Nana's Cottage was awesome! It has such a "homey" atmosphere. We loved just sitting in the rocking chairs and relaxing on the screened in porch, listening to the sounds of nature. Nothing could be more relaxing or romantic than the hot tub with the view of the river. Nancy thought of everthing you could possibly need, towels, hair dryer, candles, etc. We loved the feather beds. I could go on and on. Everything was so clean, it was perfect. I highly recommend staying at Nana's.

The Perfect Getaway

5 of 5

I cannot say enough about this cottage experience. In fact, I am a repeat renter! We found Nana's cabin when we were researching a comfortable, clean, place in the woods on a clear, beautiful river. Nana's cabin offers that and much more! Nancy (Nana) has thought of everything! She has several lots on the river and she has provided the following: beautiful crystal clear running river, kayaks, tubes, a slide, rope swing, deck on the river, swing on the river, fire pit, 2 porches (one screened for a "bugless" experience), nice clean hot tub, hammock, feather beds, fully equipped kitchen, relaxing living & dining area, 2 bathrooms, jacuzzi tub/shower, plenty of linens and towels, washer/dryer, & much more. Moreover, everything was immaculately clean! Nancy communicates with her renters and prospective renters quickly and personably. She is relaxed and easy-going, yet highly professional; which makes for easy, confident trip planning. And because she owns quite a bit of land on the bend in the river, you can tube quite a distance without having to leave her area, if you want. The screened balcony contains an eating area, rocking chairs, and a hot tub--all overlooking the river. The perfect place to relax or to headquarter while exploring the many amenities of the N GA area -- towns (including beautiful Helen), waterfalls hikes (Anna Ruby Falls, Tululah Falls Gorge, etc.), good restaurants, canoeing/tubing/kayaking and other fun activities. Nancy is careful to help you with directions to all local amenities. The pictures she has posted fairly represent the place. Customer service is also 5-star, as Nancy is always assessable to renters. I will return to Nana's cottage. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a quaint get-away in the woods on a run river!
Owner's Response: Wow, what a great review, thank you... we love repeat renters and have some that come every year!!
We try our best to keep our renters happy..and love sharing our place with them.
Hope to see you again soon,
Nancy

This is not a rough it cabin like many of the others.... Nancy has done an amazing job of making it feel like you are staying at your grandmas house. Lots of little touches and nice beds! We built a fire every night down by the river and had a nice hot tub twice a day! Its close to everything, but still far enough away to enjoy the wilderness! Very clean and plenty of towels and linens. Everything was well provided!
Owner's Response: Thank you we try to provide everything for our guests stay including some fire wood for the fire pits.
We want our guests to have the best experience possible.
hope to see you again soon,

Loved a week-long stay here! What a lovely, peaceful, private and relaxing place! Cottage is very nicely decorated and equipped with everything you can think of and more. Location is perfect, nature, river – all is so beautiful. Back porch is wonderful, hot tub is great, and beds are so comfortable. Owners are a great pleasure to deal with, great communications. Definitely would recommend to anyone. Will come back again!

We came up to Nana's cabin for a weekend getaway. The house was perfect, extremely clean and had everything we needed. It was quiet and secluded, the scenery was amazing as was waking up and seeing the deer traveling up and down the mountain. We will be back!!!
