SUMMER SPECIAL! June/July/August 3 nights for the price of 2! Text:334-750-9666

Tucked into the woods, off the beaten path--a perfect place to chill! All the amenities, including wifi, cable, washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave and gas grill. 10 miles from Blue Ridge, GA. 3 miles from Ocoee River and whitewater rafting. Built by my son, it is not fancy, but very comfortable. A small creek runs through the property, with a firepit/sitting area nearby. One bed, one bath. No shower. Bed and bath are in the loft. New queen-sized bed with Beauty Rest mattress. A great retreat for couples, or for a writer/artist. Go hiking, biking, rafting, shopping, antiquing, fishing, sightseeing or to fairs and festivals during the day, then retreat to the peace and quiet of the rain forest! (Comfortable sofas accommodate 2 more, if needed.)
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.

Cozy cabin

Very clean and up to date loft style cabin. It was easy to find and no problem getting in. A convenient location to all the trails, river and town too! I definitely recommend Wildwater rafting and make sure and stop by Rum Cake Lady for the most delicious food.

Perfect getaway with babbling creek.

We stayed a Thursday- Sunday. Kitchen 10 stars- there was everything you needed and more- stove gas and top of the line. The fire pit surrounded by ferns and bordered by a babbling creek was just what we needed. Placed the chairs in creek and watched the minnows and listened to the frogs. 1920s claw foot tub- icing on the cake. Out of all the places we’ve stayed this is our favorite. We will be back.

Perfect quiet getaway

This cabin was exactly what we were looking for. And the weather was perfect. With such a busy schedule I was looking to get away with my dogs for some mommy. fur baby time. We were actually there during the coldest time (lowest temp was 6 degrees). The propane fire place gave the cabin the perfect feel and heated the cabin amazingly. Shelia was an amazing host with communicating with me about the bad weather that was gonna happen during my stay and was so kind to offer to reschedule but I declined and still went (best choice). She checked on us daily which meant a lot to me. Definitely can’t wait to return.

In a neighborhood subdivision not secluded

Did not meet our location expectations. The property is located in a neighborhood, subdivision. A house next door with junk cars, etc in the yard. Other homes all around. The property also has a very small cottage for sleeping which sits facing the “cabin.” There is a ring camera that sits on that cottage facing the “cabin.” It was very evident that the owner/host watches that camera became within five minutes of our arrival, she texted to say to let her know if we needed anything. Inside of the property felt more like the host/owner’s home. It gave the impression that she left for the week so we could rent the property. Tons of personal items, including food in a pantry leaving no where to put our dry goods. Family photos everywhere; made us feel very uncomfortable.Dishwasher is very old and dishes must be scrubbed before they are placed in the dishwasher. It doesn’t state that online. That info is not known until it is stated on a note on the refrigerator. There are notes displayed throughout the “cabin” in items that resemble picture frames. None of the outdoor deck lighting was working. Not one light switch in the house made them work. The gas grill out on the deck is connected to the main gas line. There are very confusing instructions on the refrigerator with a diagram to turn on the gas for the grill. The gas regulator is upside down on the grill compared to the diagram. The grill and heater stove were on timers. Very difficult instructions to change.

Sweet, cozy cabin

This little cabin is so cozy, with lots of personal touches that show it is well-loved. It's close to town but tucked away enough to feel like you're off by yourselves. Sheila was quick to respond snd gave great directions; check-in was easy! We would definitely stay here again.

Home away from home!

We figured it out and we’ve been coming to Fernbank for 10 years! It’s always just what we need in every way, close to all the things we enjoy: riverside shops and restaurants in Mccaysville, Crane Creek Vinyards in Young Harris, Brasstown Bald, Helen, etc. But the cabin itself is a favorite- relaxing and refreshing. We love the fire pit by the creek!Thanjs again for a wonderful visit!

Great spot for a getaway

My husband and I had a much needed getaway in this cozy little cabin. We were also able to bring our dog, Baxter! The clawfoot tub was amazing and the bed was very comfortable. Everyone was able to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. We would definitely recommend and we will be back again ourselves!

Relaxing

The cabin was a great place to stay and relax. We enjoyed building a fire down by a little stream of water and just enjoying the sounds of the wildlife....birds singing and squirrels scampering about. The cabin was stocked with more than we imagined regarding the ability to cook our own meals. We enjoyed eating breakfast at the cabin and then hitting the road for daily adventures. Highly recommend this cabin!

Perfect couples retreat

We had a lovely time at Sheila's cabin. The cabin is very nice! The location is secluded, in a nice neighborhood, and Sheila is a great host. She was communicative and accomadating. We thoroughly enjoyed hanging out on the porch and by the fire pit. We would definitely book another stay.

Wonderful cabin in the Woods

Me and my children had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It was clean, cozy had anything really that we needed. We could’ve asked for a better cabin and host. The only negative aspect was the neighbor that was close had three dogs that ran in front of my car every time we passed their house.
