Luxury Mountain Retreat with Panoramic Lake & Blue Ridge Views

5 Hikes is an amazing property that surpassed our expectations even after reading all the great reviews. Fantastic views from every room and outdoor space. Loved having 3 master suite all with huge walk in showers. All three floors have their own hvac and thermostat. Angela was great to work with and we will definitely be returning.

Great view!! House has everything you could ever need.

This property is amazing! Will definitely rent again!

This property carries severe operational and safety liabilities. We secured our reservation seven months in advance. Five months later, the host attempted to retroactively enforce a new minimum-stay policy, attempting to extort an additional third night's rental fee outside of our established contract. During the stay itself, the host fabricated an active burglary claim and filed a false police report, resulting in the deployment of a Fannin County Sheriff deputy to the property. The responding officer cleared the scene and verified that zero property damage, theft, or prohibited activities were occurring. The 911 audio and police dispatch CAD logs confirming the host's fabricated report have been secured. We voluntarily vacated the property early strictly due to the physical safety risks created by the host weaponizing local law enforcement against guests.

We had five couples come up for my fiancé's birthday. The cabin exceeded our expectations. We ended up getting snowed in and had to stay a few extra days. The neighbors made sure we were able to get to the store for any items we might have needed, which made our stay even more special. I would rate the cabin a 10 out of 10. It's beautiful, and the scenery is even more breathtaking. Angela made sure to stay in communication with me the entire time.

I have stayed at many short term rentals before. This one was easily the best. Literally everything about this home is perfect. The owner went out of her way to make this stay an exceptional experience. My family had a wonderful and relaxing vacation in a breathtaking location. We would absolutely without a doubt stay here again. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.

From the moment we arrived and opened the door to the incredible amazing view and beautiful home we absolutely enjoyed every moment of our stay. Angela is an incredible host and I would highly recommend this property for family getaways, a retreat or like us a couple who met up with friends and wanted spaciousness.

The house was gorgeous not to mention views. It was very clean, comfortable and spacious for our group weekend get away. We had everything we needed and the host was very nice and responsive to our questions.

We absolutely loved our stay at this home. The location, the amenities and coziness of the home were wonderful. We adored the view. Also the responsiveness of the host was incredible. We will absolutely be back.

The home was beautiful, with amazing views. The host was very responsive. We would love to visit again!

Lovely, well-appointed house with scenic views. Proximity to hiking trails and town of Blue Ridge also a plus. Host was very communicative and responsive. Would definitely return or recommend to others.

We had an amazing family trip to celebrate milestone birthdays for our parents and Thanksgiving. Angela was so helpful and responsive from the start, offering to stock the kitchen with anything that might be missing to prepare a full traditional Thanksgiving meal. The kitchen was so well stocked and everything needed was right there, down to the pie plate. I couldn’t find one thing missing. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated for Christmas, and just as I remembered it from a stay two years ago. The twelve of us were very comfortable in the accommodations and the basement was a hit with our young adult kids.

The home was stunning, cozy and very clean! The pictures do not do it justice and the views are breathtaking. You’ll never want to leave! The host, Angela, always answered our questions and communicated throughout our whole visit. We are already planning another trip to 5 Hikes next year.

This was our book club’s second year in a row to stay at 5-Hikes. The property is great for our group and we had a great time! Plenty of bedroom space and room to spread out. The outdoor fireplace on the deck was our favorite place to hang! Thanks Angela!

5 Hikes is a wonderful place to stay, especially if you want the perfect view for fall colors. The views were absolutely amazing! The house is magnificent, perfect for 3 couples, having 3 master suites on 3 different levels. The fireplaces, porches, balconies give it an unbelievable charm. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and all the added amenities make everything very convenient and enjoyable. The front and back yard scenery can creat the best photo shoots. It was almost magical how beautiful the fall colors were. Angela is a great host and easily contacted if any problems arise. I would highly recommend the house and will be back.

This house is absolutely beautiful with the best views you could ask for. We have rented several properties in Blue Ridge and this by far is 5 stars. Angela (owner) was great with communication and making sure our stay was wonderful! We will be back.

