Wonderful cabin on top of a mountain with a fantastic view of the surrounding area. Cabin was very clean, comfortable, all necessary amenities provided. Very quiet and peaceful yet close to many sites to see and experience. And best of all it is pet friendly, we and the 2 dogs had a a great time.

The view was so beautiful. The internet would not work on our phones no matter what we did. Tv was buffering and stopping all the time. Could up date chairs in the livingroom they were worn out and a little dirty. I could understand if it was a hunting cabin, but a place with a view so beautiful needs to look beautiful on the inside too.

STILL BEST VIEW

This was our second stay here. Though the trees have grown up a bit, it still a great place to sit on the porch and see the lake and the mountains. Very quiet spot.

Awesome view. Nice place to stay. Good host. Beds sort of old and uncomfortable. TVs pretty old and outdated. Big climb up to the place but that’s what makes the view awesome. Thought pets were included but that got added at the last minute. Overall would recommend.

The Perch is the perfect getaway spot. The views are amazing, the property is superb, and the peace is fabulous! Far enough away to be private, but close enough to food and entertainment. The perfect vacation getaway.

Enjoyed the cabin. It had everything we needed. It was quiet and peaceful. The view is so beautiful. We sat outside a lot enjoying the view. We would rent again. The only issue was the drive up was a little steap but the view is worth the drive.

Sit in one of the tall adirondack chairs that looks over the rail or relax in one of the cushioned chaise lounges for a perfect lake, mountain and sunset view. The home sits on a private, secluded lot at the end of a dead end road, FULLY PAVED with parking for 2 cars wide. Only 2 miles from the middle of town, Hiawassee, Ga.
