This place is amazing! If you book here you will not be disappointed. My adult son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay for his birthday. Clean, excellent amenities, gorgeous view, crystal clear swimming pool, beautiful home! The host is very easy to work with and get in touch with; always replies. I’ve rented several homes in Hiawassee and this one is by far the best. I’ll be back next year for sure!!
