    House was very clean and comfortable. We had a family trip with 9 people and had plenty of space for all of us. Kitchen was fully stocked. Communication with host was great. Pet friendly and a lot of space for pets and kids to run around. Highly recommend!

    The house is beautiful. The kitchen is a dream kitchen, except the pots and pans needed to be replaced. Other than that, the kitchen was VERY well stocked. We bought a pan to use during our stay.The air conditioning was wonderful, much needed since it was July and very hot.The beds on the main level were very uncomfortable. We stayed on the main level, since we had our dog with us and my husband has a bad knee. Neither one of us slept good. I like a soft bed, husband likes a firm bed but neither one of us could sleep, the bed was very hard even too firm for husband. If you can go upstairs, the beds up there seemed better.The host, Brittany was great to deal with. Very easy to get a hold of and responded quickly when we reported a problem. The problem was the trash cans were full when we arrived and had tons of flies buzzing around the cans, which were very close to the kitchen door. Also, someone must have left the bathroom window cracked open, because we discovered that open window after the first couple of days. Sadly, lots of flies got inside the house, so we were dealing with them during our stay, buzzing all around us whenever we had food. Brittany sent a someone to the house quickly, and he took care of the trash issue.The house was very pretty and other than the uncomfortable beds, the furniture was very nice. The house sits back, long driveway, on a busy road, not a road that you can walk your dog on, so we drove about 5 minutes to walkable area.

    The house was absolutely perfect for a weekend stay and to host a baby shower! It had everything we needed - even fresh flowers and blueberries. Brittany was wonderful and the communication was great. Highly recommend if you're considering this property!

    The house has been renovated but still holds the classic charm of days gone by. The location is ideal for day trips to local waterfalls and hiking trails plus just minutes away from Helen. The property manager, Brittany, was very informative about the neighborhood since we were traveling with pets. She also checked in on us after a severe storm moved through the area. That meant a lot to us. The kitchen was well stocked and the home was very clean and peaceful. This is a great place to sit back and enjoy nature or head for the trails.

    We used the home as our accommodations for a three day fishing trip in North Georgia. We found the home in great condition and the place was very well stocked with everything one could need. The home is spacious and the outdoor firepit was used all three nights. If you have need of accommodations near Clarkesville I would highly recommend. Clean, comfortable, good location.

    Came for a wedding at Toccoa Falls and it was just perfect. Beautiful home, all we needed was provided. Had enough room for everyone and even the few friends that came over after the wedding. Thanks Brittany for making it all run smoothly and your extra help to make it perfect.
