Mike & Marti, we truly loved staying at your beautiful house. The natural setting, with an amazing view in and of the mountains was perfect. Jeter and Porter are two very friendly dogs, my kids loved playing with them! My 3 kids stayed in one of the rooms with the bunk bed and a full size bed and the loved it, they slept in longer than any other time in recent memory, unbelievable. My bedroom was very comfortable too. It was very easy to get comfortable in this house, it is immaculate throughout and Mike & Marti are excellent and friendly hosts, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I also really appreciated their excellent suggestions on local restaurants and nearby activities/sight seeing. When we make another trip to North GA, we look forward to staying with Marti & Mike again. Thank you Mike & Marti. -Mike

We had a great stay at Derrell's cabin. We really enjoyed fires (& fireflies!) in the evening at the fire pit by the creek. We visited over Memorial Day and there were no mosquitoes! The creek was perfect for our kids (11 & 14 yrs) to go fishing and swimming. The rocks are a little slippery so water shoes are a good idea. The cabin is really private and it is on a dirt road. The driveway is a bit steep but our non-4WD vehicles did okay. The cabin itself is a well-loved family cabin that is clean & well equipped. It is a modified A-frame style with a great front porch & deck off the master bedroom. There are no windows on the sides which makes it a little dark inside until you open the curtains and turn on lights which are ample. We did not use the fireplace inside but I imagine it would make it very cozy in winter. Not sure why, but both our GPS & cell phone navigation had us approach via Jenny's Cove Rd which does not get you there. Also we had good cell reception outside but not in the cabin. Great nature retreat!

Amazing location! Falling asleep to the sound of the river right outside is perfect. Very clean house. Would definitely recommend it!

The host canceled this reservation 3 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had a great time in the cabin! Highly recommended!

Town Creek Cabin was awesome, right down to the bear-themed decor. It was well stocked with some basic supplies we didn't realize we needed, like when we had to do a last-minute load of laundry or light a citronella coil to keep some of the night bugs at bay. Derrell was a great host, the creek was beautiful and we loved the fire ring. It was the perfect place to enjoy nature-out of the way but with other cabins within a few minutes so that you don't feel too remote. My only regret is I didn't stay long enough to take a tube into the water!

The host was very accommodating and extremely responsive. I enjoyed staying in a place that was his. It was lovely and exactly what I expected.

We really enjoyed the sound of the creek in the back yard! Cabin is private, cozy and beds were comfortable. A good location- made a good base camp for our weekend activities! 4 wheel drive is a good idea- especially if it has rained.

Really nice experience staying here. The cabin was clean and comfortable and the area was beautiful. The only down part of our stay was that only one bathroom was available for use.

Melody was an outstanding host that made the reservation process extremely easy, even for a couple of airbnb first-timers on only one days' notice. She balances the role of entertaining host perfectly with giving guests enough of their own space to relax and unwind. The house and the grounds around it are gorgeous and were the perfect place for some time away from the hustle and bustle of the city...great views and awesome star gazing (bring wine, board games, and fire wood for the outdoor firepit and patio!) Breakfast was delicious - quiche, yogurts, croissants with butter and jam. Highly recommend Melody and the Mount Laurel Farm, very happy we found it and certainly plan to go back sometime in the near future!

Absolutely amazing experience, beautiful farm, home, and view. The host is second to none. I would recommend this place to EVERYONE!!

Melody made my first Airbnb booking and experience wonderful! she is very hospitable, helpful and cheerful and the her place is absolutely beautiful! me and my husband love it so much we are definity going to book her whenever we go back to Helen! Breakfast is amazing compared to stale Hotel meals that we usually get. we surely missed the late night cheese and wine and gathering at the firepit but we will sure come. if you are looking for a peaceful and beautiful place hers is highly recommended!

