We enjoyed our stay so much! The house was well stocked with the common things needed. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed all the eclectic decor. The drive is pretty steep but its the mountains! Access to the river is right down the gravel drive but you couldn't really get in the water right there but it was nice sitting on the back porch drinking coffee in the morning listening to the river rush by. I saw two deer in the drive this morning. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Birdsong is a beautifully nestled cabin with the sound of running water all around. The space is filled with sweet and intentional touches of bird nests and whimsical art. Every nook has something special to see. The views are spectacular from the porch and the sound of the water is great for reading a book in the morning sunshine. The upstairs bedroom is so cool. And the queen bedroom off the back porch greets you with literal birds singing in the morning. The space has everything we were looking for. Cozy, comfortable, safe, and well loved. We will be back with the whole family next time.
Absolutely gorgeous cabin very close to Blue Ridge with great views of the river. You can tell the owners took great care in decorating as there is something interesting in every corner. Owner very rrsponsive and has most everything you need there. Looking forward to coming back
This was the perfect place for our family to celebrate Christmas. It is the most beautiful and artistic home, well appointed and filled with character. There are two fireplaces - one in the family room and another in the kitchen/dining room that make the whole house cozy and warm. The fire pit, rushing creek below and multi level deck make the most of the lovely grounds. The host was extremely thoughtful about the check-in process as we received our check-in information a few days beforehand and they even decorated the cabin for Christmas! A truly special stay that enhanced our time together, we will definitely book this property again. 5 stars!!!
Stayed 9 nights and had a great time. Cabin was well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Location was convenient to Blue Ridge for groceries, gas and restaurants.
Watched deer playing across the creek several mornings, with birds and squirrels around the cabin throughout the day.
Very cozy cabin tucked in the woods. Very eclectic, homey feel. Owners communicate well. Cabin has everything you need. The back porch is amazing and peaceful, with the sound of the creek below.
This property is gorgeous. The owner’s have put so many neat touches around the entire property. The house is well stocked with games, books, linens, trash bags, etc. If we couldn’t find something in the kitchen, tye laundry room had it. It was nice to have 2 refrigerators as well! Communication with the owner was a breeze. We wish that there was an easier access to the creek, but that’s nothing the owners have control over :). We basically lived on the screened in porch with Day bed. The property was in a great location, & quiet. Hope to come back soon!
The inside of the cabin was clean and nice, however, the outside around the deck and needs some work. The location is good, however, there are no views of the mountains. There is a little creek/river within a short walking distance but there is no way to access it as there are cabins and private property along the banks. However, we did enjoy our stay as it was relaxing and that's what we were looking for.
Beautiful location, conveniently located just a few minutes from Blue Ridge and McCaysville, Ga.
The interior is clean and works well. The screened back porch is very nice over looking the trees and Creek— beautiful and quiet for reading! The surrounding deck is in need of replacement.
The cabin is lovely! Felt welcoming and warm! 5 star. The beds were comfortable! The oven may need to be calibrated. It seemed like cooking times were a lot longer.
Property was close to town but felt secluded. The setting was gorgeous and the cabin was cozy. The decor was intriguing. Lots of antiques and ephemoria. We had scavenger hunts and a photo contest of the most interesting items. The town was charming. We made lots of memories and highly recommend this property.
Birdsong was perfect! Close to town so easy car ride to Blue Ridge shops and Restaurants and Mercier Orchard. Cozy cabin was perfect for staying in and playing games. Plenty of room, yet not so big that you don't visit with your family and friends.

About the host
Hosted by Tom Piacentini
Here we are with our two beautiful and talented daughters.
We have always dreamed of our own getaway and rented for years. We had ideas of how the experience could be improved and are now giving it a try for ourselves.
Why they chose this property
This was a cabin we saw on the first day looking. It had all the cozy charm we were looking for and incredible potential. We fell in love with it immediately!
What makes this property unique
Off the beaten path but so close to everything. The short gravel road puts you in the middle of the woods where the quite and solitude can be enjoyed.
