About this property

Only 5 minutes from our cabin lies downtown Blue Ridge, easily Georgia's coolest mountain town and one of the best kept secrets in the Smokey Mountains! The Lazy Bear boasts amazing mountain views, yet easy, paved roads take you nearly all the way to our driveway! You can get away from it all immersed in impressive mountain scenery. Check out a local winery, or head out to a Smoky Mountain hiking trail, adventure through rapids as you experience white water rafting, try your luck at fishing, or spend the day shopping at one of Blue Ridge's quaint boutiques. Downtown Blue Ridge has numerous restaurant options ranging from a casual brewery to the most elegant dining experience. The Lazy Bear is right in the heart of it all ; just a 5 minute drive to get to the heart of it all! While staying at our cabin, wake up to some of the most impressive sunrises, then enjoy your coffee on one of 2 expansive decks (in the hanging hammock chairs or loungers) or view the sunrise from our new hot tub. The cabin includes two separate bedroom suites, and 2 large lower level bedrooms with a spacious full bathroom across the hall; perfect for multiple guests to share. Cute built in bunk beds and a comfy new sleeper sectional sofa available for additional sleeping make up the lower level family room. We also have a full size, auto inflatable air mattress for 2 more guests that can be set up down there. Our kitchen is well stocked with both small appliances, cooking utensils and basic ingredients (sugar, flour, coffee, salt, pepper, spices and more!) End your day enjoying a movie in one of the family rooms, or the NEW GARAGE Converted TV/GAME ROOM. In the garage game room, you and you can mix drinks at the bar, or challenge your friends to a game of ping pong while watching not one, but 2 separate movies or sporting events! Two cozy gas fireplaces are located indoors for chilly fall and winter nights or enjoy the party porch with a real wood burning fireplace for the most beautiful end to your evenings! Finally, if you want to venture a little deeper into the yard, make s'mores at the fire pit in the woods. Escape to the 3 car garage converted to a cozy TV/Game Room. Stay for a weekend, a week or longer - you may never want to leave!

Great location beautiful cabin

We stayed here during new years and the location was perfect, the scenery was beautiful. Description was what we expected so we were happy about that. A few opportunities: water filter on fridge wasn’t changed so we were sure if we should use, dusty in some areas.Positives: lots of kitchenware and spices to be able to use. Loved the holiday decor, very kid friendly with lots of entertainment for kids and adults. Hostess was great a

Incredible Views - The Perfect Weekend Getaway

Stayed here with a group of friends for a weekend in October and had a blast! It was a super spacious house with plenty of common areas to hang out with a large group. Our favorite features were the outdoor fireplace, the hot tub, and the game garage! Plus we had the most amazing views of the fall foliage. I would definitely recommend this stay to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Blue Ridge. The hosts were lovely as well. Overall a wonderful experience.

What a view!!

Let me just say from the start that the view from the Lazy Bear cabin is breathtaking! Everything we wanted to do was close by; hiking, orchards, shopping, white water rafting…Inside the cabin was spacious and well maintained. The kitchen had an extra large refrigerator that held all our food and had space left over. We so enjoyed having a ping pong table to play on and we also had plenty of room for playing cards and board games. Plenty of room to sleep too. Our visit was a dream come true!

Girls Weekend

Our stay at The Lazy Bear was fantastic!!!! The house is amazing and the view is spectacular!!! I have never stayed in a property that was more stocked with everything needed!!! This is our yearly girls winter get away and it was SO fun!!!! We said that next year we need to stay an extra night! Two nights was just not long enough. Loved that it was only 5 min. to downtown Blue Ridge. The annual Chili Cook-off was taking place in downtown, so it was hopping with lots of folks. Several of the girls are already planning to rent this property for their families!!! Just awesome!!! Will definitely be back!!!

Beautiful house and awesome location.

Stayed two nights with my wife and three adult friends. First off, the house is gorgeous and the location to Blue Ridge was awesome. The Nightly rate was fairly expensive so we booked this specific house for a few reasons that really mattered to us, number one -The Party Deck! We’re a group of over 50’s that still like to party. The only downside was the owner clarified to us after we paid that “No Smoking” meant - “Nowhere on the premises”. We had to walk off the property on the other side of the road to smoke. We are mature people and certainly understand smoking in a house or even on a deck where smoke can roll into the house would not be good, but saying no smoking on the land, “like next to the very nice fire pit 50’ from the house” was not allowed either. A little over the top for me. I reserved the house and am an ex smoker, but felt bad for the others that did obey the rules and walk across the street. But….if you’re non-smokers, this house is really nice and I highly recommend. 😊

Beautiful Property

I can't say enough positive about this house. Everything was as it was advertised. Beautiful! Very close to down town Blue Ridge but had a remote feeling at the same time. Would highly recommend and would definitely rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff and Gayle Kennedy

My husband Jeff and I love to travel! We have visited many short term rental homes, and always appreciate when the owners put a little extra attention into making our stay comfortable. We love to share the special spaces we have created with others; we hope that you have a chance to experience the joy we feel every time we visit!

Why they chose this property

The Lazy Bear is special...we chose it because it's only 5 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge, yet secluded and has massive, beautiful mountain views. You will know what we mean as soon as you step out of your car and onto the porch heading to the main door. We have seen some of the most beautiful sunsets ever right here! When we're here, we feel miles away from the hustle and bustle of life....

What makes this property unique

We love the east facing view to enjoy sunrises - especially from the loft which is the primary bedroom suite! Having coffee in the hot tub or sitting in the swinging hammock chairs watching the sun come up is also a special treat! We also like that there are really 2 very private master suites, and an 'oversized' bathroom on the lower level for those sleeping down there. We also like the comfortable space our conversion provides. We added 2 TV's because we are huge sports fans - obviously we can cheer on more than one team at a time then! Taking walks in the neighborhood are some of the most peaceful we have ever taken; a little bit of exertion, and a LOT of amazing views and sometimes wildlife!
