WOW!!! Creek and Large stocked pond Waterfront Cabin in the National Forest

We have a no pet policy. Trout Run Cabin is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath real log cabin located on the banks of Fightingtown Creek, a protected trout steam. The cabin sleeps 6 comfortably. No pets, no smoking, no hot tub.

We are a family destination not a party location. It is very quiet here and we like it that way. If you like whimsy, you will love it here. The pictures tell the story.

At Trout Run Cabin you can take long walks back into the forest for miles or sit on the porch and read a book. How about sitting by the fire pit out back at night making s'mores while listening to the crystal clear water rushing by. The sounds of the forest are all around you. This is a very peaceful place. Lots of flat areas for the children to run and play. Bring their bikes and they can ride all day long.

No license needed to fish in the pond out front.

Inside you will find 2 premium king size beds: One in the master suite and the other in the loft suite. Also, there is a set of bunk beds in the bunk room. All beds have 1500 Egyptian cotton thread count sheets.

Come Relax and Re-energize.

A Great Place to Stay

The cabin and property is well maintained and well stocked with dishes, pots, pans etc. There was plenty of room available if there were additional guests so that everyone could "Spread out" and have personal space.

Beautiful Stay

The cabin was very cozy and nice. The water on both sides of the cabin was really a big hit for my husband and myself, it was so easy to drive to other places(Ellijay, Blue Ridge etc,.) I definitely would recommend this cabin. The cabin was well stocked and had everything you.

Don’t think twice… book now!

My family and I had a wonderful stay here! My boys were in the creek daily and when they weren’t tubing on the creek they were fishing in the lake. The cabin is the perfect size. There is everything you need and more!! We loved it.

Beautiful setting

We went here for our 50th. anniversary, hoping to find fish. There were none. The stairs to the loft were hard to navigate. The stove and oven were dirty. This really is not a good place for bike riding. However, if you're looking for a place in a beautiful setting to just relax and listen to the creek, this is it. The neighbors are very nice and Murray is congenial.

Relaxation in the country

This home is ideal for a lovely time to relax in the country. It's filled with charm and nicely decorated. By far my favorite is the long back porch which overlooks the flowing brook behind the house. You can walk for miles right from the house, and the neighborhood dog, Rosco (I think that's his name) will tag along. I could easily come back just to relax on that back porch! The house has a bed room on the ground floor and a loft bedroom upstairs. If downstairs, you can easily hear people walking upstairs...so better for light sleepers to sleep upstairs in the loft. No condiments are kept in the frig, so make sure you pick any you need up ahead of getting to the property. It's a long ways to get to the store! Finally the neighborhood just has a sweet feel. Wish my own neighborhood was so friendly! This seems like the way life should be!

Amazing Get-away !

One of the most relaxing vacations we have ever taken. The cabin was very comfortable and beautifully furnished. The upstairs bathroom is small, but all of the necessities are there ! The creek and the pond were too wonderful for words ! Nearby Mercier Orchards is a must visit .(only place we left the cabin to see !) Smores, coffee and homemade pies from the Orchard enjoyed around the fire/creekside, a game of horseshoes, a walk in the forest, fishing in the pond and creek......just doesn't get much better than that ! And if it rains, you are in for a treat....wonderful porch with very comfy furniture to enjoy the sound of the roaring creek and the rain .You will not be disappointed. The owner and neighbor were very helpful and thought of every detail ! Best stocked cabin ever ! Very peaceful and "off the beaten path".....we hope to be back in the Fall ! We did not want to leave !Thanks for a fantastic weekend.....the two guys said it was "best Fathers Day " just hanging out. Very special place.

