Two-Story, Dog-Friendly Home w/ Private Hot Tub, Fast WiFi, & Mountain Views

I’m really not feeling like tying out this review for a second time. However, we won’t be back. Greeted with a bag of poop and sugar ants- and then German roaches in the fridge and broken stove top.One TV that doesn’t work if it’s raining because it’s satellite in a home that sleeps 12-14 comfortably. Flushing the upstairs bathroom toilet force flushes the downstairs toilet sending your poop water up as if a hose was powering it- onto your booty and private areas. If you flush it at the right moment, you will send the poop juice onto their hand and toilet paper as they try to wipe. This caused multiple people to have to shower multiple times. Also, a spider bit my leg while I was attempting to sleep on the starchy sheets that covered an extremely uncomfortable bed that caved inwards. The 10AM check out wasn’t the best after a Saturday evening wedding. There is a lot more but I’m just not in the mood right now. I will say, I’ve stayed in a ton of VRBO rentals and this is the first one I’ve seen with that many bugs. Nice space, beautiful property with lots of family of deee.

The view of the mountains was vary nice and the master bed was comfortable, but everything else was subpar. The internet never worked despite instructions. The kitchen is so dark it’s hard to cook in and the stove is beat up, cracked and one burner out, thank goodness for the grill which was clean and working well. The cabinets are old with paint peeling and the cookware tired. There is no dishwasher although checkout instructions say load dishwasher before leaving. The master shower is tiny and no pressure. The porch is beautiful but the furniture on it is rock hard, a few cushions would go a long way. The home is full of areas of rotten wood on exterior. The home is also in a cabin development area not secluded at all and constant road noise is heard. One other note : do not walk your dog two homes up drive as there is a vicious pit bull on the loose up there, somehow through the grace of god and my own safety my border collie on leash was not killed, it certainly looked bad when the pit bull charged us and then went nose to nose snarling at my dog.

The cabin was very clean and we loved the number of beds available. The beds were comfortable and the A/C was cold. The hot tub was very clean and comfortable. The property was well kept and we appreciated the extra parking space. There is no dishwasher, but that's not that big a deal. However, there were two major issues. The stove was not serviceable. The control panel was cracked and one of the controls/burners didn't work at all. The other three were very slow to heat. We ended up not really being able to cook. Second, when the upstairs toilet is flushed, it causes the downstairs toilet to boil over onto the seat and the floor. Not a pleasant experience when you are sitting on it. Not sure if there is a waste water pluming venting issue. Otherwise, great view and very responsive management company. We appreciated the early check-in and we especially appreciated the option to buy in to a late checkout, which was a reasonable price. If the two major issues mentioned get fixed, we would stay here again.

The location was nice, the beds and pillows were comfortable, the hot tub was hot, and the view was good. However, there were more things wrong than right. Most of the doors on the property do not work, both interior and exterior. There is a lady bug infestation on the second floor. And not just a couple, hundreds and hundreds. The pictures are misleading. It’s very dark and there are few lights and some that don’t work. The couch probably needs replacing. There were a couple things in the folder that were outdated. Like it said we should get a starter pack of firewood, but there was none. Also that there’s a dishwasher, but again, no dishwasher. Two of the bedrooms are add ons on the opposite side of the house with no restroom. The actual living space is very small. So while 4 bedrooms is nice, it’s clearly meant to be a 2 bedroom house because though there’s 2 bedrooms added on with lots of extra beds, the living space is only comfortable for about 4-5 people. We had 10.

The house was described, perhaps a bit older than what you can tell in the photos. Be aware that the second bath is upstairs with one of the bedrooms. All the rest of the rooms are downstairs and share one bathroom, but it wasn't really a problem for us. There were some bugs, but nothing out of the ordinary for being in the woods, and they weren't in abundance. There also is no dishwasher. We enjoyed the patio most, sitting on the couch and swing looking at the view. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals and it's nice and close to Blairsville which has some really cute shops and delicious restaurants. It's about a 35 min drive on windy roads to Helen. We appreciated that the back 2 bedrooms had their own climate control options. We would come stay again.

1. Many king sized beds 2. Overlooks a vineyard where we saw baby deer 3. Nearby many local wineries 4. Easy check in and out

Loved the 4 bedrooms with king beds plus 2 full beds, and screened porch room! Several places had rotting wood and peeling paint. Needs some TLC, could be even more awesome! Air wouldn’t cool top bedroom. Small air conditioners in extra bedrooms up the small staircase and they were cool. Front living area was hard to cool also. Entire house needs a new air unit. But we had a great time and enjoyed the house. And it was pet friendly and private. And the price to stay was like half of other properties! Def a plus!

Nice cabin, easy to get to, great view, hot tub works well, good porch and screened in porch, overall comfortable and clean. No dishwasher, couple faulty doorknobs, all stairs are treacherous and steep, slow wifi at times. Door dash is available.

Location is perfect! Quiet, mountain view, easy drive into Helen and Blairsville is an adorable town. The cabin is beautiful. Another bathroom on the first floor would be ideal. The property needs maintenance- rotting wood on the deck and siding, broken lamp that was taped back together, ceiling fan lights not working or difficult to operate, etc. For the price for a weekend you would not expect to see these things. Cleaning could have been better but wasn’t awful.

We had a great time celebrating a birthday! It was relaxing & the view is incredible. The house itself was the perfect size for our group. Overall, had a great time.