I'm one of the thousands of people who went out chasing the Great American Eclipse, and I chose to make Laurel Farm part of that adventure. I couldn't have picked a more wonderful and magical place to experience this once in a lifetime opportunity. This is a perfect place to savor nature, intake quietude, read, have your morning coffee as you look out to a picturesque mountainous scenery, or simply take a walk in and around Melody's property which is breathtaking. It is such a charming place, Melody has definitely made it a very special space for any occasion, whether you are looking for peacefulness or celebration, you will find it here. If you are like me and have a knack for collectibles, antiques, and treasurable curiosities, you will find many eyes dancing from one corner of the property to another, finding in each one of them something historic and amusing. Overall a delightful experience. Thank you Melody! I hope to come back!

Melody was a great host. She did such a nice job of taking care of us on our stay from recommendations to cooking breakfast. I would highly recommend staying with her. The grounds are gorgeous and we sincerely enjoyed our weekend.

Melody was great - she immediately made us feel welcome, showing us our room, quickly determining what time breakfast would be the next morning, and then letting us go about our business. Perfect blend of attentiveness and letting us do our own thing.

If I were to get married again (UGH), I would choose Melody's place. Honest.

A fantastic Labor Day getaway to the North Georgia Mountains at Mountain Laurel Farm. Melody is a fantastic, warm and welcoming host. We had a wonderful stay, made better by Melody and it's proximity to hiking, vineyards, and Helen. Can't wait to come back to enjoy her hospitality again.

Totally awesome house and vacation! The hosts made sure everything was perfect and checked in with us periodically. The house was well stocked: plenty of towels, pillows, spices, all the extras you forget to bring, the kitchen was set up to handle cooking and serving for our giant bunch, outdoor chairs, bikes, boats etc! The house was set up with high end furniture and décor which certainly didn't give the feeing of a rental. Our group did outings during the day, fishing and boating in evenings and at night played music in the super large family room. (with trips to the hot tub in between) One of the best vacations ever. I highly recommend Cameron House Retreat.

Beautifully decorated in every way, plenty of space for 4 generations to spend time, this is such a beautiful home and it was the perfect place for our family to come together to celebrate my Dad's 80th birthday! A welcome basket of baked treats and a bottle of local wine were waiting for us. We enjoyed the paddle boat and dingy, swing set, the hot tub and fire pit, the fireplace warmed us on the chilly nights. Plenty of fresh and fluffy towels for our crowd, cribs and a high chair for the 2 little babies were a great help and very appreciated. Communication with the owners was always quick and very friendly. We would love to visit again and I would highly recommend a visit to this lovely home

We had a great stay at the Cameron House Retreat. The house was very comfortable and clean. Perfect for a big group! The kitchen was well-stocked; no need to bring vegetable oil, pots, pans, coffee, aluminum foil, etc!

As good as this place looked in pictures, it's even better than we could have hoped for. We booked Cameron House for the weekend of our daughter's wedding. It was a very hectic weekend and it was truly a blessing to have such a wonderful place to relax and gather between events. The entire home, and it truly feels like a home, is so beautifully and creatively decorated. Each time you enter a room you notice another little special touch you hadn't before. You could not ask for more in the way of amenities and comfort. Everything is as advertised and then some. We can't wait to return. Cheers to Robert and Deborah and thanks for sharing this truly special place.

Our extended family celebrated multiple "decade" birthdays on a weekend here. Beautiful home. Great forethought given to anything we might need/want from the yummy welcoming basket to games to CDs to literature and magazines about the area. The game room with pool table, ping pong table, and more was a hit with our teenagers. Even Grandma played ping pong! We cooked some meals in the fully stocked kitchen and had plenty of seating for everyone to sit to eat. Several of the boys (young and old) took the boat out and fished/caught! A few ladies hiked the Yonah Mountain trail. Memory making at its finest!

Great house. It's well equipped and comfortable. We had 10 people, including 2 kids and everything went great including the supplies for the kids, next time we're in town this house will be the first one we look at.

Our large extended family stayed at the retreat for thanksgiving and it was everything we hoped for and more. The house is spacious and allowed for some folks to lounge and watch football while others just hung out and talked. We lounged in the hot tub, drank wine on the porch and took advantage of the boats everyday. Every where you look in this house there are little thoughtful details!

