Good property but WiFi is not reliable
The property is well maintained and clean. Good for family relaxations. There are a couple review mention that the wifi is the issue. so I have contacted the host to check and inform her/him that I will be working remotely during my stay for a week and need reliable internet. The host confirm that there is no issue. Just to find out after the arrival that I couldn't use the wifi to work there for the whole 3 days and have to submit urgent PTO. My husband also missed a video call for job interview. The TV also lost connection several times. My son have a hard time with the TV. I reached out to the host. The host refunded a little money for the inconvenience . And later on we got additional charge for fee for extra cleaning because of a dog paw print on sheet. I have been travel and stay at many rental places with pets, I had paid extra for pet to stay but I have not get extra charge for cleaning due to pets because we usually make sure that our pest do not mess up things. I personally not going to stay at this place again.

Great property
We loved our stay. We had some problems getting locked out - completely our fault - and the owners were very helpful. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Well equipped!
We loved our stay at this Rabun Retreat! Very spacious for our family of five plus grandparents. The best part was the toys our kids were greeted with! They had things to play with all weekend. Updated bathrooms and kitchen. The furniture could use an update and WIFI was very spotty but otherwise we didn’t want for anything the whole weekend!

Awesome for a family
The place was spacious and had all kinds of things to entertain our family. The den with all the toys and the TV was awesome! Tons of extra blankets, soap, etc., and also plenty of cookware in the kitchen. The wi-fi was pretty spotty, it went in and out (it's phone line DSL), but getting on the internet wasn't the point of our vacation. The place is right near Rabun lake, and we went hiking in Tallulah gorge, and at two nearby waterfalls (Angel and Minnehaha). Hillside Orchard Farm was right up the road too. Overall a great place.
