We loved our stay! We were happy to see that the pictures and description were accurate. We enjoyed the outdoor hot tub and fire pit, and the rooms were spacious. The property is located in a peaceful, serene setting, but close enough to local gems to explore and visit. We will be back again in the future.

Worked Perfectly for us.

The cabin and lot were very scenic, well maintained and clean. My family and grand kids really enjoyed the cabin and we had plenty of room for everyone. The location was excellent with easy access to all that Blairsville and Lake Nottely have to offer. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Cabin

We had a wonderful vacation at this location, it was clean and the owner was prompt in responding. Just be aware that the basement has two double bunkbeds only, the number of beds on the description can be misunderstood.

Blairsville cabin stay.

Brian was very easy to deal with. Cabin was cute and we had a good time with n Blairsville. Got stuck two times going up driveway. Should recommend 4x4 vehicle. Big issue was neighbors dogs never stopped barking. Which we ended up leaving three days early so we could get some sleep.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Nov 2023
Thank you for your review. I’m glad you enjoyed the cabin and Blairsville. Unfortunately, I have no control of a neighbor’s barking dogs. I have been up there often and that has never been a problem. Also, I recognize the driveway is steep but the house is in the mountains and my two wheel drive car makes it up the paved road and cement driveway with no issues. In light of your experience, I was able to extend a credit which I hope helped the overall situation.

The cabin was very nice. The driveway was a bit of a climb but not bad. There are a lot of stairs and steps to the different floors but if you don't have bad knees or elderly, they are fine. They are mostly carpeted and most of the floors are nice wood floors, a little squeaky but that's part of the charm. A beautiful refrigerator, now I want one for our home. :) we didn't use the hot tub, grill, stove, fireplace, washer and dryer nor the game area. We used 2 of the beds and the coffee pot. We really didn't spend much time at the cabin, mostly to sleep. All the furniture was very nice. We loved that we could sit in the living room and see most of the outside nature. The only issue we had, was we couldn't figure out how to turn the shower in the tub on. So we took tub baths. But the day we were leaving, when we were collecting our towels, one of us realized the shower button was under the opening of the tub faucet. So we learned something while we were there. :) we enjoyed our visit to Blairsville and we thank the owners for allowing us to rent their cabin. We would recommend this cabin.
