Cozy Weekend for Valentine's Day
We had a great time at this cabin, despite the rainy weekend. Tons of kitchen supplies to cook with, but bring your own ingredients, spices, oils, coffee, etc. Very very clean and well kept! Lots of cute decor throughout the cabin, as well as games, books, and DVDs! Would have loved to visit when the weather was nicer, as we weren't able to use the hot tub or fire pit, but the gas fireplace was lovely. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Property
We had such a wonderful time. The property was perfect for our two dogs to be able to run around and get all their energy out. The fireplace was amazing and kept us warm all week long! It felt like home. We were super excited to find an Uno deck and played several hands on several occasions. The property has everything you need and the host is the epitome of southern hospitality. 10/10 recommend!!!

To start, I was able to come a day earlier due to availability with the cabin. We beat the weather and woke up to a beautiful Snow White Friday morning! I recommend staying @smokerise the atmosphere is amazing and the host stayed in contact throughout the icy conditions making sure we had all the amenities necessary.

Cozy and comfortable
We truly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It's just outside Helen and is in a perfect location. The cabin was the ideal size for our two families. Minus a little dust, the place was clean and cozy. We celebrated Thanksgiving, and there was just enough space for all 6 of us. We really enjoyed the fire pit, hot tub, checkerboard, dartboard, and pool table. Definitely recommend this place!

Lovely Cabin
My wife and I spent a couple nights (wish it was more) and the cabin was very nice and clean. Close to town, but far enough for privacy. Great for our two dogs with the fenced yard and close to hiking trails. Hope to visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Steve Fleming

Host profile image
The Smokerise Cabin is owned by the Fleming Family. The Flemings purchased the property in 2015 after completing a 30-year career with the United States Army. We have been so pleased by the number of quality renters and many military members (present and past) who have appreciated our home the way we do. Come enjoy the North Georgia Mountains in a relaxed setting...you will not be disappointed.

What makes this property unique

Our place is for those who want to relax and feel like you are staying at someone's home not a rental. We offer a 3 level 3BR & 3BA home on 3.5 wooded fenced acres. It is private, relaxing, comfortable, inviting, easy and convenient to Helen without being in Helen. We are just 3 miles from Helen. This is our home - it is decorated with a warm feel and has it all from slippers to everything a gourmet chef would need. All you have to bring is yourself, clothes, food -- and (of course) a great attitude.
