Pet OK-Lakefront Cabin w/Amazing Views-Hot Tub

The Escapes by Dave presents The Lakeside Escape, a charming log cabin with modern rustic decor and amazing mountain and lake views. It has its own private trail down to the lake, where you can enjoy fishing from our dock and taking in the scenery! Along the trail are 2 outdoor fire pits, one of which is lakeside. Enjoy the fire while lounging in our comfortable, oversized adirondack chairs, while making S’Mores, sharing stories, and making memories!

***PLEASE NOTE - the lower level suite is only accessible by OUTDOOR stairs. There are no interior connecting stairs with the main level.***

Our cabin is located in a picturesque community on a mountain with other cabins. You must drive up a winding road up the mountain to make it to our cabin. 4WD is not necessary; any vehicle can make the trip. We recommend driving during daylight until you are comfortable with the road.

We are located on a quiet road. However, noise travels on the mountain. We have neighboring cabins on either side that are also vacation rentals (a small cabin is 20-30 yards away and the other is 50-60 yards away). If those cabins are occupied during your stay, there is a possibility that you may hear those guests. Quiet hours are observed from 10pm-7am.

PET-FRIENDLY - up to 2 pets are allowed at a rate of $150/pet. For example, 1 pet would be an additional $150 per reservation. Two pets would be an additional $300 per reservation. For the safety of your pet, you must bring a pet crate. If your pet is left unattended, they must be placed in a crate indoors with access to food and water. Time left unattended should be kept at a minimum. Be aware that we do have bear and other wildlife activity consistent with mountain life in the area so pets and children should not wander the property without adult supervision.**

We have 2 expansive decks that are perfect for dining outdoors, rain or shine, and enjoying the breathtaking view. There is a variety of comfortable seating from rocking chairs to lounge chairs, along with a gas fire table to enhance the ambience.

There is a private trail that is well lit at night from our cabin down to the lake, which is about 300 ft from the cabin. There is a downward incline going to the lake and an upward incline back to the cabin. You will get a great workout! Along the trail, you will find a fire pit near the cabin and one that is lakeside. The lake is great for fishing, kayaking, and paddle boarding - bring your own equipment! There are several kayak rental places within 20 min of the cabin. Swimming is at your own risk. We have seen an occasional swimmer, but it is generally not recommended due to the muddy bottom and algae.

Our large hot tub seats 6 and is located on the covered lower deck so it can be enjoyed in all weather! It is the perfect place to unwind and soak in the view. Please note that the hot tub is emptied, sanitized, and refilled with each reservation.

Centrally located between Downtown Blue Ridge and Ellijay Circle, the Lakeside Escape is a rare find. Venture out and visit attractions such as Falls Branch Falls, Mercier Orchards, Old Toccoa Farm, and Expedition: Bigfoot! The Sasquatch Museum. The Lakeside Escape is a true gem nestled in the Hidden Lake community.

This 2 bed/2 bath/loft cabin sleeps 8

- Private lower level king suite equipped with a 43" Roku Smart TV **only accessible via the outdoor lower level deck - no interior stairs**
- Main level bedroom with a queen bed equipped with a 43" Roku Smart TV
- Open loft with 2 twins equipped with a 32" Roku Smart TV
- Comfy queen sleeper sofa in living room equipped with a 65" Roku Smart TV

Our living room features several fun family games and playing cards. The loft area also has a foosball table.

Our kitchen is fully stocked with cookware for all your cooking needs, a slow cooker, along with a Keurig in the kitchen and lower suite, a variety of Starbucks K-cup pods, a drip coffeemaker, a small french press, and a selection of Tazo teas! Please note that we do not have a dishwasher.

The property is completely zoned with heat and air conditioning to allow for a comfortable stay in any room.

This cabin, like most homes in the mountains, uses a septic tank. This is a delicate balanced biological system. Please help us keep it working seamlessly by only flushing toilet tissue. Guests will be responsible for any damage cause by flushing any objects not meant for the toilet.

Our home is professionally cleaned using antimicrobial solutions after every stay to provide a fresh space for the next guest.

**We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance ahead of your stay. This will protect your reservation payment in case of illness, unforeseen emergencies, undesirable or severe weather, job or other life changes, or financial hardship that may cause you to cancel your stay. Otherwise, if you cancel, you will lose your reservation payment in accordance with the cancellation policy in place at the time of your booking. We also do not allow reservation date changes or postponements. NO EXCEPTIONS.***

Really enjoyed the view and having a separate living space from the ground level living space. Warm and inviting on the inside, beautiful on the outside. Spent most of our time enjoyed by the fresh clean air.

