The house is charming and quaint- just what we wanted! Sheena is a great host. Everything was clean and the house was well stocked. We enjoyed our time there as well as the nearby nature trails. Buy your food before getting there. The roads into the subdivision can be a bit steep- it is in the mountains after all!

Lake Hideaway was as beautiful as the pictures. You wake up to lake views basically out of every window. I definitely recommend this place for a get away. A couple of notes: the lake is gorgeous just for the views but didn’t look like a body of water I’d want to swim in. If that’s what you’re looking for, it might be worth exploring larger lakes. Also, while WiFi is noted as available, please be aware this secluded spot makes the WiFi (and cell reception) slow/non existent. We had some unexpected important business to take care of and weren’t able to cancel the booking due to the cancellation policies, so we had to drive 20 mins to the nearest Starbucks a couple of times to take of things during our stay. Otherwise, this was a great listing and made for a relaxing mini vacation!

My husband and I took our six-year-old twins to Blue Ridge and stayed in this cabin. It was beautifully decorated with every amenity imaginable… Cupboards stocked and spotlessly clean. The location is fantastic and we all enjoyed fishing off the dock and using the boat… The kids even caught nice sized bass! Communication was great and this cabin is located near several attractions including Lillypad village, the Sasquatch museum and Fall Branch falls. Beautiful!

My family and I absolutely loved our time here, it’s one of our favorite cabins we have stayed in. Sheena has done a wonderful job to make the cabin cozy and super clean. It’s situated in a beautiful location with lake access so you can go down to the private dock to nap on the hammock or take the row boat out for some fun, and it’s just a short drive to the downtown Blue Ridge area. The roads getting up to the cabin are a little narrow and steep at times, but we had no trouble navigating them, and Sheena provided great directions so we were able to find the cabin, even when we arrived in the dark (but I recommend arriving during the day time your first time just to make things a little easier). My family and I would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone who is looking for a beautiful North Georgia getaway, we will definitely be back!

What a great place to get away and recharge. The place was accurately described in a great location, secluded at the end of the road yet convenient to do many outdoor adventures. If your looking for a super clean place with all you need and located close to other amenities this is it!

I was amazed at the amount of additional touches around the house such as soaps,shampoos and lotions. The kitchen was well stocked much more than many other properties that I have stayed in previously. The property was serene and peaceful. The only want that I had was use of the outdoor and indoor fire places. Use of the fire place is seasonal but the weather would have been perfect for a fire.

Lake Hideaway was amazing. My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves and did not want to leave! The cabin was perfect and the view was even more stunning in person! The location was a little tricky getting to as it is tucked away nicely in the mountains, but once you're there, it offers such a quiet and peaceful vibe. If there's an opening, book it. You won't regret it!

We stayed 2 nights at Sheena’s beautiful cabin. The cabin is more beautiful then the pictures! It was a quiet and very relaxing stay for us, and there is also plenty of exploring to do in the Blue Ridge mountains. We loved our stay and recommend it. Sheena is very responsive and provided a warm inviting atmosphere.

PERFECT MOUNTAIN PARADISE! We celebrated a special birthday at the cabin and Sheena couldn’t have made it a more wonderful stay! The home is immaculate! Very clean and well-maintained! She has any kitchen supply you could ever need, as well as towels blankets, etc! It was a seamless process communicating Sheena. The views from the deck are incredible and we enjoyed the fire pit multiple times during our stay. I would recommend this cabin to anyone traveling to the area!

I can’t say enough good things about Sheena’s cabin. It is by far the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. Whoever cleans is very thorough and obviously pays a lot attention to detail. Everything you might need upon arrival is available in the kitchen and bathrooms. There’s a canoe and fishing gear, and a beautiful lake with just as much privacy and peace as you could ask for. There is an awesome heater in the master bathroom, which also has a perfectly clean and well-kept jacuzzi tub. There’s a washer and dryer and blankets. The inside of the cabin is beautiful with vaulted wooden ceilings, wood floors, and a cute little loft. The porch has rocking chairs and a great view of the lake and surrounding trees. Be prepared for some narrow roads on the drive up. The hike to the dock is short and fun, and a little steep, but not bad at all. This is a unique place to stay. It really is the perfect place to getaway/hideaway. When we were looking for a place to stay, we couldn’t believe how many lavish reviews there were...but now we know why!

