July 4th getaway
We were happily greeted by a wonderful house with such a down home feel. It was nice to have a high functioning kitchen to save money with breakfast preparation. It was equally as nice to have plush bedding and comfy couches. Let’s not forget watching the fireworks from Helen over the lake. This will be one for the record books. Thanks Sabine!!

So peaceful!
Sabine was wonderful in her communication and accommodating our schedule. The property was cozy, peaceful, and ready to settle in. Everything we needed was there for us to enjoy even while the weather was cool and rainy. If you're looking for some entertainment, we found the quaint little town Helen close enough to enjoy the kitchy attractions.

Perfection!
My husband and I were looking for a home to rent in the area as our oldest daughter was getting married just a few miles away in Clarkesville. This house was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! From the minute I reached out to Sabine to ask about drive time between her home and the wedding venue, I knew we'd found a winner. Sabine was kind enough to actually drive the route and give me an exact drive time (who does that?!) And as soon as we unlocked the door and walked in, we felt completely "at home." This sweet house is cozy, clean, comfortable, incredibly well-stocked, secluded but close to shops and restaurants and the wrap around porch overlooking the lake is fantastic. Staying here made our "wedding week" that much better, and we cannot wait to return. Can't recommend this highly enough!

About the host

Hosted by Sabine Head

Host profile image
Born and raised in Germany and after extensive traveling throughout Europe finally settled in the US. I spend 16 years in Ft.Lauderdale and enjoyed the last 12 years here in the beautiful NE Georgia mountains.
I am a certified personal Trainer (hence the exercise room in the basement) and I am now semi retired, just taking care of my guests (along with my husband, 2 dogs and a cat). We live about 20 min. away in Cornelia.

Why they chose this property

I bought this property in 2005, having looked at quite a few in this area I instantly fell in love with the location, the incredible view of the private lake and the feeling of total relaxation, a little piece of paradise indeed !

What makes this property unique

The main benefit of course is that our property is located on this wonderful lake, surrounded by mountains. Since the porch is quite high up on the back it really feels like you are living right in the trees, almost like a tree house with a lake and mountain view, can't beat that.
