About this property

Unwind in Charming Mountain Retreat near Helen, Blue Ridge & Appalachian Trail

Here’s an updated, cleaner VRBO/Airbnb-style version for **Hiker’s Haven:

Hiker’s Haven is a cozy North Georgia cabin at Misty Mountain Lodge & Cabins, located in the peaceful Trackrock area of Blairsville. A favorite for hikers, couples, small families, and mountain explorers, this cabin offers a comfortable home base close to waterfalls, hiking trails, Vogel State Park, the Appalachian Trail, wineries, scenic drives, and charming mountain towns.

Inside, Hiker’s Haven features a loft bedroom with a spacious king bed upstairs and a twin daybed with trundle downstairs. Guests can enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, new hardwood floors on the main level, a carpeted loft bedroom, quiet HVAC, and a wood-burning fireplace for relaxing mountain evenings.**

Step outside to the covered front porch for morning coffee, unwind by the fire pit, or enjoy the natural beauty surrounding the cabin. Guests also have access to nearly 5 acres of manicured lawn and wooded property, including gazebos, grills, fire pits, swings, benches, and peaceful spots around the pond.**

Parking is conveniently located directly in front of the cabin. Hiker’s Haven is easy to reach from Town Creek School Road while still offering a private, quiet mountain setting near Alexander’s Store and Sundance Gallery.

Please note: there are stairs leading up to the cabin, as shown in the photos.

Whether you’re hiking, exploring, visiting local wineries, attending a nearby event, or simply looking for a peaceful mountain escape, Hiker’s Haven gives you a comfortable and convenient North Georgia basecamp.

Quaint and Quiet

Quaint and quiet cabin that had everything we needed and more for a great visit to the beautiful Georgia mountains. Close to many fun places and to great restaurants and shopping too. Perfect size for my husband, myself and our granddog.

About the host

Hosted by Bill & Sarah Walsh

Host profile image
We purchased Misty Mountain with the intent of managing the property as a family affair with all members (all 4 kids included) learning aspects of the business. Our motto is "Rest, Renew, and Trail On" and it is our goal to provide quality lodging for those wanting to enjoy a relaxing mountain setting with numerous recreational opportunities. We want guests to arrive with rest and renewal in mind while they spend time on the trails, lodging in our cottages, and seeking outdoor adventures in the mountains. It is our hope you leave more energized than when you arrived. We look forward to calling Georgia our home and hosting you as our guest.

Why they chose this property

We love this property as it is close to Blairsville, which has some of the nicest people we've ever met. Misty Mountain is also really close to all the out door amenities this area has to offer. We have the best of both worlds!

What makes this property unique

We are conveniently located less than two hours from Atlanta, 11 miles to Brasstown Bald, 8 miles to Vogel State Park, 6.5 miles to downtown Blairsville and 4.3 miles to the Trackrock Petroglyph Site.