Absolutely Unbelievable

Renting was deceiving because you are not allowed to fish the entire pond, only the area in front of your rental. However everyone living in that area are allowed to fish the entire pond, even in front of the area you paid handsomely to rent. During our entire stay, a man (assuming living in the area) had everyone in our group feeling uncomfortable because he walked around with a gun on him in plain sight every day. He also had a vicious dog with him that absolutely scared the children. Everyone felt comfortable coming into our space but we couldn't walk around into theirs. There was one lady, very nice, that walked her dogs every day and would let the children pet and play with them. Other than the experience with her, it is not a racially friendly place to visit.

Peaceful retreat

Absolutely wonderful place to stay!!! The home was as described, and the owner was very responsive and helpful. Our family of four enjoyed the stream and pond the most. We brought kayaks with us, so the kids enjoyed fishing from those and not just the banks. If you love the tranquil sound of a stream, this is the place to go! My kids were even able to tune in the stream. It wasn’t too deep or shallow. The neighbors are very friendly, and you really couldn’t ask for a better family style getaway! Kitchen was well stocked too which is important to our family because we don’t eat out much. I would recommend this place to anyone without hesitation!

Peaceful Family Getaway

This is the perfect cabin getaway nestled on the creek, quiet, and perfect distance from Blue Ridge so you are able to truly unplug. The family of geese were adorable and the deer were very much out and about so definitely caution to take your time going around those back roads. Gravel roads lead up to the cabin. We have a minivan so had to go pretty slow as there were some bigger dips in the road bit definitely manageable. On to the inside, everything you could possibly need minus groceries and toiletries, all there. 2 king beds in downstairs bedroom and in loft. Our favorite part of the house was the all seasons room where you could sit and just listen to the rolling creek. Now it's important to remember that this is very much in the woods and bugs are to be expected. Big tip is to make sure counters and sink stay clean from anything that could attract ants. Again, just comes with the territory. Definitely recommend thale stay whether it's a couples getaway or a family vacay. Awesome spot! Oh and big thanks to Ellen for checking on us after the twins accidentally called lol!

Blue Ridge Mountains Christmas

Becaue we live in Tampa, we usually try to get to a cold climate during the Christmas holiday. This year we decided in the Georgia Blue Ridge mountains and we weren't disappointed. The cozy house was perfect. The fireplace was awesome and kept us warm during the chilly nights. The sound of the backyard creek was heavenly as we hung out around the firepit. We made friends with Buster, the neighborhood dog and he hung out with us as well.The kids loved skipping rocks on the pond and running around with Buster. We.couldnt have asked for a better time and the memories made will last foreever. We will definitely be back

Cherry Log Cabin

The property was well-supplied and very clean. We tried to go fishing, but after not much luck, one of the neighbors said it was fished out. The creek was so nice to sit beside and we enjoyed the neighbor’s dog, Buddy. The only things that would’ve made our stay better, would’ve been a TV upstairs and a hot tub. We would definitely stay here again though and would recommend.

Couples getaway

We had an amazing stay at a beautifully located cabin at the perfect time of the season for the leaves to change. Had a great time in downtown Blue Ridge great places to eat and go antiquing. Relaxed by the fire pit next to the creek listening to the beautiful sounds of nature. Also had fun, relaxing while fishing had a couple of bites and caught one fish that we released back into the pond. Enjoyed playing with the neighbors dogs, especially buddy. Mountainside market is a delicious and convenient place up in the mountain to eat and do minimal shopping.

Piece of Heaven

We all decided that this was the best yet. We enjoyed the cooler weather & some fall color. The cabin was perfect, most comfortable beds we have slept in. Everything we needed was there. The afternoon walks with Ellen, Buddy & the crew were priceless. Smores by the creek were so relaxing. I could go on & on about this cabin. We are already talking about next year. Thanks for a great week.

Family Fun for Labor Day Weekend

The creek was just steps from the back porch and provided hours of fun - especially the inner tubes. Toasting marshmallows and making s'mores around the fire pit were great ways to close the day. The house is very clean over all, though there were some small spider webs on the hanging light fixtures- including the one over the kitchen table. The cabin itself is well stocked and cozy. It truly was a lovely, relaxing weekend with many happy memories made.
