About this property

Blue Ridge Bound! Great views atop a mountain by the lake

This very cozy cabin is bright and airy with spectacular mountain views. Roads to the cabin have been newly paved are very safe with no scary drop offs or blind turns or slopes. You do not need 4 wheel drive or a truck to get here.

The property is enclosed by hundreds of feet of split rail fencing and flanked by the Chattahoochee National Forrest. From the deck, lake "peeks" can be seen in the winter months. A wrap around porch is enclosed with gates for the safety of your children and pets.

Inside the cabin there are 3 bedrooms with a king master suite with 47" TV and screened porch on the top floor, a queen bedroom with 26" TV on the main floor, and a kid's den with 2 bunk beds (full sized beds on bottom and twin on top) on the ground floor. A pull out couch provides additional sleeping space. There is a game room with ping pong, a bar, and a 32" flat screen TV. A shared "take one, leave one" book library provides rainy day entertainment. A cozy den with wood burning fireplace and 32" TV has a sleep sofa with trundle bed. The cabin's 3 fireplaces (1 wood-burning and 2 gas) bring warmth and charm on cool nights.

The outside space has horseshoes and a fire pit area with seating for 6. Hike down the mountain 10 minutes to Lake Blue Ridge or enjoy the fabulous hiking and biking paths of "Trail Town" in the Aska Adventure Area within the vicinity. Blue Ridge Lake Recreation area is a few minutes away and has both paved and dirt trails (easy) and access to the lake for a swim. A less than 10 min drive brings you into historic Blue Ridge for shopping, drinks and food in one direction, while the same time in the other direction brings you to the Blue Ridge Marina for fishing, food, drink, and boat rentals.

Lots of wildlife has been seen by my guests on the property, including black bears, turkeys, deer, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and owls.

Beautiful Place in the woods, but close to everything.
Andrew and Susan’s home was well-appointed, the kitchen had literally anything one could hope for. Beyond the basics! The view is very nice. There is plenty of space in the home for more than our 3 person group. A big family would still have plenty of room. The side den, the hermit den, was my favorite. Beautiful little nook with a huge tv and comfortable daybed. *Do follow the directions you’re sent after reserving, GPS won’t get you the last few miles to the house. There were areas with a lot of dust; hermit den lamp covered, kitchen ceiling light fixture, dead ladybugs and dust in sills of windows, dead bug by the bed on the main floor. **The house IS clean**, but a couple of overlooked areas, and suspect there was just enough time between guests that the few bugs were not a big deal. You’re in the woods:). No live bugs in sight, even better! The house was very close to everything in Blue Ridge, within a beautiful setting. Andrew and Susan were very responsive and extremely helpful. Very lovely people. I would stay here again.

Early Spring Week in Blue Ridge
We had a wonderful one week stay in mid-March. The cabin is very clean and so comfortable. Lots of different areas to sit and read, watch TV, enjoy the views, chat with friends. We had a variety of weather days, from sunny and warm to cold, rainy and windy. We enjoyed going into town to explore on the good weather days, and loved staying at the cabin to relax and read (and play ping pong!) on the bad weather days. The kitchen was well-stocked for when we wanted to eat in, but we also really enjoyed sampling the restaurants in town. (We recommend The Black Sheep and Harvest on Main.) The hosts were great with communication and provided a list of helpful information and instructions at the cabin. We highly recommend!

Great stay
We had a great stay. House was everything we needed- comfortable, pretty view, close to town, well stocked. Loved the location, the balconies and fit pit area. My adult kids loved the downstairs level. Saw many deer around the property, which we loved! Couldn’t figure out the microwave and the ice maker wasn’t working. Besides that, we loved it.

Spot-on!
The listing pictures and description gave an excellent and accurate impression of the property (NOT always the case with other listings!). The house was great - very roomy with well-designed spaces. The stairs were "normal" vs steep (another issue we've had at other places). The road getting to the property is narrow at points so definitely drive very slowly coming and going. I highly recommend this property. In fact, I suspect we'll be back in the future!

Wonderful cabin, relaxating!
We had a wonderful stay. The location is absolutely perfect. The drive up to the cabin was beautiful. The moment you walk into the cabin you feel yourself relax. The beds were super comfortable. We had our adult children and doggies with us. It was very family friendly. Its a well-stocked cabin and has everything you need for cooking, etc. The property manager was super attentive, friendly and easy to get a hold of (I didn't read the instructions properly on getting there and had to call to get clarification!) Definitely will stay there again!

Convenient to downtown Blue Ridge.
The cabin is conveniently located to restaurants and downtown Blue Ridge. Roads to the cabin are a little rough as mountain roads are but do not require four wheel drive vehicles. Kitchen was well appointed with anything needed for preparing meals. Also, there is a standard coffeemaker as well as a Keurig.

Wonderful Short Getaway
We had a two night stay here recently with our family and some friends. Everyone was impressed with the property, location, and the views. The cabin is in great shape and is very well kept. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean and working. The master suite was the entire upper level and was spacious and included a private screened in deck which was a nice bonus. The cable (satellite) and internet seemed fine and no issues. The kitchen was well-stocked. We enjoyed sitting on the decks and around the fire pit and enjoying the views and the peaceful setting. One of our first impressions was how quiet it was at this property. We walked down to the lake a couple of times and there are walking trails nearby as well. The lake is a bit of a walk down the mountain but it was pleasant. The public boat launch is at the bottom of the mountain if you bring your own watercraft. Town was only ten minute drive away if needed supplies or food. The national forest is across the street and the location is somewhat remote but everyone still had 2-3 bars on their cell phones if needed to keep in touch with others back home. We had a couple of deer come through the property on one of the afternoons. We would definitely like to make it back to this property in the future. I am sure it is gorgeous in the fall with the fall foliage changes.

Great Experience
You can tell the owners take pride in their cabin. Very clean, well stocked and the location is great! The weather wasn't the best, however, since the cabin was so nice it was okay to be stuck inside for a couple of days. We were able to venture out a few times and the walking trails were great. The cabin was very close to the lake so the kids enjoyed that. On the last morning we saw nine (9) deer in the backyard. It was very cool. Overall we had a great experience and the owners were very responsive if we had any questions (which there were a couple 😁). We would definitely stay here again.

close to town but feels like it's in the middle of nowhere, large property with great mountain views. more thoroughly and thoughtfully stocked than any property we've ever rented. they also continue to invest in the cabin, as we noticed several upgrades from last time including new tv's. we will be back.

Why they chose this property

I spent several months driving around Georgia looking for a lake or mountain cabin. After seeing all the others, I finally found Blue Ridge. I always feel like I have arrived at a wonderful destination as the mountains get taller and I see the lake as I head to the cabin. Its a perfect destination for mountains and lake activities, such as hiking, trout fishing and boating. Downtown Blue Ridge has developed into an amazing destination. There are really nice restaurants and shops. Only 20 miles to Olympic white water rafting on the Ocoee River in Tennessee. Great BBQ, orchards, farms, and of course, the Appalachian Trail begins at nearby Springer Mountain. If you enjoy the outdoors and feel the mountains are a great escape, as my family has, you will love our cabin.
