About this property

Mountain View, Private, Hot Tub, Arcade, 4br, 3 king beds, 1 queen and bunks!

Home away from home... With a VIEW! Sleeps up to 10! Built in 2022 with the character and decor of a rustic cabin decades older. We took great care to provide a spa like experience in the two master en-suites king beds), one more bedroom with a 3rd king bed and a 4th br with 1 queen and 2 twin bunks. Designed and custom built the cabin the way WE would want it if WE were guests.

Barkada Cabin is about the view, vibe, environment… A custom-built cabin get-a-way. Unplug, relax & reflect with friends and family. OUTSTANDING Mountain Views, dual covered porches, hot-tub and outdoor fireplace & fire pit in a private wooded environment. The secluded location on the mountain gives privacy with a view and only 10 min from the rustic city of Blue Ridge.

Love to cook? Our well-equipped kitchen is stocked with most every cookware and appliance. Enjoy grilling with our high end Weber grill. Chill in the media room with 75" TV to stream movies in Dolby surround seated in leather power recliners. Relive the 80's with the 60-game arcade table & Foosball.

Experience the conveniences of a modern home with the character of a mountain cabin. Tons to explore and experience within 30 minutes, like Tallulah Falls, Taccoa River tubing, Lake Blue Ridge swimming & boating, Vogel state park, Brasstown Bald, hiking trails and more! Weather not cooperating? Plenty to keep you busy at the cabin. So many places to soak in the long-range mountain view, 2 covered porches, hot tub and every seat in the house has a view. A wall of 22' high windows brings the outdoors inside.

Built GREEN! A high efficiency, super insulated home with 3 HVAC zones, you are comfortable all year round. Each of the 4 bedrooms is their own retreat. The large common areas, consisting of the family, game, and dining rooms indoors and a dedicated eating and separate outdoor living porch expand your choices even in inclement weather.

** 3 outdoor security cameras (Driveway, front door, and back yard), no living areas are monitored. Echo devices in living, master, and family room **

Perfect Blue Ridge Cabin
We recently stayed at Blue Ridge Mountain Cabin for a family reunion, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. The cabin's location just 15 minutes from downtown was ideal, offering the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. The well-equipped kitchen made meal preparation a breeze, allowing us to enjoy delicious home-cooked meals throughout our stay. The s'mores by the firepit were a hit with everyone, providing the perfect opportunity for quality time and bonding. The tastefully decorated interior and comfortable beds added a touch of luxury to our mountain retreat, ensuring that we felt right at home. Waking up to the beautiful mountain views each morning was truly a treat for the senses. Tubing down the river was a highlight of our trip, offering a thrilling and refreshing outdoor adventure for the whole family. The host's excellent communication and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Overall, Blue Ridge Mountain Cabin exceeded all expectations and provided the perfect setting for a memorable family reunion. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating mountain getaway.

Family Vacation
Amazing views! Great house. Definitely thought of all the small details. Enjoyed the outdoor areas. Cooked all evening meals with stocked kitchen and grill. Owners very responsive and informative. House is remote which makes the mountain views picturesque. Just note a dirt road with steep hills and holes especially when raining if driving a car.

Majestic views
We really loved our stay and the owners did a wonderful job with decorating and the small details: greeting card, wine and coffee beans, small appliances, kitchen utensils. We were amazed with all the little details provided. The house was immaculate and the mountain views from the main room, back deck, and hot tub is beyond what we expected.

Stunning Stay at Barkada Cabin
We have been to Blue Ridge a dozen times over the past 20 years. Barkada Cabin is far and away the nicest cabin we have stayed in. Calling it a cabin is truly an understatement. The finishings are second to none: from the exquisite bathrooms, to the full kitchen, to the wrap around deck complete with outdoor fireplace, ambiance lighting, oversized picnic table and a hot tub overseeing the Appalachians with a stunning view any time of day. Barkada Cabin is homey, roomy, and full of rustic charm; a perfect spot for a couple families to reunite and get off the grid. This mountain home also pays attention to detail, providing so many things the renter may forget: paper towels, laundry detergent, various soaps, Q-tips, dishwasher pods, etc., and every light switch is labeled- all very nice, thoughtful touches. There is plenty for the kids to do, as well. The basement is a true game room, and there are several huge televisions around the house for watching TV or to choose a movie from the vast assortment of streaming apps available. Finally, the firepit provides family fun outdoors- a highlight of our stay was roasting marshmallows one cool evening. Firewood on site was another convenience. Barkada Cabin really checks every box to ensure a return trip. Five Star vacation for us.

