Overview

Awenasa (the Cherokee word for 'my house') is a cozy cabin on a private acre of land, but with access to hiking, neighborhood lakes, mountain views, the Aska Adventure Area, Lake Blue Ridge, Carter's Lake, and other lakes within a short driving distance. The Benton MacKaye hiking trail runs through the neighborhood and there are other local hiking trails. Blue Ridge and Ellijay, GA both have great shopping, antiquing, galleries, festivals - apples in fall and peaches in summer. Horseback riding, canoeing along the Toccoa River Canoe Trail, tubing, and charming dining experiences await you during your visit. Best of all, sitting on the screened porch, watching the birds and wildlife, or enjoying a fire in the fireplace indoors or out, and relaxing in rustic decor provides a perfect getaway for a short weekend or a longer vacation.
In all this rustic paradise, you still have all the comforts of home if you like, including internet, satellite, movies, and games. Whether a romantic weekend for two, a girls' getaway, or your family enjoying the mountains, Awenasa can be your perfect mountain retreat.

About Patti Zimmermann
My wife and I built this cabin in 2001. We have 7 dogs, 2 cats, 1 Parrot, 9 chickens, 5 horses and 1 donkey! We live in Ball Ground, GA which is about 1 hr. drive from the Cabin. We enjoy traveling with our dogs, and some of the cabin decor are antiques collected from around the country during our travels. We love the outdoors, good wine, good food, and interesting people and places.
Patti Zimmermann purchased this cabin in 2001
Why Patti Zimmermann chose Northwest High Country
We chose this location because it's close to home. We enjoy the privacy of the 1 acre mountain property, however having some people close by for socializing or in case of an emergency. The city of Blue Ridge is full of little shops, and also offers the Scenic Mountain Railway. It's a very pet friendly town, with lots of activities. One of the only first run drive-in Movie Theaters in Georgia is just the fun way to end the day in town. Then, come back up the mountain and enjoy the evening on the porch with a glass of wine...
What makes this cabin unique

Reviews
Wonderful!
4.8/5 -

Very enjoyable and relaxing time away from home in a beautiful part of Georgia
Nice quite location to unwind and enjoy nature. Really enjoyed relaxing on the screen porch in the morning with coffee and late in the afternoon with wine. Cabin is very well appointed and we lacked for nothing.
Cozy Cabin - Perfect Getaway!
My husband and I needed to evacuate for Hurricane Irma with our dogs. We are so pleased that we found this beautiful cabin! It was the perfect size for us and had everything we needed. It's very reasonably priced and well kept. I had to work at times and the internet worked perfectly! The owner was very kind and hospitable. We would love to come back. Next time it will be for vacation instead of evacuation!
Quiet and well equippped cabin in a perfect location.
This cabin is an absolute gem! My wife and I wanted a little weekend getaway so I found this cabin and booked it. It's in a very nice neighborhood on a mountain and very quiet. It's only a few minutes from downtown Blue Ridge so going to the shops and dinner was super easy.
The cabin is well equipped with anything you'd need to cook or feel at home. The decorations are very nice and the bed was very comfortable.
We loved the nice screened in patio to just sit and read in. The dining area is also great with windows on all sides overlooking the woods.
Overall we'd give it a 10/10, no complaints, and we would love to return sometime soon. Will also refer to any family or friends looking for a good retreat.
Cute little place
Very quiet. Nice friendly neighborhood. Cabin was well stocked with the essentials (including some doggie toys and bowls). Limited storage space to unpack your stuff. Unfortunately Wifi was down during stay but owner did try to take care of (I understand dealing with little cable companies). We felt safe and would love to visit again when the weather is cooler.
Cozy Cabin
This cabin was very clean and cozy. Came stocked with everything. Would recommend, we had a great time.
Pleasantly surprised
The place was very clean and well stocked, we didn't need to bring a thing, besides our personal belongings. The road up and down the mountain was a little hairy, but once we got used to it we were fine.
