Spacious In Ideal Location
Spacious house in a great location with a huge pool and quality hot tub. As others have also noted the house needs renovations, better beds, A/C, and could also use better stocking of cooking/baking tools and equipment in the kitchen. But overall would recommend. Also, a bear literally took a bag of food from next to the grill right before we were about to cook dinner.

Misrepresented Property and Unpleasant stay
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address an issue that arose during my recent stay at the property I booked through VRBO, [Property Name], for the dates 7/24/2023 to 7/29/2023. I am disappointed to inform you that the stay did not meet my expectations and I kindly request a refund for the amount I paid for my reservation. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for your willingness to list your property on VRBO, offering travelers like me the opportunity to experience unique and comfortable accommodations. Unfortunately, my recent stay did not align with the description and amenities presented in the property listing. During my stay, I encountered the following issues: Misrepresented Property Description: The property listing provided a description that significantly differed from the actual state of the property. Cleanliness and condition of the property, water stains on the ceiling and down the wall, no good a/c in two of the rooms, shower in the game room, was afraid to sit on the furniture, roaches in the game room and in the dining room, not a lot of pool chairs as they were broken and put by the trash barn, hot tub had some soap or something in it, some of the outlets did not work, the entire house had old and dirty furniture, bathrooms were not upgraded and floors/baseboards/carpets were dirty, pot and pans were very old and very used. Other issues Lack of Essential Amenities; Poor Maintenance and Cleanliness; Communication difficulties

Family getaway 2023
the house was found as expected. The pool and the hot tub were the highlight of the house and were found to be clean. The grounds are kept well and the whole place was clean. The kitchen was stocked with the supplies that we needed. Grill was not the best but we were able to get the burgers done, just took forever to get hot. Location was perfect, peaceful and very close to all the things we came to see in Helen GA. We would definitely stay again.

Poolside escape
The property was a great size for our family . We enjoyed the pool and the pool table. It definitely needs updating and is pricy for the quality of the furnishings. The yard needs a lot of attention and maintenance.

Family Vacation 2023
The home is beautiful. Everyone enjoyed the pool. The floors need redone, peices of the top layer of polish from the wood flooring is peeling off. I have read other reviews on this property talk about the need for updates but we enjoyed the old cabinets, and trim many other things left from the old to new of the property. We wanted a quiet relaxing vacation and thats exactly what we had. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.

Summer Retreat
Great location. Nice pool and hot tub. House is extremely dated. Not enough comfortable seating indoors for a large group to gather in one room. Many of the chairs- both indoors and outdoors were broken and not able to be used. The house was very dark with poor lighting. Many lamps were broken. With the amount of money guests pay year round- a few simple added inexpensive touches purchased at Walmart would be nice. Bathroom bath mats need to be replaced. Lamps and outdoor chairs need to be replaced. All in all it accommodated our group and everyone enjoyed.
