There is nothing like a tranquil getaway to truly disconnect from daily life and forget about everything else. This secluded cabin plus loft offers an unbeatable location only 20 feet from Fightingtown Creek in Cashes Valley - an award-winning wild trout fishing stream. This retreat enjoys approximately 150 feet of creek frontage and a firepit next to the creek where you can gather for some storytelling while roasting s'mores with your loved ones. You are also .3 miles to access the Benton MacKaye Trail (BMT), nine miles from Blue Ridge, 12 miles from Blue Ridge Marina, 13.5 miles from Ellijay, and 16 miles from the Ocoee Basin for white rafting and hiking.

There is plenty of outdoor space to create everlasting memories with your loved ones. A fenced dog run and fenced yard with astroturf and rock make this retreat truly perfect for guests traveling with dogs. The extensive deck offers a great spot to dine alfresco, host summertime cookouts using the gas grill, and lounge around the gas firepit.

As you enter this home away from home, you will be greeted by a quaint rustic ambiance with wooden and stone accents throughout. The inviting living room provides you with a fantastic and cozy place to gather - curl up on any of the comfy sofas and watch a favorite movie or show while the gas fireplace keeps you nice and toasty. Off the living area is a well-furnished porch facing the creek from where you can access the deck. Back inside, the cabin boasts a fully-equipped, eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances that will make cooking a breeze. A Keurig coffee maker will surely please all coffee enthusiasts in your group. The magic that holds this cabin might have you wanting to stay longer, but there is no need to worry about laundry! There is a designated laundry room with a stacked washer/dryer.

The primary bedroom can be found on the first floor, while the loft area hosts a private sleeping nook with a comfy bed, a TV, a seating area, and an en suite bathroom.

Surprise birthday trip for my husband
My husband myself and our 2 fur babies loved this property. Very pet friendly.Loved the fenced in yard and back porch. The cabin had everything we needed. The property was beautiful. The creek was amazing. The cabin was clean, comfortable and so welcoming. It was very private and peaceful but an easy commute if you wanted to go into town.

Clean and cozy!
I was a little worried about the two-star review below mine which appeared just before our scheduled stay. The cabin is situated in a nice area with nearby rentals. There is a brief stretch of gravel road leading up to the cabin where one two-story house definitely gives off "The Hills Have Eyes" vibes but I never felt unsafe or uncomfortable. In fact, we encountered many friendly locals. The cabin is about 15-20 from the nearest convenience store so I recommend making a grocery run before checking in so you have everything you need and can get settled right away. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pants and utensils but no pantry items. The property is PERFECT for dog owners. The cabin came with clean dog blankets and even a dog bowl for inside and outside. Very thoughtful touches for dog owners.

Did not like it, will not go back.
The cabin is in a sketchy/poor/messy area that you have to go through to get to the cabin. Strongly recommend arriving during day time, as the roads to get there get skinnier and skinnier, with a 45-degree inclination. The main door entrance and foyer is the laundry room. The cleaning crew picks up anything left by the other guests, and Vacasa does not provide anything other than toilet paper, paper towels, and towels. This means you must bring or buy everything, including coffee and sugar. Make your groceries before you start the 15-minute ascension to the cabin. It is also very small, with no room for four people to sit at a table, and very dark. There are TVs, but you must enter (and delete) your account if you want to watch Netflix or Prime Video. When it rains, the drops make a lot of noise on the roof. When it stopped raining, the drops from the trees made an even louder noise, and my daughter asked me if the noise was gunshots. When you walk on the second floor, the whole floor vibrates from the steps and if you are in bed trying to sleep, you will awaken. Check-in is at 4:00 pm, and check-out is at 10:00 am. If you want a "late" check out until 1:00 pm, you can do so for an extra fee. The place was squicky clean, and this is coming from my wife, who is a pain in the neck about that. It has good internet, but you must be connected to Wi-Fi and enable Wi-Fi calling to use your phone. There is little to no reception from T-Mobil near and at the cabin.

Cutest cabin EVER !!!
This was the cutest and cleanest cabin we have ever stayed in . Everything we needed was there . Check in and out was smooth except GPS took us to the wrong road on the other side of creek . It took us a while to find the right road because we also had no service there . We will definitely be back

GREAT cabin... need 4WD
I have to start off by saying that I would highly recommend a 4WD vehicle for accessing this cabin. The current state of the road that it is on is dirt and gravel with huge divots that will likely scrape the bottom of a sedan. The driveway is also steep. Multiple times when trying to leave the cabin we would make it part of the way up with my RAV4 and then get stuck and drift backwards back down to the bottom. Multiple times we almost called a tow truck to get us out. And with fall and wet leaves? GOOD LUCK. GPS also took us to the wrong location/opposite side of the creek so maybe double check your map when you get close. That aside, we absolutely loved this cabin! My husband said that it is his favorite that we have ever stayed at. Everything is adorable, cozy, functional, wonderful. The creek is just a few feet away, our dogs loved that. It is private and secluded but there are still other homes and cabins nearby but far enough away that you don't see them. Truly just a peaceful relaxing place in the woods on the stream to yourself. Comfortable beds, great water pressure, great fenced in area for the dogs, great all around! We will likely be back (with a different vehicle).

Wow! The cabin and the location was stunning! The cabin was completely spotless and cozy with everything you could possibly need. The enclosed back porch and deck was the perfect place to relax and listen to the creek.

Fabulous Weekend Getaway!!!
We were very impressed with this cabin. The cabin was immaculate! It's the cleanest cabin we've ever stayed in! We loved that it was so pet friendly. There was a lot of little unexpected extras. A lot of thought was put into their guest's needs. It had such a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. The creek could not have been more perfect. My favorite spot was the swing. However, I was afraid to swing in it, because one of the trees that it is attached to is dead. I was afraid it might fall. Paws Awhile has become our new favorite cabin to visit. We can't wait to visit again!
