Welcome to Acorns of Gold LLC, one of the best resources available for finding activities, attractions, restaurants, trails to hike, etc., in and around the Helen, GA, area.

Here we highlight four quality properties we rent on a short-term basis. Cozy Nook and Seclusion have been renting for six years now, and together they have some four hundred 5-star reviews by guests, with only a rare 4-star, giving each of them a 4.9+ overall rating. Gran’s House, Jay’s mother’s small home adjacent ours near Dublin, GA, has been renting well despite the dearth of tourism activity in our home area, and currently carries a 5.0 out of 5 rating. Time will tell how well our newest property, now named RidgeHaven, will do. All our properties are available on both Airbnb and Vrbo. Getting a site up and running with either of these agencies is a task that may take weeks, but in the case of RidgeHaven, it took six months! This job includes getting the property up to par, adding an endless string of expensive amenities, taking a pile of photos and doing a walk-through video of the place, this on top of revising all associated websites and preparing new instruction sheets of several kinds. Once the physical plant is in order, getting pricing, rules, rental agreement, directions, check-out procedures, and the like prepared and in PDF form so they’re usable—whew, I’m not sure I’ll be over the process for a long time! But it’s finally as ready as we can make it. For more information on this flagship property, check out the many facts, photos, and videos on this site or on Vrbo at property #2280468. Airbnb lists the property as well, and the best we can figure the number with them is #49571049.

Whichever agency you go through to rent one of our properties, you’ll find on their site all the information you need about availability, rental rates, and many details about the properties and the amenities found at each one.

And while you’re here on the Acorns of Gold site, you should notice that we keep adding restaurants, activities, waterfalls, hikes, wine country delights, and much, much more. Almost all areas covered here feature at least one video, and many have multiple videos. At last count the number of videos on this site was well over seventy, and pictures are likely several times that number. So look to your heart’s content. We hope you find what you’re looking for, and we thank you for visiting our site!
