Booby was very welcoming and helpful. He let me know ahead of time the weather conditions and what to expect once we arrived to the area and made us feel right at home. He gave me some family- friendly suggestions on things to do in the area and answered all my questions. The cabin was perfect for our group of 14 and stocked with everything you would need for a getaway in the mountains.

My family and I had a WONDERFUL stay at Bobby's Laurel Lodge in Sky Valley! It was exactly what we were looking for and more! The house was just as it is pictured if not better! In addition to the house itself Bobby was very accommodating to any questions that we had! Everything you need and more is there! We also had access to the Sky Valley Resort which was beautiful! Spending the afternoon by the pool with the sunshine and view of surrounding mountains was something us Chicagoans do not get very often! Also plenty of places to hike around the area, whether you are looking for mountains, waterfalls, gorges, or more, you will not be disappointed!!! Would highly recommend and would stay again ! Thanks Bobby for sharing your home!

Awesome cabin with everything you could need. Very spacious and plenty of room for a family to spread out. We enjoyed everything about Laurel Lodge. It is tucked up in the hills with plenty of tree cover to enjoy the outdoor living even on a hot summer day. I would recommend this to anyone and we will definitely be back!

Bobby's cabin was perfect for our family wedding weekend in Franklun, NC. Our extended family of ten had plenty of room. The large outside deck was a perfect get together spot. I highly recommend the cabin!

What a beautiful cabin! We had 13 people stay there (6 adults and 7 teenagers) and everyone had space and loved it. It was comfortable and had everything we needed except for food, which we bought ourselves on the way in at Wal Mart. The property is private and in a great location to do lots of fun things like snow tubing, which is only 10 minutes away and totally worth it! Bobby was very friendly and informative and we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you!

Very enjoyable and comfortable cabin

Bobby is an awesome guy and his home is everything you could ever wish for

We had an amazing time at the Sparrow's Rest! Pamela was a great host and she worked hard (and stayed up late!) to help us get our vacation booked after some issues with the site. We were so happy to be able to come back to Sky Valley again and actually enjoyed our time more than we had in the timeshares. The private patio downstairs is amazing, we enjoyed spending our mornings out there enjoying the view with our coffee. We built a fire in the fire pit and roasted marshmallows. We stayed in the 2nd room at the end of the hall and the bed was so comfortable we had a hard time getting out of it! And the Serta pillow,

We had a great time during our stay (again!) at Sparrow's Rest. Pam & David are great hosts and make you feel more like family than a visitor. Their deck view is one of the best around! We love staying here and I'm sure it won't be the last!

Pam and David's private suite was immaculate and charming! The stunning views of Sky Valley and the pristine golf courses are amongst the wonderful and scenic views we awoke to every day! Pam greeted us and made sure we were comfortable! This charming 2 bedroom 2 bathroom, and living area were perfect for our short celebratory stay! The pictures don't measure up to how charming their place is! My husband and I love every moment! So much so, we extended our stay by another day! Just 10 miles from Highland, NC, we had the best time as we crossed back and forth between two states going hiking to various waterfalls (Georgia & North Carolina) and the best hospitality one could ask for! The most relaxing and comfortable stay we've had in a while! 5 stars!!!!

Sparrow's Rest is a beautiful retreat in Sky Valley with excellent hosts and a very warm, comfortable 2 bedroom suite. We stayed only one night, but wish it could have been longer!

Me and my wife went there for a birthday weekend and it was absolutely beautiful! The walk to the waterfall is a must! The whole resort is absolutely amazing! Looking forward to going back over the holidays!

Pamela was an outstanding host. The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Would definitely stay here again!

Pamela's place was FANTASTIC. It was a beautiful drive into their neighborhood and their house has a huge wraparound porch that has great views of the golf course and mountains. The interior or the suite was lovely. Each room was impeccable, the beds were super comfortable and warm, and my friend and I felt very relaxed and cozy. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area- I'm hoping I can return with my husband in the near future!

Great place to spend a nice and cozy trip with friends or family! Everything was perfect!

This little cottage in the mountains was everything I wanted to bring in the New Year. It was cute and cozy, and Barbara made sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable. I absolutely loved our stay there and would recommend it to anyone who wanted a quick getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The home was exactly as described and photographed. It was spacious, charming, clean and had all of the amenities of home, with a gorgeous mountain view. Our hosts were very communicative, easy to reach and responsive. The area is peaceful and beautiful, perfect for a relaxing retreat. The weather was mild, so we were comfortable while ice skating outdoors, exploring the charming Highlands downtown area and hiking the Bartram trail. So much to do in this area and it's rare to find such a nice vacation home for rent during the winter months. My husband and I frequently visit this area in summer and winter and I highly recommend this cottage and the hosts, you won't find better in the area.

This house is centrally located in Sky Valley. It is within easy access to Chatooga River rafting, nearby zip lining, shopping and activities in Highlands, NC, tennis and golf in Sky Valley, Annie's Cafe and Bella's Junction Cafe, waterfalls and hiking trails. Barbara was very helpful with questions and requests that I had. Barbara, as well as her husband Jack, were delightful and easy to work with.

