You are looking for a cabin for rent in Georgia and probably will have to make a decision on the cabin without ever seeing the property.

To help you with your choice, here are some important things to keep in mind.

The North Georgia Mountains are full of beautiful cabins. Some are perched high up on mountains with great views, others are right on a lake, river or creek. And there is one out there just right for you.

First you need to decide what's important to you: How many people are joining you on your week-end or week? A large number can make a large luxury cabin with all the bells and whistles very affordable. Some cabins charge extra for additional occupants. Others don't. You can find cabins that sleep 12 for a flat rate.

Are you more interested in a nice view or some space where you can play, fish, kayak or boat? Some cabins are so remote that there is not much to do around them. Others are located on large tracts with river frontage or right on a lake. Are there any hiking or biking trails near by or on the property?

Is the cabin pet friendly? Is it far from any road and safe for your pets to run around? Some cabins will not accept pets or charge extra for them. Others will welcome them.

Is there a fireplace, hot tub, jaccuzzi , pool table, grill?

Most cabins will charge a cleaning fee. The fee can vary based on the number of occupants and the size of the cabin. Cleaning fees are non refundable but the deposits are as long you don't break or damage anything.

Do they have age requirements? Some cabins do not rent to young people unless an older adult is present and responsible. They are trying to protect themselves from rowdy college crowds.
