Hi there! We’re Liz and John, and we’re so excited to share our cozy cabin, Hidden Hollow, with you. As a big family who loves to travel, we’ve stayed in short-term rentals all over the world, and those experiences inspired us to create one of our own. We know how important it is to arrive somewhere welcoming, and we take pride in making your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible.

Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, a family retreat, or just to recharge in nature, we hope Hidden Hollow feels like your home away from home. We also love sharing our favorite hiking trails, local spots, and hidden gems—so feel free to reach out anytime. Can’t wait to host you

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Blue Ridge, GA, for its breathtaking mountain views, peaceful surroundings, and charming downtown filled with unique shops and great food (our family’s favorite stop is Hucks General Store!).

What makes this property unique

Hidden Hollow is your perfect family escape in the Blue Ridge Mountains! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath cabin combines modern comfort with endless outdoor adventure. Spend your days fishing or kayaking on the private pond, exploring scenic trails, or letting the kids run free in the fresh mountain air.

For little ones (and the young at heart), the cabin is stocked with games and activities to keep everyone entertained. Parents can relax knowing the kids are having fun—whether indoors or out—while they unwind by the firepit, savor a barbecue, or enjoy peaceful moments by the water.

Inside, you’ll find a newly updated kitchen, cozy living spaces, and inviting bedrooms that make it easy to recharge after a full day. Hidden Hollow isn’t just a getaway—it’s a place where kids laugh, parents relax, and families make memories together.
