The cabin was even better than the description. Extremely quiet and secluded with the National Forest in your back yard. The cabin is situated 15 minutes south of Blairsville and only 30 minutes NW of Helen. Lots of hiking, waterfalls and general outdoor fun just off your steps!

Nice cozy cabin nice and quite area perfect for families

Loved staying in this cabin, it's always nice to just get away from the hustle and bustle and sounds of Atlanta and spend time in nature. We had a small scare, the neighbors down the way popped some fireworks so it's not *complete* solitude but I think that makes it a nice plus for anyone who doesn't wanna be *too* far away.

Just stopped through on our way home to visit some friends. Property was as clean and as advertised.

Great little cabin. Some surprises are driveway is straight up incline up the mountain. No coffee pot so bring k cups. You cannot adjust thermostat we were cold. It was set on 65. Maybe they could weather strip doors to keep cold from coming through so much in the winter.

This cabin was super cute, quiet, and peaceful! It was very clean and well kept. We only stayed for a couple days, but wished we could have stayed longer! It it very convenient to beautiful hiking trails and of course the cute town of Helen. Would definitely recommend this property! I’m hoping to bring my whole family back next time!

My wife and I had a great time hiking in the area. The location was perfect and the hot tub was great!

Great 3 night stay. The driveway is steep but not as scary as a lot of the comments make it sound. Lots of stairs and up and downs if that's a problem for you - it wasn't for us. The hot tub was nice and clean for an older hot tub. Hope you're not afraid of dogs as you will get daily visits from random dogs at the front door and campfire. The cabin was nice and cozy. Housekeeping could have done a little better as there were beer caps and random trash throughout the porch and property. It is a cozy property and a great place to make memories with friends and family. The cabin had toiletries and a fully stocked kitchen if you decide to stay in and cook. I really wish there were blinds on the front and back door for privacy. It looks like there was at one time but you can see straight in and out at night. The wooden pull downs on the other windows didn't offer much privacy as you could see through them inside and outside at night as well. The views are nice but more on the woodsy vibe. It is 7 minutes away from beautiful overview stop off where you can see the sunrise over the mountains. I would highly recommend to do that. We had a great stay and would recommend this cabin.

The property is as advertised: wooden floors, gas fireplace, comfortable bedding, functional AC/heat, clean hot tub, and outdoor firepit. The reason I titled this review “almost perfect” is for 2, albeit minor, reasons.
1) The inside of the property was very clean, but there were 4 small green bags left on the back patio full of old dog poop. It made for a nice laugh, but other guests may find it gross. Hopefully this review will serve as a reminder to the cleaning crew to double check the patio.
2) It’s a pretty steep incline going up to the property. Thankfully the main road (Papas Mountain Rd) is paved, but some gravel from the property’s driveway had spilled onto the road and resulted in some uneasy arrivals.
Another thing to note, you will have to take Richard Russell Scenic Highway in order to get to Helen. This is an extremely curvy road with steep drops on the sides and lots of up and down. It is beautiful when the weather is nice, but rather intense when the weather is bad. Keep that in mind when picking a vehicle for your trip. My 2019 Toyota 4Runner had no issues.

Perfect little cabin for a family recharge. Jacuzzi was a treat and we also loved making s’mores at the firepit. Only “complaint” is that every sound upstairs carried through the whole house, but that’s just part of the cabin experience.
4.8
The location was convenient to many of the parks and local attractions in North Georgia. The setting isn't secluded but is very private. The layout and decor of the cabin provides a very cozy, warm experience with plenty of room for 4 adult guests without feeling cramped. Vacasa was very easy to work with and very responsive.

The cabin was a beautiful sight to be hold as me and my partner drove up. Unfortunately upon closer inspection the trash wasn't taken out, there was silly string and popped balloons around the fire pit, and a used tampon in the upstairs room. We decided we would make do I mean wasn't anything to horrible. Yes the tampon was gross but it could have been worse. On our second night the chimney actually caught fire and burned through the wall. Both fire extinguishers in the house were empty and the water house didn't have enough pressure to do anything about the flames. Finally firefighters got it under control and three hours later we were relocated to another cabin in the area.

