Reel Medicine - Trout Fishing Cabin on Big Creek

REEL MEDICINE is just what the doctor ordered for a get away from the hectic lives we all live. Reel Medicine is a very private and mostly secluded Blue Ridge cabin rental that sits just feet away from the banks of rushing Big Creek. As you get to the property you will notice the coziness that meets you as you cross the beautiful "Old Covered Bridge." The cabin is tucked under a great canopy of large hemlock, pine, and soaring hardwoods that provide shade as you fish.

On your way to Reel Medicine, you will pass Lake Blue Ridge, for boating and fishing, drive along the upper Toccoa River, for trout fishing (in the trout capital of Georgia) and tubing, and Shallowford Bridge, which is a staple in the community that is known for having great adventure in the area. There is Shallowford Bridge tube rentals and Toccoa Valley Campground for tubing, both within 5-7 minutes from the cabin. You will also pass the famed Toccoa Riverside Restaurant, great for outdoor dining on the banks of the Toccoa River. Also, close by the cabin is the Benton McKaye hiking trail, the largest spur of The Appalachian Trail, Toccoa River Swinging Bridge, and several waterfall hiking trails, including Sea Creek Falls, Fall Branch Falls, and Amicalola Falls (a 729 foot tall waterfall). This cabin is in the "Aska Adventure Area" and is right in the middle of all of the action of outdoor fun.

The cabin itself is very inviting once you walk thru the doors. Upon entering you will see the vaulted ceilings in the living room and dining room, providing an expansive feel, a very warm and welcoming living area, with a floor to ceiling rock real wood burning fireplace, and comfortable living room furniture. To the right you will find an eight person dining table and a lovely sitting area, perfect for book reading and having some alone time while taking in the view of the back yard.

The back yard also has its very own walking trail with a foot bridge, which is well-lit for evening strolls with your honey. Gaze at the small pasture just across the creek, and let your worries wash away knowing your rental is secluded from curious eyes. After a long day of fishing, soak your bones in the hot tub on the screened-in porch before turning in for a relaxing night of sleep.

Important Info on Big Creek - Reel Medicine's creek is a native trout stream, and is one of the great trout habitat's in all of North Georgia. The trout flourish in the cool, oxygen-rich waters.
