About this property

Bear Pause,Babbling Creek,HotTub, FirePit, Hammock, NewFurnishing & Pet Friendly

Love the Babbling Creek within 25ft of this genuine log cabin, that has it all: Hot Tub, WiFi, flat screen TV, Hammock, Fireplace, Pet friendly¢ral to all things Blue Ridge. Come enjoy the sounds of the creek inside and outside plus get the best night’s sleep ever. And YES this is the adorable genuine log cabin, Bear Pause, that was previously managed by Mountain Escapes Properties with Bryan! Now New Furnishings and upgrades—including new 4 poster Queen Size log bed in master bedroom and brand new Cabin Lodge full size sofa, not to mention all new bedding for every bed! New placemats, and upgrades ongoing…There has been new decor added and continually more is being added to it all the time! And come at Christmas and enjoy the Holiday Bear Pause decor complete with its’ own Christmas tree! It is whimsical and will put all in the holiday spirit!

And not to be outdone by the interior, new steps done and there is new staining being completed now at the end of October 2023, for the front porch!

Within the neighborhood here of Cherry Log Mountain area, enjoy 8 stocked lakes fishing for large mouth bass or just hike all around as beautiful scenery delights. There is so much adventure awaiting you from hiking trails to neighborhood lakes, Lake Blue Ridge, Carter’s Lake and others within a short drive from the cabin.

The famous Benton MacKaye Hiking Trail winds right through here—and is enjoyed time after time among hikers from all over. Blue Ridge and Ellijay both offer great shopping dining, wineries, spas, galleries and festivals. Canoeing along the Toccoa River is another fun outing and don’t forget tubing, horseback riding, drive-in outdoor movie theater, the local theater with regular plays, the Railroad train adventure and the mining area….there is something for every age. And there are some shorter paved trails in the area for those with small kids or who prefer an easier more laid back kind of hike, too!

Welcome back if you are one of many that frequent this adorable romantic yet family and pet friendly cabin right on the creek! And if you have never been, what are you waiting for? It is the perfect getaway for romance or a small family adventure…the cabin itself offers a hot tub, the most beautiful natural water feature with the Laurel Creek right out the front door—-(cabins are no longer allowed to be built this close to the creek). And there is a fire pit down between the house and the creek for roasting marshmallows and having hot dogs and s’mores, a propane gas grill on upper level and below a hammock to enjoy the creek views and the sounds of this relaxing babbling Laurel Creek —it is perfect for a short get away or for a longer vacation with time for even more adventures and more peaceful relaxation. Please note it is a a shallow creek, so swimming is not allowed. Also, please note there is a dehumidifier in great room -which helps a lot especially in the summer months, so there is a tray in the bottom you can pull out to empty water, and it helps to keep the temp even in cabin that much better there in hot summer humid months of Georgia ! Being it is a small cabin with great a.c and dehumidifier you will so love it there even on hottest of days!

Look forward to you staying at our lil log cabin on the babbling creek and enjoying it as much as we do.

Sweet little rustic cabin

Bear Pause was the perfect little get away cabin. Close to Ellijay and Blue Ridge. We simply love this area of Laurel Ridge.

Cozy cabin right on the creek!

My husband and I spent our sixth wedding anniversary here with our two young daughters. We absolutely enjoyed this cozy little cabin, and all the neat scenery had to offer. Cab was so cute with the blackbear theme and really made it feel like we were having the “ Cabin experience”. We were also able to take advantage of Apple picking at the nearby Mercer Orchards, which our family absolutely loved I would highly recommend this cabin for a great weekend getaway!

Quiet cabin great for family stay

My family and I stayed at Bear Pause for a quick trip before school started. My boys loved playing in the creek that runs through the property. While very secluded, it's less than 10 min from town for shopping and activities. Great wifi. Plenty of towels for use, lots of pots, pans, etc for cooking. We also enjoyed the hot tub as well.

Nice getaway for our anniversary!

We just loved the babbling brook/creek in front of the cabin. The cozy cabin was stocked with items that we needed in the kitchen, bath, etc. The hot tub was a treat after a long day of hiking the waterfall parks and sightseeing.

Lovely restive view of Laurel Creek just below the cabin deck. Inside of cabin clean. On a mountain, in the woods, secluded yet really close to the town of Blue Ridge. Enjoyed our stay, however would suggest the deck, chairs & hot tub cover as well as the hammock cover be swept or hosed off as the layers of dust & pine pollen are off/putting.

