Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Blue Ridge
After an exhaustive, one-year search we finally found "the one." In 2002, we purchased the premium, private, secluded lot that sits on top of Sunrock Mountain. We subsequently brought in a master craftsman to build a truly custom cabin. We tried to spare no detail in furnishing the interior with upscale lodge rustic décor. The close proximity to the city of Blue Ridge and nearby recreational activities was an added bonus. Located just 75 miles from Atlanta, it is easy to see why Blue Ridge has become such a popular North Georgia travel destination.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
The Mountaintop Getaway cabin is a luxurious retreat that offers a majestic, 70+ mile, year-round view of the Appalachian Mountains. The cabin is ideally situated in the heart of nature and tranquility on one of the most private lots on Sunrock Mountain. Again, the long-range view is simply breath-taking.
Mountaintop Getaway boasts a number of unique features like a 7-person jacuzzi hot tub that sits under a covered gazebo with a surround sound stereo system, a 100+ movie DVD collection, an outdoor fire pit, and wrap around bar in the basement. The cabin offers 3 spacious bedrooms, 3 full baths, a screened porch with fireplace, large deck for grilling out, air-hockey, Wii game system, poker/card table, and fully-equipped kitchen.
The cabin is located next to an abundance of recreational activities like white water rafting on the Ocoee River (home of the 1996 Olympic White Water Rafting Competition), horseback riding, fishing, boating, hiking , canoeing, and golf to name just a few. Of course, you are allowed to simply “chill out” and escape city life by taking a nap in the hammock, enjoying the fresh mountain air on a rocking chair, or walking down a nature trail.
The cabin was professionally decorated with high-end furnishings and lots of attention was paid to the little details. There are his/her robes, board games, and cookbooks. Pets are welcome. No smoking is allowed.
Owner's Map of Blue Ridge
It's been easy to see why Blue Ridge has become such a popular North Georgia destination since we first discovered the area in 2002. Throughout the year, our family has enjoyed vacationing because of the abundance of recreational activities like rafting, fishing, boating, and hiking. The pristine beauty of mountain landscapes, trails, scenic overlooks, and rivers make for the ultimate getaway.
You truly have to stay at the Mountaintop Getaway to appreciate all it has to offer!

What a treat!

This cabin is nothing short of spectacular! After several visits to N GA in the last six months, this cabin has the best mountain views BY FAR! The view from both the top and bottom decks is absolutely breathtaking! We cooked every night and never needed a thing-which is unusual for a rental-and a perk! The couches are super comfy and the fire place in the living room kicks off major heat (unexpected of a gas fireplace). The hot tub with the surrond sound was an absolute must every day! Although the poker table could use a few more screws to hold it up :)-that did not stop us from enjoying poker and dice (chips, cards and dice all supplied! ). Needless to say, we will be back-SOON! Thanks to Dave and Chris for being so accomidating and responsive!

Nice Cabin

The cabin was exactly as described and the photos show an accurate account of the property. We were pleased with the amenities. Cabin was very clean...which is a must. Chris was extremely helpful in the reservation process and responded to all inquiries prior to arrival at the property. The directions were not very accurate, the internet access and the outdoor gas fireplace did not work while we were there. There were no starter soaps for the baths, only liquid hand soap. We attempted to contact Chris Friday evening and again twice on Saturday. He did not call back until 7:30 Saturday evening at which time he stated that it may be the following day before he got back to us about the internet access. One member of our party is on call 24/7 and requires internet access. He was contacted by his company while there and was unable to help. It is now Tuesday and we are back home and have heard nothing from him. Probably will not return.
Owner response:Frankly, we could have done better with Diane’s stay. In response to the feedback, I implemented the following changes: * Installed soap/shampoo dispensers in each of the three showers * Am having the cleaning/maintenance personnel test the gas fireplaces before each stay and Derek (owner of cleaning company) is providing his phone number at the cabin if any issues arise. He lives 10 minutes away and will be glad to assist guests with any problems. * I do not want to make excuses, but Chris (who helps me manage the property since I travel a lot for my job) did not have his cell phone charged on Friday evening/Saturday when Diane tried to call. * The internet access issue is a tough one. I cannot guarantee access from the provider (TDS) and the cabin is in a mountainous area. I did call TDS and had them provide instructions for how to test the internet connection by pinging the IP address. I’m going to continue to monitor the wifi service. Overall, the internet access has been very dependable in the past. I personally followed up with Diane and offered a complementary weekend at the cabin if she would like to come back. She indicated they only go once a year (in January) and appreciated the gesture. I do try to set very high standards and want every guest to have an enjoyable stay – hopefully, this is reflective in the culmination of all the guest feedback. Cheers, Dave (owner – MTG)

