Enjoy the beauty of the mountains at this Serene getaway near Lake Chatuge

As soon as you walked in the house, this musty smell hit you in the face, and it never went away. The carpets were very dirty, and we had to rewash the dishes before we could even use them. There were hair on the walls in the shower and there was a lot of dog feces in the backyard that had not been picked up from previous visits I guess. I am grateful that we were not charged the $75 dog fee, since we cleaned up after other people‘s pets as well, I’m a little perturbed over the hundred dollar cleaning fee since nothing was clean. The floor by the kitchen and dining room is a safety hazard, because there are big gaps between the planks put down, and I actually stomped my toe on one of them. The area where the house is in is actually very beautiful, but I would recommend to the owners that they invest in a professional carpet cleaning.

Very quiet and beautiful lake view! Listing says sleeps 8 but we had older kids and there just wasn’t enough room for them to sleep comfortably. It would be great for younger kids. Plus they have board games for kids too!

If you like a rural, out-of-the-way setting, you will enjoy this property. Very spacious and pleasant, relaxing views. Great communication with host.

NO view of the lake from house. You CAN tell the house is pet friendly Also the house has been closed up for some time, musty smells. Could not use one toilet, it was not secured to the floor!

Since I was the only one staying in this 3br, 2ba house, my review is based on the rooms/spaces I used. The house is older but there are signs the owners are updating it as the kitchen and main bathroom have been renovated. The 2nd bathroom is in an unusual location; you have to walk through the kitchen and laundry room to get to it and it has a walk-in tub; might present a privacy issue for some. I did not prepare any meals; used microwave to reheat restaurant leftovers and to nuke a couple breakfast sandwiches, so cannot comment on other kitchen use/appliances. Slept well every night. Being next to a lake the house was a bit damp; probably wouldn't hurt to put another dehumdifier somewhere. Should really do something about the small trees growing out of the gutters. Future renters should definitely heed owner's advice about arriving before dark; could be difficult to find if arriving at night. Having a carport to park in is definitely a plus. Had no issues with WiFi; did not use TV. I reserved this place because the cabin I had rented previous years was unavailable and this house was cheaper than all other options; this is nice to have as a backup for future visits since I don't really need 3br/2ba.

The house is in a very good location, beautiful town. The house is very old and smell moldy and humid. The beds are very uncomfortable and the master bathroom is not connected to the bathroom also the smell in that room is terrible. The carpets are very dirty and gross. The living room furniture is old and smelly. I rented for 4 days but only stayed 2 days. I think they need to put new carpets,change the furniture and beds.

The location was perfect for us. Property owner was great and helped us when needed.

Quick stay for visit to Young Harris College. Home met needs with 3 bedrooms. Older home but clean and functional.

Perfect little house and stay at the lake. Close to YH College to see my niece play ball. Everything about this property was easy to use and navigate. Would stay here again.

Very enjoyable!

We enjoyed out stay here the inside was very clean. Easy access to surrounding areas and things to do. This was a chill vacay so we had no itinerary, but information provided by the host made it easy to find things to do. Will stay here again when in the area.

The day we left for our trip I had still not received my welcome letter or a code to access the property. I emailed the property manager and we left our home headed to our stay. 4 hours later I had still not received a reply. I tried to use the vrbo virtual agent which was no help. I found a number for VRBO and called and of course I did not get an actual person , it would be 15 minutes or more before I could speak to an agent. We decided to go on to the property. Once we arrived I checked again and still no response. Called VRBO and sat on hold finally spoke to an agent and waited again while they went thru all the correspondence and determined the owner had not contacted me, again I waited while they attempted to contact her and couldn't. They decided to cancel the reservation and reimburse me but I would have to find another place to stay. Note we were there with family to enjoy the annual apple festival so the town and surrounding towns were booked solid, while we looked the agent stayed on the line and tried again to contact the property owner, who finally responded and gave us the code. 3 and half hours of our vacation were a waste .pillows in the bedrooms were covered in yellow stains, the trundle bed had urine stains covering the mattress pad, the carpets were dirty and stained, the 2nd bathroom did not have a door. owner was in Florida without electric and could not contact us, My entire family is in Florida without electric but we are able to stay in contact.

This is our second stay and we absolutely love it, it fits our family perfect. We love that we can save money by cooking and this time WAL-MART will deliver which makes it so much easier! Love sitting out front to listen to the different birds and wildlife can’t wait to go back!

Great location of the house in the middle of the forrest. Beautiful lake, beautiful experience!
