Cute cabin in the woods

We enjoyed our stay in this cute cabin. Very clean and well maintained. We had everything we needed for a fun weekend away. We were delighted to find a new winery just down the road. Very convenient location and easy to find.

Lovely cabin

Darling place. Very well equipped. Loved the gas fireplace. The only drawback was the last stretch of road was a little treacherous, but we managed just fine.

Home was as neat and clean as ALWAYS!! Kitchen was properly stocked with utensils and even coffee was provided although we did not use it. Four adults stayed here with great comfort and all plan to return. A great place for quiet getaway in a wooded environment.

Clean

We have stayed in several places over the years and this is by far the cleanest we have ever stayed in. Kitchen stocked well with plenty of plates, glasses and utensils. We really enjoyed the fire pit and thanks for the wood. Close to several wineries and a distillery

Loved Our Stay

This house was in the perfect location. It was out of town and somewhat secluded but it didn't take long to get to restaurants and shopping. It was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved staying here and we will be back in future! Thanks so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

Fantastic

The cabin was phenomenal. Unbelievably clean, fully equipped kitchen, and beautiful property. Woke up every morning to birds singing and deer grazing out front and out back. We used the fire pit every evening which made the nights perfect. If I’m ever back up this way I will definitely stay here again.

Quiet and clean with a great layout

We enjoyed our stay in this spotlessly clean, well-designed property. The location is nice and quiet, but still accessible to Dahlonega. We did not have time during this stay to use the grill, fireplace, or firepit, but hope to do so on a future visit.

Weekend stay for wedding

This little cottage was perfect! The place was very clean and comfortable. The pictures are very accurate but the house was even better in person! The host gave us everything we needed for a nice weekend. The deck off the back of the house has a spectacular view of a quiet, secluded forest. Close to several wineries and hiking. We will go out of our way to stay there again!

Great Cabin

Highly recommend, great 2 BR/Bath cabin with a peaceful outdoor patio, grill, kitchen. Great location with easy access to numerous winerys Cavendar Creek, Kaya, Frogtown. Owner was very responsive and helped us tremendously when we messed up our booking and she fixed it for us at midnight on our arrival. Could not recommend more.

A proposal I’ll never forget!

I can not say enough good things about this trip and property! First off the communication with the host, Joy, was quick and very helpful. This house was everything we wanted and more! Soooo cozy and had everything you needed. My fiancé actually proposed at sunset on the back porch. We will definitely be coming back to celebrate every year. And the town of Dahlonega was amazing Thank you!!

Clean and Beautiful Stay

We loved staying here! The property was exactly like the listing shows.. even better in person! So clean, (which is one of my biggest concerns ALWAYS when booking), it seemed “new”. It was equipped with all that you would need in the kitchen, and we used the grill on the back deck, looking out to the trees. There was a Nice fire pit… that we sadly didn’t get the chance to use. The views and drives in and out of the area were scenic and wonderful! There are so many wineries close by! We visited 3! Overall… would highly suggest this property to anyone seeking a peaceful setting.

disappointed in view, but I guess it was as indicated on line.

all very good. we did expect a better view of mountains, but we did enjoy the cottage. we would like to suggest that grab bars be installed in tubs, tub seemed to be a little high and hard for older people to get in and out without following.

About the host

Hosted by Joy Helms

Host profile image
My husband, Bill and I have been in Dahlonega for over 22 years. We have 4 adult children, all married with wonderful spouses, and we have 5 grandchildren and another one on the way. My husband and I both continue to work and enjoy traveling when we get the time, gardening, concerts and projects around our house!

Why they chose this property

Bill and I looked for several years before we landed on this perfect property. We decided to build 2 cottages, but with enough distance between them to ensure privacy for both cottages. The location is convenient to many attractions in our area but very private.

What makes this property unique

This area is quiet and peaceful - perfect for a weekend get-a-way or a week trip to the mountains. We included everything that we enjoy in our own home - a back deck to sit and enjoy the early mornings or late evenings, a fire pit for those brisk, fall nights and a nice fire place when you don't want to get outdoors.

There are many family activities in this area as well. Here are a few -
Appalachian Outfitters Dahlonega (canoegeorgia.com) canoeing, tubing and kayaking. (8.9 mi)
North GA Petting Zoo - Cleveland, GA (3.7 mi)
Babyland General (Cabbage Patch Dolls) Cleveland, GA (8.9 mi)
Chestatee Wildlife Preserve Zoo, Dahlonega, GA (9.2 mi)
Gold Museum - Dahlonega, GA (8.9 mi)
Gold panning (kids love this!) Crisson Gold Mine (8.4 mi) and Consolidated Gold Mine (8.6 mi) - both in Dahlonega.
