The property was great. Plenty of room/space. Loved the rustic feel it had. Back porch/patio was huge along with a big open yard. Also a very cool loft area especially for younger kids. Close to boat ramps as well as Toccoa and Lavonia. Would definitely stay here again.

We decided to take a last minute trip to Georgia and booked this cabin the day before we left. It was short two day trip but it was one of our favorites so far. The cabin is beautiful and the property is just as beautiful. We had 3 adults, 2 teens, 3 young kids, and a dog... The house suited all of us perfectly! We will definitely be back for a longer stay!

Awesome place to relax…
I spent 12 amazing days at the cabin. It was so peaceful. You aren’t far from Seneca or Clemson, if you’re looking for things to do. But the cabin provides enough necessities that you won’t need to leave. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. A beautiful cabin with an old fashioned feel along with modern amenities. And the host was absolutely lovely! Definitely recommend.

The Bee's Knees
We had a great stay at the "Bee & Barb." The house was exactly as described and the pictures do it justice. Yes, it is old house, but it has a lot of charm and character. The deck was particularly impressive. The property owner was very responsive and accommodating. Some minor quibbles: we could not get the TV to work with our kids video game console. We wish there was a bigger dinning table. We could fit everyone, but it was a bit tight especially with all the food spread out.

2nd Family get together here
The farmhouse has welcoming indoor and outdoor spaces for a small family reunion. So nice to have a huge deck, a furnished kitchen, a washer/dryer, 2 bathrooms. The king size master bed was super comfortable. We used all the ac units and fans. We did not run out of hot water. Having a full size fridge beats the hotel suites. Thanks so much!

Great Memories Made
We enjoyed spending time with our adult children and grand child in your rustic and historical but very well updated cabin. We loved all the extra touches (Christmas decor, laundry, toiletries, blankets, and kitchen supplies). It was nice to slow down and have some good old fashioned fun playing games and doing puzzles.
We stayed here for the Christmas holiday and were completely charmed by this cabin!! We had plenty of room and some extra! It was so welcoming and the scenery and views were beautiful. We loved the location of this cabin and everything it had to offer. So grateful to our host for welcoming us!!

Lovely and Quaint
The pictures are nice but the property looks better in person. We loved the house with the exception of the draftiness in the living room area. I think if there was a to close it off from the hallway, that it would stay warmer. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

High school Fishing
This property was great! Just enough space for 2 fishing teams (1 coach & 2 students times 2!! ) Parking was best for 1 tuck & boat in the driveway. Only issue was street parking was not wise with boat-in-tow, so the yard was utilized for the 2-nite stay. Took care not to mess with the grass as best they could. All in All, pleasant stay & would book again if fishing brings us back. Thanks!!
