The Last Resort Mountain Rentals

Wonderful! Have stayed here several times and love it. Every cabin has a hot tub and is clean, neat, and tidy! Will come back!

We have stayed at ‘The Last Resort” for many years. Friends and family have also stayed there, and had less than shining experiences, but we continued to visit. We will NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN. In our opinion, a decade ago, it was a clean dependable operation. The last few years, it has gone farther and farther down hill. The last three times we stayed there, things were progressively worse. We encountered maintenance problems that were ignored by on-​site property managers, horrible insect issues that were blamed on the climate, rodent droppings in multiple cabins, dirty cabins, dirty jacuzzis, and an attitude on site that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. The roads leading to your cabin may cause damage to your vehicle if it is not a high clearance truck. The maintenance vehicles of the maids and maintenance staff are lacking mufflers, (destroyed by the roads?) and wake you up every morning as they begin thier routes. The furnishings are home-​made and sub-​par when compared to tica cabins, or other cabin agencies in the area. There is a lot of construction traffic and noise daily, as they are expanding in most areas. The last time we stayed, there were unauthorized/​fraudulent charges placed on our credit card in addition to problems experienced on site. American Express took care of the FRAUD, but will never return. This is an example of a good business gone terribly bad in our opinion. We will never waste our money here again. Many locations are privately owned, but ALL locations are managed by the «on site family.» This family is less than friendly if you have a problem.
Sincerely,
A former repeat guest.
PSS We had spent THOUSANDS of dollars here in the years prior, but never again.
There are hundreds of newer, better furnished, cheaper cabins with better views all over that area now.

A cute place tucked away off a long dirt road that consists of individual cabins of 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms all with fireplaces and get this, jacuzzi tubs inside the cabins. No, not those little bathtubs with jets, I mean a jacuzzi that can fit four people inside the cabin. I had a one bedroon split level so you walk into the kitchen/​dining area with master bedroom/​bath off to side, go down a half flight of steps, poof, there’s a jacuzzi deck, down another half flight, poof is the fireplace and living room. All 3 decks have walk out balconies or patios with french doors and when you wake in the morning and sit out on the patio swing it’s so quite and calm all you hear are little forest creatures stirring and the sound of the wind blowing through the pines. Close enough to town so if you forget something you can go fetch it, but not so close as you hear traffic. Also close to Amicalola falls, downtown Helen and all the other sightseeing events. Has a full kitchen with all the tools, big soft bed, lots of views to choose from, cd player, gas fireplace with wood burning logs, a grille, everything you need to hide out. I’d go back every weekend if it wasnt so far away!
