Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Banks County

The cottage was very clean and cozy. There were a lot of antique pieces. The hosts were very nice. The property is beautiful. It was very peaceful. As far as the town, there is not much to do. A lot of restaurants were closed Sunday, Monday, and Tuesdays. They do have a movie theater and a bowling alley. Helen is not far away. There are two sweet labs that roam the property. Certainly helped us with our doggie withdrawals. Eating and drinking is only allowed in the kitchen and the porches. The beds were firm but super comfortable. The washer and dryer are not for guests. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities and there was an assortment of Kcups to enjoy and we did. They also have some games to enjoy as well. The property has fairy lights going down the right side. The lawns were well landscaped. If you are looking for a peaceful, clean, cottage with beautiful views, and adorable labs, with nice hosts. You will not be disappointed

Maureen is a wonderful host, and the house was amazing. The decor was charming and I immediately felt comfortable. Although we had a couple of rainy days during our stay, there were plenty of games to play on hand, including a foosball table! The fireplace was a welcome feature on the chilly evenings. We had plenty of space to spread out in, and being able to have our family pet with us made us feel right at home. I would love to stay again sometime.

Josh's place was great for our stay in Athens. We both went to school at UGA, but now live in Colorado and were visiting for our post wedding celebration party and drove out with our dogs. The fenced in backyard was great for the dogs and the house had ample space for them well to lounge around in living room and on the screened in porch. Everything was as described and Josh was extremely proactive ahead of check-in, so we knew exactly what to expect. The beds were super comfortable as was the entire house. We spent a lot of time on the screened in porch, which was ideal with the weather this time of year. The location was great for us as we wanted to be close enough to downtown to easily get there, but also wanted a little more space than if we were to stay right downtown. It took us about 12 minutes to get downtown and access to Normaltown and Prince was even easier. We would definitely stay here again!

We loved this little cabin! It was perfect for my husband, 3 kids & I! When we arrived Friday, the place was covered in snow. It was a winter wonderland, so beautiful! Loved all the heaters and fireplaces inside, and especially loved the gas firepit on the back porch. The hot tub was a big hit, was the first time I’ve ever been in a hot tub and been surrounded by snow.

From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect and perfect location/setup for our getaway. Everything we needed with plenty of room, perfect for four guys on a golf trip!! Even had a brand new grill, updated appliances and perfect theater room to watch the Final Four games!! Can’t say enough about this place and the owners were very responsive and communicative throughout our stay. Five stars all around and would highly recommend!!

Loves our stay! So quiet and serene!

We stayed at Mary's home during Thanksgiving holiday because we have family in the area. The home was perfect - very cute, super convenient to get to Hoschton and in close proximity to shops and restaurants in downtown Brazelton and the highway (I-85). We always appreciate hosts that allow us to bring our dogs. We took some walks around the neighborhood and stopped by the local brewery one afternoon, who welcomed them as well. Mary was very responsive with communications, was flexible with an early check-in request and provided us with a helpful app to lock and unlock the door when the front keypad was temporarily out of service. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and hope to be able to return the next time we are in the area and need a place to stay. Thank you, Mary!

Had such a great time staying at this Airbnb! The place was just like the listing—super clean, comfy, and had everything I needed. The neighborhood was chill and felt really safe, with lots of cool cafes, shops, and fun spots nearby.

Great location in a gated area. Patio space was perfect for those cool nights. Second bedroom was on the basement level with its own couch and TV so was perfect for two couples to have their space when needed. Very clean and had everything we needed for our 5 day stay. Easy few minutes drive into town.

This was our second time staying here. We love the peacefulness of the area and that it feels like a second home as soon as we walked in. Great place to relax catch some fish in the kayaks and chill in the hot tub.

Ashley was a great host. The place was very accommodating four our group of 6. It is close to the town center in a very quiet and walkable neighborhood. The entertainment room was very entertaining and the hot tub was very relaxing. Highly recommend staying at this house. Great value for all that you get.

We were so pleased with our decision to book this home especially after being in downtown Helen and seeing the hotels we considered. It is close to town but in a quiet neighborhood— peaceful and great area to walk the dog. The home is spacious- very comfortable living area and large bedrooms. The 2 baths were perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed including 3 different coffee makers and popcorn! A very nice touch. There were plenty of blankets and throws for the cold weather and we loved the fireplace! So cozy! Maklen was super responsive and friendly, much more so than some of the other places I’ve stayed. We highly recommend Maklen and their home.

The location is fantastic for this Airbnb. We loved the privacy and quiet.

Lovely location and so close to a bunch of killer hikes and Helen

The lake house is beautiful. Very private and peaceful. The house looks even better than the photos. Our children loved the pool. We are already planning to return some time this summer. Thanks Ellen for being a great host.

Home was enjoyable with many games, puzzles, dvds, etc. Each bed and bath offered privacy. Disappointed that weather did not allow us to relax on the beautiful deck. Entry to home would be most difficult for one with mobility problems. Parking area slants deeply - one of us had to have assistance in navigating. Once to walkway, it was smooth sailing - flat and even. Two couples with children would be accommodated well with double bunks in third bedroom. Owner extremely pleasant and responsive.

One of the nicest and cleanest places we have stayed. Great location for our needs and cute downtown area with some nice restaurants. Good communication with owner.

Great place. Very spacious. 10/10

One of the best places I have ever stayed in. The host was very polite and I would most definitely stay here again.

Sarah was a fantastic host! Her communication was quick and helpful. Her home is beautiful! We hope to be able to stay at the same place next year.. maybe for a little longer! It was clean, refreshing, peaceful, instructions were clear, and directions were detailed and easy to follow. We enjoyed it immensely! Very comfortable and nice place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Spencer & Amy’s place. Great communication prior to and during our stay. Very quiet, peaceful location. It was in close proximity to all of our activities around the area. Everything was clearly marked and easy to find in the cabin. Felt like home. We would definitely visit again!

Richard was a wonderful host. He was super accommodating to our needs, the house was clean, the beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. I would stay again in a heartbeat.

I have nothing but positive feedback on Jill's property. It exceeded our expectations in every category. We were looking for a place close to my nephew's house in Cornelia while also giving us some privacy. We loved being on the farm! The apartment had excellent privacy while the peacefulness and spaciousness of the property set the mood. There were lots of well thought out little surprises such as welcome snacks and drinks. Instructions on how to work things in the unit were very helpful. We enjoyed the cabinet of curiosities. Finally, having space for our two dogs plus a fully fenced front yard for them to roam was awesome. Getting to feed the goats, donkey and horses just put things over the top. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a super clean lodging close to Cornelia.

Really good place, we really enjoyed and my wife loved it. 100% recommended It has everything that you need and more
