Lovely Cabin

This is a lovely location and beautiful scenery. The owners live in the property and are extremely accommodating. This was a quiet getaway for us and it did not disappoint. The weather was terrible but we enjoyed the quiet. Will definitely return to do some hiking around the property. Awesome place to stay.

Great place, great host, great experience

Britt and Donna have done a fantastic job turning their property into a great North Georgia get-a-way. We were visiting our son, who attends UNG, and the convenience to the College was perfect, while also experiencing the tranquility of the mountains and the Chestatee River.

Lovely cabin on the river, delightful extras!

Well kept and nicely landscaped secluded cabin, but still 10-12 min. to Dahlonega. Very clean with everything you need, including a continental breakfast, variety of coffees and creamers as well as a gift from the owners! Will definitely recommend to our friends and others!

Little Slice of Heaven

This is probably one of the cleanest places I have ever stayed. The amenities the property offers were wonderful. The welcome goodies were awesome. The property owners live on site but they gave us our privacy. The owners were wonderful people. We will be back.

Wonderful peaceful getaway!

Beautiful property as described. Outstanding host and hostess, aided by Ruby and Mildred, their dogs who checked in with us regularly! Way back in the foothills but close enough to town that it was convenient to get out. Wonderful walking trails on the property going right down to the river, though some trails are steep so recommend good hiking shoes and a walking stick. Absolutely loved the place!

New Years in N Georgia

We had an awesome experience at Blueberry Shoals!! Britt and Donna were absolutely wonderful hosts! I can’t say enough about them and their property. From a hearty welcome with gifts and snacks to breakfast, we couldn’t have asked for more. Property was located far enough from Dalonagah but close enough to enjoy. Amenities were awesome and we can’t wait to go back!!! Overall extremely impressed!!

Wonderful Experience!!

My husband and I had such an enjoyable and relaxing stay at Blueberry Shoals! The hosts were just superb! Little tour of the property by Britt and the friendly dogs. Very clean accommodations. The continental breakfast was so thoughtful and kind. Our little gift mugs were just adorable! We had fun doing a little site seeing at the Gold Museum then ran across a fudge shop which was a weakness for me. We enjoyed sitting out and just taking in nature and watching the flowing river. Definitely would do it all over again.

Great Day to be Alive!

Came to Dahlonega to see Darrel Scott at the Crimson Moon and hike. Blueberry Shoals is a the perfect place to stay. Close to town but a beautiful mountain side cabin. The hiking around the cabin was beautiful! The trail was lined with folkart and benches. The sound of the river and was as peaceful as it could be. Thank you Donna and Britt for your over the top hospitality!!!!

Lovely place in North Georgia!

We spent one night at Blueberry Shoals. We were in Dahlonega for a winery event. Our check in process was seamless and the owner communicated with us regarding arrival time and asked us what we might like for breakfast. The place was well equipped with some coffee and all the necessities for a light breakfast. We loved the bread that was left for us for some morning toast. Lovely location which is somewhat secluded. We would have wanted to walk around and explore a little but the weather did not cooperate. We would definitely stay here again when we are back in the area.

Blueberry Shoals is a gem!

Not only was Blueberry Shoals clean, well-appointed and cozy, it was nestled perfectly in a peaceful setting yet conveniently located to all Dahlonega has to offer! This guest home has everything you could want - great furnishings, anything you could need in the kitchen, AND fluffy towels! Step out onto the deck and surround yourself in nature; explore the property - there’s so much to see! Owners Britt and Donna were the most amazing hosts, responsive in every way and always willing to help or make a recommendation. We were treated to a tour of the property which was a gift in and of itself. They even share the family pets with you if you’re so inclined to give them a few belly rubs and pets! The hosts were gracious and generous - such a blessing! Highly recommend - if you’re thinking of staying an extra night, do it! You won’t be disappointed!
