Great Family Getaway

This property is incredible, and it was a joy to host our large family there for 2 birthdays and the Blue Ridge Ultra race. We will certainly be making a tradition out of staying at this property. I have been going to blue ridge for years, and this is my favorite house I have ever stayed in.

Fantastic stay in Mineral Bluff!

We had a fantastic stay to celebrate my 40th birthday. The kids absolutely loved hiking by the creek and playing in the tree house. The adults loved the fire pit, extremely comfortable king beds and the overall peacefulness of the property. We saw deer and wild turkeys which the kids loved as welll.

Excellent accommodation.

House and area were perfectly suited for our family: something for everyone - pool, hot tub, creek, playground, 1st class kitchen, very comfortable bedrooms, golf course, nice town, berry picking, Ingles. WARNING - no liquor, strictly BYOL. One of the best vacation rentals since 1976!

Thank you for staying at Southern Orchard House, Jess! That's a huge compliment and we very much appreciate your kind words. Yes, while liquor is served by restaurants within the Blue Ridge city limits, Fannin County doesn't allow sales of liquor/spirits - just beer & wine in grocery stores.
