We absolutely loved the cabin, the front porch was fantastic for coffee in the mornings. the area was fairly quiet. The host were fantastic with communication
Great private location which conveniently near the charming town of Blairsville.
A very comfortable house with everything you need to relax after a day out exploring. The deck is a plus to enjoy morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening . Quiet neighborhood where I enjoyed a morning walk. Host Robin was very accommodating when I made a request to check in before 4 pm. I hope to return next time I am in Blairsville.
We had a great stay, and the host was excellent. She went over and above to accommodate our needs. Our dogs loved the fenced area attached to the front porch! The deer even came by to tell us hello!
We were very pleased with the Redbird Retreat. Nice neighborhood fairly quiet (neighbors have dogs), the house was clean and comfortable. Check in and out was very easy. We would love to come back when we can stay longer.
We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed the comfort & coziness of this house! A big pet peeve in VRBOs for us is when the furniture is just not comfortable- happy to say that the couch and recliner were both great! After touring around all day it was great to come home to Redbird Retreat. We also really appreciated the small fenced dog area. We would definitely stay there again!

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay!! Please come see us again!
We had a great time here. The place was exactly as described if not a little better. Robin was great to work with and was able to get us in at the last minute. Definitely would stay again.
The property was very easy to find! Everything was exceptionally clean and cozy. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was nicely appointed. Robin (the owner) was very kind and responsive to any questions I had. Would absolutely stay there again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Redbird Retreat. Perfect for a weekend getaway for us and our 2 small dogs -the fenced yard area was a great convenience. Robin was wonderful when we had a couple of small requests. Thank you so much!

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
There was a strong odor of mildew and the house was damp inside. Bedding had an odor. Pillows were flat. Paint is chipped off the walls. Things seemed worn out and old, shabby but not in a chic way.The owner was responsive to us and we appreciated her service. But I can't recommend this place.

About the host
Hosted by Robin Wilson or James Watson
We both live and work in the Atlanta area and have for many years. Each of us own our own "retreat" in Blairsville and spend many weekends and holidays. Through the years our family and friends have grown to love the area as much as we do. When the opportunity came up, we bought Redbird Retreat so we can now share the loveliness of the area with everyone. We hope you love it as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
There are so many things to see and do in the North GA Mountains and all year round. Lots of festivals and events, beautiful lakes, parks and waterfalls. A lot of walking trails, wonderful places to eat and close to the new Harrah Casino in Murphy, NC. Redbird Retreat is close to it all!
