My husband and I stayed at “Cherokee Dreamers Den” and had the joy of seeing the beautiful North Georgia Mountains for an entire week! We take a summer family trip with our children, then a much calmer fall trip to the mountains to keep our marriage alive, young and fresh. We get so busy these days that we don’t make time for each other and this allows us to pause life and make time for US.
So in this process, we look for places that are higher up on the mountain with a view, secluded and less trafficked, and Fall Foliage peak.
Initially I started with needing to contact the owner because we pack everything prior to coming from belongings to groceries to firewood. We couldn’t figure out if the fireplace was gas or wood burning (last year we carried wood for a gas fireplace) I inquired and the owner responded very quickly (huge A+ because I am a “know now kind of person”) *it is a wood burning fireplace and they are so sweet to provide you with some starter logs.
This year we timed it perfect! We stayed 11/1-11/7 and the colors were absolutely beautiful! We saw the trees change colors our entire stay from start to finish. (Usually we hit the 2nd week and miss the bright colors) We saw a mature wild turkey, several deer, and feel like we heard a bear (but that one’s unknown) The view is outstanding, wish some of the trees were trimmed down some where you could see a touch wider view but again the view is perfect. Our weather was great. Cool/dry, rained one day. Had fog one day but the way it laid on the mountains looked really cool!
The cabin was smaller than what we have stayed at in the past but absolutely the perfect size for what we needed plus room if you plan to have guests! It was so clean and very comfortable. We noticed a little more traffic than we usually get when we stay in the mountains but it’s not bad.
Great location, there’s an outside fire pit and a hot tub (we didn’t utilize because I’m still recovering from surgery) kitchen was stocked which was nice because I forgot butter so having Pam was a great substitute, bathrooms had heaters which I loved because I don’t like being cold after showers, the game room downstairs was fun.
Only thing I would say is they have nice tv’s, however it would be nice if they were smart tv’s so guests could log into their services like Redbox or Netflix ect and watch their shows/a movie. We learned there is not a lot on tv during the week/late and despise commercials. Great stay overall!
