Beautiful Cottage, Short Walk to Downtown! No Extra Management Fees

Limelight Cottage is a quaint 1943 downtown Blue Ridge cottage! Located on a quiet street, one block from the Black Sheep restaurant, it’s only a short walk to downtown’s shops, bars, restaurants and more! Conveniently located to other areas in the North Georgia mountains like Aska, Lake Blue Ridge, Blairsville, and McCaysville. Only a short drive to the Tri-State area, Horseshoe Bend Park, Toccoa River, Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Casino, and many orchards and wineries. So many fun activities to walk to: Escape Blue Ridge, The Art Center, Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, and much more! The home has been completely updated and renovated. Two master suites: a King bedroom with full bathroom (shower) and a Queen bedroom with full bathroom (tub/shower combo). Could potentially sleep additional kids in living area, if you bring your own air mattress or if someone wants to sleep on the sofa (not a pull out). Front porch offers a relaxing seating area to sit and talk while back patio has ample seating around the fire pit. Completely updated kitchen, including Keurig for coffee, so don't forget your pods! Enjoy the kitchen dining or eat in the sun room, overlooking the patio and backyard. Gas grill on back patio. Lots to see and do in the Blue Ridge Mountains!

I really liked this property. The location was the only drawback as there wasn't exactly a straightforward way to walk downtown on a sidewalk and there was a fair amount of light at night from the government building across the street. Overall though it wasn't bad at all location wise, and this is out of the owner's control. Also be prepared for a bit of a hill to walk up and down.It was well stocked with essentials, but the ice maker had some issues so we had to either buy ice or make some which wasn't ideal, but certainly not a dealbreaker. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms functional. The outside sitting are was quite nice and parking was a breeze. Parking alone is essential if you are going downtown or taking the train.The AC did run a little warm and the "house rules" book indicates to keep it so, but otherwise not a problem.In the end it was a great stay and I hope to be back. I would recommend it to others.

Loved Limelight Cottage

We loved everything about this cottage! The only problem we had was that our stay was too short. We were in town for a wedding and it was the perfect location. Short walk into town, the restaurants and shops. The cottage is very clean, welcoming and comfortable. We will be back for a longer stay. Thank you for hosting us!

Cute bungalow close to downtown. Walk to restaurants and shopping. The jail is across the street, however, it was not an issue. Our second time to stay here and we had a great time!

Blue Ridge Convenient Cottage

Cottage was two blocks from downtown Blue Ridge. We drove downtown because of steep walk to downtown. The cottage was very nice, peaceful. Downtown Blue Ridge is great for shopping, restaurants and the Scenic Blue Ridge train.

Limelight Delight

Limelight Cottage is a delightful retreat in the charming town of Blue Ridge. Just a five minute walk from the train depot, shops and restaurants, it provides a clean, modern and cozy home base for a relaxing escape. Well outfitted with amenities, you will not find a nicer location for your next adventure to north Georgia.

Quaint place with great location to Blue Ridge

Our stay here was absolutely great and we would recommend it. The unit is easy to find, clean, and has a well layed out floorplan. It is in walking distance to downtown Blue Ridge. We never used our car the entire weekend. If walking, know there are some steep but short roads down into BR from the unit. Host is responsive and a pleasure. Beds were comfy. A great place!

Blue Ridge Vacation after vacation

My wife and I were very impressed and pleased with the Limelight Cottage. We stay at VRBO properties quite often on our vacations now in retirement. We felt this property was one of, if not the best, we have stayed in. It was neat and clean and had everything we needed. Everything worked in the rental. The info in the cottage was very helpful and informative. They location was outstanding . We would definitely recommend this property and will stay here again.

Perfect stay!

Visiting Blue Ridge with old friends on a girlfriend getaway. This place was absolutely perfect. Great layout, wonderful kitchen, and for 3 women it was perfect with the two bedrooms each with their own bath. The third bath was an awesome addition! While it is true that it is a short walk to downtown, it is down a pretty steep hill. So going is no problem, but coming back you have to be prepared to walk up a pretty steep incline. We’re no spring chickens, so that was a little challenging. :) The only negative was that it was literally across the street from the jail. But I guess other than optics, that wasn’t really a negative because there were a lot of police cars parked directly across the street. So probably made the place very safe! All in all, a great stay and responsive hosts. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Tiffany Yancey

Host profile image
We currently live outside of Atlanta but our daughter and her family moved up this way about 5 years ago. We wanted to get something that would be convenient to visit with them but also somewhere we would enjoy coming, just the two of us. So, we went looking and bought this home in June after it was renovated by the seller. We were looking for a vacation rental for us to come and stay occasionally but also for others to enjoy. We were originally looking for a cabin, but when we came across this home, with its many conveniences, we decided to go for the downtown living atmosphere and we're so glad we did! The best of both worlds, being in the mountains but also the atmosphere of small city living and all it has to offer!

Why they chose this property

We've set this property up to be a simple getaway for both us and our guests to enjoy. Not too much frill, but a relaxing stay none-the-less. Its convenient location is great for walking or driving, everything is only a short distance away!

What makes this property unique

We love this home because of the cottage charm, with the barn door, the beams and the open floor plan. So much character in a small area! We decorated the bedrooms with unique themes, both classic and modern at the same time. The outside fire pit and the quiet street, it's so relaxing and a great getaway, yet so close to all the action!
