First class service -breathtaking views!!!

Derrick is a wonderful host! He thinks of everything! We decided on a quick birthday trip and I’m so glad we selected View Finder! When we arrived Derrick had bottle of sparkling wine, a lovely local candle and a hand written happy birthday note!!! I certainly wasn’t expecting that! The home is love, modern rustic decor, comfy beds, soft towels, moisturizing soap, well appointed kitchen…you basically have everything you need! Thanks for a lovely stay!!

Heavenly escape

Why an absolutely beautiful experience. The cabin is truly done with an expert eye. Furnishings - bedding- flooring all so beautiful. The porch drinking morning coffe and evening cocktails let’s me know I definitely need to downsize and “ seize the moment”. Kudos to the owners

Perfect getaway!

I enjoyed every minute of being there! The views are beautiful, the cabin is super cozy and perfect. Mr. Derrick takes his time to make your stay extra special with welcome notes and special treats. I was fortunate to spend thanksgiving there and was greeted with food, desert, wine and extra goodies. So very thankful for his special attention! By far one of my best experiences with VRBO!

Perfection!!

We have rented properties both domestically and internationally and have been pleased with many. But never have we encountered one that so far exceeded our expectations that it is difficult to find enough superlatives to describe it. The cabin was beautiful, both inside and out, with an attention to detail that provided for every possible need we could have had. The views were breathtaking, instilling a sense of solitude and serenity that stirs the soul. The host, Derrick, was incredibly responsive and welcoming. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! But we will be back! Thank you, Derrick and Bryan.

Beautiful cabin in perfect location. We felt welcome and indulged from the moment we arrived. The cabin was super comfortable and everything we needed was provided. Highlights include the hot tub, hiking from the cabin, and the sunsets and star gazing on the upper deck.

Absolutely Perfect in Every Way

Oh my goodness, Derrick was the absolute perfect host and the cabin was wonderful. Everything was super clean and the beds and pillows were very nice and very comfortable. The view from the deck was lovely where we ate breakfast. The hot tub was neat and we even used the firepit to make s'mores! It was quiet, but still close to the town of Blue Ridge. We hiked on the trail near the cabin as well. It was all amazing and we will be back again next year!

We really loved our stay, everything was exactly as described in the listing. The owners just made everything so easy!! Super clean, perfectly organized, and owners were on call with any questions. We were close to restaurants and walking as well as orchard farms. The hottub and firepit were wonderful bonuses that we really enjoyed using. We would definitely rent from here again

Awesome Cabin

From the moment we drove up, it was apparent we made the right decision. Derrick has created a perfect oasis with this cabin in the woods. The place was immaculate! Every amenity one could wish for in a rental was provided. We accomplished everything on his suggestions of “things to do in and around Blue Ridge”, but the first one on his list was the best....do nothing! Watching the sunset from the view deck, relaxing in the hot tub, building a fire in the cozy fire pit or cooking up a great meal to dine alfresco on the front porch we’re just a few of the things we enjoyed during our week-long stay. Derrick is the perfect host, from his personal touches to his great communication skills. We hope to visit again and stay longer the next time!

All the 5-star reviews are to be believed! Stunning views, awesome location, super clean and great amenities. Above and beyond all that, Derrick was simply phenomenal. Great communication, directions, suggestions, flowers, wine and a birthday card for my wife's birthday, etc, etc. Wow.

Quiet secluded mountain get-away

I don't get to visit with my my daughter much since the pandemic began. The View Finder cabin was a perfect place for a mother-daughter weekend. I booked this cabin because of the views (and the rave reviews) and was not disappointed. Host, Derrick, made accessing the cabin easy and left a lovely welcome note and gift. We cooked in all weekend - kitchen was well equipped. The cabin was clean and thoughtfully decorated. The beds were wonderful!! Beautiful views from the front porch and the upper deck and there is a cute private lower deck for the hot tub which we enjoyed after a day of hiking. I highly recommend this cabin rental - you won't regret it...

About the host

Hosted by Derrick Morris

Host profile image
Since visiting Blue Ridge in 2012, we were quickly drawn to the kind people and natural beauty of this quiet little town. We now live just south of Blue Ridge, and couldn't be happier with our decision. We have a strong appreciation for wildlife, nature, the environment, good food and friendly people.

Why they chose this property

The multiple outdoor entertaining areas, panoramic views, and privacy found at View Finder allow us to enjoy the best that the North Georgia Mountains have to offer. While it's proximity to downtown gives us the opportunity to enjoy fine dining, shopping and many outdoor adventures (kayaking, boating, swimming, fishing, list goes on and on).

What makes this property unique

Viewfinder is located on a quiet beautiful mountain on 1.6 acres. Down the hill is a small stream, surrounded by beautiful Hemlocks. Just a short walk away is the Benton MacKaye trail, a meadow overlooking a lake and the mountains, Laurel Creek with small waterfalls, and a good amount of wildlife. The many old growth Hemlocks, Oak trees and Pines made this a perfect place for us to get away.
