About this property

Georgia Retreat | Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Stargazing

Freedom Finder cabin is one of 2 cabins I own in the area. They are both part of Freedom Finder Vacation Rentals. The other cabin, Memory Maker, is just 5 miles away. If Freedom Finder isn't available for your dates, make sure to look up or ask about Memory Maker cabin. Also, if you have a a few more people in your group, it's convenient to reserve both cabins.

Freedom Finder is a spacious cabin with 3 bedrooms; 2 upstairs and one downstairs. With 2 fire pits, hot tub, luxurious porch swings, and an outdoor bed, the outdoor space is an oasis of tranquility. Grill some burgers on the AKORN and play a game of corn hole or horse shoes. On those colder days, curl up by the fireplace and play some board games or watch a movie. There's plenty of room to stretch out with 3 full-size sofas in the den. Freedom Finder is also dog-friendly (with a 2 dog maximum and $100 pet fee for each dog).

Welcome to Freedom Finder cabin. You'll immediately notice the rustic décor with bears, and antlers throughout the cabin. Aside from the charming décor, here are the top reasons guests love our cabin:

Here's what some of our previous guest like about Freedom Finder:

 Great cabin and has all you need for cooking

 Just when you think she thought of everything, there's more around every corner. I will say this as simply as possible- don't miss the opportunity to spend time in this home, filled with love, soul, and all of the amenities one could imagine.

 This property has every single thing you need to enjoy your vacation. It's spacious, clean, well appointed, cozy, perfectly located and Lynette provides personal touches that make you feel like a guest rather than a renter. It's located close to beautiful hiking locations, scenic parks and downtown Helen. It's on a quiet road that allows a good place to walk your pups, that Lynette graciously welcomes.

 We felt comfortable the moment we arrived. Some of our favorite things in no particular order: water pressure, tap water—amazing, the porch, the jacuzzi. Our host thought of everything we might need or didn't know we needed. The décor, the beds were almost too comfortable.

 Elizabeth is a great host and it is well stocked with anything that you might have forgotten.

 Elizabeth is a delightfully kind and thoughtful host going above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. Very responsive and proactive in meeting the individual needs of her guests

 This experience was awesome! They have thought of so much to try and help you with the simple things you forget in your traveling chaos.

 Everything I needed in the kitchen, was available. What we wanted out of our stay, was comfort and quiet. We got that and so much more. Everything we needed was on hand, everything. Kitchen fully stocked. Throw blankets galore. Most favorite, how homey and cozy the cabin itself is. Modern amenities, but still cozy and comfy

 There were personal touches (left hot cocoa, and personalized note) that made it very special.

 We had a great time celebrating thanksgiving week here. Everything was perfect and comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked for our turkey dinner.

 The cabin was furnished with everything you could possibly need - and I mean everything!

The entire house is available: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, den, kitchen, hot tub, porch, fire pit, and swing.

Guests are able to check-in with the smart lock. I'm available anytime to answer questions.

Trails run through the Chattahoochee National Forest to the Anna Ruby and Raven Cliff waterfalls. In Smithgall Woods State Park, Dukes Creek is known for trout. Hardman Farm State Historic Site includes an 1870 homestead and the Nacoochee Indian Mound burial site.

Such a cozy, beautiful area!

This is my family’s second stay in this cabin and I have to say, you won’t find a better place to relax. The cabin has everything you could want or need. The views and hikes are spectacular. There are so many great accommodations from a welcoming cabin, to a hot tub, super cozy just all around. I will definitely be back. The cabin is very clean and very nicely put together, it has that very homey touch. Thank you so much!

Great Place for a Long Weekend

My husband and I choose this property for a long weekend getaway with our dogs. We were beyond impressed with everything about our stay, from the spotlessly clean accommodation, to the above and beyond communication from our host, to the picturesque grounds, and the thoughtful touches like a welcome basket and all the amenities we could possibly need (even things you don’t typically find at VRBO properties like toiletries, coffee, books, games, etc.). It’s also super convenient to local attractions like state parks, wineries, and some wonderful restaurants in Helen. This was honestly the most thoughtfully appointed rental property we’ve ever booked and we will definitely book it again the next time we find ourselves visiting Helen.

Amazing family getaway!

We had the best time at this cabin for a nice family getaway. The house was clean along with some personal touches and amenities. The kids had a blast making s’mores at the firepit and we loved the nice walking areas for the dogs. 5 stars for all things here at Freedom Finder! The location to town was also super convenient especially with young kids. We highly recommend!

Heavenly!!

We had the most amazing stay. We were snowed in for a few days and we weren’t sad about it. The place was clean and cozy. Lynette was so easy to talk to and very quick with responses. She had a s’mores kit and a hot cocoa bar for us which I thought was so sweet! The beds were so comfortable!! There is absolutely nothing that could have made the stay any better. We enjoyed the fire pit and we loved the jacuzzi. We will definitely be making a trip back to see this beautiful slice of heaven!

Fabulous Property and Location

This property was perfect for our family of four hosting elder parents (grandparents). It had all the nice touches. The fire pits were fabulous and well stocked with wood. The outdoor spaces provided lots of extra room. The porch was cleaned which was thoughtful for those wanting to sit outside. The beds were excellent. Great communication with owner.

Extremely Pleased!

Our visit was wonderfully enjoyable and relaxing. This was in no small part due to the level of attention given to the preparation and staging of the home and the property. I travel frequently and never know what to expect from a property. I can only say that my wife and I have never stayed in a vacation rental so well appointed. We really had everything we might need provided for our stay. And the outside yard, which provides relaxing vignettes like the fire pit, porch swings, rocking chairs and star gazer made the outside experience just as meaningful and enjoyable as the inside of the property. We are so excited to return for an even longer stay next year!

Wonderful Christmas getaway!

Our adult family snuck away for a weekend to Helen before Christmas. The Freedom Finder was absolutely perfect! Warm, cozy, clean, well-stocked and fully decorated. Coffee, hot chocolate with fixings, teas, and smores provided. The host goes above and beyond to supply the sweetest of amenities. Made the experience so special. The cabin was beautiful, the fire pits were inviting, as we had pretty chilly weather. We enjoyed the hot tub after our long hikes. Played games and watched Christmas movies and just enjoyed each others company. Wish we had stayed longer. Would definitely book the Freedom Finder again! Thank you for such a special welcome!

Games and entertainment—yes! Gathering spaces—beautiful! We didn’t need to do much research or bring much with us because Lynette had everything together.

About the host

Hosted by Lynette Guy

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Lynette!

I’m an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking, kayaking, and cooking, and my passion for nature inspired me to invest in my first cabin in beautiful north Georgia back in 2018. I currently live in Atlanta but spend as much time as possible in the area, soaking in the mountain air and discovering hidden trails.

I know how important it is to feel at home while traveling, which is why I’ve thoughtfully curated my vacation rentals to offer the perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and special touches that make every stay memorable. My goal is to provide a space where families, friends, and groups can connect, unwind, and create lasting memories.

I’m always happy to share tips on local activities, dining, and must-see spots, so don’t hesitate to ask! I look forward to hosting you at one of my properties and helping you experience the best of north Georgia.

Why they chose this property

I love the north Georgia mountains, waterfalls, and hiking trails in the area. It was my love for this area, combined with a love for hospitality that prompted me to purchase a cabin in the area. When I saw this particular cabin, I fell in love with it. Since purchasing it, I've enjoyed doing some updates and making it a truly unique place.
