One of the best vrbo’s that I’ve stayed at. Super clean and comfortable and everyone had their own space. We arrived and the internet wasn’t working, they came within 30 min and brought us a hotspot and we had no problem with the internet. Jacuzzi, outdoor gas grill and fire pit was a nice place to hang out in the evenings. We had the kids sleep downs stairs (basement) on the futon, queen bedroom and they enjoyed playing ping pong table (there was a bathroom with a shower). 1st floor had the kitchen, living room and with a king bedroom with a bathroom right outside the bedroom. 2nd floor had the masters queen bed and a double sink with shower. The best thing in the masters was a box tv. Each room had a tv for kids to see. The round table was nice and fit us all comfortably to eat. 15 min from Helen Hardman Farm and Anna Ruby Falls. Dahlonega 45 min (1st gold mine rush). Cabbage Patch Mansion 15 min away and Dollywood 3 hours away. Perfect place to stay if you love the outdoors.

Dirt Road

I wish the 4 minute or more dirt road the cabin is on was listed as a warning! The dirt road is not safe for small cars! It is also a one car road and some spots are hard to see a car coming head on. There are hills and some very rough spots. Besides the road the cabin was amazing, will say the upstairs bedroom does get hotter then the rest of the rooms and the downstairs rooms get a lot cooler.

Great place to stay! Minor inconveniences, overall great place!

The place to stay in Helen was great! Overall, it had tons of room & for the cleanliness was great, communication with the rental property was also great and they did check in! Other than that, I do think we were a little unaware of the drive getting to the house on the rocky road and hills. I definitely recommend four-wheel-drive if you have it, depending on weather! The showers had a little bit of an issue draining. Otherwise, it was a really great trip! They include WiFi out there which is nice because of the service not being too great! 8/10 place!

Wonderful Cabin!

We stayed at Knotty Pine for a long weekend trip to Helen, GA. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the cabin. The hot tub is wonderful for cool nights after a fun day, the fire pit out back is a nice touch too! We loved that there were 3 bathrooms so we each got our own bedroom and bathroom. The location is great for visiting Helen and the road in isn’t as bad as what I expected after reading some of the reviews. We will definitely be back!

Leaky but beautiful

We mostly enjoyed our stay on the property. There were issues with a leaking roof onto the recliner in the main living room. It rained multiple times a day for the 4 days we were there. We did submit a work order, but nothing was done about it. Before checking out we also discovered a leak coming from the water heater into the game room. We documented the leak and the affected spaces and sent to management. We did not receive a response from anyone about this.

Birthday getaway

I brought my daughter for her sweet 16th birthday. We brought two of her friends. The hot tub and ping pong table were big draws and big hits! Everything was just as I expected. This cabin is down a dirt road and very remote from the main road- yet still very close to Helen.

Great cabin for small group retreats

I stayed with my sisters and nieces and my daugter. It was an girls only vacation just for the weekend with the intent of going tubing in Helen. The cabin was comfortable and had all the necessary utensils in the kitchen and enough towels. No towels for the hot tub or if you are going to the river, so bring your own. Make sure to bring every condiment and seasoning that your food will need. The water is very hot so be careful when showering. I didn't use the hot tub but my sisters said it was good and clean. Be careful outside, we saw a copperhead in the patio where the hot tub is. We also saw a deer. I would have liked to have a mop and extra hand towels for the kitchen. Be patient if using the washer, it does a weird lid lock/release cycle that makes you think the washer is not working, but it really is. Bring your laundry detergent if you plan to bring home clean clothes, specially if you go to the river. The road is gravel, which makes it fun going up and down the hills on the way to the cabin. There is a small waterfall in one of the main gravelk roads whick makes it a good picture spot. I got courtesy calls asking if all was ok. I do recommend this cabin, neighbors are far and you will not hear anyone.

Overall was a great stay plenty of room for everyone and lots to do around the area. The only suggestion i would have is more towels for guest use. Only two per guess and with a small child that can go quickly. I would diffently stay again and recommend to friends and family.

We wanted to celebrate our wonderful husbands for Father's Day weekend and we're thrilled to find this wonderful place for us to share. The kids had separate play and sleep areas and the parents got some well deserved peace and quiet. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit.
