Description
Laurel Valley Lodge is named for the mountain laurel covering the valley it overlooks. Approach this beautiful mountain retreat in springtime and you'll see pink and white blossoms around the cabin and throughout the valley below. Here, you'll enjoy spectacular mountain views, and your location in the popular Aska Adventure Area puts you close to everything. One of the few five-bedroom cabins in the North Georgia Mountains, this spacious lodge is ideal for large groups, family gatherings, holidays and business retreats. Good times are sure to 'blossom' here among the laurels!

The living room will welcome you with its cathedral ceiling and enormous iron chandelier. Sink into the leather sofa to watch a movie, or curl up in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine. Unique accents will delight you, from the twisted bark branch table and bird's nest lamp to the wood-carved guest book. 

And each room is imbued with charm, with tongue and groove wood throughout, hickory branch furniture, Middle Eastern rugs and rustic fixtures. Seasonal garland and arrangements celebrate nature's beauty all year, including a small Christmas tree at the holidays; harvest decorations in autumn; and ivy, birds and flowers during spring and summer. 

The upstairs loft offers a recreation room with a view. Play pool on the hand-carved billiards table, or have a drink at the hickory pub table while enjoying vistas of the mountain range and laurel blooming below. 

The second living room downstairs makes a great hangout for the kids. On rainy days, they'll love watching movies or playing board games in front of the cozy fireplace.

Whether a holiday feast or Super Bowl snacks, you'll have everything you need to entertain in this fully equipped kitchen, featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances and gourmet cookware.

The main level's huge wraparound deck is perfect for outdoor entertaining. Grill the Georgia trout caught earlier from the Toccoa, and share stories around the fireplace. On the lower deck, relax under the stars in the sunken hot tub or enjoy a nightcap on the Adirondack chairs. 

Fascinating wildlife frolics outside your door. Bring some bird food, fill the feeders, and pour water in the birdbath, and you will be visited by a variety of colorful birds. Flying squirrels will also eat the bird food at night — grab your flashlight and watch them fly from tree to tree. You may also spot some deer, or even a bear!

Each bedroom has its own theme, with hand-quilted bedding and variations of cedar and knotty pine. The 'Crow's Nest' bedroom is closest to the stars, reflected in the room's star theme — and in your views from its walkout porch. The main floor master has a twisted branch king bed and designer bedding. Indulge in a movie under the covers, or watch for flying squirrels from your private balcony. Also, there are two queen suites on the top floor loft area with its own bathroom. On the lower level, you'll find a bedroom with a king bed and second bedroom with two full beds, perfect for children or single people. 

Whether you're seeking rest or play, this spacious retreat will provide a wonderful vacation experience for you, your family and friends. Happy memories of your stay at Laurel Valley Lodge will bloom and grow for years to come!

This cabin was perfect for us. Group of friends we had comprised of 3 families, 1 and myself also having small children. Layout was perfect. Most cabins you find over 3 bedroom are aimed at small children, not 3 adult couples. Quiet, spacious. Everyone was able to be together, but also able to have their own space as well. Definitely one of the best rentals where we have stayed(we have been coming for a long Presidents' Day weekend every February for 10 years now).

Plenty of room for six single ladies. Kitchen is well equipped. Easy driving distance to Blue Ridge and shopping.
- Janet , Posted: 09/03/2023
It had everything we needed--the kitchen was fully stocked with utensils. It was the perfect size. We loved being here.
- Lisa , Posted: 05/09/2023
The location is perfect. It's not too far out of town but far enough that you feel a million miles away from the city.
- Ron , Posted: 12/13/2022
This home was very spacious and well laid out to give our combined family of 10 plenty of room for togetherness as well as privacy. We especially enjoyed the wide wrap around porch.

House was a gem! Worked out well for a quick spring break trip out of town. Since we live Tampa, we vacation in the mountains! Lived the fireplaces and fire pit. Really liked that everything was in this house that we needed and the stores were only a few miles away.

The feeling of home when we walk through the front door to the appointments and eye for detail that gives us a true lodge feeling. We've stayed here three years in a row and actually booked it for twice in 2021. We love it so much, we won't go anywhere else! My family have made great lasting memories from our times spent there.

