Lisa and Willard drove up from Atlanta for a long weekend to celebrate their tenth
anniversary. They instantly fell in love with the Blue Ridge Mountains, the quaint
towns, the winding mountain roads, and the leisurely pace of mountain life. By the
time Sunday night rolled around, they were talking about buying land.
Fifteen years later, they own ten acres in Suches, and just finished building The Bird
House — which was meant to be Lisa’s She-Shed, but quickly evolved into the
beautiful cabin you’re reading about now. Lisa tells me that one day she and Willard​ Pro Tips & Local Wisdom

We loved our stay at The Birdhouse!

I wanted to get away with my teenage daughter for a little mom/daughter time. She's leaving for college in the Fall and things have been so hectic lately so we really needed a "slow down" The birdhouse was the perfect retreat. The home is cozy and so cute - and the surrounding area is ultra peaceful. We hiked, explored the town and made a lot of memories in this little secluded paradise. Thanks to Joni for all her assistance and answering my endless questions! She was super helpful.

The Perfect Spot for Mom Retreat

I was given an opportunity for a little mom retreat—a short vacation just myself to recharge. This little gem of a home was perfect! Cozy, just the right size and a perfect place to get away. The property manager was communicative, but not overbearing and I really had a great time recharging my battery

This property was absolutely perfect for us. The size the amenity's location and the view.

Nice and quiet. Very private.

Great getaway

Perfect size for 2 adults and 2 dogs. The last section of driveway to get to the cabin is quite uphill, thankfully it is paved, but still kind of worrisome. We had no trouble in a car even after it rained. Could be difficult to walk up for some people. The creek was nice and the dogs enjoyed it. Even saw a deer. The fireflies put on a show every night and the stars seemed brighter each night. Not much of a view of the surrounding mountains, but that's ok. The cabin itself was perfect- away from the busy hustle of everyday life. Plenty of waterfalls and wineries within driving distance. The curvy roads were fun to drive. We would consider staying here again.
