The cabin is nice and is generally comfortable. I visited N. Ga in the middle of the winter. The cabin had been winterized and it took 2 hours for the cabin to become reasonably warm. The cabin is nicely furnished and comes very well stocked with the basics for a weekend away. Shopping is available nearby and Blue Ridge is a beatiful area. The owner was very pleasant to deal with. I hope this helps you decide to rent this cabin, when you are visiting this beautiful part of the country. I would not hesitate to recommend it to you.

This cabin was lovely! Mostly secluded, extremely clean and well built. The hot tub works wonderfully and the screened in porch is a very nice touch. Will definitely be staying here again in the future!

What an awesome cabin in the woods! My family and I had a wonderful time. Cabin was fully stocked, comfortable and very clean. The zip line, hammock, kid swing, porch swing, hot tub and foosball table were a hit with our kids. Fireplace and TV were great, comfy bedding, porch and outside table were nice too. I highly recommend this cabin for families with small children or anyone else looking for rest and relaxation! Great location and beautiful sunset off the back porch!!!! Five stars plus! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your "Simple Life" experience!

Keith and I were married Dec 16, 2010 & spent the 16th-19th at "A Simple Life". The cabin was AMAZING!! Everything you could ever imagine for a weekend get away from two, or a family vacation. The cabin was clean, well stocked (towels, linens, pillows, extra cover), the hot tub was perfect, we enjoyed dinner on the grill one night & spent each night in front of the fireplace. Thank you Bruce & Ali for a perfect honeymoon at a GREAT price, Keith and I will be returning with the family.

Ali & I came here for peace and sweet fellowship. I have loved sitting in my PJ's and talking & sharing while the weather outside was in the teens. I loved going to the drive-in movies in the snow and wrapped in blankets and layers of clothes laughing at chick flicks. This has been so sweet, fun, and safe. I feel our friendship has taken a deeper and more meaningful turn. Thank you for sharing this special place with me.

Great family time and reconnect after my deployment. Tyler (our 3 yr old) enjoyed the walks, zip line, and especially the swing. Madelyn (our 10 month old) enjoyed cruising the floors. My wife and I enjoyed the family time again! We had a great lunch at Mercier Apple Orchard and had a great Apple Fritter. We also drove by Brasstown Bald and played in the snow. We then drove by Vogel State Park which looks like it would be great fun in warmer weather. Drove through beautiful but curvy 180/60/Morganton (bring camera and motion sickness pills!). I will definitely be back with my fly rod.. some great rivers/creeks in that area. Unfortunately all good things must come to an end. Thank you so much for a great family vacation.

It's my last day here, and I'm getting ready to leave. Thank you for providing such a comfortable, peaceful setting. I cam here by myself to find just the right environment to relax and to reflect, and this was perfect. I stopped at a grocery store on my way in and stocked up on good food, and have since spent my time cooking, reading, hiking, soaking in the hot tub, and journaling. I also did some yoga stretches in front of the fireplace. The only contact that I had was with Linda Rice at Blue Ridge Mountain Outfitters. She was very friendly and helpful and full of information about hiking in the area. I ended up doing the Flat Creek Loop Trail in the Aska Trails Area (Blue Ridge) and the Gahuti Trail in Fort Mountain State Park (Chatsworth). Both were well maintained and beautiful. I'm planning on stopping at Carter's Lake on my way out of town. Best wishes to your family for the New Year and thanks again for all the thoughtfulness you have taken in making your home so comfortable for guests.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving in your home! We hiked, rode horses, swang on the tree swing, and enjoyed the "light up Blue Ridge" activities. Our 6 year old loved seeing Santa Claus arrive by train! Our days ended with a visit to the hot tub!

Your cabin is so warm and inviting. We enjoyed the quiet! Having our devotions on your rocking chairs was wonderful. We also enjoyed hiking in the Cherokee National Forest (20 min away in TN) and visiting Mercier Orchards :) We will definitely tell our co-workers and friends how much we enjoyed our stay.
