5 Star!
Great place to stay to hike Benton Falls, raft the Ocoee River, and Zip line! Only an hour away from Chattanooga to see Ruby Falls and Rock City!

I stayed in Simplicity with a group of four plus two hound dogs, and I could not be happier with our trip. This cabin is so relaxing and had everything we needed, from kitchen supplies to linens to games. The view out the back is beautiful, and the nearby town is too cute for words. Thanks for a great weekend!

My husband and I enjoyed our weekend trip to Blue Ridge. This cabin was in a great location and convenient enough to the town of Blue Ridge yet far enough away to feel like you are getting away from it all. We would love to come back!

We loved staying in this cabin! It was in a quiet location that allowed us to have a peaceful weekend away from the city, but it was really close to downtown Blue Ridge. We wish we could have stayed longer.

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights with our two dogs. The cabin is beautiful and peaceful. Bryans instructions to the cabin were easy to understand and we were only a 10-15 minute drive from all of the good shopping and restaurants in Blue Ridge. Wi-fi is our only recommendation for improvement, as service can be shaky in the area. Overall, had a great time and would stay again!

Bryan was very responsive prior to our stay and the cabin was much bigger than the pictures show. Great spot for a cozy weekend in the mountains.

The cabin is just as pictured--charming with comfy furniture. Great deck with beautiful view. We loved the pool table in the loft space! Perfect cabin for a family of four like ours. The cabin is at the end of a long gravel road, but we made it just fine without 4-wheel drive.

This house is simply wonderful if you really need to rest and disconnect from the outside world. It has incredible views of the mountains. A comfortable jacuzzi, good books, games, a kitchen sure a home to meet with family and enjoy.

Review #19480752 Dogwood Dream- Close To Blue Ridge And Ocoee River
Amazing! Great location with wonderful views!
My family and I stayed at the Dogwood Dream cabin for labor day weekend. Overall our stay was wonderful! Inside the cabin you have access to everything you could ever need; from games for the kids of all ages to extra comforters and blankets for those who just always seem to be cold to plenty of cookware to prepare big family meals. The owners seem to have thought of everything you and your family would need so that your stay is comfortable and worry free. Outside of the cabin you can enjoy romantic sunsets from the hot tub out on the patio and roasting marshmallows by the firepit. We especially enjoyed that you get the mountain views without any roads or noisy traffic obstructing the relaxing feel. Dogwood Dream cabin is just minutes from Blue Ridge Lake and downtown Blue Ridge restaurants and shopping. My family plans to make an annual escape to Dogwood Dream and we suggest that you and your family does too!

Better than advertised
Large rooms, decorated beautifully.
Kitchen with high end appliances and numerous small appliances.
Master bathroom with large claw foot tub was superb.
The outside porch areas were magnificent. Plenty of places to sit and relax and hear the sounds of the water from nearby creek. Enjoyed our time at the covered swing by the creek.
I will book this cabin again. Only one request to the owner - outside porch fans would be great!!!
Management company prompt to answer my questions and very friendly.

Sarah P gave this review of her stay at Phoenix Ridge- Bryan was a great host - communication was easy via the Mountain Escapes office phone. The house was WAY more than expected in size and beauty. I would definitely recommend it. Our only issue was in finding the home, the mailbox isnt marked with the house number but there was a ME sign to help us. Overall a great stay (just be sure to bring games and movies as cell service is hard to get!

Our trip from the Atlanta airport was delayed by a meltdown at the car rental agency when we had to wait over two hours to get a car and then, when finally we had one, it was FWD, not the AWD/4WD wed ordered. When we went to collect our SUV, one in our party spoke to a manager, said we were sad because we didnt get the SUV wed ordered and that wed not be able to make it up the road to the cabin we rented. Were a group of 64-to-72-year old camp friends of over 50 years whod planned this solar eclipse trip from Texas/CT to TN since we last saw each other in the winter. Well, the manager took pity on us and gave us an AWD Volvo. We were late to arrive at the cabin and, without going into too much detail, were led there by a local restaurateur who helped us open the gate--definitely bring a flashlight, headlamp preferred--and led us up the twisting, gravely hill. The Volvo climbed it effortlessly. But make no mistake, no matter how good you think you are at off-road driving, its unlikely youll climb that hill with front or rear wheel drive. Bryan, a consummate host, made this very clear in the reviews but let me tell you, once you get up there, you find a mountain paradise. Though we had just 3 days there, we made the most of it, enjoying the hot tub that looks over the mountains, cooking smores at the campfire, playing the banjo, singing, gazing, visiting and grilling on the porch. The cabin has just one bathroom and those who sleep upstairs must come outside, then enter the main cabin to access it. But hey, thats part of the charm and, besides, were old campers used to wooden outhouses. In fact, the women who slept upstairs had such deep sleeps we had to go awaken then each morning. Now dont get me wrong the bathroom was perfectly appointed and accommodated we five women perfectly. There were quaint decorations inside the cabin with plenty of bears, fish and moose in the motif. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils, dishes, pots and pans. We were all delighted with our eclipse sojourn in Copperhill and were so grateful we found this cabin. On another note, folks around here were so very friendly and helpful and there is so much to do from kayaking/tubing to hiking to driving country roads. The cabin, our host, Bryan, and the area were just spectacular!

Spent the eclipse weekend in this great off the beaten path cabin. Just what the doctor ordered! The road leading up is not as bad as I have read in other reviews - my Cadillac made it up with no problems. If you put the address into Waze it will take you right to it.

Review #18767745 Close to downtown Blue RidgeGA and the Ocoee River area
This cabin is secluded, peaceful, and has a covered porch that is hard to pull yourself away from.
We loved this property. The pictures dont do it justice. The owners/management team were super nice when I called with a couple of questions...they made me feel welcome and not troublesome or bothersome. Even made a trip out to show me something that I should have figured out myself. Good people. Really good, kind people. The cabin is right outside the Cherokee National forest. You have an amazing drive along the Ocoee and the cabin isnt far away. There is so much space to spread out, especially if you have children. Totally secluded, private, the covered porch is a dream, and easy to get to. You wont go wrong with this cabin. Its a tad nicer in person than the pictures seem to show. Detailed cabin, huge laundry room, great mattresses, excellent WiFi for all of us, keurig, and hot tub.

This cabin was budget and pet friendly and had an amazing view! The third bedroom located in the basement with only outside access.. The view really was awesome and there were bar stools to sit on at the "breakfast bar". The hot tub was clean and worked well. Overall, the cabin worked out OK for the group and Bryan was good to work with - he gave us a late check out and recommendations on hiking trails, etc. upon request.

Beautiful cabin and lovely scenic view. Location is great for visiting local scenery, we visited several beautiful waterfalls close by with nice hikes. The cabin is high in the hills and the road is not paved all the way up, I have a low driving Cadillac an SUV or truck would be more suited to the road up and down. We managed though and had a great stay.
