! It's secluded and quiet. However, the whole cabin desperately needs a make over. The kitchen needs a new microwave, the fridge had hair in it and needed to be cleaned. ait,angues

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed with Georgia Mountain Rentals last year in a different cabin (just the two of us cabin) and it was wonderful! We decided to go back again this year and stayed in Cherokee 5, it was just as great! We love the private decks with the hot tubs and fire pit! Great place to relax and unwind after enjoying all the festivities in town. Location is perfect not too far from town and not too close to the hustle and bustle. We will definitely be back again!!

    Cute little cabin on top of the hill. Very private at the end of the dead end. Cabin is well equipped. Television wasn't the best reception, but we weren't there to watch tv. Bring a fire stick or other streaming device and you'll be fine. Great WIFI. Hot tub was nice at night with the gas fire pit going next to it. Close to Helen and Anna Ruby falls.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cherokee # 5 was perfect and at 2.5 hours away, it just became our run to get away. This cottage was perfect for two people and our two dogs. It was private, quiet, and so relaxing. The hot tub was amazing. It was easy to find from Helen, GA, and was completely as stated, fully equipped for a very comfortable week. Georgia Mountain Rental staff was attentive, courteous, and cared for any needs. 1st time in Helen Ga. This was the best of both worlds. The cottage was a beautiful retreat after a day of tubing, dining, and shopping

    Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin is listed as having 2 bedrooms. It does not. This set the tone for our stay, and although we had a great time in Helen, where we have been many times, it was shocking to be so totally misled about the cabin. Be honest. By itself, it’s a great little property. But it does not have 2 bedrooms.

Very peaceful with my Dog, Lady. She loved all the new smells all around her.