Relaxation is great

Good for unplugging, relaxing, and resetting. Creek was calming to listen to in the evening when going to sleep, enjoyable to listen and look at from balcony over coffee and cocktails, and fun for walking in and skipping rocks. Perfect size for the 4 of us. Lots of things nearby to explore and do. We didn’t get to everything we wanted to do, but we had a ton of fun doing what we were able to accomplish. Can foresee an additional trip at some point to get the rest of the sights seen Amy was great to communicate with. We would stay here again!

Could Be A Lot Better

Cabin was too dark, kitchen especially. Steps and rails don't meet code Pile of dirt in the middle of the driveway caused us to walk thru a muddy area every time we left and returned.

Disappointed

We were excited to be on vacation cause we stayed at home last one.The cabin inside was sorta clean. The outside we had to sweep and wipe down everything before we could enjoy it. Location was great loved the water.Hot tub was not working either but not a big deal 2 guys came up at 8pm at night wanting a ride to find their cabin. We asked why they wasnt in their car and they said it doesnt do hills good. It didnt make sense and we felt uneasy in the middle of the woods. So we were suppose to stay 5 days and went home after 2 so yes disappointed.

Relaxing and Peaceful

The cabin here was just what we needed after a tough few weeks. I just wanted to get away and the peacefulness of this cabin with the creek outside was just the ticket. We spent three nights here, never once turned on the A/C, and could hear the creek no matter where we were in the cabin. My husband even said it was like a narcotic because we were so relaxed. :-). Amy was incredibly responsive with any questions we had, even checking with the cleaners to see if we could get in early since we got to town ahead of schedule. The cabin does face a gravel road so cars do come through from time to time but the creek drowns out a good bit of that noise. That was the only thing that surprised me but it didn’t dampen our enjoyment a bit. We definitely plan to come back and spend more time on that porch!

Beautiful location

This is an adorable small cabin that sits right above a beautiful noisy creek! The two bedrooms are small, but adequate, with the second bedroom having a full bunk on the bottom, and twin on top. The covered porch that fronts the creek is large with 2 rocking chairs, and a small table with 3 high chairs. It was a wonderful place to relax and listen to the creek. There was a also a gas grill on that level, that worked well. The kitchen was small, but clean. The cabin is very convenient to Blue Ridge, and as has been mentioned the gravel road to the cabin is like most mountain roads, just take your time. The only negative I have, is that the furnishings are a bit sad and worn, it might be time to update. We spent about 30 minutes cleaning the porch, so we could use it. I have never stayed anywhere that I needed to clean first. The hot tub was functional and hot, but we chose not to use it. It looks like it really needs a new top to secure it. Overall, the beauty of the setting is the ultimate winner!

Love our little log cabin in the woods—-our whole family enjoys it and we are happy to share with you and yours! And, we love to constantly upgrade it,too! New for 2022 is a brand new master bedroom Log 4 poster bed! And new bedding for ALL the beds in the cabin, too! A New full size dryer was installed 2022 and a new full size washer was installed end of 2021! New gorgeous mountain themed sofa arrived end 2023 Constant upgrades are being done there, as nothing but the best, for our lil mountain log cabin!

It is amazing in the snow,too, and the perfect size for 2-5 people — great romantic getaway for a weekend and a great place for small family for winter, spring or summer school breaks or holidays —-It is magical anytime and we love it is within 5 min of Walmart and yet feel way away from everyone—plus no major winding uphill crazy roads to get there ..so no motion sickness going to our cabin(we think this is a huge plus as motion sickness in our family with major winding roads—but not coming here!)!We can even drive our mini van right on up to the cabin!

Why they chose this property

Because it is so adorable, cozy, romantic and fun for a small family and a furry family member, too! It sits on An Amazing babbling creek, Laurel Creek, nestled in the Blue Ridge mountains! And it is a true log cabin—looks like a life size Lincoln log cabin! It is sure to delight anyone and everyone!

What makes this property unique

Right on Laurel creek, can’t build this close to the creek anymore —and it makes for a great setting as can even hear the creek inside — which can calm, and make one sleep like a baby. It is off the beaten path, and nestled in the woods but close to the interstate and no winding roads uphill that could cause motion sickness! It is the perfect location and the perfect real log cabin!

And every year it is decorated for Christmas with stockings hung by the fireplace and a Bear cabin theme decorated tree —it doesn’t get much better than this Lil Log Cabin to snuggle up in for the holidays!
