Cozy, Clean and Captivating

From the start of booking, our host went above and beyond to ensure that our stay at "A Rustic Hideout" would be enjoyable and memorable. The weather didn't exactly cooperate during during our visit, but we were perfectly content with having coffee and breakfast on the porch overlooking beautiful scenery, snuggling by the fire, and relaxing in the hot tub. This is definitely a spot we plan to revisit!

Wonderful Stay!

Our stay at A Rustic Hideout was wonderful. The cabin is very clean and nicely stocked with everything you may need. I did not find anything broken or overused, as is the case in many cabins. The mountain view is beautiful. I felt confident that Marilyn would take care of anything that came up, and her attention to detail was unmatched. Be sure to prepare for navigating the road in. I printed the directions that Marilyn provided, and we drove it in the daylight. It is tedious, but worth it! We would love to stay at A Rustic Hideout again!

Amazing place to get away from it all!

This was our second visit to the Rustic Hideout. It was just as amazing as the first. Cabin has everthing you need if you just want to stay there and not venture out. If you choose to explore many things to do close by. On this trip we also spent time on the square in Elijay, eating out in Blue Ridge, and a day trip to Helen. Nothing better then waking up and sitting on the balcony enjoying the view. The layout of a common area and then two sepeate king bedroom with bathroom is ideal. Cabin allows the opportunity to spend time or spread our if you need space. We will be back!

Lovely little cabin tucked away at the mountain top! The road is quite challenging to get to the cabin but beautiful view once you arrive. Make sure you have everything you need upon arrival and be sure to follow travel instructions from owner! Host is very accommodating and pleasant although sometimes response via email is delayed. Property caretaker was quick to respond to minor issue. If looking for a quiet, off the grid space, this is a great option!

A quiet peaceful week.

The cabin is nestled in tall trees with a spectacular view of mountains. We spent most of our time on the porch reading, talking and gazing at the mountains. It was the break we needed. Marilyn is a most gracious host. If we were to go back to the mountains, this is where we will stay. A thoroughly enjoyable week.

Our stay at A Rustic Hideout couldn't have been better.

The cabin was very clean and nice. The most well equipped place we have ever stayed. Amenities included a hot tub, rockers and a grill on main level deck. On deck below were two large bed swings, more rockers and a bar. There was also a fire pit. All this with a scenic view of the mountains. Our hostess, Marilyn, was the BEST.