The place was beautiful and uniquely decorated. Robert and Deborah were so welcoming and stocked the house with plenty of towels, kitchen stuff, anything we needed. Each bedroom had a different and fun theme. The pond / fire pit area was a great place to hang out. We took the boats out and threw Frisbee around for hours during the day and built fires at night for smores !

I can't go too far saying how much I enjoyed staying here. The surrounding areas were charming and scenic, the cabin itself was pristine and well-appointed, and the weather beautiful. John checked in frequently during my stay, a 2-weeker, but I needed nothing since all had already been provided. Anyone would be privileged to stay here.

The description was right on. It was beautiful both inside and out and VERY easy to get to. John had easy rules to follow for the house that ensure both yours and following experiences are great. The cabin is within 10-15 minutes of many many little side trips like Helen, hiking, or wine tours. Overall everything that is said in the description is true.

Great cozy cabin. Had a great stay here with our three boys. Lots of nearby fun at Helen and hikes close by.

Great location, quiet, a perfect get-away.

Listing was absolutely accurate; plenty of room to sleep 7 at the house, everything was as described. Some useful kitchen shares like coffee and spices were in cabinets and available to use. Beds were comfortable; everything was in working order. The welcome booklet provided via email covered all of our concerns ahead of time and gave great detailed directions on getting to the house and nearby attractions and stores. Friends that accompanied me described the house as "charming" and "cozy." It is in the woods so you should not be surprised by the occasional wildlife outdoors and possibility of a bug indoors.

John made is feel like family. He was very informative. Inside the home was everything we needed. Home was immaculately clean and fresh when we arrived. We would definitely recommend this home to others.

It was a nice and quiet cabin in the woods. Plenty of sleeping space for the family. Very relaxing. Had a few questions and the host was available to answer all of them in a timely manner. Would recommend to anyone and will probably stay there again.

This cabin is great! It's very cozy, and despite being 2 bedrooms you can fit 7 people in a bed comfortably. I stayed here with my parents and girlfriend for a wedding at a nearby vineyard and we were the closest people to the venue, including everyone in the wedding party, which was wonderful. The owners also sent us a very detailed packet that had everything in it from how to safely use the fireplace to recommendations for every vineyard nearby. Cell phone reception is very iffy (I had one or no bars depending on where in the cabin I stood) but the wifi and landline made communication a non-issue. A nice surprise was the modest record collection I found when I got there, very enjoyable to listen to. Overall a great trip.

Heikki is a wonderful host We went there for a wedding and the cabin had everything we needed We even had coffee the view is amazing plenty of things for kids to keep occupied I recommend this cabin for large groups Can't wait to come back in the summer

Heikki was an outstanding host. Very responsive and the house was amazing. It was perfect for our family vacation. The view is incredible, the house is convenient to everything and has everything you would need. It's an awesome house. Next time I go to Helen I'll definitely stay here again.

We enjoy that weekend. Really clean and we have all to have a nice weekend.

Great house with amazing views. Would definitely recommend.

We loved this house! A perfect fit for Christmas for our large family group. There is separate private spaces for each person or couple but also had plenty of space when we had family activities for all! Our favorite space-that wonderful large dining room table in a room with fireplace and wall to wall windows. The kitchen was stocked beyond expectation, the game room and media room were also fun favored spaces. The setting for this house is an added bonus. We loved having access to outdoors and the wonderful mountain top view right outside almost every door with all the amazing porches. This great mountain side neighborhood is alpine themed to match the nearby fun town of Helen that is an endless supply of family activities, especially at Christmas! The close by town of Cleveland had everything we needed. Thank you to our Host for making us feel so welcome in this lovely home and a quick response to any communications. Wonderful week!

This is a very nice property. Clean, great location, paved road, great communication. Very roomy, great if you have lots of people. 3 levels. Enjoyed the pool/ping pong table. Galley kitchen, so kind of small but has everything you need. Nice big dinner table. Host very responsive & more than helpful! We had a wonderful time!

Our group of 14 had a wonderful time! Plenty of space, and things do. Great location near Helen, GA. I would definitely recommend to others.

