Located an hour north of Atlanta in the gated mountain community of Big Canoe, this one-of-a-kind rustic log cabin is truly unlike anything you've ever seen.

The cabin was originally built in Virginia in the mid-1800s and features hand-hewn chestnut logs 26 feet long and over 20 feet wide. In the spring of 2005, the original structure was carefully dismantled, and the logs were tagged and shipped to their new home in north Georgia. Over the next two years the cabin was re-assembled, and a new wing was added on the rear to house a large kitchen and dining area.

A stacked-stone fireplace soaring over 20 feet high greets you as you walk throuhe front door. Overlooking the main room is a loft bedroom (plus a full bath with a clawfoot tub). Kids will love the bunk room on the main floor that features beds hand-made from reclaimed barn timbers.

As you walk from the main cabin on your way to the kitchen, you'll pass by an oversized and inviting window seat that's perfect for an afternoon nap. The flooring and walls in this cozy room are also treasures from the original Virginia cabin. Overhead, timbers and ceiling boards from a second hundred-year-old cabin add to your journey back in time.

Upon entering the kitchen, you'll find all the amenities and conveniences of a contemporary suburban home, with accents such as granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. But there are still reminders of days gone by. The farmhouse table was fashioned from decades-old barn wood and sections of logs that were unused in the cabin re-construction process. Overhead, exposed rafters are yet more remnants from an early settler†large screen porch off the kitchen offers you a great place to relax. The custom-built swing is seven feet long and is literally large enough to sleep on, flanked by a one-of-a-kind outdoor recliner that affords you a great view of the creek below.

Downstairs, two more bedrooms and a full bath give you ample accommodations for up to eight or more.

  • We absolutely loved our stay at the cabin! We were in desperate need for some R&R and this was the perfect place to get it. So quiet and calm. We sat on the screened back porch during a rainstorm and just drank in the calm. We love to cook, and enjoyed the gorgeous modern kitchen - it felt like Tuscany! We enjoyed every little detail, and have already recommended this place to several friends!

  • We had a wonderful time at this rental in Big Canoe! We spent a fall weekend with friends enjoying all this cabin has to offer. The details of this cabin are amazing; we spent much of the weekend admiring the blend of rustic and modern decor. The screen porch is a great place to spend a few hours relaxing and you have everything you would ever need inside. The kitchen table is very large with plenty of room for everyone to gather around. We definitely plan to go back and I would recommend this rental to anyone!

  • We stayed in this beautiful cabin and had a wonderful time. It is rustic, but elegant at the same time. It has the feel of an old mountain home with the warmth of modern technology and appliances.

  • We enjoyed our stay in this cabin so much! It is beautiful and it was so peaceful and relaxing. Everything about the cabin was wonderful. We had a total of 7 adults and 5 children and we all had plenty of room and enjoyed our weekend. We can't wait to go back again!
