About this property

Cozy And Quiet Retreat!

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.)

It was great!
We got there and it was clean, there was plenty of silverware and extra blankets if we had wanted them, and we didn't have any problems with the property. I'd love to return for a longer stay next time!

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.

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Eckman

Host profile image
This is a small cabin built by my husband and son. Since both are now gone, we are especially grateful for the memories here. I am retired from a variety of careers, including university work, physician recruitment, and non-profit management. I served 10 years on my city council and eight years as county commissioner. My dog Winston accompanies me to the cabin and loves it there!

Why they chose this property

Great when you want to get away and just chill out. Read. Write. Watch SEC sports! Or take in local antiquing, hiking, rafting, tubing, etc. Not to mention some great eating.

What makes this property unique

Affordable! I want to make a trip to the mountains accessible because it has meant so much to my children and grandchildren to be able to go. While not fancy, it is very comfortable. An affordable option.