Fantastic cabin. 10 of us stayed here for a weekend - clean, spacious with lots of things to do like ping pong and pool. Scenic views from the deck and just over 10 minutes drive from Helen. Fully recommend!

Two of my friends and I stayed at the cabin for our solar eclipse trip. The cabin has a bed and two narrow couches. There were blankets and towels available. Everything was really clean, and the kitchen had plates and various utensils in addition to a toaster, a stove, a coffee maker, a fridge, and a toaster oven. There were also some coffee grounds available. The area around the cabin is really beautiful. The cabin also has a great observation deck that we used for stargazing. Heikki is an amazing host! He gave us really good instructions on everything before the trip. We made a mistake of arriving after dark, but his instructions were so good that we were able to find the cabin pretty easily. Every time we had to contact him, he would respond very fast. I would recommend this cabin for hiking trips because parts of Appalachian Trail are available nearby.

This is a thoroughly charming and spacious cabin right in town, but across the river so you feel private and secluded. Not shown in the photos are 2 spacious bedrooms with private baths, and comfy queen size beds. We especially enjoyed the back porch overlooking the river. David was quick and easy to communicate with. Check in and out was a breeze. We would definitely come back again!

Awesome place. Annie was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The views are amazing and the picture doesn't do it justice. Sitting on the patio with a fire going watching the sunset was really nice. Will definitely stay there again if we're in the area

View to Helen is spectacular. The Americana collection in the house is terrific! Very comfortable in living area! We had a bear in the (URL HIDDEN) it could happen. We loved it! Find the light switches...the character changes when the up-lights are on. Leave porch light on when you go to dinner as it is very dark up there when the sun sets. Relax and enjoy being out of the "hustle" down in town. The owner is very genial!

An absolute treasure! Beautiful home, quite elegant. Close access to everything, but appears to be in the wilderness. You won't go wrong staying here! Literally 2 blocks to the center of town. House is huge which gives you a lot of privacy while staying with other guests. We had a private patio, and also had access to large communal patio. We enjoyed a leisurely morning sitting there watching the large balloons float by. You can see for miles. We will definitely come back here if in the area again. Annie was right on top of it responding to messages. Wonderful hostess! Wonderful place to unwind. It was just what we needed.

This is the type of Airbnb service you expect to get. The Lodge was great and was a unique place to stay in Helen. The home was cleaner than most hotels and provided plenty of privacy. It also had great access to the city of Helen. Great place to stay for large groups. Looking forward to staying there again.

Great location right outside of downtown and super quiet. Breakfast in the morning was very good. Owners were very friendly. Puppies and cat were also very friendly and adorable. Only thing to note is that the private bathroom has only a tub. There is a shower downstairs that the owner let us use.

This was the best airbnb experience I've had! Sherri and Tom were lovely hosts, and listening to Tom play music was incredible! Sherri cooked us a delicious breakfast in the morning & all of the pets were a bonus!:) thank you for a great stay!:)

I rented Serenity to host a bachelorette party and we really enjoyed staying there. The cabin was clean and spacious (we had 8 guests) and there was more than enough room for all of us. Also, VIP Southern Wine tours will pick up from this location. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks Kevin!

We had an awesome time on this trip. The cabin was just as the pictures showed on the internet. The cabin had everything we needed - except a pizza cutter - which we bought and donated to the cabin. We loved the screened in porch - where we played cards every night!!! We also enjoyed the 2 living areas...The kids had the lower level and we stayed on the main level...having the 2 hot tubs was also nice. It was also nice to have a run for the dogs - very nice and we will be booking again !!! Thanks Kevin for opening your home to us !!! Phillip, Vicki, Kaleb and Kalli Smith, Mary Price, Chandler Reeise and Cameron Zuber...

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Great home for a weekend away, and we loved the view from the cabin. There are other homes nearby, but the area was very quiet the weekend we stayed there. Helen is only a 15-minute drive if you need anything from town.

Great house perfect for family vacation with grandpups. Thank you!

Quiet, relaxing area. Large selection of VHS tapes that brought back some memories! 2 hot tubs as well. Great cabin, really enjoyed it. Kevin was very quick to communicated and answer questions, even late into the evening. Great host.

