What are your favorite romantic spots and ways to spend time in the Georgia mountains?

























In the busy world, we live in, it’s always healthy to plan a romantic getaway with our husband. The scenery in Georgia is gorgeous. And being able to take pictures together out in the mountains and confirm the vows should be part of a healthy relationship. Thanks, for these lodging suggestions.
Thanks Ann! There are so many romantic places in North Georgia to explore but these definitely provide some of the most unique places to stay in the GA mountains!
I’ve been dying for a weekend (or longer!) getaway…and I’m sure I’m not alone after this very long Pandemic! I don’t have a romantic partner to go with but I’m sure I could find a friend or two to go with me. The Little Red Barn looks like a great place as I would love to watch a movie while sitting in the hot tub. I would love the “Relax and Renew” package at the Lake Rabun Inn. I might even stay longer so I could tack on the Hikers’ Adventure package! These all look like good choices. Thanks for posting!
Hi Cynthia, I have rented cabins with friends in the past and we have had a great time taking turns with meal prep and tending the fires. There is a different view with each season, so visit anytime you’re ready! As a bonus, you can expect great deals for off-season cabins rent Georgia mountains!
This is awesome! Me and my girlfriend have been looking for something romantic to do in someplace romantic to visit and I must admit that I have run into the perfect article for that. I really appreciate all the information that you have provided about the cabins rent north Georgia. We were originally thinking of romantic getaways near Georgia, but I didn’t realize that we had all these great options in North Georgia too! Thank you!!
The scenic mountain views and easy pace in the North Georgia mountains will help set a romantic mood no matter where you stay, but I think it adds to the excitement to stay at these extra romantic spots! Enjoy!!
Since I am a widow, I would opt for the large cabin that sleeps 14 and bring my entire family (4 children with their partners and 4 grandchildren and maybe my sister and her family). That sounds like a jolly good time. With the game room and playground, it sounds perfect for a get-away!
Hi Kay, The large cabin is a great choice to get the family together and make cherished memories. The rocking chairs and sweeping panoramic mountain views offer perfect spots for reading a book or watching the weather.
Thanks you for sharing about these locations! My 7th year anniversary is coming with my husband this April and it will be a perfect opportunity for us to get away. (We got the vaccines already so we are good to travel) Lucille Mountain Top Inn and Spa looks very promising and have all the amenities that both of us can enjoy. The Spring Garden is also very cute. I will check them out, thanks again!
Congrats on your 7th anniversary and for getting vaccinated!! The Lucille Mountain Top Inn spa is a fantastic place to enjoy time with your sweetheart.
I love the Little Red Barn, and the fact that it as a FAR sauna for use. I’m single, but I can see this as a great retreat for myself. The pricing is not bad at all. What are the average summer temperatures here? I am from Florida, so used to the heat 🙂
Hi Leahrae, The summer temperatures can get very hot and humid, but the temps usually stay in the 80’s during the day and it’s pleasantly warm at night. On the hottest summer days, it’s very refreshing to float on one of the cool rivers in the area!
I love the idea of romantic weekend getaways in north Georgia cabin rentals. You have given me such a great selection of places to choose from. It is also surprising that so many of them are dog friendly. They certainly all do look romantic.
The little red barn looks particularly delightful.
Thanks for sharing this. Keep up the good work.
Hi Geoff, Thanks so much! The north Georgia mountains are such a naturally beautiful place that it’s easy to understand why so many couples enjoy these romantic getaways in Georgia!
Oh my goodness that little red barn looks amazing! And that Lake Rabun Hotel, at 100 years old? Still looking gorgeous as ever!
I have been looking for a place to take my sweety! Maybe we should set one of these places up soon! We are over on the west coast but with flights being so cheap it might actually be quite worth it for long weekend trip! Thank you for all the amazing recommendations!
Hi Dawayne, The North Georgia mountains are a great place for a romantic weekend vacation! Lake Rabun is a gorgeous place to spend time in a natural setting and the Lake Rabun Hotel is one of the most charming places to visit in the area.
Since you’ll be flying in from the West coast, you can consider flying into one of 3 airports: Atlanta GA (ATL), Chattanooga TN (CHA), or Greenville SC (GSP). The North Georgia mountains are only a short drive from any of these 3 options!
The Little Red Barn looks like an absolutely amazing romantic weekend cabin getaways. If it was snowing outside, the experience would be so delightful. Sitting in a hot jacuzzi for a few hours while looking out at the snow is something I would love to do – even more so if I have my sweetheart with me. Personally, I live in Canada so I don’t know much about US geography, I’m not sure if it actually snows in North Georgia. If it does snow in the North Georgia’s Appalachian Mountains, how much snow and are these getaways still open? Thanks for the awesome article – great ideas for romantic Georgia mountain cabins!
Hi Kevin! The Georgia mountains are fortunate to get 4 distinct seasons of weather, and each Winter will usually bring at least a little bit of snow. The snow generally won’t last too long or cause too many issues (it’s rare when it lasts for more than a day or two), but there are indeed some places that become inaccessible in icy conditions.
You are definitely right though — it is fantastic fun to enjoy the soothing warmth of an outdoor hot tub during snow! 🙂
