This was such a wonderful home and property! We loved how there was a ramp to help with getting the elderly dog outside and elderly parent in and outside. The description of the house was exactly as described. I would rent again!

Awesome house
This house is awesome! The amenities are great, play area, hot tub, playground, etc are just as described and what our family needed. We had 9 children all together and they had an amazing time. Close to lake Burton and other waterfalls, trails, etc. 5 days was not enough time to enjoy everything. Host was very easy to communicate and answered every question we had! We will love to come back!!

Family Vacation
Our family of 12 stayed 4 days at this secluded mountain cabin. There was plenty of room and everyone enjoyed the game room. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for preparing meals and we were all able to share our meals at a large dining table. The fenced in back yard was a bonus for Leo and Finley (our 2 granddogs). We enjoyed hikes to the waterfalls, S'mores by the firepits and trips to Helen. The cabin is centrally located to many local attractions.

Great for large families with small kids
The home was beautiful. It was very spacious for a large group. The kitchen was fully stocked to prepare any meal. The kids living room area was so nice with a TV, Nintendo Switch, foosball table, puzzles, blocks, and more! The pickleball/basketball court was so fun, and there was a playground set! Perfect for families with small children! We plan to stay again!
