About this house rental

This spacious country home sits pretty on a hill overlooking the private pond and is only 10 miles from downtown Helen. The main level has several incredible gathering areas including a large kitchen, dining room, and a cozy living room with a wood-burning stove. The entire house has been tastefully decorated with lots of amenities and thoughtful touches.

The coffee maker at Southwind is a standard drip-style that takes basket filters. Bring you ground coffee! Besides the standard kitchen appliances, there is a closet filled with small appliances! There are two crock pots, a panini pan, an ice cream maker, a two-burner electric hot plate, a food processor, an electric skillet, a blender and a quesadilla maker. This closet is located in the hall on the way to the garage where you will find an additional refrigerator, if needed. In this hall are the beautiful front-loading washer and dryer, too.

For entertainment, there is satellite television and WiFi. If you must work while on vacation, there are several desks waiting for you to set up office. Take a break on the front porch, the perfect place to relax and unwind, watch the birds and wait for the three docile cows to come to the fence for a visit. Don't forget the fishing poles! The pond is for your fishing pleasure! There is also an outdoor fire pit and gazebo for evenings outdoors. In the summer, enjoy the pool and the outdoor seating areas. For meals cooked outside, the gas grill is equipped with both burners and griddle.

No small beds at Southwind! There are kings and queen only. Every bedroom is equipped with a television and plenty of room to sneak away for a little quiet time. On the first floor are two bedrooms, the master king and a guest king. The master king bedroom has a private bath, including a jacuzzi tub and walk-in shower. The guest king bedroom has a bath with shower/tub combo just in the hall. Upstairs is a king bedroom with private bath and then one king and one queen with a Jack-and-Jill bath.

Please be mindful of the full-time apartment tenant's parking spot just past the garage and leave room for him to come and go. There is parking for 5 or 6 vehicles at Southwind.

Southwind is a beautiful property, obviously much loved. So comfortable and the furnishings were amazing. Great antique but sturdy and comfortable as well as beautiful. Had a very cozy feel although it was a spacious home. The pool made it fantastic! everything was very clean and worked very well. The pool sparkled and there were extra floats already there. Extremely infteresting books avail (if I could afford it, would book a few days just to read through the library). Every kitchen appliance known was stocked and great quantities of silverware, plates, etc. Beautiful landscaping, plenty of running room and the pond in the front yard. Close to town but you feel like you are away from all of that. Highly reccomend this property for your family getaway. Bone up on ROKU tv and take your passwords with you.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We appreciated the prompt response from the management reference the few issues we had.When the toilet next to the stairs overflowed on Christmas Eve (our first night stay) they sent someone on Christmas Day to check it out. Also they sent a plumber the day after when the bathroom toilets and bathtubs in the first floor were not draining properly. Probably due to the heavy rain and full septic system the master bathroom toilet had a moldy smell and it was loose.The house was mostly an enjoyable place to stay, however it is very outdated, the mattresses were clean but way too soft and there were many pieces of old furniture that made the house look like the owners left or passed on and it is being rented almost as is. I would also suggest that you bring kitchen cleaning items such as dish rags, towels, sponges and disinfection solution to properly clean the counters and stove. They did provide one tiny sponge, a tiny bottle of dish soap and dish pods for the dishwasher, however if you plan on using the kitchen as we did for most every meal you will need more cleaning supplies. Most of the days we stayed there it rained heavily and we were not able to get outside, however the outdoors area with the small lake and swimming pool looked beautiful and inviting. Again we appreciated the great and timely communication before, during and after our stay. Thank you.

We all felt property was fair but could really be a gem. The outside needed a good power washing and pool needs work as liner was coming out of sides (needs liner lock). Shower curtain liners could be thicker and fit better. Chairs or benches around fire pit would be nice. There were no instructions for wood stove operation. The bedrooms were nice, as was dining space, living room and bathrooms. The pool deck had adequate tables and chairs for sitting outside. The house was very dated and could use updating but all in all we enjoyed our stay. We did have plumbing issue but repairs were handled promptly and I am sure owners will rectify the major repairs recommended as waiting for repairs cost us a half day of sightseeing in the area. We would not stay here again but think with some TLC this place could be a gold mine.
