THE CHRISTMAS TREE IS UP! Have a cozy cabin Christmas!

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.)

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

Was way better than we expected

The area was great. There is a park close by and short drive to the mountains. It's a ghost town on Tuesday and Wednesday when the train isn't running so keep that in mind when you plan your stay

Romantic Getaway

The cabin is cozy and tranquil and just a short drive to town. This was a long over due trip for just the twonof is. There is a lot to explore in McCaysville and Blue Ridge. Be sure to grab lunch at Pat's Country Kitchen. The food is amazing and the people are just as cool.

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.

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.

Cute

Cute place tucked away in wooded area. I think we were turned off by a rather rundown area of town we had to drive thru to get there , but that shouldn’t reflect on the home. Our stay was pleasant. It’s was clean and comfortable.

Perfectly cozy cabin

I came for a quick weekend getaway and was so glad to be able to find this cabin as I had a dog and also didn't want to spend too much for such a short trip. This cabin was perfect from location to how cozy it felt. I came in late in the evening and had a hard time locating the cabin in the dark but the owner was super helpful and called me the moment I texted. Will definitely keep it in mind if I return to the area in the future.

cozy and private

It is somewhat remote but private and I slept so well. No light pollution. Neighbors are not far so I felt safe. I did not use the outdoor area much. I brought a portable fence for my dog, so I was able to close the deck. Easy no fuss gas furnace made the cooler weekend very cozy inside (second week of October) A lot of books. Owner is friendly and responsive.

If you like peace and quiet, perfect setting in the woods, completely stocked and very clean cottage with everything that you can think of then you will love the stay at this place. Short drive to downtown McCaysville where there are restaurants galore (all within walking distance) some shopping, small grocery store and very friendly people. Sheila is an excellent host that is quick to respond to your every need. I recommend this place highly.
