We stayed here the second weekend in Aug. We moved to Pa form Georgia and always liked to get away to the North Ga mountains. The North Ga mountains are loaded with cabin rentals for couples. We have been looking for a long time for a cabin get away for couples nearby. There a re a few but, none as nice as these.
