• Beautiful home!

  5/5

  We visited here to celebrate a birthday. We had the best time. The house is beautiful and they have thought about everything. The kitchen is very well stocked and there so many areas of the house you won't feel cramped at all. Great time and highly recommend!

• Well Appointed

  5/5

  The house and property were very clean and enjoyable to stay at for our nine adult family during the Thanksgiving holidays. We had family gather from across NC and stayed for three nights. The house has a lot of amenities to entertain everyone as we rented off season when the lake levels were low and it rained for two days. House has plenty of space to move around and parking was good for our adult family. You are close to town if you need to run to pick up something but you definitely feel you are away and can enjoy the scenic area of the mountains and lake area. We enjoyed getting away to see Helen Georgia one afternoon. Fenced in area was a plus for our dog. Everyone enjoyed the sunroom overlooking the lake, hot tub, fire pit and hanging out on the porches each night. Plenty of kitchen ware on hand. We fed 13 people (more family that came for the day) Thanksgiving dinner with ease..We would recommend booking this property.

• Lovely Home

  5/5

  We loved staying at this home while visiting Hiawassee for a family reunion. The accomodations were comfortable and clean. The decor was tasteful and interesting. Everything worked as it should. The screened porches about double the living space for this home. The driveway takes your breath away the first time up and down, but we were able to traverse it with a 15-passenger van; so I figure if we could make it up, anyone else should be able to also. Thank you for accomodating our family.

• Great house

  5/5

  Beautifully decorated home, great entertainment amenities. Kitchen was a little lightly stocked with cooking untinsil, (bacon tongs, a few other things that cant quite remember) but you can make due. My personal only thing that I had issues with was just at the top of the paved driveway where it turns to gravel their is a little drop off so if your not in a suv or truck you may be a little to low. Not at all a deal breaker for me. Once I knew, I knew to navigate it right. The parking area is very large witch is a plus for several travlers.Over all for us it was a great stay!Family memories made! And that's always a !

• Lake was dried up

  3/5

  The cabin was nicely renovated with a beautiful back porch area. However, it would have been nice to know that the lake (we planned on fishing) was dried up/dammed. It was a large mud pit around the dock and no water. Also, as stated in previous reviews the driveway was a challenge. The area leading to the house was a little run down and the house was right next to a graveyard. These are all things that had we been advised we would have chosen a different house. The biggest issue was the lake. It was made clear to have a fishing license (we did)- it was not made clear that the lake was dry in this location during this time of year. Again beautifully renovated home!!

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Kat, we want all of our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we're sorry that you experienced some issues during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and we wanted to share the following:
  - We always strive to provide all the information before booking to ensure guests find the perfect vacation home for their needs, and we sincerely apologize we missed the mark. The listing description states that due to regulated water levels, the dock is only suited for canoes and paddleboards from mid-September to the beginning of April. However, we will update the description to ensure guests are aware the lake is drained at certain times of the year.
  - There are two driveways available for guests' parking convenience. The driveways can fit eight vehicles, and there is trailer parking allowed on-site.
  - We include a map on our listing so that guests can see the approximate location of the home and surrounding area prior to booking, but we apologize that this caught you off guard.
  Thanks for letting us know about your stay!
