Location: Blairsville, Northeast Mountains, Georgia, USA (two hours North of Atlanta)
Accommodations: Cabin, 1 Bedroom + Loft, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-6)
Keywords: Cabin
This cozy cabin is nestled high off Ivy Log Mountain, just a 2 miles outside the town of Blairsville. The privacy makes it an ideal romantic getaway or honeymoon retreat. If you need a place to chill so you can get an "Altitude Adjustment," this cabin is for you. It truly has the look and feel of a tree house. The interior walls are all natural tongue-and-groove pine, except for the master bedroom. There is a covered back porch with a swing and two rocking chairs that face the long range mountain view. A very large open deck comes off from the porch where the hot tub is located. On cold nights, you can snuggle up to the indoor stone fireplace. Or, if you are up for roasting marshmallows around a campfire, there is a newly renovated area below the deck including a firepit, picnic table, and bench.
There is plenty to do besides "chilling" at the cabin. Lake Nottely is one mile down the road and Lake Chatuge is ten minutes north in Hiawassee. You can take a very scenic drive over to Helen in 30 minutes. Vogel State Park is just 15 minutes south, and offers a variety of activities from paddle boats and miniature golf, to hiking trails and waterfalls. Antiquing, shopping, and golfing at Butternut Golf Course is just down the mountain from the cabin. Within one hour, you can be in the beautiful Nantahala Gorge white-water rafting.
The "Georgia Mountain Fair" happens in August.
The "Sorghum Festival" happens in October, which is PEAK season in the mountains!

Great Mountain Get-Away

My family headed up to this sweet cottage last October and had a wonderful long weekend. The views are beautiful from the porch and the house is so cozy and clean. It's close to everything - lakes, hiking, mountain top views, etc. The owners were gracious and so easy to work with. It was perfect family get-away.

I'm a teacher from Miami Florida, and after a year of school, 7th graders, parents, and traffic, I was ready for a quiet and relaxing time. That was exactly what I found. The cabin was perfect for 6 people, however we were only two. It was on the top of the mountain, surrounded by tall trees so it really looked like you were in a tree-house. Everything that I needed was there, and the little town of Blairsville was really close and convenient. Lisa was available and sweet. I will definitely stay here again...

We were pleasantly surprised to arrive at the cabin, to find everything very neat and tidy. The place is easily described as intimate and cozy, and was an absolutely perfect weekend getaway! Another pleasant surprise was to find all the comforts of home, including paper towels, dishes, salt, pepper, coffee filters... Certainly a nice touch! It felt like our very own little mountain cabin with everything you could need. Some would describe this as isolated and far away from things, but we absolutely enjoyed this aspect more than anything, the solitude, the isolation, the privacy. The nights were cool and quiet with not a sound to be heard, the hot tub and the view was the perfect addition to a romantic weekend. Blairsville restaurants are super close and convenient, Lisa was very helpful with everything. Not one single negative the whole weekend. This may very well be our vacation spot every few months. Perfect and much needed, relaxing getaway from the Atlanta craziness. The $65 cleaning fee is more than fair for all comforts of home provided, for guaranteeing a clean spa, clean sheets, and such a clean and tidy place. Thanks for letting us borrow your cabin for the weekend Lisa, what a treat! Shane & Heather
Owner response:It is our pleasure to share the cabin with others who love the mountains as much as we do.

My wife and I just spent te holiday weekend at the cabin and what a wonderful time we had. The home is very comfortable with spectacular views of the mountains and at the hot tub at night with the view of the stars was exactly what we needed after hiking all day. We are looking forward to the next time we can visit in the near future.

The cabin was very nice and we enjoyed our stay very much!!! However, a $65 cleaning fee should not be required when you ask visitors to do several "chores" before leaving the property.
Owner response:The $65 cleaning fee covers spa service, laundry, bathrooms, and floors. Prior to leaving the cabin, we do require our guests to place all wet linens and towels in the bathtub. We ask that the beds used are stripped, all dishes & pans are placed, and all garbage is disposed in the outside trash bin on front porch. :)

Thanks for the relaxing weekend at your cabin! We loved the convenience of the location, however you still felt removed from town, and we were fully able to enjoy the peacefulness of the mountains.
