Retreat to Pet-Friendly Cabin near Helen, Blue Ridge & Appalachian Trail!

Dragonfly Cottage – A Peaceful Hillside Escape in the Heart of North Georgia

Tucked into a quiet hillside behind the Misty Mountain Inn, Dragonfly Cottage offers a peaceful retreat for those looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. Newly renovated and full of cozy charm, this cabin is perfect for couples, solo adventurers, or anyone seeking a romantic escape in the mountains of North Georgia.

Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting space with a queen bed, a comfortable sofa sleeper, and a wood-burning fireplace to set the mood on cool mountain nights. The fully equipped kitchen gives you the flexibility to cook meals at your own pace, while Dish TV and reliable Wi-Fi provide modern comforts when you're ready to relax. A quiet HVAC system ensures comfort in every season.

Step outside to the covered front porch, where you can rock gently in the mountain breeze with a cup of coffee or evening drink in hand, watching wildlife and soaking in the views of the surrounding forest. Whether you're reading, journaling, or just breathing deeply, this space invites you to slow down and savor the moment.

Traveling with a pet? Dragonfly Cottage is pet-friendly with host approval, and we welcome well-behaved dogs in accordance with our pet policy.

Please note: There are multiple flights of stairs leading to this cabin, as it is nestled into the hillside behind the Inn.

Planning a Group Stay?

Dragonfly Cottage is one of six private cabins at Misty Mountain Inn & Cottages, which also includes a four-suite Inn perfect for larger gatherings. Whether you're organizing a family reunion, faith retreat, wedding weekend, or friends' getaway, our property offers the perfect setup for group travel. Rent multiple cabins—or the whole estate—and enjoy a shared mountain experience with plenty of space for everyone.

Central to the Best of North Georgia

Just under two hours from Atlanta, Dragonfly Cottage puts you in the heart of the mountains with easy access to the region’s most beloved destinations. You’re only minutes away from:

Brasstown Bald – Georgia's highest peak with stunning views

Vogel State Park – waterfalls, hiking trails, and a mountain lake

Downtown Blairsville – shops, restaurants, and small-town charm

Trackrock Petroglyph Site – home to ancient Native American rock carvings

We’re also proud to support Appalachian Trail hikers, offering shuttle services for thru-hikers and section hikers.

During your stay, explore over four acres of beautifully manicured land, complete with gazebos, fire pits, picnic areas, swings, and a peaceful pond with benches and ducks to greet you. Parking is available near the cabin, and while Dragonfly is tucked behind the Inn for privacy, it's still conveniently close to Town Creek School Road for easy access.

Destination stay

Pretty nice grounds. In walking the dog I found a few hideaway's. Small pound in bloom, gazebo overlooking horse barn and pasture. It was a single room cabin. Had to set the fridge. Didn't realize it was set on high and froze up the first night

Overall great!

The owners were amazing at communicating and making sure we were satisfied. The place could have used a little more cleaning prior our arrival, but overall acceptable. They had all the essentials you needed to feel comfortable and enjoy the stay.

Perfect solitude

Owners were very accommodating. Answered all questions. They know the area very well and are very quick to offer information on local attractions. Overall a very pleasant stay. Our Goldendoodle also enjoyed the visit as he was welcomed just as much as we were. Thanks again!

Wonderful atmosphere

This place is a great place to stay. There are a few cabins to chose from, and all of them are extremely affordable. I have three dogs so it takes a little extra work to find places to stay, but this place was very accommodating to pet owners. The best part is this place is ran by a retired military family, so when you stay here you help support a family that sacrificed to support us.

Quiet Retreat

This was my getaway from the ordinary. I already love the Blairsville area. The Misty Mountain cottages were perfectly centered in between lots of amazing hiking trails. My dog loved running in the field behind the property. Birds everywhere and a beautiful eastern view from the front porch of my cabin!

Great cozy and friendly getaway!

There are several great little cabins on a beautiful property. We were welcomed by some great hosts, ducks, and chickens. Very close drive to great views and the pretty downtown of Blairsville. If you have dogs this place is great because a close walk away there is a big field away from roadways where the doggos can run. Highly recommend for an adventurous couple that likes to visit small town USA and hike!

Great long weekend!

My wife and I came into town for a long weekend and had a great stay. The cottage was as advertised - small and cozy, plenty for the two of us for a short stay. The grounds were scenic and well maintained. Would definitely come back!

The property was exactly as described and was spotless. Everything about the week end was so easy (except for the hike up Brasstown Bald!) We were so happy with our decision to stay at Misty Mountain Dragonfly cabin.
