We love the #lakelife around here as well as the majestic mountains. So much to do and see right in town. We have a handy Welcome Book in the house full of dining options, things to do, shopping, hiking and waterfall trails. Wineries with live music events and tastings are plentiful! And a short 25 mile drive to Helen for tubing or zip lining.
There are several excellent boat rental places in the area! We use Lake Chatuge Marine, Young Harris Water Sports, Boundary Waters... The fellas will help you out! All kinds of water toys too, like jet skis, stand up paddle boards and kayaks.

We had a fantastic stay at this property! The check-in process was smooth, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The space was comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home.Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area!
We loved our stay. The cabin was beautiful and had everything we needed. There was so much space and the view was breathtaking. Definitely plan on staying again.

We had a wonderful time. The house was amazing and the views were awesome. I would rent this house again.
We enjoyed the big beautiful cabin with plenty of room for a large family group. The view from the outdoor deck and swing was amazing. It does require a curvy drive up on an unpaved road, but overall a great stay.
Was an amazing experience, went with some friends and there was lots of space for everyone. Had all the necessities, and an absolutely breath-taking view! Most definitely worth it for the price.
Was a very peaceful stay. Triple check that your GPS takes you to the right road. Outside of that we loved the home and view.

GREAT VIEW
Great view from a very nice cabin in the mountains. Nice clean place with decent internet and TV. The host was very nice and provided great instructions on how to enjoy the cabin and surrounding places of interest. Very nice fire pit. Even though the weather was dreary we had a great time in the cabin.
We loved our stay in Hayesville. Cabin was easy to find and just so incredibly beautiful. We had plenty of space for the 8 of us. Our favorite place was around the fire pit each night. It was very quiet and relaxing. Owner was very friendly and responded quickly with all questions. We would definitely want to return to this cabin.
A family reunited reunion at Hidden Escape after so many years.” Perfect Home setting “
We were looking for a house with no stairs for the main entrance because one of our members was a disabled veteran with limited mobility that needed a bedroom & bathroom on the same floor. This house was perfect for our group. Amazing view off the left side deck of the lake & surrounding mountains. We definitely will be back to visit again. Very clean & accommodating house with lots of room. We also enjoyed the fire pit area that overlooked the beautiful view. 5 Stars
Beatiful settings. Challenging One Lane Private Driveway.
Very private location. The views are outstanding. Often above the clouds. Property is well maintained.
Main levels furniture has seen a lot of use and is apparently designed for someone of Billy Barty’s stature. South facing windows on main floor could use some means of screening the very bright afternoon sunlight.
The one lane private driveway has few places that one can comfotably pass another oncoming vehicle.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
Thoroughly enjoyed this location since it was a very quiet, which is what we were looking for. Very little traffic on this mountain location. House was plenty of space for 5. Everything worked well and house was properly stocked. Two critiques: 1) Biggest critique is that the beds are small and extremely creaky. Owners should invest in better beds, especially at this rate. 2) Bedroom ceiling on the main floor leaked during a thunderstorm.
We arrived to our beautiful vacation home with amazement of the view from the deck. The house was big enough for a houseful but we only had 3 - with 3 large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms - we each were able to enjoy our own privacy. Easily access to get into house and it was perfect for our quiet vacation for 5 days. We enjoyed the home cooked meals and the gorgeous view and weather. Grilled outside and enjoyed the peace and quiet of cabin living. We woke up each morning to a gorgeous sunrise and view atop the mountains. Watched the sunset also - would definitely come back here for another great rest and relaxation vacation. Owner was very fast to communicate and was a joy to work with.

Nice interior
This property had beautiful views , the interior was nice.
Spacious bedrooms.
Hotub was fantastic.
The exterior- porch boards are soft, holes in them, didn’t feel safe standing on the porch. The whole porch needs to be redone, nails sticking up. Needs to be completely redone.
The windows were very dirty and holes in the screens.
There were no spices, ziploc bags or foil.
If up grades were made I would consider staying again.
Needs some TLC…
We enjoyed our visit to the Hayesville during the long 4th of July weekend. Each evening, we could see fireworks from the deck. Loved the swing with the perfect lake and mountain views although it was very hot during our visit. The AC worked great. Bedding, towels, mattresses were all comfortable. There is only one bedroom on the main floor so stairs are required to get to the loft bedroom (no privacy door) or the basement bedroom. Bathrooms were clean. The house was well stocked. We enjoyed the puzzles although one was missing a piece! There are lots of various games and the internet worked great. My only complaint was the extremely leaky coffee pot which I did report to management and being woken up early by loud woodpeckers pecking on the house!
The house was great. Views were breathtaking. Saw multiple deer around house/property. Our teens enjoyed the firepit, smores, and watching football downstairs. Furniture was comfortable but well-broken in, so you sink in a bit. Beds/bedrooms were comfortable. Sunrises/sunsets were amazing. Had a small issue when fireplace stopped working, but they were very responsive and were at the cabin first thing next morning.
We chose this cabin because it was handicap accessible. My wife has mobility issues and is confined to a walker and wheelchair. It was great not to worry about stairs at the entry and having the extra driveway on the side of the house. We were able to get her downstairs by using it to drive her around (using 4wd) to enter the downstairs from the outside. And while there is a little plastic bar in the tubs/showers, there are no metal bars/handles, walk-in showers, or other accessibility resources. The toilets are also low to the ground and required another person to assist her getting on and off.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will be back!
Great place! Bottom floor walks out to firepit and hot tub, and has its own tv viewing area, bedroom and bathroom: so thats great as an added getaway space for larger families. Final mile or so of the road to the cabin is single lane, but has a few spots for passing, so drive carefully.