!! OUR NEW ANNUAL family spot!!! From the amazing apple orchard road with fried apple pies, to downtown Blue Ridge shopping, Amish stores, gorgeous downtown Ellijay, private lake with boat, endless hours spent rocking in the chairs watching and listening to nature, making s’mores around fire pit with the most beautiful view, to my favorite hike ever at Amicalola Falls, you name it this place has it. Your so high up that you feel nestled in the trees with a breathtaking view. You drive up the mountain on a steep winding private drive. There are other homes around the lake and our experience was unaffected. This is a true mountain home. In my book the perfect 5. Booking next year now.

We loved our stay at the cabin! It was so peaceful and just hidden away enough. Everything was squeaky clean and well stocked. Sheena was very communicative and readily available to answer any questions. It was a perfect cabin experience overall. We will definitely be booking again!

Sheena’s place is great for anyone that is looking for a mountain getaway. Firstly, it is super clean and very well furnished. You have all you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in the mountains and on the lake. It is super close to downtown Blue Ridge and many outdoor activities. My family and I have enjoyed Sheena’s place so much we are repeat guests. You would be hard pressed to find a better value.

This place is a perfect 2-3 day getaway spot. It’s great for 4 people but sleeps up to 6. Sheena is a rockstar of a host. She was super quick in her responses and took great care. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay in Sheenas cabin again in the future! Highly recommend the host and the cabin!

The house is amazing. Bring binoculars because there is a lot to take in. Between the view from the deck to the local wildlife, you’ll appreciate having them. The house sits a ways back from the lake and is the one thing I wish I had brought. Propane grill onsite, perfect for saving money and cooking in. Definitely check out The Fainting Goat Winery.

What a perfect little cabin for my family of 5. The deck and views are amazing with lots of lake critter sounds both day and night. It’s a private space with neighbors close by but we never heard or saw them. The cabin is nicely decorated with no shortage of blankets, pillows, and games to play for kiddos and adults. The fire pit and provided wood made for lovely evenings. Beds are super lush and comfy. Our girls loved spending time down by the lake in the hammock. We’ll definitely visit again. Thanks, Sheena!

Wow!!! The cabin is even better then in the pictures and descriptions. My family of 7 was able to comfortably be accommodated for our stay. If you are looking for a peaceful get away, this is the place you are looking for. The lake seemed to always be calm and perfect for the row boat. We were not able to catch a fish at the cabin but there are plenty of good spots locally for fishing if license is purchased.
We will definitely be looking forward to coming back here. Sheena is a great host and has created an amazing retreat. Thank you!

Great style and comfort! The outdoor fire pit was a cozy place to spend the evening. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Had fun with the foosball table. The small lake was a treat to kayak around. A good work out going up and down the 128 stairs to the lake! We left inspired, loved it.

I can’t say enough about this cabin. The pictures seriously doesn’t do it justice. It was very clean. We had a special gift and a hand written note when we arrived. Very easy checkin with a key code. Directions to cabin were easy to follow. My new favorite in the area and plan to book again in the future.

Everything was exceptional. Sheena was amazing. Quick with responses and just such a super person. The cabin was better than described. It kept my 8 years olds occupied and they actually learned how to relax and take it all in. I would (and have already) recommend this listing to anyone. I would suggest for your first time traveling to it, do it in daylight. It will help you find it and you can make yourself markers/landmarks for the next time. We would love to return again and would definitely book this cabin again.

