Adanaylah - A True Log Cabin Experience, Pet-Friendly, too!

The Moody Family for whom Moody Hollow is named built Adanaylah some time in the early to mid 1950. We love the history and natural resources of the Southern Appalachians and that love is reflected in the decor of the cabin. Many of the antiques in the cabin date to the 19th century from the Appalachian regions of Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina. While the cabin may be over half a century old, all the appliances, plumbing, and electric are new. We are now happy to be able to share this magical place with others. Adanaylah is a pet-friendly cabin and a one-time per pet fee will be added if you bring your dog(s).

On the main floor, there is the living room, dining area and kitchen all open to each other with a central gas log fireplace for those winter nights. Two bedrooms are located just off the living room and share the bathroom with a shower/tub combination. Out the back door is the large screened porch with a swing and rocking chair. Beyond the porch is an open-air deck with seating around the table for four. The gas grill is around the corner under the front porch roof.

The third bedroom, the only television and the washer/dryer are located downstairs. Please remember that there is no live tv. The television has a DVD player and there is a small movie library. You can only watch DVDs on the television! Access to the downstairs is through the screened porch and down the stairs. Be sure to take the key!

Interesting Facts The cabin is perched over 2000 feet above sea level but just up the road is the highest point in Georgia, Brasstown Bald, which rises to 4,784 feet! High Shoals Creek which runs through Moody Hollow has been a source for breeding stock of the indigenous Brook Trout.

Take a walk up the road along the creek until you get to the last gate. You'll come to a small private trailhead. Follow this trail and it will take you to the beautiful Upper and Lower High Shoals Falls and a spur of the Appalachian Trail. The falls are just a 15 minute walk from the cabin!

Moody Hollow is nestled in the Chattahoochee National Forest which covers over 750,000 acres! The numerous creeks and streams nearby are home to some of the best trout fishing in Georgia as well as one of the greatest number of salamander species on the planet.

This is a pet-friendly cabin and a one-time per-pet fee will be added if you bring your dog(s). The pet fees that will be added to your reservation are $75 + tax for the first and $25 + tax for each additional.

Minimum Age Requirement: Adanaylah is available to families or to guests 21 years and older.
Parking: Space is available for 3 vehicles.
Access: The road is dirt and gravel from the entrance of Moody Hollow all the way to the cabin.
Pets: Adanaylah is pet friendly.
Location: 10 miles from Hiawassee, GA and 12 miles from downtown Helen.

The deck does need some attention, but we were busy enough that we didn’t use it.

Location

Davis cabin is in a great location. It’s off the beaten path but 20 mins from downtown Helen! It’s a private location. The cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The only complaint I have is that the only TV is downstairs. We enjoyed our stay.

Very, very old

This rental needs a lot of work. It was really clean inside but the outside deck is awful and the outside windows and screens need desperately to be cleaned. We had a hard time getting past the odor and I guess what is just mold and age. The location is great and we loved the creek running close by. Probably won't stay here again. WAY OVER PRICED for the rental quality.

Our family loved our time here!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Adanaylah was just as shown on the website, and it was a wonderful "travel back in time" experience. We brought our dog with us and he seemed to enjoy himself as well. You can hear the creek running from the screened in back porch and it's very calming. Beds were comfortable and we found everything we needed while there. If you have old enough children, they can have the downstairs to themselves and you can still check on them from the upstairs hallway where there is a grate in the floor to communicate, our kids loved having their own space! Would definitely stay at this cabin again! Georgia Mountain Rentals is the ONLY company we will book with, they truly treat their guests like family and it doesn't go unnoticed.

Great stay, but...one significant complaint with the bill

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Adanayla cabin was great. But...I stayed for three nights and almost 40% of the total cost was all overhead & additional fees. So, the cabin ended up being much more expensive. I left the cabin in immaculate condition & I don't feel like I should have been charged $144 for cleaning fees. I ended up doing the dishes, stripping all the sheets, etc. I'm not sure what the cleaning lady did, but it certainly wasn't $144 worth of work. I probably will not rent a property from GMR again just because all of the additional fees & unnecessary charges. Cleaning fees should only be charged for extended stays &/or if the cabin actually needs cleaning after the stay.

Comfy Stay with Quality Touches

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice. Attentive management gave accurate directions, and made sure we had everything we needed before and after arrival. Quiet, cozy place with quality cookware and comfortable beds. Nice short hikes to waterfalls. Note: It was cold when we arrived and takes a while to heat the place up, but seems to hold the heat well once warmed. Shampoo is not included and stores are a few miles away so be sure to stop for groceries, etc before arrival.

Oktoberfest experience

We stayed in the house just to sleep after a long day of touring Helen and wineries. It was as hard to find the location where address says, we end up asking neighbors where it’s at . The cabin was quiet but due to age , it had musty odor. The basement room was not too secure for everyone as it’s totally separated and requires key to get upstairs. Overall the weekend stay was ok .

Nice place and great location for outdoor activities

Overall, my group and I had a good time at this cabin. The cabin was supplied with everything you need and was clean. It's also in a great location for outdoor enthusiasts. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are spread out. One of the better waterfalls in Georgia is also a close walk from the cabin. The only downsides were there's really no yard and the downstairs bedroom/tv room is a little claustrophobic. Kids may get a little bored, so just bring tablets/books/games for them. The gas fireplace wasn't working and maintenance responded quickly to try to fix it, but were unable to. Cell service is very limited in the area, however the cabin has wifi. If you don't mind a slight rustic feel to your accommodations, then you'll enjoy this cabin like we did.
