About Mary Spencer
Being a huge outdoor enthusiast, I have been visiting the North Georgia Mountains for years. The hiking is incredible, with marked and unmarked trails everywhere. The lakes are beautiful and so serene, plus the fishing is great. The towns of Ellijay and Blue Ridge are adorable and both have tons of great shops and restaurants. Makes it easy to enjoy all that nature has to offer and then be able to sit down at a nice "Mom and Pop" restaurant for some local trout and veggies. I bought my first little log cabin in 2000, which I thoroughly enjoyed with family and friends, so much so that I decided to buy my second one a few years later. Both of my girls grew up playing in the dirt, riding 4 -wheeler, picking blackberries and fishing in the creek. I now bring my 4 year old grand-daughter to the "cabin" so she can also have an opportunity to enjoy this amazing place and make some great memories.
I currently own 4 cabins ( all are listed on Homeaway/VRBO) and opened a company in 2010 called Morning Breeze Cabin Rentals, which manages a total of 60 log cabins throughout the Blue Ridge and Ellijay area. I would love for each and every one of you to come on up and experience all that the mountains of Blue Ridge have to offer. A lot has changed since the year 2000, we now have wineries, ziplines, fishing and hiking guides plus fine dining to add to the list of things to do and enjoy while visiting the beautiful mountains of North Georgia.
Why Mary Spencer chose Northwest High Country
I picked the Sunset Ridge for the incredible view and of course the fact that you could relax on the back deck and watch it set over the mountains. I also liked how roomie it was for my extra family and friends who liked to come visit. I added onto the already large outdoor deck with the outdoor fireplace so we could spend even more of our time outside. Even in the cooler weather the fireplace is a perfect spot to cozy up in front of with a warm cup of tea.
What makes this cabin unique
Very quiet since it's end of the road. I liked that it was only about 15 minutes from either town yet I felt like I was a million miles away from everything :)

Hot, but beautiful
Upon arrival at the cabin we noticed it was a beautiful view but a very warm inside. We read our note on the a/c unit asking guests to turn the unit back up to 80 when leaving in order to not be wasteful, and then turned it down thinking that must be the issue. Since it was so warm we decided to head out and run a few errands to give the house time to cool down because it was pretty unbearable at 3 in the afternoon to be inside. However, upon returning to the house we found that it was still 87 degrees inside with warm air blowing out of the vents! We placed a call to rental property emergency line only to be told that no one could get out to the house until the following morning, which was understandable since by this point it was around 7pm. We were very lucky that once the sun started going down there was a breeze outside and no rain, so we spent most of our evening outside enjoying the sunset and stargazing. Our air repair people did show up the next morning and got us all fixed up and the house finally started to cool down around 1:30 in the afternoon. It would have been nice to have been asked by the property manager if they could reimburse me at least some of the money paid given our inconvenience, but sadly you can't always get what you want. Besides all of that i would highly recommend this cabin to anyone, assuming that the air is fully functioning. The views from the whole space were exceptional!
Amazing view and incredible cabin!! So nice and roomy it was perfect for the entire famy
The cabin was very well maintained and the outdoor deck was huge. We loved that everyone had a place sit and enjoy the gorgeous sunsets
Wonderful experience!
We loved the cabin and particularly enjoyed the porch view. The only issue we had was the lack of insulation created a real problem for those sleeping on the main floor. Every step the guests took in the upstairs room and every creak of their bed was incredibly loud. We tried to use the box fan for a noise buffer, but it did not work properly. Other than that, we enjoyed the stay!
Wonderful Experience
Our stay at Sunset Ridge was spectacular. The views from the hot tub are just breathless. I cant wait to visit the cabins again very soon! Booking was easy and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The cabin was clean and the check-in/check-out process was very easy. We will be staying at this cabins again in the near future.
Wonderful view of Mountains
If you are looking for a wonderful view of the mountains this is the perfect cabin. The outdoor space is wonderful with the hot tub and outdoor fireplace on the main level deck. The layout of the cabin is nice also with bedrooms on different levels for privacy. Very cozy and nice decor also. I would definitely recommend this cabin.
Our stay at the Sunset Ridge was spectacular!!
What can I say about our stay at the Sunset Ridge cabin other than spectacular! The view of the North Georgia mountains from the enormous deck was breathtaking. We spent the night looking at the stars while sitting in front of the magnificent outdoor fireplace. This was only topped by the next morning when we watched the morning mist evaporate as we sipped our morning coffee while sitting in the luxurious hot tub! The cabin was very warm and inviting and extremely roomy and comfortable with plenty of places for the family to gather, spend time together and relax. This is truly heaven on earth and the most amazing vacation stay my family and I have ever had in the mountains. We will certainly be frequent guests and can’t wait to plan of next trip!

Sunset Ridge is located approximately 6 miles down Boardtown road, where you will turn onto Big Ben. Several miles up it dead ends into Gobbler Knob where you will experience a wonderful Sunset over the vast expansion of mountains from the extra large deck. It is located about 10 minutes from downtown Ellijay, where you will find plenty of antiques stores, shopping and restaurants. It is also 15 minutes from Blue Ridge, an upscale town with speciality boutiques and fine dining as well as the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad. You will be minutes from fishing, horseback riding and hiking can be done from the front door, with a moderate to intense terrain. There is tubing about 20 minutes away in both Ellijay and Blue Ridge, Lake Blue RIdge for boating, jet skies and fishing and whitewater rafting is less then an hour away at the Ocoee and a bit further North to the Nantulahala.
