The cabin exceeded my expectations. Surrounded by trees and nature like being in the middle of a forest. A quick 5-10 minute drive to downtown Blue Ridge and the famous Mercier Apple Orchards. Cozy up by the gas fireplace or the outside fire pit. The bedrooms and bathrooms were super clean and comfortable. Would most definitely return to the wonderful cabin in the future.

It was a great home for a reunion with my old flight attendant roomates . We flew with Eastern Airlines.We have now stayed in touch for 54 years. Our early years were in San Juan Puerto Rico oceanfront so our stay in the woods was awesome ! Fire pit the last night was so good listening to deer walking through the woods . Blue Ridge and Ellijay had so much to offer ! Great shopping and our dinner at Toccoa restaurant on the river was so nice . Trout was amazing. Thank you . 5 star Host !

This was a great cabin for our mother daughter annual trip! We do a trip every year in either Ellijay or Blue Ridge and this cabin was the most well stocked one we've rented in all our 20 years! I always bring extra cooking supplies and other supplies we usually aren't provided but we didn't need any of it this trip! The decor was so fun and the metal Halloween pumpkin coach was so cute. Loved the rockers and the beautiful high top on the back porch. The bedding and livingroom throws were so comfy. Just great all around. Coming from flat Florida, the drive in was quite easy with only one hill to climb, so that right there means a lot! We had no problem even with the narrower road. Other drivers were very considerate to pull to their side so we all passed safely. Communication with Marla and Bill was great as well. We'd def rent A Sweet Retreat again!

This property is AMAZING!! The owners responded immediately with any questions we had. The decor was beautiful and fit the cabin perfectly. It was extremely clean and loved the privacy. The kitchen was perfect for making several meals. We loved the screened in porch area and also the outside downstairs with comfortable hanging chairs to enjoy the peacefulness. The short drive is easy into Blue Ridge. We can’t wait to come back and stay here again.

We have stayed at several properties in the Blue Ridge area. Sweet Retreat is at the top of the list of places we would recommend. Its cozy feel, proximity to Blue Ridge & the Aska adventure area can't be beat. We had a few special requests that Marla went out of her way to accommodate us. You can't go wrong booking this lovely vacation home.

we had an absolutely incredible honeymoon week here! check in was easy, communication was always timely, and the cabin itself was a dream. the kitchen is well stocked so we were able to cook most of our meals, the washer/ dryer was so nice to have, and the cabin had several thoughtful necessities in case we forgot anything from home. the “grass” part of the yard was the only thing we were slightly thrown off by, as it’s quite small and completely graveled so we had to explore a bit to find grass for the dog to run and stretch. this didn’t effect the quality of our stay at all, but was worth noting as a caution if you’re bringing a pup. overall we had a flawless stay and can’t wait to come back!
