Family college graduation

Great Host. House very clean and updated. Lots of room to move around. Would stay here again. The only thing I would add is a coffee pot in coffee bar. I don’t care for k cups just because we love our coffee. It’s on the main road and can be little noisy with traffic but that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying this cute house. Great location. Close to town. Must try the “Hush” restaurant. It’s very good.

Perfect location

This was a friends' trip, all women, aged 59-80. The location was perfect for the activiies we had planned in Clarksville, Helen, and Toccoa. Betsy was very prompt with checkin information and always replied quickly to messages. It was a bit chilly, but that was to be expected travelling to the GA mountains in February. Some rooms heated more quickly than others, but we had plenty of blankets and throws. The bedrooms were comfortable and large enough to accomodate the 4 of us. We did suggest to the host to add bars to the closets for hanging clothes (they were missing in 2 of 3 closets), which she indicated she would do. Additional power outlets would be nice, but the host did provide extension cords.We did wish the kitchen was larger with more counter space since we tend to cook meals together when we travel, but we each grabbed a space to work within and some used the large dining table. If you plan to cook more simple meals or eat out, the kitchen will be fine.The host did provide us with some wonderful restaurant recommendations, we tried 2 in Clarksville and 1 in Cleveland which were all great.We had hoped to hike a bit and see some of the local waterfalls, but the weather did not cooperate with us. If you are looking for a location to access some great hiking, this is a great option. If we travel to this area again in the future, we will definitely consider Sweet Tea Cottage.

Very Welcoming and warm feeling. It’s was very clean, and offered so much space. We loved the coffee bar! The porches for outdoor sitting are wonderful. It close enough to Helen and Cleveland which we visited both. Helen for the October fest and Cleveland for the Cabbage Patch Hospital. We will stay there again on our next visit to Helen. I was able to contact our host so easily. She would answer within the hour. I recommend this beautiful home to anyone planning to visit the area.

Beautiful!

The house is clean, cute and comfortable. We enjoyed the "out in the country feel" and wished we had more time to enjoy the porches and the backyard. The property is off a busy street, but something about that master bed! We fell asleep immediately and didn't hear a sound all night. It seems to be a house that has been added onto, so you need to watch your step. It helped that they had electronic candles, so we put two of them on the floor, one just before going into the bathroom to light it up and remind us to look down, and the other just before the hallway that leads to the bathroom. So no worries there. Betsy is an awesome host. Communication was great and seriously when I say the place is clean, I mean that it was immaculate! Thank you, Betsy! We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Family Reunion Weekend

We needed a place for our family of 6 for the weekend so we could attend a family reunion near by. This cottage was more than we imagined. There was plenty of room for 5 adults to be very comfortable. The beds were great and the bathroom was updated and clean. The added bonus was a coffee bar with all the flavors and k-cup options. We highly recommend this rental for anyone looking to explore the North Georgia mountains.

Cozy clean cute Clarksville Cottage

We enjoyed our fantastic four night stay in Clarksville. The cottage was clean and spacious. Very well appointed, the pictures are exactly what you will find. Close to town where you can find wonderful restaurants. Or shop at Ingles and you will have everything you need to cook at “home”. Close enough to travel to the great mountain towns of Dahlonega and Helen. The cottage was private and I felt very safe even late at night taking our pups walking around the back of the property. Betsy is fantastic, a 5 star host with a 5 star rental! We would definitely recommend this rental.
