Quiet Forest Cabin!

My husband and I celebrated our Anniversary at the cabin. It was a wonderful experience, cozy and had everything we needed for a vacation. We loved sitting on the Adirondack chairs next to the fire pit in the evenings!

Stayed 6 nights for honeymoon

Overall we really enjoyed the stay. Loved our time in the hot tub and porch swing. Very close to town and in close driving range to many activities. We were a lot closer to neighbors than I’d liked, but we will definitely stay again.

Nice Stay

It was a good stay but property does not seem to be monitored closely but only minor things like bath clothes and detergents for dishes and clothing. TV and furniture need updating. Outside sitting area was excellent. Nice couple get away for two or three nights

Great Place to Stay

Overall it was very nice and enjoyable. Some of the lighting/electrical switches were confusing, but we figured it out. We were not able to turn on the lights on the level with the hot tub, so we’re not sure if they were broken or not. Entering and exiting the parking area was a little dangerous/sketchy, but we made it work in a sedan. Otherwise, was a very nice place and good experience!

Fixed feelings

It was a very nice place, but we had some difficulties finding it as the gps didn’t bring us to the right cabin and we couldn’t get ahold of anyone to help until the morning so we had to get a motel for the night. Rough start that kinda dampened the mood for the week. But the cabin was very nice once we settled in. Hot tub needed to be a bit cleaner, but overall stay was nice and relaxing

Cozy cabin

The cabin is perfect for a couple- very cozy. We loved the hot tub. It rained quite a bit while we were there but we did get to sit out back and enjoy the woods a short time. The only issue we had was that the cabin had not been cleaned when we checked in. The owner was very easy to get in touch with and someone came to clean relatively quickly. We didn't get settled in the cabin until almost 7:30 pm so that was disappointing. However, we didn't let it spoil our vacation.

Beautiful cabin, secluded but close to Blue Ridge

The cabin and surrounding areas were beautiful! We loved the surrounding forest and nature, and enjoyed being close to downtown Blue Ridge. I would advise that guests come prepared. We were told that some firewood would be provided, but there was none. Luckily the nearby Ingles was well stocked! Additionally, there were only a few paper towels supplied and no lighter or matched that we could find. Other than that, we definitely enjoyed our stay.

Bad news then Good news.

Bad News: I never got the check in directions , so when I got there I had to call VRBO and we called the property owner 4X . In the property owners defense it was 12 midnight. Finally he email back and we got in. Good News: everything was clean and well maintained. The beds were soft and relaxing. We felt right at home. The hot tub was a great touch! I would stay again.

Horrible experience

The heat stopped working Friday night and i called then they sent someone to the wrong cabin to check it out then finally they came late Saturday night and also said to use the fireplace and when we did it was not venting out and smoked the whole cabin up we could barely breathe in the middle of the night I had to get up and put the fire out and open the doors to air the place out,so I have never in my life been dissatisfied with a place in my life,and on top of that there were pictures of a man all over the place and what seem to be ashes in one bedroom

Perfect Weekend Getaway

Perfect weekend getaway for my husband and I. We went the first weekend in February and I was a little worried about it snowing / icing while we were there. There were snow flurries the first night we stayed and it was so beautiful to see the cabin covered with a dusting of snow! We really enjoyed our stay and loved that the cabin was in between Blue Ridge and Ellijay. Can't wait for our next stay.
