DIRECTIONSGA.COM LODGING | 77 kick back I relax Cozy is the best way to stay - enjoy a creek, lake or mountain view from the deck of a comfy rental cabin, hotel room or B&B Sometimes the “staying” is the best part of your time in the mountains. Relaxing on a wraparound deck with endless views of the Blue Ridge mountains, it’s easy to slip into “mountain time”! Mountain Lodging Once the domain of a handful of mom-and-pop operations, lodging has become big business in the mountains. Now, you can take your choice of closein hotels, cozy cabins, quaint B&Bs, rustic lodges and multi-level homes that can hold several generations of family. Along the Let ’s S tay! way, cabin rental companies have expanded, matured and grown much more in tune with the needs of their customers. Escape to Blue Ridge, for example, offers an unparalleled selection of area cabin vacation rentals and, through its partnership with a professional linen service, provides guests with high-end luxury linens (nothing beats a luxurious fluffy towel after a hot shower!). “Before, linen quality depended on whatever the homeowner supplied,” notes coowner Pamela Miracle. “We’ve created a standard across our entire port folio that's more in line with a luxury hotel, and our guests have grown to appreciate more from their Blue Ridge cabin rental experience.” Many cabin rental companies also provide resort-style service via a concierge that can handle all the details for a day of horseback riding or whitewater rafting, arrange for a flyfishing guide, even make restaurant and theater reservations. Finding the Perfect Cabin Lodging providers here in North Georgia have all invested substantially to provide a wonderful online experience for customers, complete with gorgeous photos, detailed information and online booking. But here’s the best part — they also invest themselves in their business. That means they actually enjoy talking with their customers! Many of these companies are owned and operated by folks who have lived here their entire lives. So go ahead and ask them where their favorite picnic spot is (and maybe even their super-secret fishing hole!). Then sit back, relax and stay awhile … you can't beat the view!
