Fantastic! New & clean!

This was our second stay. It’s a lovely modern cabin vibe with great amenities and close to Mercier Orchards. Stays high on our list!

Our reply

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for coming back to stay with us! It means a lot that you chose our cabin for a second visit, and we’re so happy it continues to be a favorite. We love that you enjoy the modern cabin feel, amenities, and convenient location near Mercier Orchards. We’ll look forward to welcoming you back for visit number three! And if you ever want to try a different getaway, we’d love to host you at one of our homes in Chattanooga or Spring City too.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Incredibly clean and spacious with more than ample amenities. Kitchens and bathrooms were well equipped and the house seemed to have every item we seemed to need during our stay. The location is nice and private and only 15 min to downtown blue ridge and McCaysville. 5/5 would absolutely love to visit another time.

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the home and appreciated all the little details that make it feel comfortable and well equipped. We love that you were able to enjoy the privacy while still being just a short drive from Blue Ridge and McCaysville. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back for another Blue Ridge getaway! And if you ever want to explore somewhere new, we’d love to host you at one of our homes in Chattanooga or Spring City too.

As soon as we walked in we decided we wanted to stay an extra night. Forget school, forget work, we were right at home. The place is absolutely beautiful and the cleanest we ever experienced for an air bnb. We came with our fam of 4, our pup and had our other fam of 3 join us. The privacy for each fam was perfect and also mended itself to time for the kids to chill and adults to hang. The outside fireplace vibes with the tv and trees in the background was truly serene and surreal. The place is also located just 15

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for this incredible review! We absolutely love hearing that you walked in and immediately wanted to stay an extra night. “Forget school, forget work” made us smile because that’s exactly the kind of feeling we hope our homes create! We’re so glad the setup worked so well for both families, giving everyone their own space while still having plenty of room to gather together. And the outdoor fireplace with the TV and trees in the background really is one of our favorite spots too. It sounds like you made the most of it! We’re also happy you enjoyed the peaceful neighborhood, convenient location, and easy access to Blue Ridge. Thank you for bringing your pup along and for such a thoughtful recommendation. We’ll absolutely look forward to welcoming your families back, whether you return here or decide to explore one of our other homes in Blue Ridge, Chattanooga, or Spring City!

My family vacationed over the Labor Day holiday weekend to celebrate birthdays and to experience the Blue Ridge area. The Cedar Grove cabin was the cleanest VRBO I’ve ever rented and very well stocked. Our host Beth was very attentive and I felt like she genuinely wanted us to enjoy our stay. The home is beautifully decorated, open, roomy, and has beautiful views of the wooded lot. The location was easy access to the surrounding area. We would stay here again!

Our reply

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for staying with us! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and found everything nice and comfortable. We’d love to have you back again sometime!

This was truly a beautiful Airbnb stay! The property looked exactly as pictured and was nestled in a peaceful, serene setting. The outdoor spaces were especially exceptional, featuring an open upper patio with comfortable seating and a TV, as well as a cozy lower-level screened in patio complete with a hot tub and porch swing. We found ourselves spending much of our time outside, enjoying the fresh air, listening to the sounds of nature, and simply soaking in the relaxing atmosphere. It was the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Our reply

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for this beautiful review! We’re thrilled to hear that the home provided the peaceful and relaxing getaway you were hoping for. It means so much to know the property lived up to your expectations and that the outdoor spaces became such a special part of your stay. We love that you were able to slow down, enjoy the fresh air, and spend quality time soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The outdoor spaces were designed with connection and relaxation in mind, so hearing that you enjoyed the patio, screened-in porch, hot tub, and swing bed truly makes us smile. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back for another relaxing escape at this home or one of our other North Ridge Escapes properties!

Beautiful place, well laid out, all the amenities that you’d need, along with comfortable beds and very nice linens. The host is extremely responsive— we had one minor maintenance issue and it was taken care of immediately. Literally the only thing that was not 5 star was the amount of road noise that could be heard from the home. It was sort of disappointing because there’s an awesome view and the outside seating areas were gorgeous.

Our reply

from North Ridge Escapes: Thank you so much for your thoughtful and honest review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the beautiful home, comfortable beds, thoughtful amenities, and outdoor spaces. We’re also glad we were able to respond quickly and take care of the maintenance item during your stay. We appreciate you sharing your feedback about the road noise as well. The convenient location is one of the things many guests love about the home, providing easy access to the area while still offering beautiful views and inviting spaces to relax. We understand that guests looking for a more secluded mountain retreat may have different preferences, and we appreciate you highlighting that for future visitors. We’re so glad you had a wonderful trip and enjoyed your stay overall. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back again, whether it’s to this home or one of our other North Ridge Escapes properties!

Spectacular! Every part of our stay, the house is beyond stunning. Luxury from the beds, linen, furniture, amenities, to the amazing hot tub. If you are bringing a pet - they have done the utmost to provide comfortable blankets etc. We can’t wait to come back.

This home exceeded every expectation and looked exactly like the photos. It was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully set up down to the last detail — from the cookware to the trash liners, everything you’d need was right there. Even the beds were incredibly comfortable! We stayed here to celebrate my 57th birthday with a few close friends, and everyone was blown away. Hands down the best Airbnb we’ve ever booked — this might just become our go-to spot for future retreats.

Beth's Airbnb was an incredible place to stay. The home was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed to feel comfortable. The location was great, and one of our favorite parts was relaxing on the deck, it was so peaceful and the perfect place to unwind. I would highly recommend staying here and would absolutely book this home again the next time we're in the area.

Peaceful and perfect! This is the second time we have stayed at a North Ridge Escapes home and it was just as lovely as the first time! The home has literally everything you need and then some and is beautifully decorated and kept. We especially loved the porches and spent many peaceful hours in the swing bed. We also love this calm and beautiful, safe neighborhood which is close to Blue Ridge and great for morning or evening walks. Beth is always wonderful at communication and the whole stay was everything we had hoped.
