Been coming to Dahlonega for 25 years, This is definitely one of the best rentals we ever stayed in.The is bigger than the pictures show. Everything you need is in the house, the huge playroom was a big hit for the Grandboys and the creek out the back door was amazing for all to enjoy.The house was very easy to find and check-in was a breeze. If you get a chance rent this house and also only a few minutes from Dahlonega.

We chose the property because we have a large family and we were there for my daughter‘s wedding and it was perfect . Multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, and large areas for people to gather and just catch up. A beautiful screen in porch to sit and visit and look out at nature. The large kitchen made it easy for meal time. It was just beautifully decorated and very welcoming. Corresponding with Chris was very easy and he was quick to respond. I’m sure that we will be returning to Dahlonega for future gatherings, so I look forward to possibly renting the space again in the future.Dahlonega Georgia is a beautiful area to visit and just get away from it all. It’s beautiful scenery and downtown shops are fun to visit. Our daughter was very at R Ranch, so the property what’s very convenient to travel back-and-forth to the venue

It was a beautiful spacious home. My only complaint is that there were no hooks in the bathrooms to hang your towels up when you get out of the shower.

Great Weekend Getaway!

The house was large and well-stocked. It’s a beautiful location right on the creek. We had plenty of room for everyone. The beds were comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely go back. Maybe for a longer stay next time!

This was a great house. Our entire family was able to stay in one spot for our son's wedding. It was a beautiful setting. Unfortunately we were not able to get down to the creek. My mom said we need to come back here again.

Beautiful house, would definitely stay here again. Something to note, there is room for 10 people, but there are 5 queen/king beds, so it's really set up for 5 couples. It really isn't set up for children. There are no bunk beds or single beds. Nevertheless we made it work.The creek is gorgeous, but you need to know that it is a long steep hill to get down to it, but we loved it and even caught a couple of fish. The yard is immaculately kept.Inside is beautifully decorated, there is a very nice screened porch on the upper level, which looks out over the backyard and the creek. We spent a lot of time sitting out there. Convenient to town but secluded enough to feel like you're all by yourself.After comparing this house with 3 others that my brothers got, this was definitely a great deal and by far the nicest of them.

Beautiful Spot in the country

The property lived up to expectations and lies in a beautiful location. Accomodation fully met our family needs. The property is a little off the main road and is a secluded quite location. Well appointed with all the amenities we required. Would recommend this property for a family getaway.

Great spot. Not too far from town, but just far enough. The yard is gigantic and grassy and the running creek is an important element of the property not to be overlooked. Huge game room in the basement with ping pong and spikeball (could use a pool table and/or foosball!). It serves well as a place for a family retreat with kids.

EXPECTATIONS EXCEEDED!

Great home on an absolutely beautiful property. Way more spacious than the photos. There is a huge game room downstairs and bedrooms on every level. The backyard and trail to the water was perfect for us. We fished, tubed, hiked and sunbathed all from the back yard.

We stayed here for three nights and the house exceeded our expectations. It’s much bigger than the listing makes it seem. Two or even three families of four could comfortably stay here. It felt like a great value for the space and location.Our kids absolutely loved the creek behind the house and spent a lot of time exploring it. The location was perfect—close to town and an easy base for exploring the mountains and the mountain towns to the north.The house had everything we needed for our family, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We’ll definitely be staying here again the next time we’re in the area.The only minor gripe was that I couldn’t find a good spot to hang up a towel, but that didn’t take away from an otherwise excellent stay.

Wedding weekend

Our family of 10 from Pennsylvania and California stayed here for a Labor Day wedding. The house was beautiful and had everything we could possibly need. There was plenty of room and the screened in porch was a great place to relax with a morning coffee. The house is in a very private location and yet close to anything you may need. Highly recommended.
