Blackberry Lodge

Excellent cabin! The cabin was in great condition and outfitted, inside and out. Fabulous location with incredible views! Close to downtown, Mercier's, and all the woodsy trails and nature you can possible imagine. Cabin felt secluded with end of the road location that mad it exceptionally quiet and peaceful but still easy to find and close to anything you'd need. We even had an instacart drop off within an hour of our arrival :) Everything was in working condition and well cared for from towels and toiletries to hot tub and furniture. Games, ping pong, and video game table kept the kids playing for hours. Upstairs back patio was the best spot for morning coffee and evening wine we've had in our adventures to the North Georgia mountains. We'll be back Blackberry Lodge! Highly recommend!

I was very impressed with how clean this home was. The decor made the home feel warm and cozy. The kitchen was stocked very well with plenty of dishes, utensils, and cookware to make family dinners. The fireplace was beautiful and the hot tub was very relaxing.

The entire process was simple! From booking to staying to checking out. Super easy and felt it was worth every Penny! I have already recommended EBR to friends and family! Will definitely use them again in the future.

The cabin was well appointed. We look for three things when we rent in the mountains: Mountain View, jacuzzi and game room. BlackBerry Lodge had it all! We loved how private it was but still felt secluded and private. We will definitely be coming back!!

Home was as described, and had everything (and more) than you have in your own home. I walked in and immediately felt at home. The wraparound decks were amazing. We enjoyed sunrises/sunsets on the decks. We loved the vacation home so much that we booked it for next year before we even checked out!

- Dwayne , Posted: 11/21/2020

01/17- Location was wonderful being at the end of the street. The overall design of the home was nice with a great view out back. Additionally, we really enjoyed being able to use the fireplace for most of our stay.

- Barbara

11/14- The firepit, although it was so cold and windy that we could not use it as much as we wouldhave liked to. Overall this was a beautiful location and being a dead end road it was perfect for our dog Kona. From the time of the booking to the arrival, they were very professional and helpful. I am in the hotel industry here in Atlanta so I can certainly identify with good customer service any you guy's have it down right!

- Luetta

11/16- We liked the fact that our dog, Kona, could join us. We have always been extremely pleased with the professionalism of the Escape to Blue Ridge staff and will certainly use them again for our mountain getaway. Since I am in the hotel industry I know how difficult it can be at times dealing with customers but you guys rock!

- Luetta

- Sharon

07/16- To begin, when we were driving up the road to Blackberry lodge, since it's in the mountains, I totally accepted a twisty, windy road but the last 1/2 mile or so is a gravel road & the road completely ends at this home. But I don't want to take away anything from this place at all. Its very clean, quiet, comfortable, beautiful, & very relaxing - we very much enjoyed it. Its not far from grocery stores, Walmart, auto parts store, etc. The kitchen has just about everything you need for cooking, pitchers, crock pot, toaster, nice coffee pot, linens were on the beds & the beds were made, & they provided a towel & wash cloth for each person & we used the washer & drier there. I wanted to write a nice story in the visitors log but we were so busy that we never got around to it. Our extended family visited Blue Ridge & we rented several cabins that were within walking distance of each other. While we were there we enjoyed the reunion of our family. We prepared meals & ate at least one meal together every day. There are little trails to explore, a horse shoe pit to enjoy, chopped wood is provided & fire pit was used almost every night. The WiFi, pool table, air hockey, & Jacuzzi was awesome! We went white water rafting on the Ocoee River, tubing down the Toccoa River, visited a local orchard. Mercer's Orchard is a wonderful place to visit! They have fresh produce, jams & jellies, cider, hard cider tasting, bakery items, & their fried pies are OUT OF THIS WORLD! Blackberry Lodge is a wonderful home away from home.

08/15- The log cabin was beautiful with a fantastic view of the mountains. It was the perfect size for our family. It was in the Aska Adventure Area - lots of fun things to do close by. We were able to bring our dog with us.

My congratulations to your company and your staff. We are very impressed!!

09/16- We had three cabins all within walking distance. It was really a great experience for our family members. Everything was wonderful.

- Rose M.

03/17- The open-airy feeling inside the house was a perfect match to go with the gorgeous scenery outside. I really enjoyed the amount of light that came in from all the windows. Some cabins are dark, almost cave like. Not Blackberry Lodge. It was perfect. Coffee in the mornings on the upper deck, sitting with the family around board games with a fire in the living room fireplace, even just being present with the family while cooking dinner- all of it was exactly what we were looking for! Everyone I spoke with (both over the phone and through email) were very professional, kind, and helpful. We ended up having some car trouble while we were there, and when I called to ask about extending our stay in the cabin for 3 nights (until our car was done in the shop) the agent was very sympathetic and kindly got us all set up.

- Jennifer

08/17- We enjoyed the view, the privacy, the hot tub and all the entertainment and games! Very relaxing trip. Friendly staff!
