This charming cabin located in beautiful Suches, Georgia, the 'Valley above the Clouds', sleeps 6 (one queen, two full, a bunk bed (memory foam mattresses)) and is literally steps from the Appalachian Trail.

Beautiful cabin
This vrbo was so clean! It looked just like the pictures online. My husband enjoyed getting on the AT if even for a short hike. He’s already wanting to go back to do a longer hike. It is a good drive from where we were going in Dahlonega, however, we loved the cabin and it has everything you could possibly need.

Mountain Blessing
If your heart lies in the mountains, this is the perfect place to be. Access to the AT is a few hundred feet away. There is one word that describes The Trail Cabin and that is AWESOME. We have rented the cabin in the spring for the past 12 years so that should be the best recommendation.

Perfect spot to access the AT
We loved our stay at the Trail Cabin. We did several hikes right from the cabin. The fireplace and all the bedrooms were very comfortable. Each of our adult children had an entire floor of the house and we enjoyed being on the main floor! Perfect getaway—-highly recommend!! Will plan on returning!

Fall Break Fun
This cabin was perfect for our grown children, their significant others, and my husband and I. It was easy to get to. It was well-furnished and had everything we needed. We visited Burt's Pumpkin Patch and R and A Apple Orchard during our stay. We highly recommend staying in The Trail Cabin.

Cutest cabin!
Adorable cabin and perfect for our weekend stay to visit surrounding towns. All was good except crickets kept appearing in basement where one of the bedrooms are located. I did tell property manager and he said they would address this immediately. Overall it was a good place to stay.

Beautiful quiet cozy
Cabin was absolutely beautiful and spotless! Everything looked brand new. Kitchen was fantastic. Excellent location. Close to the AT, walk to the AT from the cabin, and other trails, waterfalls, sightseeing, wineries. The AT decor made it so special as I am enamored by hiking on the AT. Thoroughly enjoyed the first fireplace fire of the season for us. The rain dropping on the cabin roof made it even cozier. Host was very responsive and so kind. We definitely will look forward to staying here again. Highly recommend.

Everything has been well thought out and provided for - a lot of little extras, like fresh guitar strings for the guitar in the bedroom! It's a beautiful cabin and we enjoyed our stay. The host is extra special.

Perfect Spot Just off the Appalachian Trail
We loved our stay at the Trail Cabin! From the moment we stepped out of the car - the songs of the Wood Thrushes were fabulous! Loved being SO CLOSE to the Appalachian Trail! We hiked every day! Great for resting, hiking, rock hounding, reading, porch swinging, plant identifying, and being together! Cabin is SPOTLESS! (And I’m picky!) AC was very good. Perfectly appointed kitchen for our needs (2-3 adults). Comfy couch. Very comfy beds. Washer/dryer. Grill. All perfectly as described! Tombo, our host, was responsive, friendly, and helpful. We will definitely return!

Steps Away from the AT
We are return guests for the past 10 years. That should prove to be the best review! The cabin is clean, continually updated, and well supplied. It always feels like “coming home”. If you are a hiker, this is the perfect place for you. You can hike to Blood Mountain from the cabin or just take short hikes on the AT. Three little words describe the cabin… It is perfect!

Relaxing home base for N GA adventures
Our fam of 6, kids 7, 9, 11, 13 had a blast starting the summer over Memorial Day weekend! The trail cabin is quiet, easy to access, comfortable, clean, and within 30 minutes of the best North Georgia has to offer. Super responsive host as well! We’d love to come back for longer day hikes on the AT right from the cabin.
