Beautiful house in a quiet area. My dogs and I spent the first half of the trip by ourselves, and loved lounging on the screen porch. My childhood friend came up partway through and we loved exploring the nearby orchards and downtown areas. Gorgeous part of Georgia and the house was perfection. Thank you!

Beautiful cabin and view.

I love my stay in this cabin. Everything was amazing. The cabin, the view, the area. The road in the mountain was a bit of an adventure but it just added to the experience. Five stars.

Great Property

We had a wonderful stay at the Pursuit of Happiness! They had everything you could need and more. We had a family emergency and needed to change our vacation dates and they accommodated it with no questions asked. The only thing that was a bit of a surprise was the size of the kitchen. It was much smaller than expected. Nothing major, just something to consider if your traveling with a large group that likes to cook! We would definitely return!!

Amazing Property

Very clean property that was very well appointed. Three couples stayed at the properly and all were amazed at location and the nice touches. The only complaint would be the size of the kitchen. It was very small and really could be only be occupied by a single cook.

All accommodations made for pup!

This is a great place to stay if you are bringing your pup. We really enjoyed the fact that the front porch was gated, as well as the two back decks were screened in and safe for our dog to roam around and not run off. The only thing that would have made our dog's stay better would be a patch of grass. She's a bit of a diva, so using the bathroom in rocks was a little challenging. The drive in is a little scary, so definitely drive an SUV or truck. The fact that each floor of the cabin had a living space to lay around was fantastic. We especially loved the downstairs TV room. The bedrooms were plenty spacious for us. The brand new hot tub was great! And don't be surprised by the green water-- that's normal well water. They provide all the K-cups you could need for a great cup of coffee. These owners thought of practically everything. We will definitely try to stay here again.

We loved every little thing about this cabin!

I don’t know if it was the hosts or someone else who designed the cabin itself, as well as the decor, but whoever it was, obviously crept in my mind and put every picture, blanket and piece of furniture I would have chosen myself if it were my cabin. This place was so cozy and so well thought out that I wanted to call the cabin the week after we left and tell whoever was there renting it that they needed to get out. They were trespassing in my cabin 🤣! While every room was beautifully designed, I never wanted to leave the comfort of the porch, so I didn’t. Seriously, I’m still there 🤣!

Amazing fall weekend

Our stay was wonderful! The cabin is very large and extremely well equipped! We loved all of the porches and the theater room! We were about 20 min from town but we didn’t mind-we loved feeling secluded! My only negative if I have to pick one was having to go get the key and then drop it off as it was about 20 min out of our way...it really wasn’t that big of a deal but other properties have had lock boxes which just make it a tad bit easier! Again it definitely didn’t hurt our experience it was excellent! The hosts have thought of everything!

Great escape

We had a terrific time staying at the house. The home theater room got a lot of use. We really enjoyed all of the decks and nice walk around the circle. Great area as well. Blue Ridge is a great little town and lots of great fly fishing streams relatively close as well. Hope to stay in this comfy home again sometime.

The cabin was incredible. I've been going to the mountains for years and I've never had a cabin so well stocked with towels, dishes, water, coffee and wood. Wish there was another way to check in to get the key instead of having to go to the rental site. It was out of our way to get there and then back track to get to the cabin.

Experiencing your "Pursuit of Happiness"

Very clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated cabin on a nice private road with mountain views. The cabin is super comfortable, roomy, and well supplied with linens, kitchen stuff, and even firewood. We had a couple of fires while we were there; it was great to get out of hot tub and then spend the rest of the evening warming up by the fireplace. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back and spend another great weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving cabin stay.

Nice and well appointed cabin to entertain the family for Thanksgiving. Three great sized rooms which accommodated everyone with king size beds in each. The entertainment room was top notch with high quality audio and video. The only minor drawbacks were the size of the kitchen (small) and enough hot water. Plan on small meals, not Thanksgiving dinner, and a 30 minute wait time between showers. All in all, a great location and beautiful cabin.

Great weekend get away

This cabin had lots of room, a fantastic media room, hot rub, two fireplaces and so much more. It was a great place to get away and enjoy the quiet of the mountains for the weekend. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. There were plenty of blankets for the cool fall nights. We loved it and would definitely go back!
