We had a wedding to attend in the area and this Cabin was the perfect spot to stay!! So cozy, very clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the fire pit and the quiet atmosphere. It was fully equipped with everything we needed, from a fully stocked kitchen (pots and pans, coffee maker, dishes) to corn hole and uno cards. Beautiful property and experience! Highly recommend. The final half mile up was a little narrow and steep at times. Great overall experience.

Nice stay in North Georgia

We’ve stayed in a lot of cabins throughout the Smokies and north Georgia mountains and Fishful Thinking ranks with the best. Nicely situated and well stocked with thoughtful amenities, this is a sweet little cabin that is conveniently located and just the right size for a quick getaway. Highly recommended!
