Beautiful Blue Ridge Sunrise

Sitting atop a mountain ridge, our home rewards us with panoramic vistas, breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, and a blessed peaceful refuge for which we are so grateful

Time for Sprucing up the Cabins!

We always look forward to this time of year when we get to stay in our cabins in order to experience what our guests experience, as well as to make sure they have all the luxurious accoutrements that we like to provide.  We have the passion to create a luxury mountain escape, and with the snow and cold temps this week, it truly was a picturesque wintry scene from out of a book.



In addition to our cabin maintenance "retreat" this week, the regional offices of Starbucks' Coffee have planned their Corporate Retreat to be held in Fallen Timber Lodge and Riverview Lodge, just up the river from The River's Edge.  We will be catering that event both Wednesday and Thursday for 10 guests.  Our river cabins are the perfect setting for business retreats and corporate team-building, and when the event can be catered, it allows more time to focus on meetings, projects, and team-building.  I look forward to serving our Starbucks' guests this week!

Glowing Comments from our Guests




We received a most thoughtful email sent from our guests who stayed at Outlaw Ridge during the Christmas and New Years Holidays.  Our staff works hard every day of the year to gain rewarding comments such as these.  We so appreciate all the thoughtful comments from our guests, and this particular email was worth publishing.  We love doing what we do - providing and maintaining luxurious accommodations in the North Georgia Mountains that are second to none in the Blue Ridge, GA area.



Morning Gary and Lissa!

I am back in the office today and I know how Cinderella must have felt after the ball ended.  Our stay last week at Outlaw Ridge was like being in a fairy tale.  The accommodations and the area in general far surpassed our expectations.  My husband and I have stayed at 5-star resorts in California, Europe and the Caribbean and we both agree that Outlaw Ridge was definitely in that league and beyond!  We were so impressed by the attention to detail in every area – from the positioning of the cabin to take in the incredible views, to the well stocked kitchen, to the wonderfully comfortable bedding and furniture.  In addition, the place was meticulously clean.  All in all – a great week of luxurious relaxation for our family.  We are already checking our calendars to plan a return trip!

Thanks for everything and Happy New Year,

The Aregoods

The first snow of 2010 in the North Georgia Mountains!



What a beautiful winter snowy scene of Lake Blue Ridge and the North Georgia Mountains!  I know our weekend guests enjoyed themselves immensely with the true cabin experience - beautiful snowy scenes, blazing fire in the fireplace, snuggling up and relaxing, creating lasting memories in truly luxurious North Georgia Mountain Cabin Rentals.

The kids enjoyed sledding down the driveway - a sledder's paradise indeed.



As beautiful and novel as the snow was, we most certainly look forward to warmer temperatures this week as we start back to our homeschool co-op, continue teaching piano lessons, and catering a corporate retreat for two days at two of our river cabins, Fallen Timber Lodge and Riverview Lodge.