EXCELLENT!!
We’ve stayed in several cabins the last few years for family vacations. Our stays have been in Seiverville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Blue Ridge. By far, hands down, best cabin and hosts ever!! Beautifully appointed cabin and it doesn’t feel like a rental. The hosts thought of everything you might need away from your home. The cabin speaks volumes itself, but the host treat you like family. We’ve never experienced that before. We will be back!!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE
My family and I are very familiar with VRBO-type rentals, having used several over the last 15+ years. We are also very familiar with the VRBOs in Blue Ridge, having vacationed there via VRBO properties over the last 13 years. Specifically, we've stayed in 6 different cabins. This cabin and host are by far the best we've EVER experienced. The property is outstanding - not a single detail is overlooked. The communication with the owner was beyond anything I've ever experienced. The kitchen is stocked with excellent dishes and cookware. They even generously stock the toilet paper. if you're looking for a cabin in Blue Ridge, look no further - THIS IS IT!

5-star for inability to rank higher!!!
The hosts… communicative, friendly, responsive! The drive up… well-maintained, asphalt and gravel roads. No scary twists and turns. Just an easy country drive not far from the main roads Location… if you love nature, mountainous views, fresh clean air .. Barkada is for you! Gorgeous breathtaking views and crisp fresh air are plentiful The home… not a single detail left out. Everything we could ever think to need is provided. Order some groceries to be delivered and there’s no reason to leave this private oasis. Our visit was short and sweet. We had such a great stay and will certainly be back! Where luxury meets comfort!! 5 stars plus is our rating only because we can’t rate it higher!!!

AMAZING!! 10 stars!
My husband and I rent a lot of homes and many times the places are not as advertised. Pictures are outdated or there is no attention to detail. We are incredibly particular with where we stay and picky about the small things. That being said …. RENT THIS HOUSE! It is worth every penny. It is simply gorgeous. I think I read in another review that the pictures don’t do it justice and I agree. The rooms are spacious. The beds are comfortable. The pac-man game was a blast. The TV was easy to work (which seems small but is actually a challenge in a lot of places). There is another large living space with a huge sofa and TV in downstairs, which would be great if you’re traveling with kids. Though we didn’t actually cook this time, the kitchen has everything you need and then some, even the basics like oil, salt and pepper that so many are missing. The hot tub was hot and in perfect working order and the house is oh so private for that night time relaxation. The view is divine! And the attn to detail matches that I’ve only ever found at high end hotels. The hosts even thoughtfully left us a lovely note, bottle of wine, chocolate and coffee beans for our arrival and they were in constant communication with us, at the ready to help with anything we needed. ☺️ We couldn’t have asked for a better few days away from the stress of daily life and can’t wait to return when it’s warm enough to boat. My only caution is the last mile or so leading up to the house is wooded, gravel and narrow. Take your time, especially in the dark. There are some blind spots as you crest a couple of hills on the road. But don’t let this deter you from staying at this special place! Just be aware is all.

Relaxing, Restful, Restorative!
Recently, my wife and I spent a couple of days (wish it could have been more) at the delightful, new Barkada cabin in Blue Ridge, Georgia. What a very special time, special place! Tom and Juvi (our hosts) have created a magnificent house in the mountains that, in so many ways, makes a vacation stay become that extra special place one can only hope for. So well designed and constructed with fine materials and furnishings, Barkada stands out from other mountain rental alternatives. The kitchen is so well equipped, and although we didn't do much cooking during our short stay, you could see how it would serve any occasion. My wife enjoyed the fact that the road access up to the property was not a cliff hanger, as she puts it, and the access into the house is very easy from the parking area. Full of a lot of extra touches, comfort and technological wise, this is a special place. Did I mention the view? Wow! A lovely stretch of the North Georgia mountains lays out before you, visible at all 3 levels of the house. I spent one afternoon sitting and watching the different hues of color and shadows and light sweeping across our mountain vista. As it sleeps 10, without asking anybody to endure a night on a fold out couch - ha, this vacation destination is one that's going to provide the best 'relaxing, restful, restorative' experience for many years to come. Thank you, Tom and Juvi!

