Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We appreciated the prompt response from the management reference the few issues we had.When the toilet next to the stairs overflowed on Christmas Eve (our first night stay) they sent someone on Christmas Day to check it out. Also they sent a plumber the day after when the bathroom toilets and bathtubs in the first floor were not draining properly. Probably due to the heavy rain and full septic system the master bathroom toilet had a moldy smell and it was loose.The house was mostly an enjoyable place to stay, however it is very outdated, the mattresses were clean but way too soft and there were many pieces of old furniture that made the house look like the owners left or passed on and it is being rented almost as is. I would also suggest that you bring kitchen cleaning items such as dish rags, towels, sponges and disinfection solution to properly clean the counters and stove. They did provide one tiny sponge, a tiny bottle of dish soap and dish pods for the dishwasher, however if you plan on using the kitchen as we did for most every meal you will need more cleaning supplies. Most of the days we stayed there it rained heavily and we were not able to get outside, however the outdoors area with the small lake and swimming pool looked beautiful and inviting. Again we appreciated the great and timely communication before, during and after our stay. Thank you.
Our family had a get together … Our mom , her 4 kids & their spouses … it’s been a few years, some traveled from Virginia, some from Florida & some Alabama… can’t wait for our next adventure!!! The house was perfect & so was the property ❤️??
We all felt property was fair but could really be a gem. The outside needed a good power washing and pool needs work as liner was coming out of sides (needs liner lock). Shower curtain liners could be thicker and fit better. Chairs or benches around fire pit would be nice. There were no instructions for wood stove operation. The bedrooms were nice, as was dining space, living room and bathrooms. The pool deck had adequate tables and chairs for sitting outside. The house was very dated and could use updating but all in all we enjoyed our stay. We did have plumbing issue but repairs were handled promptly and I am sure owners will rectify the major repairs recommended as waiting for repairs cost us a half day of sightseeing in the area. We would not stay here again but think with some TLC this place could be a gold mine.
Nice property. Only downfall was master toilet didn't flush. Other than that nice property.
Beautiful property! Only complaint was the musty smell when we first got there- lots of carpet, even in the bathrooms. Management agency very easy to work with.
Plenty of room for everyone to spread out or come together for meals, etc. The pool was great for entertaining the 12yo. Kitchen is well equipped but could use better lighting. Also don’t forget to bring containers to put leftovers in, plastic wrap etc. The pool doesn’t have much of a shallow end so if you have any small children plan accordingly. We hope to go again sometime.
The house was big enough to accommodate 5 couples. The shower curtain for the 1st floor master walk in shower is not wide enough. It doesn't cover the entire opening. Asked the management company where the light switch was for the outdoor lights around the pool. She didn't know but said she would find out from the owner and get back to me which never happened.
The property was beautiful, the views amazing, the beds were so comfortable. But the home does need some updates. The carpet in the bathroom freaked me out. And the tub was not working. The kitchen table was not safe. But the pool, space and area made up for it!
Beautiful property ! The fishing pond was a hit ! The pool was so clean !! Several mornings and evening the deer would be on property. Just 2 recommendations-- the stovetop was terrible--but I saw a new range in the garage ! There is a person who stays in the apartment above the garage -/ only saw the car move once. Recommend- he or she introduces themselves--kinda creepy if they are watching us. Overall-- excellent house, property and pool. Thank you
The house was comfy...pool was awesome... property peaceful. This was a great trip for our family. The property was well maintained and peaceful. The pool & the house were clean. Never saw the neighbors. Saw some deer in the backyard though. Close to Helen and the quaint little mountain town of Cleveland which is a 10 minute drive and has everything you could need. I would definitely recommend this rental property.
Very clean, a little outdated, but just right for our group. We loved having a pool and pond on the property. Very quiet and peaceful.

We have a large family so the space in this beautiful house was able to accommodate everyone & make them feel comfortable. The house was very clean and tidy. Definitely coming back!
My entire family enjoyed thanksgiving and the Helen tree lighting on this family getaway!!! The house was large and spacious and very clean. The pond was an extra bonus, as my 10 year old grandson and son in law were able to fish!!! Would definitely stay there again
Awesome spot for a family vacation! Never had to leave the house if we didn’t want to?

The whole family-Mother, siblings, grand and great grands-all had fun! Making sweet memories!
Exactly as described! Plenty of space, casually comfortable, and having a private pool was the icing on the cake. Fishing, swimming and exploring the 4 surrounding charming towns was just what we needed. Everyone had a great time, from my 82 yr old mother down to the 3yr old niece. A perfect place to spend a week chilling and relaxing.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family,(we range in age from 69 to 20), enjoyed our vacation at Southwind. Fishing in the pond, cooling off in the pool, trips to Cleveland and Helen were a few of the things that kept us busy. This is an older house decorated with antiques. We all kinda felt like we were spending a week at Grandpa and Grandma’s house being spoiled! It brought back so many great memories to all three generations and we made many more too!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The property is spacious and has a beautiful pond that is very tranquil. The house is large and has plenty of separate spaces for different groups. The pool is huge and very clean and has a nice outside spot to hangout outside. We had a great time and would recommend the property to others!
We absolutely loved this house. We will definitely be staying here again.