Sheena’s cabin at Hidden Lake is absolutely amazing! The first trip up the mountain to the cabin is tricky but once you do it once it is easy and a fun drive! The view is beautiful! We had our 19 and 18 year old kids with us and they really enjoyed just hanging out in the woods and in the boat on the lake. We took Sheena’s advice and went to Amicalola State Park and hiked up to the waterfalls. It was worth the short drive and hike! We can not express how much we appreciate Sheena’s willingness to share her cabin! We have been renting various vacation places for years, this cabin is at the top of the list!

We stayed at Lake Hideaway 2 for a mini family vacation. We had an amazing time! Not only is the property beautiful and the home tastefully decorated, it was spotless! Sheena even left us a wonderful welcome note and gift and provided us with everything we needed for an amazing get away! Thank you, Sheena, for making your home so warm and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

My family and I enjoyed staying at a cabin that had a luxury feel.
I appreciated how everything was thought out regarding video games and other games for our son and friend to keep them entertained.
The detail to how clean the cabin was is something I was very happy to see.
Sheena went out if her way to create a space that felt a home away from home.
We will definitely visit again.

The drive to the cabin is very steep and narrow. Don’t not recommend traveling at night, can easily become lost. Pulling up to the cabin, is exactly as pictured. Large walk out deck with fire pit, over looking river. Absolutely beautiful views. Very secluded feeling but you can see neighbors. The inside is phenomenal, warm, cozy and homey decor through out. The perfect winter cabin supplied with plenty of wood for outdoor or indoor fire. Through the house you’ll find soft blankets and small touches to make your stay comfortable. The bathroom amenities smell amazing! We enjoy two home cooked meals on the grill, and in the kitchen. The kitchen is fully stocked to accommodate cooking a large meal. Pots, pans, utensils, plates, mugs, wine glasses, seasoning..everything! There’s even board games and tons of movies. Perfect for a family getaway. Highly recommend. We will be back

Sheena was an amazing host, she was easy to reach and always very kind. We stayed in the cabin for our wedding anniversary and upon arrival we were greeted with a gift and handwritten card. Very thoughtful!
The cabin itself is beautiful, the deck and firepit area was lovely. I loved the upstairs bedroom, specifically the deck and the hammock chair! The dock by the lake was a gorgeous spot to relax. Kitchen had everything we needed. My only complaint and it is VERY minor, is the bed pillows were very large and bulky. If, like me, you like a thinner pillow, I would recommend bringing your own!
Location is spectacular right by a peaceful lake and only 15 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. There is another cabin close by but we rarely heard our neighbors.
We loved our stay at Sheena's cabin and would come back again!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Sheena’s cabin! The location is definitely windy to get to but once you’ve navigated it a few times, it gets easier! The cabin itself has everything you could ever need and was incredibly clean and stylish! The views were breathtaking and Sheena was an amazing host! My husband went for a run most mornings around the lake, we roasted marshmallows in the fire pit many evenings, and enjoyed the games in the loft! Couldn’t be happier with our stay!

This is a beautiful cabin with a beautiful view! The pictures can hardly do it justice. Sheena was a wonderful host, and everything was just perfect for our stay. The only word of warning I have, though, would be to have your late sleepers upstairs instead of downstairs just due to the amount of creaking you can hear with every footstep. Other than that minor thing, everything else is seriously perfect!! Such a beautiful and comfortable getaway!

Absolutely superb cabin/home. EVERYTHING you would need and more for a mountain/lake getaway. Big enough for a large family and some friends, but was just as cozy for me and my wife. Have stayed at many cabins before, but this one definitely had the most "home" feeling to it. We were actually looking to book again while we were still there, but I guess we will have to hope for a cancelation as it seems many have found this gem as well.

We had a great stay at this cabin! It’s so cozy and rustic modern I loved all the cabin vibes it had! The views of the lake and mountains are absolutely beautiful. The fire pit and balcony with the hammock were my favorite. Sheena had everything you would need and more readily available. I would definitely return again in the future!

