Kick off your shoes and go Barefootin' in style! This "nearly new" cabin is located just 10 miles from downtown Hiawassee and is surrounded by sheltering pines, lofty hardwoods and lush ferns. The split floorplan of this rustic, yet modern, interior offers privacy for couples wishing to share accommodations yet maintain their own space, provided by the arrangement of each of the two queen bed suites being situated on opposing sides of the Living Room/Kitchen/Dining area. This floor plan is also wonderful for families, giving mom and dad a place to enjoy some quiet time alone. The cabin sleeps 4 comfortably with room for 2 more if you count the sleeper sofa in the living room. Ladies will also enjoy the convenience of magnifying mirrors and hair dryers in each bathroom.
Share a spectacular year-round mountain view from your rocker on the full-length deck, or snuggle by the fireplace and enjoy good times with family and friends.
Whether you're grilling out on the deck and dining out under the stars, or entertaining the group with a wonderful home-cooked meal prepared in the fully equipped island kitchen, you're sure to be prepared with everything you need. So come on up and enjoy some mountain luxury!

great weekend retreat

We enjoyed our relaxing weekend in this beautiful, quiet and extremely clean cabin near the top of a mountain. The view from the front porch of other mountains was great. It was magical sitting in the hot tub at night and seeing so many stars clearly. Driving up the mountain late one afternoon we saw four young deer. I had only used VRBO.com once before and I found the information provided for this cabin to be very accurate. The owner and local caretaker were so helpful. We would return again.

We had a great time staying in your Barefoor Retreat cabin. The layout is perfect for 2 couples, privacy for both with no steps to haul baggage up and down. The Christmas tree was a wonderful touch, and Tina (your manager) went out of her way by coming over to help "the boys" get the fireplace started. It was a GREAT New Year's holiday. We shall return!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

We stayed here this past weekend November 12th thru November 15th 2011. This is our 3rd time coming here. We always enjoy coming here. It is always a pleasure to talk with Marsha. She is always willing to work with us. The rates are priced right. The cabin is very clean and everything is in good working order. The view of the mountains is awsome. Highly recommend.

We stayed at Barefoot with another couple the last week of October. What a charming place it is! The cabin was exactly as described in the listing and the photos are totally accurate. We arrived after a long day on the road and were delighted to find that we could just put our things away and relax. Quite often we find that some cleaning has to be done before settling in. Countertops are sometimes sticky and dishes not really clean. This was not the case at Barefoot. Everything was impeccable! In addition, everything was well maintained and worked perfectly. The split floor plan was perfect for the two couples, and both suites were much more spacious than anticiapted, with large closets and ample storage. The living area was cozy and inviting. Those recliners in front of the fireplace were absolutely nap-inducing! The spotless kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and cookware. Modern appliances made meal preparation a breeze. Nice as the inside of the cabin is, my sister-in-law and I spent many blissful hours enjoying the rocking chairs on the huge front porch. The leaves were in full color, and we could just sit there and look straight up at the gorgeous foliage. Ah, bliss! Hubby and I enjoyed the sparkling clean hot tub in the evening, watching the stars and soaking away the hiking pains. The owner, Marsha, is a delightful lady, and she made it really easy to arrange our visit. She also went out of her way to help us work through a wi-fi issue late one evening, even though the problem was with our personal computer, not the cabin's connecttion. Tina, the on-site manager, is also friendly and helpful. She cheerfully went out of her way to assist us when we had a minor mechanical issue. (again, our ineptness!) She cheerfully interrupted her evening to come right over and quickly put things right. We've stayed at many cabins. Some were closer to town. (We were thrilled with the peace and quiet at Barefoot, which is just a few minutes' beautiful ride from town). Some were larger (Barefoot is plenty large without being uncomfortably huge). But none of them were as completely comfortable, as clean, as well furnished as is Barefoot. We'll be back and will be referring our friends!

Dear Marsha, We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Barefoot retreat. The size and decor were far beyond what we have come to expect from other places. Everywhere you turned you could find special touches. All the furnishings were comfortable and inviting. For 2 1/2 days we had sunshine and 80 degrees. It was hard to believe we were in the mountains1 The third day was rainy and cool which enabled us to curl up in front of the fire and read. The porch was great for enjoying majestic views and sounds of nature. The kitchen was well-equipped and I loved the island. It made preparing food a pleasure not a chore.The living room with 2 recliners was meant for relaxing.I've never stayed in a rental that had recliners. I know you worked diligently to create the atmosphere of the cabin. It did not feel as if we were staying in a stranger's place. It felt more like home. (I could only wish.) I'm not a big shopper but I did enjoy Tater Ridge: Apple Annie's and the Christmas Shop. Then we had to search for the new location of the Tangerine Frog.(We bought some of the best tea there:Bentley's Wild Blueberries...you'll have to try some.) My husband and his bicycle explored various areas, though a few of the steep hills were a challenge. All in all we did not want to go home.Thanks for loaning your home to us.

Beautiful cabin! Almost everything supplied so all you need to bring is your suitcase and groceries. Cabin beautifully decorated and clean. During our mini-vaction (July 25-28) the view was somewhat hazy, but definitely could imagine the view from front porch rockers in the fall. Definitely recommend this home and the owner is a very down to earth, easy person to talk with.
