Our stay was very enjoyable. We were 4 adults and all agree that more than that would get crowded. The cabin is smaller than it sounds in the description in the listing. The upstairs loft is terribly creeky, including the bed and wood floors. The kitchen has very limited cookware and no storage items so you need to bring containers or foil and plastic wrap. The outside deck is quite narrow but in a truly great place in the trees. The hot tub is a huge plus and was at temperature, ready when we arrived. The trip into Helen is easy but the drive uphill to the cabin could be difficult in inclement weather. If you rent through VRBO, you will not work with the owners but with a management company, Cabins of Helen.Cabins of Helen have a fantastic employee named Nathan who worked superbly with our friends after they forgot their clothes in the closet and realized this hours after their departure! Thank you, Nathan, for the stellar support. This is overall a wonderfully peaceful cabin and location. I feel it could be much better if a few things were added. Also, be mindful, the loft is completely open to the downstairs except for railings so there is zero noise reduction if you are sleeping up there. If the kitchen had a bit more cookware and storage ware and the loft could get some bed and floor work, this place would definitely be a 5 star recommendation!
