About this property

WOW!!! Creek and Large stocked pond Waterfront Cabin in the National Forest

We have a no pet policy. Trout Run Cabin is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath real log cabin located on the banks of Fightingtown Creek, a protected trout steam. The cabin sleeps 6 comfortably. No pets, no smoking, no hot tub.

We are a family destination not a party location. It is very quiet here and we like it that way. If you like whimsy, you will love it here. The pictures tell the story.

At Trout Run Cabin you can take long walks back into the forest for miles or sit on the porch and read a book. How about sitting by the fire pit out back at night making s'mores while listening to the crystal clear water rushing by. The sounds of the forest are all around you. This is a very peaceful place. Lots of flat areas for the children to run and play. Bring their bikes and they can ride all day long.

No license needed to fish in the pond out front.

Inside you will find 2 premium king size beds: One in the master suite and the other in the loft suite. Also, there is a set of bunk beds in the bunk room. All beds have 1500 Egyptian cotton thread count sheets.

Come Relax and Re-energize.

Peaceful retreat

Absolutely wonderful place to stay!!! The home was as described, and the owner was very responsive and helpful. Our family of four enjoyed the stream and pond the most. We brought kayaks with us, so the kids enjoyed fishing from those and not just the banks. If you love the tranquil sound of a stream, this is the place to go! My kids were even able to tune in the stream. It wasn’t too deep or shallow. The neighbors are very friendly, and you really couldn’t ask for a better family style getaway! Kitchen was well stocked too which is important to our family because we don’t eat out much. I would recommend this place to anyone without hesitation!

Peaceful Family Getaway

This is the perfect cabin getaway nestled on the creek, quiet, and perfect distance from Blue Ridge so you are able to truly unplug. The family of geese were adorable and the deer were very much out and about so definitely caution to take your time going around those back roads. Gravel roads lead up to the cabin. We have a minivan so had to go pretty slow as there were some bigger dips in the road bit definitely manageable. On to the inside, everything you could possibly need minus groceries and toiletries, all there. 2 king beds in downstairs bedroom and in loft. Our favorite part of the house was the all seasons room where you could sit and just listen to the rolling creek. Now it's important to remember that this is very much in the woods and bugs are to be expected. Big tip is to make sure counters and sink stay clean from anything that could attract ants. Again, just comes with the territory. Definitely recommend thale stay whether it's a couples getaway or a family vacay. Awesome spot! Oh and big thanks to Ellen for checking on us after the twins accidentally called lol!

Lovely mountain retreat!

We LOVED this place and definitely plan to return! The property is gorgeous, the house is thoughtfully stocked, and the neighbors are so friendly and welcoming. The downstairs king bed is a bit lumpy and I wish we could bring our dog, but otherwise this place was perfect for us!

My family and I had a wonderful stay here! My boys were in the creek daily and when they weren’t tubing on the creek they were fishing in the lake. The cabin is the perfect size. There is everything you need and more!! We loved it.

Off Grid

If you want to unwind and get back to nature this is the place for you. It is a short drive into Blue Ridge - but to be honest just shop on your way and unplug. Loved our time and walks with Buddy the neighbor's dog he is a treat. We will be returning for sure.

Fantastic peaceful cabin

Our visit met and exceeded our expectations! Beds were super comfortable and loved the quiet location with the creek behind it by the fire pit. It is close enough to hiking trails, tubing down the river, visiting downtown Blue Ridge or just playing games or reading a book at the cabin. We would highly recommend this place! Buddy the dog made a daily appearance and met a few of the neighbors as well.

Great Spot Away from it all!

I took my kids (12 and 13) for a quick getaway from FL for spring break. We had a great time at this quaint cabin. The firepit and creek setup is just about perfection. We only left the cabin one day for a hike to the Amicalola Falls, but other than that, we just enjoyed relaxing in the quiet remote location.

Beautiful Stay

The cabin was very cozy and nice. The water on both sides of the cabin was really a big hit for my husband and myself, it was so easy to drive to other places(Ellijay, Blue Ridge etc,.) I definitely would recommend this cabin. The cabin was well stocked and had everything you.

A Great Place to Stay

The cabin and property is well maintained and well stocked with dishes, pots, pans etc. There was plenty of room available if there were additional guests so that everyone could "Spread out" and have personal space.

Cherry Log Cabin

The property was well-supplied and very clean. We tried to go fishing, but after not much luck, one of the neighbors said it was fished out. The creek was so nice to sit beside and we enjoyed the neighbor’s dog, Buddy. The only things that would’ve made our stay better, would’ve been a TV upstairs and a hot tub. We would definitely stay here again though and would recommend.

Couples getaway

We had an amazing stay at a beautifully located cabin at the perfect time of the season for the leaves to change. Had a great time in downtown Blue Ridge great places to eat and go antiquing. Relaxed by the fire pit next to the creek listening to the beautiful sounds of nature. Also had fun, relaxing while fishing had a couple of bites and caught one fish that we released back into the pond. Enjoyed playing with the neighbors dogs, especially buddy. Mountainside market is a delicious and convenient place up in the mountain to eat and do minimal shopping.

Great Place to Stay!

Our family had a wonderful vacation - we visited Mercier Orchard and Lily Pad Village in Blue Ridge one day, but other than that, we never left the cabin! Our 5 young children loved playing in and tubing down the creek over and over again, fishing in the pond, and the great hike up the waterfall. The cabin itself was beautiful, clean, well stocked, and the perfect family getaway. We hope to go back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Murray

Host profile image
Growing up in Florida, I have always taken summer vacations to the mountains because it is so different. I love the outdoors so it is a natural thing to love the cabin. For me and my wife, it is a dream come true. We found the perfect place in the perfect location. We have young children and wanted a place that we could let them run and play and not have to worry. We found it. This is one of those items on the bucket list that has been fulfilled. We hope that our guests enjoy the cabin as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I had always wanted a cabin in the mountains, on a stream, with a lot of flat area. In June of 2012, we found everything we had been looking for. One of the first things I noticed when I first visited the cabin was how quiet is it and all you can hear is the sound of the creek rushing by. It is a special place and we are just happy that we are able to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

Trout Run Cabin is such a relaxing place. It is so quiet here. You can just sit back, relax and enjoy the sounds of the forest. One of the best things is that you feel so removed from everything yet you are only 20 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. It is just an awesome place.
