SpringBreak Cut Short,
I will give credit where it's due, the cabin was cute, clean, the beds were comfy, location was great, and the creek was a blast for my littles.. BUT the property manager was not responsive, the yard was cluttered, weird shed in the front, a bridge was connected to another property with a camper right next to it making it feel like someone could come on the property at any time, they had old ropes hanging over the creek (which my 8 year old swung on & it broke causing her to fall into the river & she landed on a tree), landline was not in working order, the hot water to the shower downstairs would go from scalding hot to freezing cold, and every night we would seem to get extreme headaches & feel very unwell. We had to cut our trip short leaving a day early because of how UNwell we felt. Highly disappointed with how this trip ended.

Chasing Waterfalls
Cabin is rustic & unique. Clean, but rustic. Beds very comfortable. Outside/deck could use a little spring upkeep, but understand not every guest respects their vaction home like their own home. We tried to clean up & leave better than we came. Movie projector/screen & hot tub was a highlight of cabin. Instant hot water heater made for great family of 5 showers at end of the day. Surrounding hiking/waterfalls were beautiful!

Perfect getaway with kids!
The cabin was cozy and truly gave the “cabin” feel. Beds were comfortable. Quick drive to Helen. The outdoor yard was perfect with so much fun stuff to do including a swing-set. The creek was perfect for the kids to play in. We will definetly be returning!

Such a cozy cabin that it was our 2nd time staying in. With the help of Cyndi and staff my husband was able to surprise me with a Valentine get away! There is so much that this cabin offers. Whether you are going to just bird watch or play one of the MANY games offered there’s something for everyone! Can’t wait to go back!

It was decent
The Cabin is way smaller than it appears in the picture. The hot tub did not work and the repair man was suppose to get a part the day of check in to fix it and never came back so we did not get to use it. I called the guest contact Friday afternoon and never got an answer. The twin beds in the room with the full bed could hardly fit an adult. The twin bunk beds was very difficult to climb in the top bunk. The stars for the top bunk are in the wall and not connected to the bed.

I wouldn't try to find this place for the first time in the dark, it's a bit like a geocache adventure. Once you get there you'll love it. It's tucked away and private, with charm and character. Beds are comfortable, hot tub is perfect, the stove is fun. :) Would like to stay again in the winter so we could make a fire. Cozy and sweet little getaway.

Quaint stay for a summer vacation
Spent 3 nights here for my 7 year old’s birthday. We enjoyed the backyard games and the creek. The s’mores left were a nice addition. We had an issue with the air conditioning and the upstairs tub but the property manager made it right. I liked having 3 beds in one room, so the kids could be together. Kids were scared of the animal heads upstairs over their beds but overall it was an enjoyable trip.

Absolutely perfect and peaceful
Great location, Very peaceful and relaxing! We enjoyed every minute of it. The property it self is beautiful. It was very clean. Lots of yard games and there’s a projector screen. (You gotta bring your own projector). I spoke to the property manger or owner and she was very polite and pleasant. Absolutely loved this property and we will be back. For reference 5 adults stayed comfortable. Only issue we had was getting lost and not having cell service but that had nothing to do with the host but I would screenshot the directions or look them up and print them out before you go. Not far from town about 15 minutes to Helen.

The BEST place we have EVER stayed!
My family enjoyed an amazing week at this beautiful cabin! The owner is wonderful! She went out of her way to accommodate our every need. She was highly attentive and super friendly. The cabin was spectacular! Our typical vacations are spent running around town, trying to keep our family entertained. This place did that for us! With dozens of board games and puzzles, tons of outdoor games, and an outside environment that lends to a relaxing time - we barely left the cabin! Everything was sparkling clean and there were cleaning supplies handy in case we needed them to clean up our own messes. The bedding was CLEAN and smelled good. I can’t think of anything negative to say. I can’t wait to come back!!!

We enjoyed the location and the spacious yard, just far enough away from town but not too far. The creek was great for the kids. As you enter the through the front door the stairs are right there, not a fan of that as they are close and very steep.
