We had a girls trip this weekend to Skyline Lodge. One of the reviews I read mentioned that the drive up to the cabin was terrifying and I thought they were just not used to driving in the mountains. The drive up to the cabin is terrifying! Parking is very difficult around the cabin (we had three vehicles). Aside from the last quarter mile of the drive, the cabin is lovely. We did have some trouble with the basement level being very cold, but there are instructions on how to remedy the situation. The hot tub was great, the kitchen had everything we needed, the view was incredible. We’ll definitely be back!

The cabin was beautiful. Everything you will need for a quiet intimate getaway.

The booking process all the way to checking out was so smooth and easy. The cabin was absolutely gorgeous. The only thing that scared us was the steep driveway. We had an amazing time.

Very relaxing with long range mountain views. Clean property with everything we needed. Hot tub was clean and lots of fun games.

We had an incredible stay! The house and property were incredibly clean and organized, well decorated, and peaceful. The cabin looks just like the pictures. Helpful Tips: 1) Cell service goes out about 45 minutes before the cabin, and you do need to print/screen shot the directions provided to you after you book to get to the location. The cabin itself has great Wifi! 2) The roads to the cabin & up the driveway are steep. Definitely suggest making the drive up in daylight for the first time. 3) The kitchen is fully stocked with most needed appliances, dishes, and silverware. You will want to pack (or pick up about an hour before arrival, before you'd start the journey up the mountain): crock pot (if you want one), bottled water, food, spices, cooking spray, big coffee or hot chocolate mugs if you like big ones! 4) Suggested meals: We brought a crock pot and made a lot of soups/chili/etc. which was lovely in the cabin environment and served our group. Oatmeal, pancake mix, S'mores, hot chocolate were also good choices! 5) Cabin was stocked with flashlights, batteries, dish detergent, towels! 6) Other suggested items: There are plentiful blankets, but bring more if you want or have a big group! Bring laundry detergent if you plan to do laundry. We couldn't burn fire outside do to a fire ban with dry weather this trip, but duraflame logs would be good to bring for that. Thank you for a great stay!

Beautiful accommodations and amazing view, however the driveway is very steep, narrow and intimidating.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Removing the built-up leaves made it a bit easier getting up the steep incline of the driveway. It is a beautiful place.

Wonderful views - great hot tub and many terrific amenities.

We had a wonderful stay and the management was first class. I would highly recommend this property and this property manager. I will use again.

No water for 4 of our 6 day stay!

Beautiful place to stay, love the view from every angle of the house.

Skyline Lodge was the perfect place to stay for a panorama view of the Blue Ridge mountains. Sunsets were breathtaking from our balcony. Kristy and JT made us feel at home and even had a nice welcome package for us. The beds were very comfortable. The rooms were very spacious. Everything we needed for a stay was provided. With 3 large bedrooms, playroom for kids, hot tub and firepit, this is perfect for a large family or friend get togethers!!

Awesome views

My family and I stayed for 3 nights during spring break 2023. Everything was great...exceeded my expectations even with great reviews as one could never be 100% sure that what you read is what you get...but grateful and happy to say this one is true to its excellent reviews. Thanks to owner and management of this property...we are definitely coming back to same property ..that is how much my family loved it..

We vacation to Blue Ridge annually and have stayed in several different cabins. Of course each location is always a unique experience. This cabin did have the best overall view from the panoramic windows on the main level. You really felt like you were in the mountains. It was very private, with only a handful of nearby cabins. That being said, the drive up the mountain could be challenging for some depending on the weather as there were some steep grades. I have a 2 wheel drive Silverado, and only had tire slipping during rainy conditions. Despite that, it is worth the experience. EBR was very friendly and quickly resolved our minor issues regarding trash bags and gas fireplace issues. If your looking for a secluded mountain get away then definitely consider this cabin. Keep in mind, it is about 30 minutes to groceries and downtown, and about 15 minutes to a convenience store. It really wasn’t an issue for us though as we brought a good supply of food/essentials with us.

Fantastic

Beautiful, well equipped cabin, very enjoyable stay. We stayed a week and the cabin had everything to keep you entertained. You truly feel immersed in the mountains. Last part of the drive to get to cabin is steep at first pass (Michiganer speaking) but managable. Definitely will be going back, the area is peaceful and quiet.

Place was beautiful, safe, and clean! Best view outsidr of a cabin that we have stayed at.

Great cabin in an amazing location. We wanted a getaway from crowds and people in general and this place did not disappoint us!