The home and views were spectacular ! We enjoyed our stay so much!

The home and views were absolutely beautiful. There was plenty of room for our entire family of 12, very spacious and beautifully decorated. Angela was great, available for any questions and appreciated her timely and helpful responses. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed and then some. Our entire family very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend!

We had everything we needed! The house was perfect and the view was incredible. The house was beautiful and we loved our stay!

Beautiful home with spectacular mountain views

Perfect home and location for a family trip. Lots of bedrooms. AMAZING view!!! Beautiful decor. Loved having the pool table for the adults and teaching the kids to play shuffleboard. We were about 15mins from everything we wanted to do. Roaming around downtown Blue Ridge was fun, tubing and gem mining were great! Loved that the host put out info for some good hikes. We saw some great waterfalls. Don't forget to stop by Paw Paw's produce and also get some farm fresh eggs at the house on Snake Nation road that you pass on the way in. So good!! Thank you to Angela for always being available for anything we need. Great host!

We rented this house for a Blue Ridge Summer family vacation and it did not disappoint! The moment you walk in you are hit with the best views you have ever seen and the house is absolutely beautiful. It was a clean house and even smelt fresh! Everything we needed was there and the host Angela was very responsive and so sweet!

We had a wonderful time at 5 hikes! There was a total of 13 of us there (6 adults and 7 kids). Even with a larger group we had plenty of space.Here are my highlights - 1) There’s not a better view in blue ridge. Truly stunning! Great porch set up too with a tv so you can hangout, watch the game, and still enjoy the view. 2) The kitchen was extremely well stocked. Everything you can think of you had access to.3) The beds were incredibly comfortable. This is a big one for me… a bad bed can ruin a vacation so it’s always nice to have a good one.4) Bathrooms were large and very clean. Again, another big one for me. We have 4 kids and so trying to get ready for bed/showers in a small bathroom can be frustrating. Didn’t have to worry about this here! 4) Angela (the host) is great. Super accommodating and great with communication.We will certainly be going back!

This is an amazing property and more beautiful in person! Very clean, comfy beds, and well stocked kitchen. Our group of 6 had a wonderful time and hope to return soon. Highly recommend!

There was not one corner of this house that wasn’t beautiful! We took so many pictures and videos because it was truly breathtaking views. From early morning sunrises watching from the bar top table on the outside deck or cozying up to the outdoor fireplaces during the sunsets, being in this home all day was magical. We absolutely loved the space for our big family. There were so many fun places the kids could sleep as well. There was endless entertainment from in the house to a quick drive in any direction. We will definitely be back for another beautiful getaway.

We, and our friends, thoroughly enjoyed staying at your home and exploring the nearby area. What a lovely home that is so well-appointed, comfortable and beautifully decorated. It was a luxury staying at your home and we would highly recommend it to others. Thank you!

5 hikes was even better than in the pictures! We hope we get an opportunity to go back.

This was our third stay in Blue Ridge, and this cabin was by far the best. We loved our stay. The views were breathtaking! It was the perfect space and great location. Everything was just as described and pictured. Very tastefully decorated. The welcome basket was most appreciated. Communication with the property owner was very prompt. We'd love to return one day!

We stayed at this cabin for our annual friend’s trip, and it was absolutely perfect! The house was cozy, well-appointed, and had everything we needed—from a fully stocked kitchen to plenty of extra blankets. The Christmas tree added such a festive touch, making it ideal for our gift exchange and reunion. The hot tub with stunning views was a highlight, and Angela was incredibly responsive and helpful. It truly felt like a home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and hope to return in the future!

This was our 14th fall trip together and it was great! The property is beautiful and had everything we needed. We didn’t even use the outdoor fire pit because the outdoor fireplace on the deck was too inviting! All in all we had a lovely time and would definitely think about returning here next year!

This is our 2nd stay at 5 Hikes, and it was just as amazing as the first time. There is not a detail missed at this property, we are convinced it's the best place in Blue Ridge. They have paved the road up the mountain and it made the drive so much more relaxing and beautiful! The views are always top notch, and so is the hospitality. We will be back!!
