I want you to know how much we enjoyed our stay last week. Not only is the view spectacular, but the cabin accommodations are perfect for a group of 5 couples who prefer private bath / bedrooms. The furnishings are beautiful and the entire house is well arranged. Our group of 5 retired couples usually rents a different place each October, but after visiting Monument Place, all want to return there next year.

| Frank, we would like to thank you for allowing us to stay at your house for our annual trip. I must say that the pictures on the web gives the house and the views no justice. Our group has been traveling annually throughout the Southeast for the past few years and I must say that this one rates in the top 3% of all. Thanks for everything and one day we will return. I would highly reccomend this place to friends and family who are seeking the ultimate relaxation getaway. |

| Frank, you made it so easy, and the house was fantastic. Great views, and lots of space for our dozen family members. We saw wild turkeys, deer, and it even snowed (10 min.) on Christmas day. We had a wonderful time. |

We had such a wonderful weekend at your beautiful home...it was perfect - only an hour from Atlanta, but it felt so far away. Enjyed the hot tub, fire pit, foosball, and pool table. Something for everyone. Perfect for a couples getaway with all of the big beds and each with their own bedroom. Thank you so much!!! |

Dear Frank, Tisha and Family,

On the last day of our retreat I once again look out over the mountains and praise God for every leaf, every color, every cloud. I pray that all who enter this place are able to see the amazing wonder of God in everything that surrounds you. I pray that you are here in the fall to see the changing of the leaves and that during your stay you take at least one morning and leave the comfort of your bed to watch the sun rise over the mountain tops. I think that I can speak for everyone in our group when I say this house has been a perfect place for a retreat, for it is easy to see God and his beauty everywhere, and around every corner.
Thank You!

Thanks, Frank and Trish. We received the deposit in the mail today.
We (and all our family members) really loved the house so much--the architectural design, the wood/stone choices and all the natural light, all work together to make the interior space so very pleasant and appealing. With so many of us there, we never felt crowded, and each little family unit has its own space and privacy, which was so nice. The kids could watch TV and play video games downstairs while the adults enjoyed the great room area. The deck and the view of the mountains was the coup de grace, and we all just wanted to be out soaking in the panorama as much as possible. After that month of 90s and 100s, having the wedding weekend of highs in the 70s on the mountain was pure heaven, and it made the wedding ceremony just perfect (though a bit breezy!).
The kitchen was wonderful and very well equipped overall. Overall, we thought it was just such a lovely house and we felt *very* much at home there. It made me want to look at property in the area and find or build a weekend place for us one day.
For future reference, in case you are asked by future guests who are planning a wedding, I wanted to let you know that the Party Tyme store in Jasper was very good and delivered tables, chairs, wedding arch, champagne glasses, and so on, to the house, and that we had good service from Deb's Bakery for a wonderful and relatively economical wedding cake and from Floral Pleasures for wedding flowers.

Wow! Being here has been such a spiritual awakening. This home captures the beauty of nature. As a family, we take vacations together once a year, and we have already established that this will be difficult to top. From every angle beautiful views, the house itself, is a masterpiece. We are just thankful for the opportunity to enjoy one of God's great wonders. God created beautiful things.
Be Blessed....

My wife and I were married at Monument Place in June 2007. The house and view were incredible! All our guests really enjoyed themselves and had nothing but good things to say about the home. Frank made sure the place looked great for our wedding and we appreciate all the extra work that he did. I encourage those who are looking to have a quaint, intimate wedding, to look into Monument Place.

We had a wonderful family vacation. Your home was perfect for our large group - very roomy and very comfortable! Thanks so much for sharing your home and for making it so special. We would love to come back someday Cathy, Bill and Ian Campbell Deland FL
Would recommend your home to anyone having a large group such as ours for a fun family reunion. Janice and Charle Sylvestor Orlando Fl
Would echo all of the family comments above. We had a great time. The size of our group was perfect for this home. Plenty of room for group activities and also plenty of room for getting away if you wanted solitude. Never had to leave the house to find activities to keep us entertained. View is awesome! Thank you so much for the use of your home. John, Terry, Jenny and Mindy Mulvidie Orlando Fl
It was a great and relaxing week! Plenty of room for us to "get away from each other" if we needed; but still comfortable for our large family. We loved it!

We stayed in your other house (Paramount Place vrbo number 31067) and fell in love there. This time we brought all of our kids (ages 26,19,17,15) and fell in love all over again. We actually functioned as a family here. No rushing - no cell phones, nothing but family fun. We all cooked together and sat down at the tables and ate together. Everything about this place is wonderful. The sunrise is unbelievable. The nights filled with laughter and love. We are rarely all together at one time. So this was perfect. We can't thank you enough!

A prayer for all who enter this place:
As you look across the landscape, may you come to know that the creator of this very mountain and every creature that dwells upon it created you as well. The painter of the sunrise and the clouds has a purpose and a plan for your life. As you enter nto fellowship with him you will receive wisdom in times of confusion, peace in time of turmoil, healing from affliction,, comfort in sorrow. He will give you beauty for ashes and joy for depression. May you seek his purpose in your life and find his grace in your very need. May you experience the reality of His presence as we have during our stay in this house.

The view was outstanding. Amicalola Falls is just 5 minutes down the road and it only took us about an hour and a half to get to the house from Norcross, GA. It really is beautiful and your stay will be most enjoyable! Thanks Frank! |
