Mountain Fever Cabin

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at Mountain Fever cabin near Helen! Close to downtown Helen and the north Georgia wineries. Also enjoyed some hiking at Anna Ruby Falls and Duke Creek Falls. The cabin was quaint and had all the necessities. Especially enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit!

Another fantastic visit!

We've made it an annual tradition to come to Helen during the fall. We love hiking, sitting by the bonfire and enjoying the hot tub on cooler nights! This cabin had a fire pit and very nice clean hot tub, and maybe a mile down the street was Unicoi and Anna Ruby Falls, so we had easy access to hiking as well! As a bonus we were extremely close to downtown Helen for lunches/dinners and shopping. The staff checked in several times to ensure we had a fantastic visit!

Honeymoon in Helen

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mountain Fever was the perfect little cabin for my husband and I to celebrate our honeymoon. It is in a great location- about 10 minutes from downtown Helen. It was clean and the staff checked in to see if there was anything they could do for us. We enjoyed our stay!

Mountain Fever Review

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: Our family of four, along with our beloved dog, recently enjoyed a wonderful stay at Mountain Fever, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere of the cabin.The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. The kids loved having their own room, fire pit, and access to walking the neighborhood, while we appreciated the fully stocked kitchen and comfortable furnishings. The dog-friendly touches, like a secure yard and nearby trails, made it easy for our pup to feel right at home.The location was ideal—nestled in nature but still close to Helen. We spent our days exploring nearby lakes, hiking trails, and parks and our evenings enjoying family time by the fire place and firepit, stargazing, and making s'mores.The hosts were fantastic—responsive, helpful, and clearly committed to ensuring their guests have a great experience. It’s not often you find a place where everyone in the family, including the dog, feels so welcome.We left with wonderful memories and are already planning our return trip. If you’re looking for a peaceful and family-friendly escape, Mountain Fever is the perfect choice!

Anniversary Retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time renting from Georgia Mountain Rentals, not the same cabin though. As always, reservation is easy, cabin is stocked with sufficient supplies and service from GMR staff is excellent. Cabin itself is spacious for just the 2 of us, and the location is convenient to the nature parks and downtown Helen. If you are sensitive to moth balls smell, make sure the cabin is aired out prior to your arrival. The cabin is secluded, however, you can hear others if they are loud outside and their dogs are barking. Other tips for a smooth and enjoyable stay: 1) Keep the front porch light off if you do not want bugs flying into the cabin; 2) Keep the long electronic door code with you at all times; 3) Bring your movies or streaming device as the TV is difficult to find a good channel and the DVD's are old and scratched.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was just as described with accurate/updated pics. Hosts were very, friendly and helpful, they gave detailed instructions on how to get to the cabin. Very cute place and would definitely recommend it to anyone. The only item I think should be addressed is the control panel on the hot tub was shorted out so some of the bottons worked different parts for example the jets button turned the light on underwater. They have it labeled so that wasn’t a huge deal plus the hot tub was really our favorite part and is what sold us totally on the property. The only other item and it could just be us now that I’m almost 40 lol... Would be the bed in the upstairs or the (King bed) it was pretty hard and by our second night it kept my wife and I up. So perhaps a mattress topper, other than that place was on point and even had some festive decor for the holiday season.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was below decent. Had some issues. We arrived late 11pm- from driving and our door code wasn’t working. So standing out side with a 2 year old trying to call someone they had to reset it for us to get in and took a while. Was not too happy about that. Bathroom ceiling was moldy. Not very clean cabin over all. Lots of dust- my son was coughing annd sneezing our entire stay unless we left the cabin - and weird slime on kitchen walls. I asked 3 times( because I sent a message one month out from our stay and still no reply ) if there was a pack n play mattress I was told there was and there wasn’t. For the price I would have expect better. Outside patio was very dirty.

Off the beatin' path, but close to it all.

Overall a good stay. Arrived late the first evening. Hot tub appeared to be off, no power to the display panel, and not very warm. We spoke with the property manager, and someone was there within the hour. He was able to reset the breaker under the deck, and back in business. Not sure if power went out recently, and caused that?? Able to enjoy it that evening after a nice hike. The maint guy also showed us how to use the main TV (not user friendly) YouTube TV is provided with the cabin, but we didn't see any notes indicating that. Once we figured that out, we were able to get local channels and more!. Probably go for a little updating here and there in the near future, but overall the property was well maintained, and clean! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would come back. Cabin is in a very quiet area, with only a few cabins back there. Could barely see them through the trees, even with little/no leaves on the trees in wintertime. Nice easy access with a big deck on the side and back.

Can't wait to book with GA Mountain Rentals again!

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: I booked Gretels Haus last minute. Jessica & Sherry were awesome. Very easy process. Location was perfect, very clean and just what we needed.Very comfortable with everything we needed. They even called the next morning to ensure checkin and all was ok. Only adjustments I suggest is hot tub was only 97/98 degrees, that's bath water but still enjoyed. Water pressure could be better in cabin and door code too long..lol..NONE of these would stop me from renting again.

Anniversary

Those in charge of the property were very helpful and courteous. The woman we spoke with brought us a bottle of champagne when she learned it was a trip for our anniversary. Then when I left my new shoes at the cabin the called asking about if I was missing them and arranged to have them sent back to me! I loved this cabin and will always have a good memory of our time there! We even plan to return to the same place one day!

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: our first cabin was cancelled because hot tub they put us in Mountain Fever. Had a hot tub but several appliances, etc. did not work. Two separate coffee makers broken yet kept there, internet very spotty and watching the TV was impossible due to outages. DVD did not work.And if you have more than 2 guests, keep your coolers close as the refridgerator was incredibly small, very much like a college dorm one. Place was clean and bed was nice.All wooded area no view at all.
