Very nice cabin for a larger family to stay in. King size beds in 3 rooms, queen bunk beds and normal bunk beds in the last. Pool table,hot tub and screened in porch were very handy during the nights. Would definitely stay again!

You are absolutely correct that this cabin is a great choice for a large family or for a few couples. There is no shortage of things to do at this Blue Ridge mountain cabin whether you choose to lounge on the plush sofa and catch the weekend football game, sharing the days adventures while making S'mores by the fire pit or relaxing in the hot tub, adults and children of all ages will enjoy! Definitely come back and see us again in the New Year. Take care.

Very nice stay!
The cabin is lovely, set in a nice neighborhood. Kitchen was well stocked, but lots of chips on coffee mugs and quite a few of the melamine plates are showing wear and tear. I’m assuming the dishwasher takes it toll on the plates. The wonderful coffee maker takes the cone filters.
It’s important to know that the steps going to the lower level are pretty steep. My husband and I took the king bedroom down there because we didn’t want the couples we were traveling with, who had some foot/leg issues, to risk a fall on the steps. Also, the king bedroom in the downstairs does not have a closet in the room. A simple fix would be for the home owner to run a tension rod (like in a shower) across a corner of the room, where it’s recessed. The 2 master suites upstairs, are very nice and have ample closet space. The screened in porch on the main level was wonderful for starting and ending our day. Overall, it was a very good experience. Not too far from town or grocery stores. I loved walking on the street in the evening. There are a lot of hills to walk up, so be prepared. We would stay here again!

Family Fun
We loved our stay at the Retreat. Plenty of space with three king size bedrooms which was perfect for our family. The location is ideal being only minutes from Blue Ridge and other attractions. We all especially enjoyed the huge screened porch and the pool table.

Great mountain house
This is a great house! Beautiful location in the mountains, bedrooms and bathrooms were really nice. We comfortably fit 2 families. I would give a 5 if: kitchen utensils and dishes are updated (coffee mugs had chips in them) and some basics were provided like hand soap in the bathrooms and more than one roll of toilet paper, paper towels, and laundry detergent. I would definitely recommend the house though!

Great cabin in the mountains!
Near Blue Ridge Georgia, this cabin is close to town but far enough to avoid the traffic.
It has great views and a hot jacuzzi, perfect for the cool evenings.
We also loved the pool table, XBox system, and the overall scenery.
We have been several times to this cabin with our kids and grandkids, we love it, highly recommended.

Beautiful cabin
This was a great cabin for a big group. Our college daughter and her friends loved having the downstairs bunk room with the poool table and large screen tv. Looks just as nice as the pictures.
