Not great, not terrible

The main things that we were not happy about: 1.) Was not clean, floor was dirty, counters and table top was dirty, someone’s Qtips and soap wrapper was in the up stairs bathroom, there were spider webs everywhere. Tons outside, several inside. 2.) Dryer did not work. Very disappointing. Luckily we were only there for 3 full days. 3.) The TV downstairs did not work. We even bought batteries for the remote thinking that may be the problem but nope. And it was college football opening weekend. 4.) The paper towels that were there when we got there were almost gone. Seems petty but every place we have ever stayed had a full roll of paper towels when we arrived. 5.) No outdoor furniture was out on any of the outdoor decks/entertaining areas. In my opinion it should be out, we should not have to get it out. 6.) Decor (furniture, appliances, Knick knacks all was very out dated. The petty things probably would have been overlooked if not for the pretty major things. Things we were happy about: 1.) the location. 2.) the cabin was beautiful built. 3.) the location 4.) the number of rooms. 5.) the location.

GREAT TIME!!

We had a great time. The property matched the online photos and description perfectly. We really enjoyed the stay and the people in the surrounding communities. It was a short drive to lots on fun things to do. The lake was absolutely amazing. The cove made it calm and great to kayak and paddle board in.

Nice area/Dry lake

Unfortunately the lake was extremely low during Thanksgiving week and the next door neighbors were having a dock built during our stay. Track hoe and construction noise/visuals of what little water remained in the lake. The house was comfortable and the kitchen well organized. Washing machine takes forever to fill up. Living room fireplace smokes bad without proper ventilation. Outdoor fireplace was nice. Plenty of well lighted parking. Downstairs playroom worked well for the kids. I'd give our stay a solid four stars.

Family vacation

This property was wonderful! Right on lake. So nice to have our boat in a nice deep water dock in front of house. The host was very responsive. We had oven problems but host ordered new appliance. Plus the grill was nice. Quiet. Town of Blue Ridge was fun to explore and shop. Good restaurants. Tubing close by was fun. Living Waters winery most lovely setting and good wine and wine cocktails, plus Cajun food truck.

Senior’s Weekend getaway

Easy to rent. Agreement is strict to avoid loud party groups, but that assured me that we were getting a quiet getaway spot. Lake was low, but the dock is on deep water so lots of depth around the dock. Did some paddleboarsing and kayaking. They supply kayaks. Being in a cove kept the water calm. Enjoyed a day walking about Blue Ridge but mostly just came for the quiet, paddleboarding and fishing. Saw lots of bluegill, sunfish and bass swimming around the dock and shoreline. Big plus was allowing dogs. We brought the pup . No sign of extra wear so we tried to leave it like we found it.

Great stay

My family and I very much enjoyed our short vacation on Lake Blue Ridge. The accommodations were cozy and clean, and the view was unbeatable. The dock and kayaks were a big hit, as was the outdoor fireplace. And communications with the owner (Shane) were quick and easy. We would definitely return again and highly recommend this property.

Finding our happy place!

We love taking our boat out on Lake Blue Ridge, but this was the first time renting a lake house/cabin. Shane’s place was perfect and exactly what we were looking for in our weekend getaway with family and friends. The layout was ideal and we all had plenty of space and everything we needed including beautiful views from all the decks!! I highly recommend staying here!

Family Vaca @ the Lake

We had a wonderful family vacation week! Location: Great! Cabin was easy to get to and the cove is one of the best/quietest/deep water coves on the lake. Quiet neighborhood. Accommodations: Plenty of inside and outside room for our family of 6 adults and 1 child. The cabin and furnishings are a bit dated and worn but still very comfortable. A couple of cleanliness issues, but nothing we couldn't remedy ourselves. Just a few dislikes: Dryer didn't work particularly well, no vacuum in the house that I could find, having security cameras looking at us from every angle - felt like "big brother" was always watching us.
