Welcoming and Comfortable

Home away from home atmosphere. The 3 levels of accommodations gave us space to hang out together, then have our own little retreats.

Fabulous Getaway

Four friends stayed three nights to celebrate a milestone birthday. The place was perfect! We each had our own space yet the overall feel was cozy and warm. We loved it so much we’re already planning on returning in the fall. Great comfortable beds and furniture with gorgeous decor. We loved it!

Family Mountain Getaway

The cabin was spacious with wonderful views in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It’s 3 stories and had more than enough room for our family of 6. We took advantage of the foosball, pool, firepit, hiking, and all that the town of Blue Ridge has to offer. We highly recommend this VRBO.

Fabulous Cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cabin. We came to get away and relax for a few days. This cabin provided the exact environment needed. The Pardue’s were excellent hosts. We truly enjoyed meeting them and the privilege of getting to know them a little. Definitely would recommend Shade Tree Lodge to anyone wishing to enjoy the beauty of the Blue Ridge area.

Friends Getaway

The property was very clean and a short drive into town. We could not have asked for a better place to rent for a short friends getaway. Also, the mattresses are to die for. We actually took a picture of the one in the master bedroom and will be ordereing one for our home.

Double thumbs up!!

This property was the icing on the cake! Celebrating my brother’s 57th birthday, we had the best time most of which was at the cabin. The best part was coffee in the mornings in the rocking chair on the back deck while taking in the beautiful view. The worst part was having to leave. Would stay here time and time again.

Great weekend cabin in Blue Ridge!

We had a group of friends getting together in Blue Ridge and stayed at Shade Tree Lodge. This was such a perfect cabin! Everything was spotless and clean on arrival. All the amenities were working and they had even put up a Christmas tree for the Holidays which was a really nice touch. It was close enough to town that we were able to pop back and forth as needed, but really enjoyed the peace and quiet out at the cabin. I hope we are able to come back and stay again.

GREAT FIND!

Private cabin in the woods with plenty of space for 4 couples to enjoy the beauty of Blue Ridge. Owners came by the first morning to introduce and make sure everything was up our expectations. Lots of fun activities in the area. We went white water rafting and conquered the aerial adventure park. Fun times and great memories to be made here.

Our stay at Shade Tree Lodge

The property was very clean, spacious, updated, and had everything we needed for a long Memorial Day weekend with family. We were close to downtown Blue Ridge, and everything nearby for adults and kids: hiking, miniature golf, Mercier Orchards, etc. Also, the view was so lovely and the large decks provided nice cool breezes and meals, relaxation and the hot tub! There was something for everyone: televisions in each bedroom, fuzzball, pool table, and stuffed animals for our little granddaughters, and roasted marshmellows each night at the firepit. We would return for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Robert T. Pardue

Host profile image
My wife and I move to Blue Ridge Ga. 6 years ago after a couple years of vacationing here. We lived in Naples Fl. for 26 years and never thought we would leave Naples, but we found Blue Ridge to be just what we needed at this time in our lives. Life in the mountains is wonderful.

Why they chose this property

This property was our home when we first moved to Blue Ridge, we loved the cabin so much we built the same cabin a short distance away. The cabin has plenty of room, 3200 feet, with 4 bedrooms, 3 bath, large great room on 2 levels, with televisions in all bedrooms, 65 inch television on lower level with pool table and rock gas fireplace. Very close to Downtown shopping, train ride, and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

We think you will love the cabin as much as we do and one of the best things is the location.....2 miles to city limits of Blue Ridge.