This cabin is tucked away but still conveniently located between Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Every room is decorated so beautifully and we had all we needed and more. We enjoyed s’mores by the fire pit, taking the boat out and fishing from the dock. My absolute favorite was the hammock chair on the porch upstairs. It was pure magic to relax on it while taking in the pretty views of mountain and lake while listening to the birds. We had a great time and can’t wait to come back.

As we drove up the mountain, away from civilization we entered into paradise. The smell of the mountain air was refreshing and the breeze cool! When we entered the cabin we were greeted with a personal Note and gift from
Sheena! The temp was perfect and the views even better! The place was spotless, and decorated out of a magazine. We had everything we needed plus more! The town was small and inviting and the people kind. We will all definitely be back!

The cabin was exactly as expected. The pictures do an excellent job representing the space. We had five adult guests and it was plenty of space for all of us. It was nice to feel completely out in the woods, but have modern amenities like Smart TVs, WIFI, and the Xbox360. The little touches around the cabin were thoughtfully done and appreciated. Sheena does an excellent job communicating and promptly provided all of the information about our stay. Our crew walked throughout the neighborhood/woods where everyone we encountered was very kind. My one piece of advice would be to take your own food with you from the start, so you don’t have to come and go. The roads up my the cabin are a bit narrow, so it’s just easier than taking multiple trips out.
I would highly recommend the cabin and wouldn’t hesitate to rent from Sheena again. ☺️

The combination of a good view and access to a small lake is a great combo. We spent most of our trip at the house and the kids enjoyed going out on the boat plus the games provided at the house. Inside is very clean and nicely decorated.
There are about three miles of roads to walk around the hose which we did each morning as we wanted to avoid busy trails. The outdoor space is great but could use some pressure washing/cleaning. I assume it must be tough to keep stuff clean outside.

Great place! We took our own kayaks and spent most of the time floating around the lake. The kitchen amenities were awesome and we enjoyed cooking all our meals there and spending time on the deck. It is close enough to downtown blue ridge to drive there for the day which is what we did one day. Would definitely love to come back!

OMG... where do I begin?
This cabin was the perfect retreat that me & my family were looking for since our original vacation plans were canceled due to COVID . From the cleanliness, home decor , location and the ambiance of the little gem in the woods is a great place for a little R&R. Me & my family feel in love with this place and we didn’t want to leave.. Sheena is a superb host!
You won’t be disappointed... we’ll definitely be back in the future.
Thanks, for the Sparkling Cider and the sweet note 🙂

Sheena is an amazing host and her cabin is a slice of Heaven on Earth. My family and I just returned from a long weekend at Lake Hideaway 2 and I can tell you with 100% sincerity that I have not been so relaxed in years. We spent one entire day sitting out on the deck, enjoying the scenery and conversation.... we had no intentions of staying in one spot all day, but it was absolute bliss out there! The bedrooms were all incredibly comfortable, and we all agreed that the beds and sheets were the best quality any of us have experienced at an AirBnB. The interior of the cabin is gorgeous! It is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. I cannot recommend Sheena's cabin enough. I hope I get the chance to go back some day.

Beautiful views! We spent lots of time on the rocking chairs on the wraparound deck. A small lake (w a boat) is right out your front door. We spent each day w outdoor activities such as mountain biking up rock creek road, walking/hiking at falls branch falls, and fly fishing in nearby streams and rivers. Very close drive to Blue Ridge and Elijay. The cabin was very comfortable and had everything we needed.

Lake Hideway was simply amazing. We stayed three nights in April and the views and weather were spectacular. Definitely plan to spend most of your time on the dock or rocking on one of the many porches. The house is extremely cozy with blankets in every corner. We were especially impressed with the comfortable sheets and stylish decor. We found the boardgames and Xbox a fun addition as well. We cooked breakfast and dinner in the kitchen which had ample spices and basic cooking supplies! Bring your own large dish if you need to bake a casserole or something similar. Downtown Blue Ridge was closed during our stay but was only a short drive down the mountain and has lots of fun restaurants and shops! The only downside was we didn’t plan to stay all week!

