"For the last 6 years our group of friends have
been to the
agreed that your home was the best place we have ever stayed. It was so homey and the views were beautiful. The kitchen was
stocked so well and we all love to cook. The porch fireplace was great. We kept both fires going, which made the food, wine, and
games even better. We will definitely be booking again for our next year’s trip."

Spectacular Views!!!! You could be sitting in these chairs right now!!!
I have been organizing this trip for about 10 years. I have looked online at hundreds of cabins. Your website represents your
home very well. There were no surprises.

I think Tuckaway Ridge may have spoiled all other cabin rentals for us forever! You have thought of everything –
thank you for sharing your home with us. One of our favorite moments was the snow falling while in the hot tub.

I wasn’t sure spending 5 days out in the mountains would be my cup of tea – I was wrong! We all had a terrific time at
Tuckaway. We’ve been to and stayed at many fine places all over the world and I’d have to say Tuckaway Ridge is one
of my favorites. You folks have created a little slice of heaven here and I’d like to thank you for allowing us to share it
for a little while. There are many adjectives I will add here…warm, inviting, peaceful, serene, simple, relaxing, and
CLASSY! From the minute we walked in we were stunned and excited about the place. I kept pinching myself.
How lucky we were to stay here…and how time flew! It went quickly whether you were relaxing and doing nothing or
participating in all the activities the area has to offer!

Great Inside Views as Well!
Master Bedroom (King) Main Floor Bedroom (King)
Tuckaway Ridge is a great cabin…it really exceeded our expectations. I can tell a lot of thought and planning went
into this place. Everything is top quality and beautiful. I look forward to visiting again, maybe in the fall to see the
leaves change. The Master Bed felt like heaven…The couch was perfect! Thanks for letting us experience Tuckaway.

Downstairs Bedroom (Full) "The Bunk Room"
From seeing the pictures on the website, we expected the cabin to be nice. But when we arrived we were completely
blown away. Tuckaway Ridge far exceeded our expectations. The house was impeccable and filled with so many
special touches. We enjoyed our stay here so much that we are already planning to come back again. T
hanks Terri and Steve for opening up your home. Awesome time for everyone.

next year. Thanks so much for opening your home for us to visit."

Downstairs Game Room and Saloon Outdoor Screen Porch with Wood Burning Fireplace
Our group agreed that this was one of the best vacations ever! The basement/rec room area was perfect for
the kids to hang out, not to mention the bunk beds themselves were a real treat! The adults enjoyed family
games in the living room and preparing meals in the well-equipped kitchen. The kids loved horseback riding
and the Scenic Train ride. We all enjoyed the hike to the waterfall. Thanks for opening up your cabin to us.

Tuckaway Ridge is located less than 4 miles from downtown Blue Ridge, GA. Blue Ridge is a quaint little town that is definitely gaining an “upscale” reputation and has often been compared to what Highlands, NC was many years ago. The downtown area is very charming with numerous antique stores, specialty stores, restaurants, fudge shops and more. Many of the older buildings are undergoing restoration to their original state from the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. There is also the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway (which travels along the Toccoa River), Whitewater River Rafting on the Ocoee River (the 1996 Whitewater Rafting and Kayaking Olympic Site), 300 miles of hiking trails (40% of the county where Tuckaway Ridge is located is National Forest), apple orchards, and three nearby 18-hole golf courses. Also, fishing, jet skis, and swimming are available in nearby Lake Blue Ridge. Of course, we like to just sit back, look at the view, read a book, or watch the 42” Plasma TV!

Some excerpts from recent articles on Blue Ridge:
New York Times, September 2006 - "Beyond the obvious - the proximity to Atlanta, the mountain lifestyle, the upscale amenities, the quaint downtown - the greatest appeal of Blue Ridge may be it's people. By city-slicker standards, they’re downright friendly and accommodating.....The climate is another plus. The area is cooler than Atlanta during the summer, but still far enough south that it snows only occasionally during the winter."
Mountain Homes Southern Style, Spring 2006 - "It's the flavor of Mayberry but with the amenity of a great little town.....This place is what Highlands, NC was 20 years ago."