Great cabin and for a perfect weekend getaway. My only wish was fun the weather to be a tad warmer so we could really enjoy the amazing deck.

We enjoyed our stay at Kevin's property. We had 4 adults and 4 kids in our group. The deck was fantastic for the adults at night, while the kids enjoyed the hot tubs and game table etc. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and not feel crowded. We will definitely keep this place in mind for future trips to Helen. Yonah Burger and Yonah Pizza and Subs were good fast places to eat near by. In Helen, we ate at an authentic German restaurant called Mullers Famous Cafe. I've been to Helen many times, but this was our first time at this restaurant and we all loved the food...kids included! In addition to downtown Helen, the property is near Anna Ruby Falls.

Excellent place to stay. I took my family to the water park in a Helen, GA and the home was literally right around the corner. There are guards at the gate to check you in, so you feel really safe and secure. A beautiful golf course surrounds the area. The home is huge!! Enough room for two families. Place was clean and cozy. Patty's communication was excellent! She was so nice and gracious. You will not regret staying here for a family vacay. PS: there are several wineries and downtown Helen is very close by!

Wao, wao, wao, my cousins from naples florida came, to stay couple of days at mountains, they loved place, very easy to check in spacious rooms kitchen living back porch awesome i recommen this place, very nice,,,

We absolutely loved everything about the house. We recommend it 100%. It is better than what you can see in the pictures, because it is very cozy and every decoration detail makes you feel welcome and in your dream vacation trip. Also, it is very close to Helen, which is the cutest town we have ever been to. Thank you!

Patty was great through the whole process with communicating. She sent us all the information that we needed to check in and everything was as promised. House was clean, spacious, and in a nice wooded area. Great little weekend retreat!

very nice place, clean quiet . 100% recommended

I've stayed at Randall's place a few times and always love coming back. Looking forward to next time!

My family (my wife and I, two daughters and one of my sons–in-law) met at Randall’s cabin in Cleveland, Georgia to celebrate my wife’s birthday. We had a wonderful time. Randall’s place is a two story wooden structure with a bedroom and bathroom, living room/dining room and kitchen downstairs, and two spacious bedrooms and a half bath upstairs. The cabin was extremely clean and more than well equipped. While we were only 5 people, there were sufficient dishes and silverware to accommodate at least 10 more dinner guests. The stove was a modern glass-top variety, the refrigerator was clean and spacious and the dishwasher worked perfectly. Randall has amassed a huge collection of decorator items and these are distributed throughout the cabin. The furniture in the living room was comfortable to sit in or lounge on, and the mattresses on the beds were quite comfortable. The upstairs bedrooms have sliding glass doors leading to balconies. There were more than sufficient towels, cleaning supplies, pots and pans, etc. There was always a sufficient supply of hot water. There is a coffee maker. There is central air conditioning. The water at the cabin does have a slight iron taste (not surprising, given the soil type in the area). The taste of the water was not unpleasant, but we did buy a couple of 2.5-gallon containers of water for drinking and cooking. While the cabin is close to a few other houses, none are close enough to detract from the pleasant feeling of privacy that we had during our stay. The loudest noise we heard was the sound of crickets and amphibians at night. One morning a bear visited the yard briefly, found nothing interesting, and quickly moved on to another property. Since there is only one indoor shower, I felt that the demand on it would be high, given that there were five of us. However, the outdoor shower, complete with hot and cold running water, and surrounded by an enclosure open to the sky, was the favorite showering place for the members of our group. Each of us used the outdoor shower more than once, and with its wooden floor to stand on, no one had to go back inside with muddy feet. Courtney Lane, the last road link leading to the front yard of the cabin, is a relatively steep dirt road with some rock surface, and could have some slippery patches if there is heavy rain, but we did not have any difficulty driving into or out of the front yard. We prepared some meals at the cabin (breakfast every day, and two dinners) and found some surprisingly good restaurants in nearby towns. Cleveland and Helen have food markets, but there is not a market of any size in the immediate vicinity of the cabin. We went tubing on the river at Helen, and the family went zip-lining there as well. Saturday traffic leading into Helen was quite heavy. We enjoyed our stay at Randall’s place, and were sorry...

