The cabin was wonderful. We felt at home the minute we arrived and missed it as soon as we left. The peace and quiet with the river sounds were exactly what we needed.

Lofty Pines is a home away from home. The cabin is cozy inside and out.You are surrounded by nature. The sound of the river relaxes you as you enjoy coffee or read a good book. You will be impressed by the decor which is not overdone but perfect. Make Lofty Pines your vacation get away just leave a few weeks for others.

I only called the team once during our stay and it was for assistance with location of a local tube drop off area. The team member was a huge help and seemed very knowledgable of the area.

Recently spent the weekend at Lofty Pines. The cabin is amazing and the sound of the stream running is so relaxing. Even though it was cold we still found ourselves going outside to just relax to the soothing sounds.

The property was exactly as pictured. There are multiple outdoor relaxation areas by the creek and by the fire pit area. Lots of outdoor seating. Loved the hammock by the water and seeing lightning bugs every night. Place was very clean, loved listening to the Cartecay river at night. The landscaping and outdoor lighting is gorgeous. Blue Sky mountain has always been very responsive, personable, and professional. We've used them several times now. Beds were very comfy, but firm. I like a firm mattress. The shower was amazing. The decor is gorgeous and we appreciated the card and board games located in the tv cabinet. This cabin is private but there are neighbors. They aren't in visual range, but they are there. The upside to that: Roads were easily traveled and not so scary. There was a very friendly, sweet neighbor dog that came over to say hello around dinner time each evening. We were glad to see her, as we were missing our own fur babies. We still felt like we had our own private oasis.
