What a great place, clean and peaceful. The fire pit and creek are nice to relax at and plenty of room for the kids to roam. 10/10.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so glad to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed your weekend stay just before Thanksgiving. It’s wonderful to know that the cozy cabin in the woods was perfect for your family and your little Aussie doodle. We appreciate your high recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back for another great stay! 😊🏡🐾🍂
We loved our weekend at Trailside Retreat; it was great for my wife & I, and our dogs! The cabin itself is the perfect size and the location is ideal: easy to get to, close to both Blue Ridge and Ellijay, and having the BMT literally across the stream was a wonderful bonus. Everything we needed was provided, and the cabin is very well organized and appointed. We'll definitely keep it in mind for next time!
