Perfect cabin on Lake Blue Ridge. We booked last minute to get away from construction at our home for the weekend. The host, Shane, was super helpful and the cabin was great! Thank you again.

One of our favorite lake trips ever the area is beautiful. The lake is clean. The rental was perfect clean great location. They went over and above and put in a DOK so our dogs could get out which is rare to find at Blue Ridge. It was only about 20 minutes from town, which was perfect quiet location with government land across couldn’t have asked for better. We can’t wait to go back.

Our family had an absolute blast at this cabin! The view is amazing right off the bat, and we spent a ton of time just hanging out on the dock swimming, kayaking, and tubing. The doggy dock was a hit too. The location was perfect for us—close enough to Blue Ridge for great dining, but right by all the outdoor stuff we wanted to do. We fit in a bunch of outdoor activities: horseback riding, UTV trails, and waterfall hiking. We also hit up the nearby marina, which had pontoon rentals and a restaurant with an awesome view. Back at the house, the kids stayed busy with ping pong and games, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook and grill out. We even fit in two nights of s'mores! 10/10 stay. The owner was super responsive and accommodating. We really loved our time here! Our family definitely wants to come back.

Thank you for the five (5) star review Christopher and we look forward to seeing y'all very soon!
Honestly, can’t say anything other than perfect.From the beginning, the communication with the host was excellent and remained so throughout.The property is amazing! We spent most of our time down on the dock enjoying the water, or the firepit on the mid-level, or the various fun ‘nooks’ to sit and relax around the house. The exterior is beautiful and the interior was clean and spacious. Plenty of room for our party of five and prefect for nights relaxing, or an epic ping pong tournament. We rented a jet ski on one of our days and the dock was a perfect launching point. We went into Blue Ridge every day for lunch or dinner, along with mini golf, hiking excursions etc. This was an absolute 10 of 10 stay!!

Absolutely gorgeous and lived up to all pictures and descriptions.Spotless - never seen such a well maintained grill, which may seem trivial but can be a good indicator of the owner and cleaning service.

Had a fantastic time! House, dock, and outdoor fire pit were all wonderful and as described. Great property and would definitely return. Only gripe was that there were no filters for the coffee machine but we ran up to dollar general to pick some up (and left them for the next guest).

Very comfortable, well maintained house on a very pretty (and clean) lake. Our multigenerational family had the best time. Everyone commented on the comfort of the beds and furniture and all agreed we want to return next year. We loved it!
We had a great weekend at this perfect cabin on the lake! The place was perfect and the views were incredible. Shane was very hospitable and responsive. We can't wait to come back!
