    rent a cabin in Helen, GA!

    - easy drive
    - beautiful town and scenery
    - budget friendly

    p.s. Make sure you get one with a hot tub on the deck that over looks the mountains

    If you've never been to Callaway Gardens it is a nice place for a short vacation close to home. There's not a lot in the way of provided entertainment, but if relaxation is the goal it's a great place. The golf is excellent as well as the fishing. You can rent a bike or take your own and there are tons of trails and paths to wander with some extraordinary flora and fawna. I would definately check into it, they have a website with more info.

    I think weve decided on Gulf Shores. We thought about a cabin but i live in dahlonega so its not really "getting away".
