    The view was excellent and it was peaceful. It was about a 25 min drive into Dawsonville. While the place was peaceful, the home itself could use some aesthetically pleasing updates and deeper cleaning.

    It was a great stay, perfect location. The only problem was the lady bugs and spiders. Also, would be nice to see in the binder with recommendations food, restaurant locations added especially due to distance. If needed, would return.

    Beautiful house and very comforting. The view from the main balcony is partially blocked by the trees now. But the master balcony has a great view. All in all it was a great place for us and will definitely consider coming back again.

    Very nice deck. Very large master bedroom with a great view.View from lower decks obscured by recently grown up bushes and trees. Thus the photo is not quite accurate.Disappointed the gas grill was very greasy and not functional.

    Unfortunately, due to the rain/fog we didn’t get to see too much of the view, but what we did see was spectacular! The house was nice and clean! We had enough space as a family of 8 to all be comfortable. We cooked almost every meal there. One thing that could be mentioned is that the internet doesn’t work/is so very spotty that it might as well not work. No fault to the owner/manager, but it could pose a problem for some people.

    Beautiful property spectacular views from all three levels, master suite has best views to horizon. Place was meticulously clean. Will be returning in the future to this same property. Never used kitchen but it is fully outfitted. Scenic drive from place to Jasper.

    Overall we enjoyed out stay at the Amicalola Vista House. The house is nice and spacious and was very clean. There were 5 adults in our party and the home was roomy for us. However there were a few things that could use some attention. We cooked our meals during our stay and some of the pots and baking sheets really need to be replaced. Also there is no salad bowl or mixing bowls. I would also recommend that there be more silverware added. There is a very limited amount.The patio furniture on all of the decks was in need of repair or replacing. The TV in the main floor area was the only TV that you could watch anything on. There was a TV in the primary bedroom, but it could not access anything because it was not connected to WiFi. There didn't seem to be any WiFi available at all. Thankfully this was not a huge problem for us or the other guest although it was an inconvenience.There are no other TVs in the other bedrooms The fireplace was very nice and cozy. The beds were comfortable and we all slept well. So overall our party did enjoy our stay and the views from the decks are amazing. We all are game players and the dining table is great for not only eating meals together at, but also playing games. Everyone said that they would stay here again. Hopefully next stay there will be some new deck furniture that would be safe to sit in to admire that wonderful view.