The owner has this place in pristine condition. Clean, all the amenities you can think of, warm welcome card with bottle of local peach cider. Comfortable beds, kitchen appliances, access to lake via dock. The owner also supplied us with fishing poles and life jackets. Super fast with communication. Amazing place with large patio with view of lake and mountains. I would definitely go back to this place again and will recommend anyone looking to have a good time at an amazing cabin with great host.

If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway I highly recommend the Lake Hideaway 2! It was so welcoming, cozy and peaceful. It’s not far from downtown Blue Ridge which has tons of great shops and restaurants. I highly recommend the Mist Mountain Hops restaurant. Everything was delicious! Sheen was the best host and made the whole process so easy! She’s even shipping back items that were accidentally left. I can’t recommend this place enough and can’t wait to go back and stay even longer! Thank you for opening your home to us Sheena!❤️

There were so many stylish and personal touches that added to the property. Sheena was an incredible host and responded very quickly to questions I had regarding the trip. We loved spending time at the property just relaxing and sitting by the fire pit and fireplace. She definitely made our trip memorable and we will be staying here in the future.

Hello Sheena. We loved the place! The location is fantastic! Immersed in nature! Excellent to rest and recharge our energies!
The house is great too. Everything was very very good. We loved the accommodations, total clean and organized, the decorarions, the fire pit on the deck, the view, the real fireplace at the living room. We are planning to come back in other season.
We would like to say thank you Sheena for your attention.

I work in the hospitality industry and have high standards when on vacation. The cabin surpassed my expectations. The space is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and so cozy. There were games for the family and a row boat to take on the lake. It was even decorated for the holidays! The beds were very comfortable and the view was amazing! It truly had everything we needed. The entire family (ages 6-48) fell in love with the cabin and we already can’t wait to go back!

Spent the week before Christmas in this beautiful cabin & it was well worth every penny. Truly the best of both worlds. Nestled in the mountains for privacy & within minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. Sheena’s personal touches made our stay relaxing as well as entertaining for the kids. The tiny touches of home made this family trip even better. Everything was super clean, and instructions for any questions you could possibly have. Stress free! The view of the lake will take your breath away!
Games & space to bring the family together, as well as a tucked away master suite for privacy. Sheena left sweet little welcome gift that melted our hearts from the moment we walked in the door. Our family was so sad to have to leave this little patch of heaven. We will most definitely be staying at this Hidden Gem for years to come!

I do not have enough words to describe the incredible week my family and I had during our thanksgiving stay. Sheena is responsive, kind and very attentive. The cabin was home away from home! Pristine and elegantly decorated (not the cheesy cabin decor).Fully equipped kitchen and the coziest throw pillows and blankets. The beds were so comfortable and bedding was clean and comfy. The views were incredible. We enjoyed nightly fires (fire pits) under the stars. I absolutely recommend Sheena! We are already planning our next trip back!

This little cabin was perfect for a peaceful weekend getaway with girlfriends. Our host Sheena was incredibly responsive and hospitable. The cabin had such a feeling of coziness and “home”. Lots of lovely little touches like plenty of lap blankets, fully stocked kitchen and bath, and deck seating to take in the view. Enjoyed a lovely evening on the deck by the fire pit. Beds were super comfortable and there was more than enough room for the 4 of us. Although we brought our own food, drink, etc... this cabin had everything we needed and we didn’t leave the entire weekend. Highly recommend. I’m certain we will be back!

The cabin was awesome! Well decorated with cute little touches all around. Very cozy! All the supplies you’d need in the kitchen were provided. The view was great! The chopped wood for the fireplace was a great touch. Plenty of movies and games to occupy your time if you’re not interested in leaving the cabin. The road to get to the property is pretty scary and has many curves going uphill on the mountain and it’s one lane. That was our only negative. Will definitely return!

