About this property

Take a Paws - close to downtown, fenced yard, pets

Summary:
Minutes from downtown Blue Ridge, this new, pet friendly cabin is the perfect family vacation getaway! It provides exceptional amenities, three large bedrooms, comfortable furniture, great outdoor space with three porch/patio levels, fenced yard, two separate living areas, pool table, hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor fireplace to take in everything the mountains has to offer. Private and cozy!

The Space:
Blue Ridge, GA has been a tourist destination since its founding in 1886. The first railway came to Blue Ridge at this time and provided an easy path from Atlanta. Overnight Blue Ridge became a boomtown. People flocked to this region to enjoy the fresh mountain air and cool climate. The same wonderful experiences are true today!

Since its humble beginnings, a variety of new adventures are offered now including trails, waterfalls, Lake Blue Ridge, horseback riding, tubing, white water rafting, breweries, wineries, restaurants, shopping and a plethora of other attractions.

The mountains are our retreat! Take a Paws got its name because it perfectly describes this property. A place to relax and unwind and your fur babies home away from home!

Entering the cabin, you will notice the cathedral ceilings, open space, and the feeling of home! The furniture provides that farmhouse cabin feel with comfort in mind. The home is tastefully decorated with numerous references to our furry family members and includes a fully equipped kitchen to discuss the day's adventures while preparing dinner.

The home has three levels with bedrooms on each. Two separate living areas (main floor and basement) provide entertainment for everyone. The downstairs has a pool table, 55" HD TV, bar area and comfortable seating to enjoy the game or movie. The main floor includes the dining area, family room, 55" HD TV, half bath/laundry room and kitchen.

Sleeping arrangements include:
Top level has a master suite, king bed and private porch. The main level has a master suite and king bed and lower level is a queen bed with bathroom directly across the hall. Additional sleeping options are available with a twin trundle bed in the lower level game room area for a maximum 8 guest stay.

The fenced backyard, with over 2,000 square feet of area, has plenty of room for your pet and children to play. You can take a short stroll to the creek at the bottom of the property. Relax in the glider swing on the bottom level and enjoy what nature has to offer. A 5 person hot tub is also available for your enjoyment and has a privacy wall.

The property has parking on two levels. Two parking spaces are available at the top of the driveway and two parking spaces in front of the cabin. The top parking spaces are a very short walk down the driveway. Four wheel or AWD is not necessary to access the property. The roads leading to the cabin are newly paved offering very smooth access.

This home is pet friendly, as the owners believe the entire family should be able to be together. Dog bowls, treats, a cozy bed and nature call bags are also provided for your stay! Please contact us for approval for any dogs over 50lbs. Normal limit is two but we do make exceptions. This is a very dog friendly property!

After the day's activities, the kids can enjoy a game of pool, play cards, build a puzzle or cozy up on the couch to watch a movie in front of the fireplace.

The adults can relax by the upstairs fireplace, reading, watching the big game or binge watching their favorite show on Netflix.

The home is equipped with a gas grill, outdoor dining table, multiple porch furniture and wood burning fireplace. Firewood is provided for the fireplace and fire pit areas.

We look forward to welcoming you to this beautiful property!

Christmas In Blue Ridge

This cabin was great for our family Christmas. Plenty of space inside and out. The host was great to work with and accommodating for our dogs. You are close to downtown Blue Ridge and only 11 minutes from the grocery store. The cabin is very easy to get in and out of with your vehicle also. We had a great time, and would definitely book again

Cozy Cottage

Great cottage thats nicer in person. Well stocked kitchen, lots of games and wood for a fire. Enough room for everyone to spread out or spend time together playing pool or one of the many games or puzzles provided by the owners. Loved the ability to bring fur babies.

Nice spot for a low key guys weekend

Had 5 guys down and had a great time. Outdoor space is really good. Downstairs gets a bit chilly but the push button gas fireplace actually makes very comfortable after 10 or 15 minutes. All in all a nice spot for a group of 5 looking for a beer and a fire.