A Dream Cabin
Tom and Juvi’s cabin is like a dream. We wanted a place to relax and spend time with our four college aged kids, and this cabin offered us so many creative spaces to make memories. The hot tub overlooked the mountains- where we watched unbelievable sunsets. The kitchen was amazing. It was spacious, well equipped and we spent time cooking- we had no desire to leave to eat out. The beds were beyond comfortable and the showers were Amazing! There were walking trails and lakes to fish close by to the cabin. Every corner has thoughtful attention to detail- from the throw blankets by the fire places, numerous board games and an arcade. The house was super clean and private and our hosts were super responsive and friendly. You and your family will be so happy and pleased at the Barkada Cabin.

Perfect in every way!
Barkada Cabin is simply ... stunning! From the moment you walk into the soaring great room with the giant windows looking out at the Blue Ridge mountains you know you're in someplace special. This cabin has everything you could ever want in a mountain vacation rental -- and I mean everything. All weekend we kept saying, "And they even thought of (fill in the blank)." And it's just 10 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge, so the location is also perfect. I could go on an on about all the cool features of Barkada but suffice it to say: This is the perfect mountain vacation rental. Look no further.

About the host

Hosted by Tom & Juvi Schroth

Host profile image
Hi, we are Tom & Juvi the builders/owners of Bärkada Cabin in Blue Ridge, GA. We had a vision to provide guests with a vacation home that WE would want to rent. A place where friends and families could meet and reconnect while unplugging from their busy life. The name, Bärkada has special meaning to us as the word is of Filipino origin meaning "A meeting of friends" The first part of the name, "Bär" is German for Bear as such, Bärkada Cabin represents both or our heritages. We have been in the real estate industry since 1993, selling homes as a Realtor, managing rental properties and doing remodeling, flips and building. With 3 decades of design/build experience we set out to create a cabin combining the best attributes of other mountain cabins in a format where you would enjoy the same amenities and comfort of your own home with EXTRAS to make your stay more comfortable and memorable.

Barkada Cabin represents our first build from scratch. Starting with a wooded mountain lot we took it from architecture and design to certificate of occupancy as the general contractor and builder. We participated in much of the physical construction as well as all the furnishing and decorating. This was a huge project for us but a labor of love that resulted in a second home that they enjoy with their two children and hopefully future generations.

Why they chose this property

We set out to create a cabin combining the best attributes of other mountain cabins in a format where you would enjoy the same amenities and comfort of your own home with EXTRAS to make your stay more comfortable and memorable. This view demanded something special be built at this location so we leveraged our 3 decades of design/build experience to create a plan that was as view centric as possible with both inside and outdoor living areas.

We wanted something secluded, but not isolated. While we have some neighbors, they're few and far between and you won't notice them unless you're looking for them and then only in the winter. As a second home for us we wanted to make sure that we duplicated everything you would have in any modern residential home. This includes a large kitchen area with everything you need to cook entire meals. We found that we love to stay at the cabin most of the time and do as many meals in the house as we can.

There's plenty to do without even leaving the cabin and if you like to cook, you'll find the kitchen is well stocked and can handle just about any meal. If you like to cook out, the Weber gas grill will spoil you!

You might never leave the cabin during your stay… Four large flat panel TV's and a media room with fully reclining leather chairs and surround sound, a 60-game arcade table, a selection of puzzles and board games and plenty of areas to hike right outside the door!

As a building science (yes, that's a thing) enthusiast, this 2022 build included some cutting-edge elements like spray foam insulation, Zip board, DC inverter heat pump heating, hybrid heat pump water heating, instant hot water at every faucet and a fully insulated concrete slab. You will find Barkada Cabin safe, efficient and environmentally friendly.

What makes this property unique

Something you won’t know unless you rented in the mountains before is that many (most) of the mountain homes, especially the ones with a view, have narrow and steep roads. They have no room for two-way traffic and take a long time to get to the cabin even though the distance is short. Having toured many comparable cabins in the area, I would not trade even their paved roads with our gently sloped and relatively wide hard packed road. Our community is right off a main road so it's not a burden to run into town or go exploring.
