Vacation rentals with a kayak in Union County

My family and I stayed at Gilbert’s cabin for the Christmas Holidays and really enjoyed it. The cabin sits on a large piece of land, so even though there are neighbors it feels very private. It was very quiet and the fire pit outside was the perfect place to stargaze. The cabin is only 10-15 minutes to downtown Blue Ridge and there are also plenty of hikes nearby as well. We would love to come back in the summertime and enjoy the lake!

Wonderful home to escape , bondfire, swimming , hot rob , games , Great place .

Cabin 6 absolutely amazed us! The home was stunning, with an open layout and breathtaking lake views from every window—it felt like pure tranquility. Jennifer warmly greeted us, helped with parking, and even assisted in securing a last-minute boat rental. A tip: let Greg and Jennifer know in advance if you want to rent a pontoon to ensure availability. Greg suggested Marina Station and Hiawassee Brew, and we happily indulged in both. We also ventured to Bell Mountain, and the views of Hiawassee were beyond words—simply awe-inspiring and even tear-jerking. Staying at Tranquille is highly recommended for its serene beauty and thoughtful amenities, ensuring a truly relaxing getaway. It’s a perfect spot to recharge and take in nature’s magic!

First off, Wendy is a spectacular human! She was the sweetest! I messaged her to see if we could check in a little early, not only could we check in early she let us know it was ready before the early check-in! She checked on us to see if we needed anything done around the house, leaves or wanted the Christmas decor down! It was just outstanding and we loved the Christmas decor! The boat dock was so peaceful and was my workout everyday!!! We will be back for sure!! It’s like we are family now!

From the moment we put in our reservation Bobby and Dina made us feel so very welcomed. We truly enjoyed our stay at their beautiful home on the river. The peace and tranquility of the home made it a much needed getaway. I would highly recommend this home to anyone staying in the area. Bobby and Dina were super responsive to any requests we had and made some super recommendations of things in the surrounding are. We rode up on motorcycles and the drive in and driveway were very accessible for us to navigate and park. we will definitely be making this our usual place to stay when we're in the area.

Well stocked, clean and super nice.

This is our second time staying here for new years and it was great as usual. It is very peaceful at this property. Very clean and perfect for our group size. We would stay again.

Shannon was incredibly helpful, communicative, and flexible. Her place was epic, as advertised. 10/10 recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay. From kayaking to sipping coffee on the back porch, it was great. The beds were so comfy, and the kitchen was stocked with all the needs to make it easy to enjoy a cooked meal. We will return!

Jiri’s place is TRULY a find!! Really a place to unwind and experience beautiful solitude. It is fully stocked, well decorated, and thoughtful. And there’s a private waterfall!! It’s so unfortunate that it rained during my stay, because I was really looking forward to the fire pit. I will visit again and again just to get away from the city life. Next time for a week or two!! He gave so many wonderful suggestions that you may have a different experience each time. Simply PERFECT!

I want to give a 10-star rating, but the system only gives me five 🌟. Robin's family is very friendly and knowledgeable. We can talk about all new things together. Their dog is also very friendly and I can't let it go. There are also two cute donkeys on their farm. Every morning when I wake up, I want to say hello to them. In short, I will come here again. It is a quiet, beautiful and charming environment. I wish you all the best!

We spend a few days after Christmas and the place was clean and quiet to relax , we definitely stay here again .

My brother and I treated our mom to a weekend getaway to celebrate her 80th birthday. The “Flying Squirrel” was perfect! Great floor plan, beautiful interior design, comfortable beds, and plenty of thoughtful extras! If you’re looking for a true “get-away-from-it-all”….this is it!

The most perfect place for a relaxed and quiet getaway! My husband and I drove up here from Florida for our honeymoon. It was absolutely beautiful and so comfortable that we felt right at home. We hardly left the cabin, there was plenty to do right there. Canoeing on the lake with our dog was the highlight of the trip. 10/10 would stay again.

We had a wonderful stay, and would rate this as one of the most peaceful, places we have stayed. The home was very clean, modern and had everything we needed and more. The hosts were so amazing and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home- which we absolutely did! I have already recommended this stay to several of my friends and look forward to coming back.

We had a great time on our impromptu trip to the lake. The house was clean and the sunsets were beautiful from the dock.

This AIRBNB is the best we have ever had! The home was beautiful, clean, well-stocked with everything - kitchen, bed and bathrooms. The game room was loads of fun! The hot tub was wonderful. The view was SPECTACULAR!!! It was a perfect trip for all of us and we had a marvelous time! Everyone agreed it was a perfect weekend! We will book this again!!

This cabin met all our expectations for our stay in Blairsville! It was exactly as described and shown in the pictures, so we were not disappointed in the least. It is a very well maintained, clean and cozy property, provided all the necessities for our stay, and most importantly (for us!) was that they accepted our 2 small dogs who ALWAYS travel with us!! So finding a pet-friendly place is critical. I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the location of the cabin for convenience to everything we needed and the overall quality of the place itself and the hosts. They communicated throughly prior to arrival, answered all my questions in advance, and checked in on us during our stay. Would highly recommend to other travelers!!!

Nice little cabin for a couples weekend getaway. If getting away from everything is your goal then this cabin will do the trick. Enjoyed the fireplace and just taking in the weekend.

The house was so beautiful and we felt so at home. We had some smell issues in the bathroom and it was after hours and they sent someone right away. We also were SO thrilled that it was decorated beautifully for Christmas!

Such a perfect weekend getaway. Cozy cabin with everything you need. Great location and beautiful surroundings. 30 min drive to Helen, GA. Wendy was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Looking forward to returning to this cabin very soon.

There are a couple extra hoops to jump through with this management company. We rent often and seldom have issues. Lots of texts, calls and emails warning me to sign their contract or they would cancel the rental. I was traveling and had paid. We went in person and all went well. The property was super and once we got into a groove, Southern Comfort was super as well.

Beautiful and comfortable home. We were able to easily prepare meals with provided kitchenware. Loved the two levels of porches that included nooks with fireplaces. So cozy during a light rain. And the hot tub worked well and was used often. The children spent lots of time in the game room and with the games on the porches. Sunrise each morning over the pond was amazing. And we spent lots of time canoeing and playing along the pond's edge. This is a perfect family listing!!
