New Remodel, Enjoy the Cool Mountain Air, Sling, WiFi, Fire Pit, Doggie
*Jan 2025 Remodel* That's right, after 10 years with our humble abode we have updated the interior of the cabin!
Being an one of the Original Short Term Rentals on Cherry Log Mountain we are excited to share the updates with our past, future and return guests.
Getaway from your daily hustle and bustle at BlackBeary Cottage; a cozy two bedroom (with sleeper sofa), one bath cabin with room for six (4 Adults comfortably).
Relax with your favorite book in a rocking chair, roast marshmallows by the fire, hike the Benton MacKaye Trail(100 yards away), or fish one of 2 stocked lakes/ponds.
Within ten minutes you will be in the quaint town of Blue Ridge where you can enjoy fine dinning(Harvest on Main, Black Sheep Restaurant to name a few), take a ride on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, browse the many shops, or sample some local beer/wine. Or travel about fifteen minutes south to Ellijay, GA and visit the many apple orchards, taste some wine at Cartecay Vineyards or explore some history at the Tabor House & Civil War Museum. Bear Claw and Serenberry Vineyards in Blue Ridge is a short drive from the cabin.
Within a short distance you can enjoy white water rafting, horse back riding, hiking trails, fishing, canoeing, tubing, and some beautiful mountain views. If you enjoy playing some slots on your getaway, the Harrahs Casino is about 30 minutes away in Murphy, NC.
Although BlackBeary Cottage is a nice getaway to the mountains it has all the comforts of being at home: flat screen Sling TV, wireless internet, fully stocked kitchen, gas fireplace(seasonal), two bedrooms with queen sized beds, new washer and dryer, and a propane grill.
We have been hosting guests since 2015 and look forward to any questions you have about the property and area you are looking to visit.

The host was incredibly kind and attentive. My friend and I had a wonderful time staying here and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a mountain get away! 10/10 would definitely stay again.
host was very communicative, the cabin was as described, location was close to both Ellijay and Blue Ridge. No issues at all. Would definitely stay here again.
Great cabin for a long weekend getaway!! My husband and I take many trips to Blue Ridge in the fall/winter & this cabin was a great location! Probably one of the best locations we’ve stayed at in the area. Very close to downtown Blue Ridge and not far from Ellijay. We really enjoyed taking a hike with our 2 dogs on the trail near the cabin. It is a beautiful, peaceful area! The cabin was very clean and updated. We will definitely keep this cabin in mind for our next trip and recommend to family/friends. The owners were very responsive and easy to contact.

Glad you enjoyed the location and updates we made early this year! Hot tub is coming soon!
Charming cabin just outside Blue Ridge, GA. Loved the area and the host was great. Incredibly communicative and helpful. Will be coming back to Blue Ridge soon and I know where I’ll be staying.
This cabin fit our needs perfectly, it was clean, inviting and cozy. Front porch is perfect for sitting and drinking coffee. The winding roads to get to the cabin were also fun to drive on. The host were great as well.
Cozy little cabin tucked back in the mountains. My husband and I stayed four nights and enjoyed the get away.

Glad you enjoyed your trip! Thank you for the assistance on letting me know our brand new microwave failed. It was a pleasure buying a new temporary microwave until the new one is replaced. I can only assume that was the difference between 4 and 5 star rating.
Cabin was so clean. Good Communication with owner. Very steep roads (and alot gravel) Very peaceful place.

Glad you enjoyed it! There are 3 different ways to the cabin. It sounds like you went in on the road that has been dirt for years. It they just paved it with stone and chip. Once the stone gets packed it wont be as loose. Huge upgrade for sure!
Great stay! Owner very responsive. Very clean, quiet and relaxing. Clear directions from owner regarding directions to cabin. Would recommend those staying in cabin to have vehicle with high clearance. We came in a Highlander and had no problems.

Glad to have you! Any 4 door sedan is fine, just no low riders. Its the mountains. I had a chevy Malibu when we purchased the cabin.
This is our second stay with this owner and in this cabin. Everything is as listed and would recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Tadd Howard
My wife and I grew up south of Buffalo, NY in a small farming town. Since starting our family we have wanted to give our children a taste of the country living we were able to experience. Cherry Log is the perfect spot for us to be able to make unforgettable memories with our children, family, and friends. We are excited to be able to share our home away from home with you and your family and hope you too will make memories that last a life time.
