  • Not meant for kids. Not clean enough for price. Not the cleanest.

    3/5

    The first night we got there after driving for over 6 hours with kids we had to wash the bed sheets in the master, the bed was covered in sand, had hair under the comforter, and bobby pins in the blanket, and one of the pillow cases had a stain and the stain was in the exact same spot on the pillow which tells me it wasnt washed. The POC was very sweet and offered to send a cleaning crew but i declined because i had already washed the sheets and planned on cleaning everything else. Cob webs EVERYWHERE, dust on floor in corners. They wanted us to start the dishwasher before we left but there was no dish detergent so we baught that. Not enough trash bag so we had to buy them too. The cookware options, terrible. The oven smoked bad when we tried to use it. There are stairs and with it being "kid friendly" i assumed there'd be a baby gate for the stairs, there wasnt so we also bought that. The property itself is absolutely not safe for small children. We stayed inside the entire time after trying to explore a little but realized quickly that that was not a good idea with our two year old because he kept going to the edge which is a good drop into a river. The driveway was absolutely terrifying. And the first night there we got there after dark due to unforeseen circumstances on the way up, the sharp left turn we had to make almost brought us over a cliff because there is no sign. The driveway and road is obviously not the owners fault but something to think about before booking.

  • Great house but…

    4/5

    This was a wonderful house with a very comfortable and lovely living room, dining room and kitchen but the drive in from the main highway was not for the faint hearted, even in a SUV! The beds were very comfortable but are not for shorter people or elderly as they are so high they are difficult to get in and out of. Again lovely home but definitely attention to that long road leading to it needs immediate attention. Also being asked not to use fireplace unless you had specific experience with that type of fireplace was a real disappointment especially with the really cold weather. We really dislike giving such a mixed review but in good conscience to both owner and future renter our party could do nothing else.

    5/5

    This stay was wonderful and exactly what we wanted for our family time. The rooms were perfect. The road is exactly as described but not hard to navigate at all. We would love to come again in the summer to swim and play also.

  • Great for Family Vacation

    5/5

    The house is beautiful and the location is incredibly private and remote but surprisingly close to a major highway! The house has beds, comfortable seating in living room, wonderful screened porch with a beautiful view of the river, and very nice kitchen. We enjoyed the fire pit which is only a few yards from the river’s edge. The nearby town of Dahlonega is extremely charming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

  • Wonderful stay!

    5/5

    We had a wonderful stay here! Wish we would’ve had more time to enjoy the house. But we did enjoy the fire pit with smores one night and it was so peaceful drinking coffee in the porch with the beautiful view of the river!

    It is a little ways off of main road, but we were well aware and all the info we were sent was accurate and helpful!
