Love the Loft!

We chose this cabin based on the quaint size and the fact that it had a big loft, which our kids absolutely loved! Plenty of games upstairs, which was a nice touch. The loft area was warm on the cold nights, so we appreciated the fan, and there were enough blankets downstairs to balance out the temperature difference (as expected with a loft). Cabin was equipped with everything we needed - our only suggestion would be to add a USB charging station, but we also wouldn't consider this a negative point. Found the cabin in the dark and didn't have any problems, the Christmas lights were such a cool touch! Got to meet Bill and area resident pup Benji, super friendly & we loved the restaurant suggestion in nearby Blairsville (can't say enough good things about the Mexican restaurant). Very happy we chose this location!

Appalachian Trail Hiking Trip

This was a great property for my family of 4 and 2 dogs. The kids loved having their own bed and space in the upstairs loft. There is plenty of area to take your dogs for a walk to stretch their legs and do what they need. This is a good location to feel like you are away from everything even-though you are short drive from restaurants and necessity shopping. We used the property as base camp to do some day hikes on the Appalachian trail.

Quiet Get Away

The owners were really nice and the cabins were just the right size for our family. It was close enough to the city, but far way enough to feel like you were getting away.

Perfect little getaway!

The Dancing Bears Cottage was absolutely perfect! The VRBO had everything we needed for our stay and was the perfect size for our little group of 5 girls! So quaint and cute, we loved the cottage theme! A short drive to Walmart and a couple restaurants, lots of good places to eat nearby. Just a short distance to downtown Blue Ridge where there are plenty of activities to keep you occupied. Everything was exactly what we were looking for!

Lovely

Had a wonderful couple of days with friends. The Dancing Bear cabin was beautiful and we were close enough to hiking, waterfalls and the Helen, GA rollercoaster for lots of fun.

Mountain getaway

This was so much fun! I only booked two days, for fear of the kids getting bored. We ended up staying another day because the kids loved it so much! We will definitely come back! The property is adorable and the owners are super friendly!