This cabin is BEAUTIFUL and very SPACIOUS! The view is SPECTACULAR! It was very very clean! It has everything you need to cook. All you need to bring is the food. The cabin is very nicely decorated with bear theme. BEWARE: although it says paved roads. There are many steep roads and dangerous roads. This cabin is the highest one in that area and it is VERY SCARY getting to and from. Once we arrived, we NEVER left until it was time to leave. It was a very SCARY experience for me and my family. We weren't able to fully relax due to being worried about leaving. The listing says that you are near many things. However, you are 25-30 minutes away from anything. My communication with Blue Ridge was overall good. (although at times I did get the voicemail instead of a live person, although it was during business hours) I think someone should answer 24/7 at all times due to any emergency. However, I was contacted prior to my arrival time to advise their was an issue with some pipes and that the water might be off when we arrive. That was nice to have a heads up about the situation. When we arrived the water was not working., I called and it got fixed. However, after 1 few hours when my son went to shower, the water wasn't working. I had to call twice (sometime after 9:00 P.M.) and spoke to the answering service. I got a call back from Holly (the manager) sometime after 10:30 P.M. and she advised she was trying to get in contact with the property manager but he wasn't answering. She tried her best to help me but it was out of her hands. We didn't get water until sometime in the middle of the night. Therefore, 2 out of 4 family members were unable to shower. The next morning Holly contacted me to see if it was working. Other than that, we enjoyed the relaxing time! Although I couldn't go out to celebrate my birthday, we celebebrated the best we could being together. Overall, I would recommend this cabin for the view, the space, the theme, how clean it was. However, do your research (which I did not) about the distance and roads leading to this cabin. I hope this helps!

The drive to the house was a white knuckler so we were glad we had gone to the grocery store prior. It would be nice if hand soap was provided at the kitchen sink. But...the view was great, felt like we were in a tree house. Deer loved passing through the backyard. The kitchen is a dream especially for folks like us that love to cook. Thinking about a return visit next year.

A wonderful location in the mountains! Very clean and fully equipped. We really enjoyed the entire property! If we make it back to Blue Ridge again, we would definitely try and book this cabin. Made lots of great memories here.

The house was sparkling clean, and the view of the mountain ridge was spectacular. Would love to stay again

Great! but isolated.

Loved the serenity of the location. Amazing setting.

We loved this cabin! It was the perfect size for our family of 4. My young girls loved playing with the Barbie house downstairs. The views from the deck were amazing to wake up to, and the sun sets right behind the mountains. Fire pit was great too for s’mores! The location is a bit of a drive (25 minutes or so) from downtown Blue Ridge, but we didn’t really mind it much. There was plenty to do nearby, and the drop in river spot was one of our favorite activities!

I have booked many mountain cabin getaways. Without hesitation I can say that this was by far the best. Cleanliness is at the top of my concerns. Followed by location and amenities. Skyline Lodge exceeded hopes and expectations in all categories. Do you look at this pictures and think- is it just good photography or is it really this nice? Let me fill you in- it's even BETTER! This cabin has the most amazing views- from all 3 decks! I don't think I saw a speck of dust or dirt when we arrived. The kitchen was stocked with anything and everything we needed (probably could have prepared Thanksgiving dinner there!). Mattress were super comfy, linens were definitely above average. We loved the remoteness of the the cabin, but also appreciated the fact that we could be to the grocery store, town of Blue Ridge, Walmart, or a number of other places, in about 30 minutes. It was the best of both worlds. Our favorite places that we would recommend checking out while there are: 1) Mercier Orchards 2) Iron Bridge General Store and Cafe (amazing breakfast!!) 3) Tupelo Tea (we hit it 3 times in 6 days!) 4) Sweet Shoppe of the South 5) Blue Ridge Adventure Wear 6) A bit of a drive but SO worth it- Aviator Cafe 7) Wonderful pull off for river fun on Aska Rd 8) Lake Blue Ridge- our 2 teen girls especially loved this. We hiked the loop (short and easy with nice views), had a picnic on the beach, played in the water. 9) Fall Branch Falls 10) Long Branch Loop- nice hike, not too much in the way of views, but beautiful nature. 11) Sea Creek Falls- this was a favorite. Short hike to the falls. It has a wonderful pool at the bottom that our girls enjoyed cooling off in. This felt much more like a "locals" spot when we were there. We absolutely loved it. Here's my take away- The town of Blue Ridge (and surrounding areas) are filled with yummy food, fun shops, breathtaking views, and warm, friendly people. The cabin couldn't not have been better. There is not one thing I can think of that needs to change or improve. We cannot wait to book another stay. I will recommend this area and property to family and friends.

The view from the cabin was breathtaking. The accommodations were spot on. Definitely will be returning.

The house is amazing

It was perfect. The home is spacious and well equipped for the short stay. The drive is at least 20 minutes to a store... so get your groceries on the way. Would have been helpful to know this. The sunsets were great. Truly enjoyed the solitude.

Once you clear the gate, sign says "dangerous drive enter at your own risk." This should be noted in the cabins listing. I would have taken my truck there.

Property was very nice. Plenty of room for everyone. You can't beat the views from everywhere in the home. Location is further out of Blueridge than suggested in the add but not bad. If your from flat country Bring your driving skills and nerves for the last half mile of the drive lol.