Had a great time at Randall's listing. Lovely spot and beautiful cabin. The kitchen has all of the necessities and the beds were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend it! Randall supplied us with plenty of water for our stay, but I would encourage bringing your own drinking water for longer visits as the water at the cabin has a very strong metallic odor/taste.

The host was quick to respond, left a bunch of waters for us, there were matches there as well, and even some firewood. I gave lots of feedback on the previous page, but the real issue for us was the cleanliness of this place, it needs some serious TLC. Our friends left early and my husband couldn't wait to get out on our final and 3rd day. I didn't realize (prob my fault) there is no Cable or wifi and cell reception is terrible. We will not go back here. There are others that I saw that I wish I would have booked.

We planned to have a cabin booked at the last moment and after a long research, we found Randall's Cabin was the most suitable one for us, since we wanted to limit our drive to be within 70 miles from Atlanta. Lastly we booked that and quite excited to reach there as soon as possible. The way Randall had given the information regarding the Cabin starting from approach from the road to the cabin to the information and goods availability was just awesome. The cabin was well equipped with almost everything you need for a normal day to day work and also with the special items which you can utilize if you wanna spend your Christmas in the condos. We had a great fire camp and enjoyed to the fullest during our 2 days of stay there. And yes for fire camping/grill someone needs to carry the goods such as charcoal, wood and lighting fluid and lighter which Randall has already mentioned in the information sheet. There were sufficient towels, blankets etc.. The kitchen is well equipped with very beautiful and special varieties of utensils with large quantity. If someone needs to arrange a romantic candle night dinner in the cabin along with some wines this place is just perfectly suitable and awesome. :) We went to the near by Desoto Fall which was merely within 1 mile from this place. Also the combination of calmness of this cabin along with the sound of the flowing water of the Desoto Fall is making this place a perfect and beautiful for stay. The evening fire camp along with the sound of the flowing water just made the moments more beautiful. We went this place in winter and it was great though the trees are bare during this time. If someone plans to visit this place during the fall time, oh my God, it will be a most enjoyable and scenic place. This cabin is all surrounded with the trees with a great view. We loved this trip a lot and kids enjoyed to the fullest. We enjoyed a lot.

Quaint little cabin in remote location. We certainly enjoyed our stay. If you like hiking in the Chatahoochee National Forest, its great place to stay.

This cottage is the perfect "little cabin in the woods" house! We very much enjoyed our weekend stay and the house was quite cozy and comfortable. Randall has kept the place clean and well stocked, and he is very quick to respond with any questions we had about the cabin and the area. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who needs to get away from it all!

This house was fantastic! Very cozy and stocked full of everything we needed for a long weekend. The outdoor shower was great, and the candle light evenings were fun. The seclusion of the house was great as well, felt like we were all alone on the mountain. Very close drive to Helen and a nice cafe just down the street. Highly recommended!

Terrific and unique home. Sherri was a pleasure to work with; she was quick with responses and provided great information about the home and the local area. The home is well appointed and clear directions were left for operating the fireplaces, etc. The house is filled with funky artwork and furnishings. The only potential shortcoming is there are only a few rooms considering the massive size of the home, and the bathrooms are all located within the rooms. This wasn't an issue for our group of friends though. We had a great time hanging out on the porches and playing foosball, pool, and ping pong. The living room is cavernous and allowed are entire party of 14 to gather together in a single room all weekend. Highly recommended for groups looking for privacy, beautiful views, and a space to enjoy each others company.

This house is fantastic! There is all of the amenities and then some. We had so much fun tubing down the river, relaxing on the porches, and exploring the eclectic art collection that we did not leave the house all weekend. Highly recommended!!

The property by the edge of the Chestatee River is spectacular! The pristine forest, the gorgeous trees and the river are all marvelous. Our group spent most of the time either on one of the three enormous and comfortable porches or down by the river.
