Very Comfortable

A friend and I had a girls stay and this was the perfect, quiet getaway. I thought it was the perfect size for two, maybe even three. The location was a little out-of-the-way but that's what we were looking for. You could hear the brook from anywhere on the property, even in the house with the screen doors and windows open. The only down thing I can say is there was a lot of items sitting out which didn't allow much room for the food that we brought along. If you're going to be cooking while there, make sure to bring all your own spices. I would definitely book again.

Cozy Retreat Cottage by the Creek

We've enjoyed Hightower Cottage numerous times because of its peaceful setting. The house is very comfortable and we love the front and back porch to relax and listen to the creek. The house is beautifully decorated and reasonably priced. This will be our regular place to stay in the north GA mountains.

The Best Around

Hightower Haven and Lisa are the Best! It's like a VRBO commercial, when we stay there, it's like our home. We are so comfortable there. Beside a creek, nature, inside decor, outside wonderful flora and fauna! Love the design of the garden outside. Could not ask for a more accommodating venue or hosts! The best!

Romantic Mountain Getaway

This cottage is adorable and so clean. A peaceful, relaxing haven for sure! So comfy inside with a cozy electric fireplace. Very enjoyable just sitting outside on the front or back porch, with the creek running along the back and the firepit. Even had skewers for roasting marshmallows & outdoor games (played cornhole)! Great location too! We will definitely stay there again!

Hikers love soft beds, hot showers and clean laundry. This place delivers all…

This is a cute and cozy cottage, tucked away on a quiet country lane. We had such a relaxing time and the property exceeded our needs in every way. We were in the area to complete the Georgia section of the Appalachian trail and our final day of hiking ended just a couple miles up the road. The shower had great pressure and plenty of hot water. Bed were super comfy and the laundry room was perfect. So happy to have found such a nice place to stay and would recommend to fellow hikers as well as anyone looking for a peaceful place to stay in Hiawassee.

Great cottage and perfect location

We love this area is Hiawassee so much! The house was very clean, super cute and had all the conveniences of home!! House is 15 min to the town of Hiawassee and 30 min to Helen. Lake Chatuge is our favorite lake, we spent lots of time there. Rent a boat at Boundary’s, awesome people. We saw several deer on property. Owners were quick to respond. Wi-Fi worked great. Cellular in the area is spotty which is expected.

Perfection

My brother and I enjoyed this home so much! It reminded us of much simpler, slower times. The home is decorated so nice! May sound strange to some but one of our favorite features was the back screened door. Made us think of our grandparents. The brook is magical. We had coffee on the porch each morning and enjoyed the sounds of the water flowing. The flowers in the front are so beautiful. Thought I'd mention there are not ceiling fans in the bedrooms. I know alot of people sleep with fans on. There was a small desk fan in the smaller bedroom but not the larger bedroom. I recommend this home 1,000%. Thank you to the owners for allowing others to enjoy.