Perfect fall getaway

Review Submitted: 10/24/11
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at the cabin. Since our visit last year, there have been some improvements and additions that made the experience even better than before. Love the new comfortable couches and chair in the den! The fall leaves and the weather were perfect. It's a great time of year to visit (no bugs). We loved sitting on the deck wrapped in blankets in the morning to watch the fog rise up with the sun. In the evening, it was really cozy in the den watching the sun go down while sipping some wine in front of the fireplace. Very convenient that it's a gas fireplace so we didn't have to haul in logs and keep it stoked. The kitchen and game room are well stocked with everything you need. Our dog Harley loves the place and would ditch us in a heartbeat to live there year round. Thanks for the great weekend and we look forward to coming back.

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and enjoy some quiet time with the kids. We had a blast tubing, sightseeing, and enjoying the many amenities that the cabin offered. The kids loved the arcade games, hot tub, Wii, fire pit (where we roasted marshmallows & made s'mores),and playing with the outdoor frogs and bugs! My husband and I enjoyed the beautiful view sitting on the main deck. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!
Owner response:Thank you for the kind word about the cabin.We look forward to having you come stay again in the future with a 5% repeat customer discount. Regards, Chris-MTG

This was our first time in this cabin, and we wll be back for sure! The cabin was everything described and more. We loved the private location, and the view was breathtaking. We also appreciate that the owner allows pets. The arrangements were made without a hitch, and everyone was very nice. All in all, a great 8 days that we really enjoyed from the beginning to end.

My husband and I stayed in this cabin for 10 nights in February and can't wait to make our next booking. This property offers everything you see in writing and so much more. The cabin is absolutely beautiful and the views are out of this world. All of the pictures that are posted are exactly what it looks like. Very easy to find and the town of Blue Ridge has so much to offer. Make sure you check out downtown Blue Ridge..tons of shopping, great food, lots of activities and everyone was very helpful & friendly. We can't say enough about this cabin or how easy it was to book this cabin. We would highly recommend this to anyone!!!!

This is a perfect getaway. The cabin is beautiful, modern and very clean with wonderful huge windows showcasing the magnificent view. We enjoyed spending time on the screened porch and on the huge deck. The hot tub was an added bonus and the movies and games kept us entertained at night after a full day of hiking and exploring. Everything we needed was provided. We loved our weekend here and can't wait to come again. Our dog had a blast and wonders why we can't live here full time.

The cabin and the view are gorgeous. The cabin is large and has everything you could ever need or want. There are enough amenities to keep adults and children occupied and entertained. There is a vast movie selection, large televisions, a Wii, a Galaga/Ms. Pacman machine, games, books, fireplaces, an awesome outdoor pit fire area, jacuzzi, hammock, outdoor deck and screened in deck. The views are fantastic. We cooked every night and ate at the beautiful dining room table. The interior is very well decorated and intelligently designed. My dog loved the place. You will be very happy with this location. I recommend it without reservation and would return anytime.

The registration process was simple and the owners were so polite and easy to work with. We enjoyed the accommodations and especially the view! It was a wonderful place to get away for a long weekend with three other very close friends who haven't been able to spend time together due to hectic schedules adn travel demands.

We drove up from Atlanta to get away from the hustle and bustle for a few days. There was a beautiful fresh layer of snow on the ground and a perfect 50 degrees. During the day we relaxed played board games and drank bloody mary’s. At night we had great meals, soaked in the hot tub and had a bon fire and made smores. This was just the perfect environment for what we needed. We will recommend this place to all our friends and family. Thank you
