About this property

Mountain top overlooking lake, Hot Tub, Sauna, Solo Yukon Fire Pit, 5 STAR, PETS

We have 3 homes in the private gated lake community. We have over 450 reviews of 5 stars ***** on our three vacation homes!!! Please see the bottom of the listing to view our 2 other homes in the same private gated lake community.

Our cabin is not on the water front. It is on a mountaintop overlooking the lake.

We have a Solo Yukon fire pit, just bring your own wood! Enjoy the outdoors next to a fire on the deck. We replaced the gas one with this smokeless wood pit.

Special pricing for 4-6 night stays (during off-peak season). The discount is already computed with 7 or more date inquiries. The discount is $112 for the 4th, 5th, AND 6th nights. You must inquire for the pricing before booking. The VRBO system does not properly price visits of this duration (4-6 nights). One week rentals and more are automatically discounted by the system (during off-peak season).

We can only fit 2 cars at the property. There is no parking along the road. If you need a third car to use home they will have to park at club house or great festival park.

We can't wait for you to experience the beauty, nature, and peacefulness of Lake Arrowhead.

Please refer to the listing's map and photos which show the home's location in relation to the lake and community. We are on a mountaintop overlooking the lake- it does not have waterfront... it does have a boat slip and water access thru the marina and park.

We welcome you to enjoy our custom log cabin home (sleeps 6) complete with metal roof which is the color of oxidized copper. Although it is a newer home, we have done everything possible to bring the features back to a rustic - turn of the century style. We have 3 bedrooms and a sleeping loft, 3 full baths, hot tub, sauna, game loft, two decks with beautiful views, professionally decorated modern kitchen, newer electronics, linens, bedding, rustic real log furniture, etc.

Our mountain top cabin is nestled in the treetops of one of the highest ridges in beautiful Lake Arrowhead. Once there, you will enjoy the panoramic vista, which includes our pristine, spring fed Lake Arrowhead, Kennesaw Mountain as well as the lights of Atlanta in the evening.

BOAT RENTAL

We offer a BOAT RENTAL (Bentley 20 ft pontoon with a 90 hp Mercury engine) at our marina slip for $240/day or $1350/week minimum 3 day rental peak season, 2 day minimum off peak season. We only have 2 rental boats for our 4 rental homes.... please reserve early. Sorry, no tubing or any towing. (insurance rules).

We do provide kayaks and a canoe for you to take to the lake marina and park area. Enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, sailing or relaxing on the water while you stay in the tree tops of the mountains.

Wifi is offered at our cabin so you can stay connected, if necessary. Once you enter the front door, we are sure you will want to disconnect. Land line phones are available for your use with free domestic long distance. Smart TVs (HUGE 75 inch in the living room and 40 inch in the master) offer both cable, movies, SONOS sound system, music and more.

The great room overlooks the beauty of our community as well as our pristine lake and onto the sights of the North Georgia mountains. There you will find a combination of rich chocolate leather sofas, rustic wood accents and a 75 inch smart, wifi TV, and stereo speakers. A wood burning stove is there for your nostalgic warmth and comfort.

Our state of the art professionally decorated kitchen is designed to bring you back to memories of the turn of the century. The antique camouflaged Elmira stove conceals a secret modern electronic appliance with glass top stove and oven. The kitchen cabinets are replicated to resemble oxidized copper panels, which are accented with black granite counter tops, appliances and stainless steel.

Our sleeping loft (capacity for two) encompasses a game loft. There you will find a shuffle board table, table and chairs and all of your favorite games as well as puzzles for your relaxation and enjoyment. This room overlooks the main level and shares the same panoramic view the main level enjoys.

Please take the opportunity to enjoy our community friends such as ducks, geese, fish, frogs, wild turkeys, bears, boars, lots and lots of deer (please be careful at dusk...they are everywhere), our own Bald Eagle, foxes, numerous species of birds, small land animals, etc. We have many visitors from Florida who rent with us and inquire about gators,..no worries...they do not reside in Lake Arrowhead! We have plenty of community friends ...we ask that you please leave your furry family members at home. We do not feel we can provide a quality vacation home if we allow pets. We love them and hope you understand our need for a pet free environment to accommodate our guests with allergies.

We have very simple rules at our cabin...

Relax, gather with family, take long walks, please do not keep a schedule (we have no deadlines here), smell the trees, count the stars, skip rocks, watch eagles soar (look for our own Bald Eagle on the lake), hibernate, do not feed the bears (they do live in our community), listen to the brook, gather pine cones, take time to laugh, breathe deep and enjoy the fresh air, rest, relax and renew, make smores....enjoy the great outdoors...it is the perfect time to explore and enjoy...best of all, no dress code here!

We recommend trip cancellation insurance. Protect your vacation. When we reserve your rental we turn dozens of other customers away while holding the property for you. If someone cancels on us it is hard to find another renter on short notice. When my family goes on vacation we purchase trip insurance, it has saved us a few times.

We do empty the water and clean the hot tub after each renter for your hot tubbing enjoyment!

The minimum age to reserve the home is 30.

Perfect escape to nature!
The pictures don't do this home justice! The views and wildlife are amazing. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and saw deer right off the deck every time we looked. The hot tub was perfect for the colder evenings we experienced during our stay. We spent some time working remotely and had no issues with the Wifi. The kitchen was very well stocked and in good working order. We look forward to returning!

