Retreat at Fall Branch Falls

Nature abounds in this whimsical forest retreat. Surrounded by rhododendron, ferns and endless forest views, and filled with the soothing sounds of the creek, the wilderness is right at your back door.

The space
Completed in 2021, our 480 sq foot, 1 bedroom cottage is perfect for 1-2 people looking for some quiet time in the mountains.

We have a fully stocked kitchen with a full size refrigerator, stove and dishwasher.

Bathroom -- We have a fully updated bathroom with large tile shower. But for real... that shower though.......

Snuggle up by the indoor fireplace (propane) located in the main living space. (Available for use from late November - April).

Enjoy a fire on the outdoor patio, adjacent to the creek.

Bring a dvd and watch a movie on the tv in the bedroom. (We are unable to get cable or satellite tv services, so dvd is your only option for tv.)

This is a place to truly unplug. We have very limited internet access.

**Please note: Our Retreat is not suitable for children or infants. **

Guest access
Guests have full access to the cottage and patio.

Other things to note
We do not allow children, smoking, pets or parties.

We love sharing our space with others,
but we ask that you comply with our house rules. Doing so helps us to keep our Retreat pristine for future guests.

Where you’ll be

Cherry Log
In the Appalachian foothills, mountain retreats and porch sitting set a quiet, wooded scene for weekends near north Georgia trails.
This listing's location is verified and the exact location will be provided after booking.

From the host

Our cabin is the closest cabin to the Fall Branch Falls waterfall (one of Blue Ridge's most popular trails) and borders the 300-mile Benton MacKaye Trail.
The Retreat borders the the Aska Adventure Area and the Rich Mountain Wilderness Area, making up 27,000 acres of untouched Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest.

The area is well known for all things outdoor -- hiking, mountain biking and trout fishing.

Charming Blue Ridge and Ellijay are just 25 minutes away. There are a few small restaurants only 10 minutes away from the cottage.