11/18 - This cabin was absolutely perfect! The interior design was very beautiful, the fire pit was so fun, cookware was stocked in the kitchen, the beds were comfortable, everything was clean... we couldn’t have asked for more! Great company! Every time I called, someone friendly answered the phone quickly and answered all of my questions. It was a very smooth vacation process and that speaks volumes of a great company!

02/15- We have stayed in this house before and all of your homes are beautiful! Escape to Blue Ridge has always been wonderful to us for the last several years and we will continue to use them. This is an annual family girls' trip, but we are thinking that we will come towards the end of March or beginning of April next year! This is the second year in a row where getting up/ down the mountain has been a concern with snow in February.
- Anne
01/16- Big and beautiful. Even though it rained most of the time we were there, there was plenty of space for two families not to get in each others' way. Great location.
- Danielle
01/15- The layout worked very well for our large family. There were a few safety concerns  where we could have used baby gates but they would not stop us from returning. Very clean and full stocked with everything we needed. The kids loved the visits from the neighbors dog.

06/15- Since it rained a lot the week we were at this house, we loved having the covered porch. The floor plan of this house was perfect for our group. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit and making S'Mores. The kitchen was very well equipped and I liked the way the cabinets and drawers were labeled. Love working with you-- have no complaints. Before I found you I was working with another company, and I definitely prefer yours!!!

04/16- The space, the sturdy furniture, the windows, the showers! Actually, these attributes are too many to name. What the company offers it delivers. This is our second time renting cabins here and we've never been disappointed. When there were issues with the stove and another with the dishwasher, a maintenance was sent out immediately. Although the problem with the stove was not resolved it was manageable.
- Margaret E.

We are always impressed by the quality of the homes we stay in. The staff are very friendly and always accommodating! We travel to the area at least once each year and will ALWAYS use Escape to Blue Ridge!!!

- Tim
7/21/14 Laurel Valley Lodge. This is a beautiful cabin with a great kitchen, porch and family room. I love that the hot tub was in the open and not under a deck. We used the firepit often......great atmosphere. I do feel like guests need to be aware that the 2nd bedroom with 2 double beds in the basement has no bathroom access. The other basement bedroom has it's own private bathroom and other guests cannot enter without entering their bedroom. The master on the main floor has a fabulous bathroom and the upstairs rooms each have their own bathroom. A half bath is available on the main floor and the downstairs guests came upstairs to use it. FYI All the information sent out in advance was extremely helpful. Thanks!
- Jeana
09/15- I thoroughly enjoyed the spacious rooms, outside deck(s)and quaint atmosphere. Pretty decent company. You all were very accommodating during the payment and rental process. Thank you!

- James
06/17- The home is beautiful, spacious and perfect for large families. There was enough space for people to be in the same room without stepping on each other, however at the same time provided privacy for those who wanted to get away and enjoy the view. Staff very helpful. Had a question regarding the hot tub and the staff assisted immediately.
- Lakisha
10/17- The home was gorgeous with everything we needed. The beds were so comfy and there was plenty of space for a group of friends. Everyone was wonderful! The staff was so helpful when I had questions. I look forward to visiting other properties soon.
- Leigh

- Monica J
03/17- We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. It snowed 2 days while we were there and we loved that. Escape to Blue Ridge staff has been very professional and helpful. We chose them over another company before our last trip to Blue Ridge because they were so much more helpful and friendly and easily helped us find the perfect house for our family's vacation.
- Marianne
03/16- We have stayed in this house three times, and it's always great!! We have now rented from your company for years, and you have always been wonderful!! We take an annual girls' trip with sisters, mothers, and a niece. One time, bc of snow, the owners put us in a different house, and took us up the mountain! As we say, you could have said, "sorry for your luck" and sent us home. That is why we continue using Escape to Blue Ridge! So, thank you, and once again, everything was great!!

From start to finish, you answered all my questions, took care of my needs, and made me feel very comfortable renting with you. Thank you so much for all your help during this trip!
- Shalonda
3/18 - It had plenty of parking and it was easy to get to and it had so many extras - like the sound bars on the TV's - clearly the owners did not spare any expense - the furniture was very nice. I've used your company many times for family getaways. This was a girls trip and my first time making the arrangements. Everyone was very happy with the cabin. That's a hard bill to fill with 10 women.