Exceeding Expectations!
A great vacation home. Throughly enjoy our stay. There was plenty of room and we really enjoyed the decks. Beautifully appointed and relaxing. If getting away from it all is what you're looking for and having some quiet time, this is it. At the same time the location is great for watersports on the lake, golf, shopping within a short distance and fantastic restaurants. Overall this house offers the best of everything. A very gracious host!!!

We had a super weekend. The location was perfect for a couples weekend getaway.
The Stay was wonderful. We really Loved the property. Everything was convenient and ready for our stay. The only issues we incurred was the dishwasher and we ran out of propane for the grill. Other than that no complaints and will definitely recommend to family and friends.

Family Vacation
Very nice cabin. Lots of room to be together or be on different levels for privacy. Kitchen was well stocked. I didn't see it in the pictures, but there was a keurig as well as the automatic coffee pot. My (adult) boys liked this cabin better than any of the others we have rented. Like the others have said, very steep drive/roads and lots of deer. I also liked that they have a suggestion box in the living room for the owners. It was a bit rainy so we took advantage of the games supplied for guests. Lots of stairs, 3 levels. Not a tourist town. Very Peaceful setting. Sat w/my coffee on the upper deck each morning, listening to the birds and wildlife rustle in the trees/woods.

Spent 4 days. It was wonderful. 1st day there 1 inch of snow. Kids and adults enjoyed playing in it. #FLORIDA We had storms roll through before the snow and power was out for about 5 hours. Tell the truth we didn't really care. So peaceful... Saw tons of dear while hiking the trails saw owls and ran across bear tracks. Lake was beautiful didn't get to use it being it was cold. And the host Rob was really nice to deal with. Thanks for everything We are already looking to book another date now.

Great weekend getaway!
Wonderful location a short distance from Atlanta and the location within the Lake Arrowhead community was ideal too. The view from the large windows when you walk onto the second floor are just spectacular. Hot tub, sauna and wood stove were all well used with the cold weather. The kitchen is very well stocked with all of the essentials including some spices. I would definitely go back and hope other families get away for a wonderful weekend together.

Georgia Family Vacation
We traveled from Illinois with our family to visit family. The check in process was simple and contactless. The check out was just as simple. The amenities were very accommodating. Our family meals together were very memorable. We enjoyed boating on the lake and everything about being in a cabin in the woods. We live around farmland so driving in the area took some getting used to. By the end we had the kids in the truck driving up the driveway. Thank you for sharing your cabin!

Lovely Mountain Home, Pretty View
Great for our ladies weekend retreat. Even a beautiful place to watch the rain. Everything perfect except the driveway, which is steep with a sharp bend & doesn't look that bad for a Mtn driveway. It may have been ok if not for sudden heavy rain that washed silt onto it. We were able to get one car back up easily, but we had to scrub and rinse the driveway before my little sports car could get enough traction. I would definitely rent this wonderful place again, but I would not bring the same car. Excellent communication and they thought of literally everything plus welcoming extras. Exceptionally clean and the most comfortable beds too! Charming neighborhood, yet looking out over forest and lake so it feels secluded.

Fun Way Up High
If you like wooded hills and valleys, if you like gorgeous views, if you enjoy tasteful, rustic decorating and appreciate an owner’s attention to details with wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces that include amenities like a hot tub, grill, sauna, wood stove, fully stocked kitchen, loft/game room complete with standing popcorn popper, you’ll love 150 Ponderosa Lane! The owners were receptive to our questions and needs. The amenities of the gated community with its well-maintained trails, playgrounds, fishing /boating make this a rare find for those ready for family adventure, connection and relaxation. I would advise a four-wheeler to fully enjoy the area.

Incredible Views and Trails
We were here for a wedding, but the property and surrounding area provided so much more. We are a large family, we had grandparents (60yo), us (30yo) and our 4 kids (9, 7, 5, and 1) and there was so much to do for all of us. We went hiking on the Wilderness and Cascade trails located 5 minutes away inside the neighborhood every day, and every day was a different adventure. We went fishing at the marina located inside the neighborhood every day as well and caught nice bass every day! (my 5 yo caught the same bass 4 times, it was on a bed so it was too easy, lol) We played on the new playground, swam in the creek, ate at the clubhouse and food truck and so much more. This was a blast and we will definitely be back. The only thing you will need to be really good at is driving narrow, winding roads loaded with deer. And the driveway is a challenge like most reviews say, but we had an XL Yukon and made it up and down every day with no problems. By the end I was even backing down. But hey, I like a challenge. :)

About the host

Hosted by rob leyden

Host profile image
We are two hard working entreprenuers with two very young children. We bought this property as an investment for our future and to be able to get away from the city life and retreat to a much more relaxing environment. Lake Arrowhead brings us to a place where we leave the stress behind and focus on family and the outdoors.

Why they chose this property

If you love being outdoors, Lake Arrowhead is the place for you (golf, swimming, boating, tennis, hiking, fishing, etc). Imagine a day waking up to a beautiful sunrise overlooking a tranquil lake, with deer visiting in your back yard. Enjoy breakfast outside on the deck with a beautiful view. Rent a boat and take a ride on a pontoon boat for a few hours or the week. Travel an hour away and take in an Atlanta Braves game. Then visit some of the finest restaurants in the United States in Buckhead.....what a perfect day!

What makes this property unique

The view is the best in the entire community. We installed a hot tub. Enjoy a glass of champagne or cocktail while overlooking the lake and the city of Atlanta in the distance. Finish off the day with a steam in the new Sauna.