I cannot begin to describe how wonderful this cabin getaway is! Sheena took so much care in making sure every detail was in place for us. Arrival was great with easy to follow directions and entry to the cabin. We were welcomed with a hand written note and some local sparkling cider! Everything felt luxurious and clean from the expensive feeling furniture to the comfy couch to the cloud-like bedding. As a group we absolutely loved roasting smores over the fire pit while listening to the evening mountain sounds. We had a wonderful time and will absolutely be back again!

We really couldn't believe what we had stumbled onto when we started checking out this adorable and welcoming cabin. There were so many little touches that made the place feel incredibly welcoming and comfortable.
Some things to note are that the stairs to the upstairs King Master suite are a bit steep, so if you have bad knees you may want to plan to stay in the downstairs queen bedroom.
The stairs down to the lake or also quite steep, so keep equally in mind.
The driveway can also be a bit tricky to get back out of but I do have a larger truck. I needed to use the 4wheel low function, but possibly a smaller car would have been able to turn around on the spot to make it easier.
Kitchen was well stocked for a rental, seasoned chefs may want to bring a few prep knives and a rubber scraper, as well as those less common spices and seasonings.
All in all an EXTREMELY enjoyable stay, well worth the cost. We definitely enjoyed the upstairs private balcony for an amazing view of Orion, Taurus, Eridanus, and many more constellations as well as some of the September meteor showers ❤️

The stairs down to the lake or also quite steep, so keep equally in mind.
The driveway can also be a bit tricky to get back out of but I do have a larger truck. I needed to use the 4wheel low function, but possibly a smaller car would have been able to turn around on the spot to make it easier.
Kitchen was well stocked for a rental, seasoned chefs may want to bring a few prep knives and a rubber scraper, as well as those less common spices and seasonings.

This cabin was excellent! It had a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need, beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms, amenities galore and an INCREDIBLE view off the back porch. Definitely worth the trip and we will absolutely be back. For those who aren’t familiar with mountainous cabin roads, just know this amazing cabin is definitely tucked up and away, and the road is narrow with occasional steep points. But drive slow and cautiously and you will be in paradise before you know it. Sheena was a terrific host who had thought of everything. If you’re thinking of staying at this cabin, don’t hesitate, just stay here!!!! You won’t regret it.

I highly recommend this host! Sheena was perfectly responsive and communicative anytime we had a question. My family of five (three girls - 9, 7, & 5) fit perfectly in this beautiful cabin. The location was great. It felt secluded, but with neighbors close by. The drive into Blue Ridge or over towards the Aska Trails area was lovely and not too far away. So many easy and fun things to do with small children (Lilly Pad Village, Mercier Orchard, Toccoa Valley Campground for tubing). We made good use of the grill, outdoor fireplace, and board games that Sheena provided in the cabin. Our girls insisted on playing “Sorry” every night- they are obsessed now. Great family bonding time. Also, the decor really elevated the overall feeling of the cabin. Super updated and so cozy. The beds, blankets, linens and towels were all really nice. The cabin was very clean. Overall, we really loved this place and would highly recommend it!

Sheena’s cabin is absolutely beautiful. My family and I enjoyed all the wonderful amenities the cabin had to offer. Sheena was a super attentive host from the moment I made the reservation to the minute we left making our stay one to remember. The cabin is so tastefully designed and decorated you won’t want to leave. We spent a lot of time hanging outside taking in the beautiful views and enjoying the nice breeze on the deck. I really can’t say enough about our experience. We’re looking forward to going back.

Where do I even begin ?! The space is GORGEOUS simple as that. The cabin was decorated beautifully not tacky like some cabin decor can be. This cabin is definitely more elevated in design and I appreciated that very much. The location can not be any better sits above a beautiful hidden lake with views as mountains as well. Plenty of room for the 6 adults in my party. We enjoyed the deck area , fire pit, lake with fishing poles as well as the boat you can take out. Close to Blue Ridge and Toccoa Valley Campground (tubing/rafting/trails) Do yourself a favor and book with Sheena now !