What a great place! The home was inviting and cozy. It had all the comforts of home...washer, dryer, coffee maker, dishes, etc....everything that we needed! The hosts added little personal touches throughout the home...family photos, birdhouses for guests to sign...we felt like WE were part of the family! :) And the outdoor scenery was gorgeous! The home was centrally located to many attractions. We went zip-lining and went the the local art gallery, the Bascom. We will DEFINITELY rent this home again. Can't wait!!

Barbara and Jack were absolutely wonderful. Their home was adorable and in a fantastic location. We really like Sky Valley, GA! They greeted us with open arms and were incredibly kind. We would go back in a heartbeat!!

Beautiful and cost cottage. Everything was as described and Barbara went that extra step in every way to make us comfortable with little thoughtful touches all around the cottage. Convinient location great hikes loads of information in the cottage too.

Great cabin, much nicer than the pictures, would definitely stay again

The place is amazing! It was exactly what we needed while attending a nearby wedding. So easy to get out for a hike and/or run, and the porch is a perfect place to relax and find some peace and quiet!

David and his wife were great hosts and very informative about the property as well as the surrounding area. The place is as described, clean, and well stocked including complimentary bananas and bagels. I would certainly recommend this place for anyone looking in the sky valley area.

Tom was great. Easy communication leading up to check-in. Took the time to meet us at the house and walk us through the details and answer any questions. Location is great, with a beautiful view. House was very clean and has a warm, relaxing feel to it.

Thomas' place was fantastic! We were in town for a wedding and it couldn't have been a better place to stay. Would highly recommend.

Thomas and Judy's cabin is absolutely beautiful. The attention to detail that they showed is very evident in the coziness and homeyness of their house. It is more spacious than it appears in the pictures and was extremely clean. They provided us with a gift basket, notebook about the area, and brochures of their favorite spots in town. Our travel plans were unexpectedly delayed, and Thomas was nothing but accommodating. My family and I wanted to buy the house before our stay was up!

How lucky we were to stay at Tom's Sky Valley Home! Two families shared the space with plenty of room indoors and out. Comfortable, clean, well appointed, and a ton of natural light indoors with plenty of outdoor sitting as well. Tom was very responsive to our messages and needs as we were exploring our options and planning our trip. He also met us at the house, provided a great orientation to home and place, and is just a genuinely kind hearted person. To top it off, he and his wife assembled a welcome gift basket that went above and beyond what may be expected! Sky Valley itself is a great location if you want to engage in the beautiful outdoors, and we look forward to returning!

We really enjoyed our time in Sky Valley. The house was spotless and exceeded our expectations. We were impressed by our hosts. They provided a detailed tour and gave us a gift basket to boot! It is certainly refreshing to meet such great people. We will be back!

Thomas was great host

Tom was there upon our arrival greeting us and showing us around his wonderful house! First of all, Tom is a great host and he showed us everything so we felt extremely comfortable in his home. The house is even better than we expected! So beautifully furnished with all the comforts you could want including very comfy beds!!! The kitchen is very well stocked and we cooked all our meals there. One of the most lovely surprises was the gift basket that Tom and his wife presented to us upon our arrival. It was filled with awesome treats! Our favorite place to spend time was on his wonderful deck where we could watch sunrises and sunsets! His place is close to great hiking. We highly recommend this perfect getaway!

Great little cabin! I will definitely be going back!

We enjoyed our stay here for two nights. Host was unobtrusive, yet very helpful when needed. The place was clean and just like the photos. Nice touches from Kyle when we arrived to make us feel comfy and welcome!

If you are looking for a secluded vacation in the outdoors, this place is perfect. Everything you need, right at your fingertips. The view is amazing, the air is clean and no one to bother you. The cabin is very cozy and comfortable, it has a lovely touch of home to it. If you drive 15 minutes up the mountain you will find Highlands. It is a small town with great food and a lot of things to do. I highly recommend staying with Kyle. Anything we needed he was right there to help us.

The host was very communicative and flexible with arrival time.

This house is great position in the scaly moutain, so my family felt really happy and comfortable. The best thing is kyle and his family. All are very kind and have good manner. My daughter asked for me 'One more time in kyle' house' as soon as arrived my home. I really appreciate Kyle and his family!

Kyle was an excellent host, very polite and helpful with tips on dining and the area, will definitely go back again in the future

What a great experience!! Kyle and his wife were so accommodating, they allowed us to stay in short notice and even left a welcome present when we got there :) highly recommended!

Everything was more than amazing. This place really is a hidden gem (which I think is the point) - Kyle and his wife are really cool people, and their property has waterfalls, trails, chickens, etc. The apartment itself is amazing as well - really well designed and super comfortable. Definitely bookmarking this one!

Everything was just as Kyle has described. It was a wonderful quiet mountain getaway and in a fantastic location. Kyle was quick to respond to questions and helpful. I would definitely go back.

Great location in Sky Valley. Ellie was a great host! My family enjoyed our time at this house while we were in town for a wedding.

An outstanding home for a large family or group. Two master suites with incredible views start the day on the right foot. The area is breath taking with an outstanding waterfall 5 minutes away.
