About this property

The Blue Canoe | Cozy Lakefront Getaway in Blue Ridge | Rustic and Elegant

Welcome to The Blue Canoe! This upscale Lake Blue Ridge cottage is a lake or mountain connoisseur’s dream! Whether you want to soak up the lakefront view from every room, sunbathe on the second level of the dock or enjoy a glass of wine by the fire-pit, this unique property has something for the whole family.

Surrounded by United States Forestry Service, our cottage is perfectly situated off Aska Road, near hiking and biking trails and within a short drive to the shopping and restaurants of downtown Blue Ridge.

Regardless of the adventure you’re seeking, you’ll have a great appreciation for The Blue Canoe – located only feet from Lake Blue Ridge with 331 feet of shoreline, properties like this can no longer be replicated.

The property was tastefully updated mid-2022 to include a professional interior designer’s touch (rivals Highland’s and Cashier’s luxury), new appliances, three TVs and a fabulous blend of updated, yet comfortable furnishings. If you need to work lakeside, a tasteful office space is situated on the bottom level with wireless/ethernet connections and quality internet.

As an added feature, we also have a pontoon available for rent, giving you the opportunity to explore the lake...and the best part, the boat will be at the dock upon your arrival! Already have a boat? Feel free to bring your own as well!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The Blue Canoe is a little piece of heaven in the woods and on the lake. While the road getting there is a little intimidating, it offers beautiful views and is totally worth it when you get there! It is cozy, warm, inviting, peaceful and offers a plethora of activities. The owner is most responsive and a pleasure to deal with as is the check in process. We are grateful to have spent 3 days there and wish it could have been longer!

Perfect Spring Break getaway

Loved this lake cabin. Owners did a great job with the upscale cozy cabin decor. Cabin had everything we needed for a short stay. Kids loved fishing & the kayaks. I loved relaxing on the upper dock reading and watching Bald Eagles.

Quiet Oasis

The Blue Canoe is the perfect retreat. My husband and I and three teenage boys soaked in the quiet, beautiful scenery all while staying active on the kayaks, fishing from the dock and building fires in the fire pit. The owners were super responsive, accommodating and friendly.

Great Stay!

Such a cute cabin and perfect for our girls trip. The cabin was adorable and the owners were great at communicating and very accommodating. The road to the cabin was a little intimidating (which I think is typical for cabin rentals) but completely worth it once we arrived and we have a wonderful time!

A peaceful and serene getaway! This home has the most gorgeous views! We enjoyed taking the kayaks out as well. Love Lake Blue ridge and the Blue ridge area in general. Lots of beautiful hiking just short drives from the cabin location. We only used the main level of the home, as it was just us and our pups- which was a perfect space for us. And also yes the drive up to the cabin is a bit nerve racking especially if you encounter a vehicle going in the opposite direction - but worth it. Highly recommend The Blue Canoe!

My wife and I stayed here with our two kids (ages 5 and 10), and we absolutely loved it. The cabin is quaint, remote, and perfectly peaceful — a great place to unplug as a family. The pontoon boat was perfect for evening rides on the calm lake, and the kids had a blast exploring the shoreline and fishing off the dock. Inside, everything felt warm and cozy, with comfortable beds and a well-stocked kitchen. We ended each night around the fire pit under the stars, which was a highlight for everyone. The winding one-lane road getting in is quite an experience, but it adds to the charm and seclusion. A wonderful place to relax, recharge, and make family memories. We will be back!

This is a great, well appointed, rustic (in a good way), modern renovated cabin with terrific views. It is located on a private part of the lake with a fantastic boat dock. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy the lake and Blue ridge area.

About the host

Hosted by Britton Quintrell

Host profile image
The Blue Canoe is owned by The Quintrell Family (Weston and Chandler / Jim and Dani / Britton and Cassidy) which has been part of the Blue Ridge area for well over 100 years. We are excited to share our special property with you!

Why they chose this property

We had been looking for an investment property on Lake Blue Ridge for quite some time when we found this property. After looking at a few others, we knew this was the one. The Blue Canoe is surrounded by USFS land and perfectly placed close to the water in a deep section of Lake Blue Ridge. During the summer, the water under the dock is approximately 56 feet in depth. Come join us!

What makes this property unique

When looking for property on Lake Blue Ridge Property, we were looking for classic Blue Ridge charm, an incredible lot and a place to truly get away from it all. Many of the properties we perused were new and beautiful, but they were packed in Lake Blue Ridge coves and lacked the charm of a rustic cabin. This cabin is nestled between over 3000 ft of forestry service land in a wonderful subdivision called "Fish Hook Point". The current structure has been on the lake since the 1970s (within feet of the shoreline!) and has been tastefully updated. When we first purchased the property, it was a bit of a conundrum - the men in the family loved the classic, rustic feel of the cabin, and the ladies wanted to freshen up the space to have more of an updated and upscale, yet comfortable, look and feel. We brought in an interior decorator to fit the needs of all family members, and they did an incredible job of keeping the historic feel of the cabin while also updating appliances, furnishings, draperies and the like. We're proud of our little slice of heaven and look forward to sharing it with you and your friends and family.