Beautiful immaculately kept cabin with everything you could possibly need for a mountain getaway. The home is decorated stylishly with comfy beds and plenty of pillows and blankets. Everything you could think of is there for you.
Aside from this perfect mountain cabin, an added bonus is Sheena, the amazing host, she was very accommodating and quick to respond.
My family and I can’t wait to go back.

The cabin was spotless with thoughtful touches throughout. Plenty of comfy pillows and blankets everywhere made us feel right at home. The outdoor fire pit on the deck under the stars was a highlight and the lake was gorgeous and fun for the kids. Sheena's communication was quick and accurate. We hope to rent this cabin again soon!

We stayed 3 nights in this beautiful cabin and wished it could have been much longer! The cabin has great outdoor spaces and is very comfortable and cozy! Every amenity you could think of was provided in this cabin! Very thoughtful of the owner. Close to Blue Ridge and great restaurants. Def check out the Pink Pig!

The property is just as described . We had a very relaxing , peaceful vacation at this home . The property is convenient to both Blue Ridge and Elijay . We had great communication the whole time with the owner and the peach cider she left us was an awesome and thoughtful welcome gift . The cabin was also immaculately clean and we had no problem with checking into the home . We would love to be lucky enough to stay at this location again in the future.

The cabin was everything that it was advertised to be. It was clean, bright, and stocked with everything that you need. Sitting at the kitchen table, watching the sunrise over the mountains and the lake was stunning. I loved sitting on the porch at night listening to all the crickets. It was close enough to everything but just far enough away from it all.

Beautiful Wonderful trip. Beautiful views. The drive there was intimidating(drop offs and sharp turns)The stairs outside are no joke! They are steep and a bit scary but the bottom is nice. We did have a lot of spiders and webs. I know you are in the woods so we did expect some but it as quite a bit. Overall, it was relaxing,great views,great communication with owner and quite enjoyable.

North GA getaway Lovely cabin with plenty of space. Just like other reviews definitely arrive during the day, mountain roads are super narrow. We were able to use google maps to find the cabin just fine, it had some of the road names wrong but the directions up the mountain were correct. Enjoyed the massive deck in the evenings along with the lake in the back. Quite the hike up the stairs from the lake but well worth the trip. Saw a few “bugs” in the kitchen but nothing too alarming and considering the location very understandable. Overall clean and would definitely recommend.

Sit Back and Relax Serious relaxation! We spent the first two days just sitting on the porch, watching the trees and water, and listening to nature. There are also things to do in both Blue Ridge and Ellijay for fun and nearby day trips. Amicalola Falls State Park was beautiful. Many thanks to our owner/host. Definitely recommend!

As frequent cabin "explorers" we've stayed in cabins from Alaska to Tennessee and this Georgia cabin has been our favorite! You can tell a lot of love and care has gone into the decorating, upkeep, and cleanliness of this cabin. Everything from the thoughtful organization of the kitchen to the bedding/pillows, displays an incredible attention to detail that adds to the overall comfort of this space. It feels like home! The lake is quiet and peaceful and although there are neighbors, this cabin offers ample amounts of privacy. My kids (ages 6 and 8) had so much fun playing outside on the lake and inside. The loft is equipped with board games, DVDs and a gaming console for rainy days or early mornings. There's even a little table up there that my kids were able to use for their crafts and school work.
Overall, we loved this cabin. Our favorite moments were early mornings when we'd sit on the private balcony, afternoon boat rides on the lake, and late nights around the fire pit. Thank you to Sheena for the handwritten card and cider. It was such a personal and thoughtful touch. We can't wait to come back!

Cabin was beautiful but the drive to the cabin was difficult. The road was one lane yet two-way traffic on a steep incline. The kayak was full of mud and the canoe was tied up on such a steep slope that we couldn't launch it. We chose this cabin because we wanted to do some paddling.
