Host was extraordinarily welcoming and the environment and setup of the cabin felt like you were back at home. Host made sure that all the essentials you might need were provided at the cabin and was nice enough to give enough to last a few days like toilet paper, paper towels, and coffee pods. One of the best getaways you could ask for, would absolutely return in the future!

The cabin was very cozy, big temperature difference between floors. Very clean, was able to cook full meals. Very accommodating for our 2 teens and small dogs. We had fun with the puzzles and games, and enjoyed the fireplace and firepit, and loved the sounds and the views. The beds were comfortable and appreciated the extra blankets. Host reached out before with any questions, but we did great and had a wonderful time. We really, really appreciated that it was decorated so nicely for Christmas. Coming from Florida, it was exactly the scene we needed.

Leave your troubles at home!

This was a wonderful cabin! The view was spectacular from the covered porch. There were cabins in close proximity but you would never know it because of the way it was situated on the lot—very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the fire-pit also and being able to have our pup with us. Lots to do in the area for those looking to get out. Perfection!

About the host

Hosted by Jamie Wilson

Host profile image
We are the Wilsons, a family of 4 native Floridians that fell in love with the Blue Ridge area. We like to invest in vacation homes in the areas we love to visit and share those homes with guests while we aren't in town. We currently host at our house on Lake Louisa in Clermont, FL and at our mountain cabin in Cherry Log, just outside of Blue Ridge, GA. These two homes exemplify our love for both the water and the mountains.

As experienced hosts, we know that cleanliness and responsiveness are the most important factors for a great stay and great reviews afterward! We are available 24/7 should any issues or questions arise during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the Lazy Laurel cabin in 2024. We found it to be the perfect location with a secluded feel yet centrally located less than 10 miles to either Blue Ridge or Ellijay. Even though you won't see any homes while relaxing on the property, our cabin is located at the dead end of a street with fewer than 10 homes. It is a quiet little neighborhood that is dog friendly. You will often see other owners and renters out walking dogs and enjoying the great mountain views.

What makes this property unique

The most mentioned features of our property are the secluded feel, the year-round mountain views and the constant sounds of the waterfalls in nearby Fightingtown Creek.
