First trip I planned and hosted, bringing my siblings and kid. This house made it well worth the drive, and the access to all the swimming holes etc around was a plus. I highly suggest getting this place and trying it out. I didn't want to leave, but definitely will be back!
We found this cottage while looking for a place close to Hippie Hole and it was such a cozy, beautiful home for the 6 of us! Julie was very responsive to my questions prior to arriving, provided suggestions for the local area, and left a Smore's kit for us which we appreciated. As mentioned in the listing, there is no cell service so I would suggest confirming and taking note of the WiFi password prior to arrival, as the VRBO app won't load. We enjoyed having coffee on the screened in porch and listening to the sounds of nature in the area. Overall it was a very relaxing stay in a beautiful, scenic area!
Remote area next to paved walking trails. Host had nice home decorating and snacks for us on arrival. Good communication and local food and piggly wiggly 10 min away. House comfortable fit 8 people and new appliances with starlink for Great wifi connection. Absolutely will come again!
The cabin was all that was listed and so much more! The thoughtful touches like chocolates and fresh water left in each bedroom, fixins for s’mores and microwave popcorn for cozy nights at home - the Chief Ladiga Trail is right there, so walking along that before coming back to the cabin to get ready for our next adventure was perfect. We were there for a reunion with family in the area and were already talking about our next trip - bringing bikes to ride the trail next time!! Thank you for letting us stay in your home
Reservation and check in was a breeze. This property was perfect for our family, packed full family games and plenty of room for our dog. It was a great getaway for the weekend, I wished we could’ve stayed longer!
While we only stayed for 2 nights and were extremely busy due to a wedding we were attending, our family agrees we will be returning when we can stay for a full week and explore more. This home is beautiful and it truly does feel like a home. Communications with the owner were excellent. Cannot say enough good things about our short stay!
We had a great stay. Absolutely zero complaints. Plenty of space for 6 adults and 2 pups. Beds were very comfortable. Very private location. Able to park 3 trucks in the circular drive and all were pulling trailers for our sxs. Short drive to Indian Mountain ATV Park. Would definitely book again.
We had a great stay at this property, such a cute house and very clean. We enjoyed the fire pit and screened-in porch the most. As we were planning the trip, the owner was so great to communicate with us in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend staying at this location.
My family of 5 used Chief of Ladiga Cottage as our home base for a week. The Host, Julie, was very communicative and gracious to provide some heart felt amenities. The Cottage is remote enough for privacy but not too far from town. We all had a great time!!!!
Spectacular cottage with lots of thoughtful touches
We loved our stay at this cottage. It was full thoughtful of touches like chocolates on the bed, labeled switches to help navigate the house, and even some smores ready for our arrival. We highly recommend it, especially if you enjoy cycling. It's right on the Chief Ladiga trail. We loved being able to pedal into Piedmont for coffee at Elevated Grounds as well as longer rides out to Georgia. Plenty of nearby hiking too.
House was very clean and beds were extremely comfortable! Perfectly located near silver comet trail! Host went over the top to make sure we had what we needed! We’ll definitely be coming back!
We stayed here to ride our SXS'd at Indian Mountain.
The property is amazing.. very nice.. neat place. The only downfall which might not be for others is the limited connectivity.
Host is very good to work with..
Would definitely stay again.
Perfect for our family gathering. Adequately stocked with kitchen & dining necessities. Plenty of space for relaxation and conversations, inside and outside. Thank you for sharing your home!
This place was absolutely beautiful!! Loved that it had trail walks. When we arrived they had s’mores and stuff. For the fire. It was absolutely amazing. Definitely would do this trip again stay at the house.
This place is awesome, off the beaten path, has everything you need the only thing I would do different is ADD pictures of a beautiful stream that's right behind the house .
Beautiful cottage surrounded by national forest. Almost magical trail. leave the house on you bike and pedal to atlanta or anniston with no worries of car traffic.
Hosts thought of everything from smore fixings, coffee, sweet treats- even firewood.
Thank you for a wonderful stay.
We will be back!
