Top Anna Ruby Falls Hotel Reviews

Whispering Creek Cabin – Peaceful, Hot Tub, Firepit & Mountain Escape

10/10 Excellent

"This was a fantastic weekend getaway from Atlanta! Perfect for our family of 4 - 2 parents and two 20 y/o's. Hot tub was so welcome after the hikes. Thoughtful touches like leaving a square of aluminum foil and 1-2 ziplocs were much appreciated. The number on the cabin says 55 instead of 85, so that was the only hiccup - but once we realized the code worked, we figured it out. Comfortable beds, working WiFi and TV, heat/cool works great and wonderful communication with rental crew. Note that there are no toiletries provided (shampoo, soap) - not a problem, just plan ahead! Great location and private. Highly recommend!"