This was the perfect location for us to stay to do some fall hiking and Oktoberfest activities in Helen. It’s secluded and a bit of a haul from anything, but that’s a good thing. Hot tub was extremely nice after long hikes.
Only 2 issues which prevented 5 stars: we found a juul vape pen under the covers of one bed. The bed seemed clean, but that was a bit odd. And also the internet went out after the first night. Not a huge problem but cell service is also not great out there. So, we couldn’t download directions to out adventures in advance.
Overall, good stay!

As advertised. This was the perfect cabin for a restful getaway. The cougar sculpture/painting on the stairway was a great touch. Extremely clean and a well equipped kitchen. It was all there. I will rebook this one when I need another rest from work. A quiet, out of the way setting. The outdoor gas grill needs serviced (not heating properly) but aside from that I have no complaints. Contactless entry and checkout. Thank you for the relaxation. This one is #1 on the list.

Home was as described. Well lived in, which resulted in a few of the items being worn out or broken. The roof leaked a little during a rain storm. Upstairs faucet didn’t work correctly and leaked. The grill had broken knobs. I submitted all of these for repair, and vacasa serviced them the same day which was good. Other than that, it’s a pretty typical cabin with a nice secluded area. Very quiet.

Overall I loved the cabin and location. It was very clean and comfortable. All of the basic things and then some were stocked in the kitchen and bedrooms. Beds were extremely comfy! Just be prepared for a very steep driveway.

This was a quaint little cottage. It was very clean. We had everything we needed. The hot tub was wonderful after 3 hard days of adventures! We really enjoyed our time. Look forward to going back.

Cabin is pristine knotty pine, seems almost new. Comfortable furnishishings and beds. Good Wifi and TV. Appliances include dishwasher (!) and washer/dryer. There are 3 queen beds but limited living space makes it best for no more than 4 folks IMO: couch and one easy chair in LR, 4 stools at kithen counter (or outside picnic table) for dining Very private wooded lot: three cabins on the hill, only one of which is slightly visible thru the trees.
Great location halfway between Blairsville and Helen, with a beautiful waterfall on the same road about 2 miles away. Access hill is very steep, might be impassable in snow.

Beautiful and private. Great amenities. Everything you need is available for a comfortable stay.

Quick anniversary trip with my husband. Cabin is in great location between Helen and Blairsville. It’s away from it all and nestled in the woods along with two other cabins on the same mountain. You don’t see the others, which was nice. Drive to the cabin was beautiful on the scenic byway. Will definitely book again!
4.8
We really loved this place. We've done a lot of cabins and it was one of the best by far. Very clean, fresh small, had lots of amenities in the kitchen as well. Location was stellar - it's 20 minutes to both Helen and Blairsville if you want that but also even closer to amazing hikes, Vogel State Park, and the views atop the Appalachian mountains.
Only downsides: the unit was missing simple things like salt and pepper, etc. Make sure you bring ALL you need to cook.
4.8
We loved everything about this cabin tucked away on the side of a mountain. Ease of access, privacy, beautiful drive in any direction for miles.

Nice cabin, My sister and I hike throughout the year and have stayed in many cabins and really enjoyed the peacefulness of this cabin (only 3 on the street) and the gated entrance to road for security. Would have liked some plastic glasses to be able to take to the fire pit and outside and not have to worry about breaking since all were glass.

I would like to thank the owners of BigFoot Bluff for allowing me to bring my dogs! I will always support animal lovers first. The cabin is awesome! Well equipped kitchen - nice furniture - comfortable beds - beautiful setting - very quiet! This cabin is close to Blairsville for convenient shopping but far enough away for a lot of privacy. 2 Porches and an awesome fire pit. Lots of outdoor space. I plan on renting this cabin again in the summer and would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

The only issue was my son had to sleep on the sofa bed without sheets. I reached out to Vacasa on Friday afternoon 12-3 and spoke to Ashley about thiis. She said she was going to contact the owner and that I would be contacted. I never heard from anyone..

The property was amazing. Very clean and inviting. Hot tub was a great time. Extremely cozy is what some guests said. All amenities are in the cabin is what i like as well. Would love to come back to stay again.
Power outlet in back patio isn't working and slow drain in lower bathroom sink. Are the only minor issues I experienced.