A week in Cherry Log
Stayed for a week in this awesome cabin in Cherry Log. Everything is as advertised and the host was easy to communicate with. Place was clean and spacious with all the comforts of home provided. There were a few days during the middle of the week where we were the only people in that side of the neighborhood and we barely even saw another person. Really an awesome place. I don’t have any suggestions other than to stay here!

Fall in the Mountains
The cabin is exactly how it is described; the pictures are accurate. The host is incredibly responsive. We had a few very minor issues that were resolved immediately. One feature that worked very well for us was the enclosed deck. We could let our dogs onto either the upper or lower deck and they were safe to go up and down as they pleased. There is a gate leading to the gravel parking area that allows for quick access to the car. The cabin is clean and well stocked. Plenty of paper items (paper towels, tp, tissue). Homedics noise machines by the beds. Thick, large towels. Comfortable beds and bedding. I was surprised to see a bear! I took the dogs out for a middle of the night potty break and there it was - about 10 yards away in the neighbor's parking area. Black bears are somewhat shy and there was no trouble. My dogs were both leashed and I kept them close to me. I am adding this in as a caution to anyone who brings their pet - things could have been different if my dogs were off leash. If you enjoy traveling with your dogs, please keep them safe and keep them on a leash!

Time away
We enjoyed the beautiful view and quiet surroundings. The house was just like the pictures. Beds were so comfy and HC worked perfectly. The bedside sound machines were a nice touch, except we were so busy with so many tourist attractions that we slept soundly. My husband loved the large TV’s. Everything we needed was provided. Hoping to come again!

Close to Blue Ridge and McCaysville. The owners have basically thought of everything you could need or want other than your drinks and food. Anytime I’d say hey we should have brought…. It was there in the cabinet. The little extras like the s’mores ingredients and coffee pods made it that much nicer. I highly recommend this cabin

The cabin was wonderful and the view gorgeous. We enjoyed staying here. The downstairs bedroom can only be accessed from the deck below. It was not an issue for us and is clearly noted in the description. Something to keep in mind for families with younger kids. We will definitely consider staying here again.

Beautiful view
Our stay was very nice and we loved the beautiful setting of this cabin. One thing we didn't catch in the listing is that lower level is NOT connected via indoor staircase to the main house (my bad)... so my husband didn't like being separated from the kids and when it rained you gotta run outside. Just heads up for others, wasn't a big deal for us but still. And another thing is something that's out of anyones control... we had a rowdy party group on the lake sort of next door and they were a bit obnoxious as far as trying to be in the quiet nature setting. They left after 2 days so it's ok and not in anyones control... Overall we loved our stay and by the way- paved drive up the mountain definitely a huge plus!!! We have been up some mountains that was way worse.

Everything We Wanted In the Mountains
Great cabin in a beautiful location near a fishing pond with a beautiful eastern sunrise view from a location high up above the trees. Nice steep trails to pond and comfortable driving distance to many falls, lakes and vineyards. Elevations from 1500' to 4000'. Recommend SUV or truck for ease of access. Vacay completed as planned.

Hidden Gem
The property had lots of hidden unexpected surprises. We enjoyed the trail down to the lake. Our 8 year old had a blast with the dog with lots of things to explore. Every night we enjoyed a fire at each and every different fire pit the property had to offer. Super cute and equipped with everything we needed. Definitely would like to come back and share the space with friends and family next time.

Relaxing Spring Break
We had so much fun here relaxing on the decks, in the hot tub, fishing from the dock and kayaking. We spent the days outside on the water and the evenings around the fire pits. We were close enough to restaurants and grocery stores while still feeling like we were far from any busy-ness. We were able to go hiking, shopping in Blue Ridge & Ellijay, & play paintball when we wanted to do activities. The cabin was fully stocked and we enjoyed grilling and eating on the balcony. This is our last spring brew with our kids before they go off to college and it was perfect?! We will definitely stay here again!

We loved this cabin. Gorgeous location on the lake. We (the kids, dogs and parents) loved walking down to the lake in the morning and evening. This cabin is very thoughtful, it has everything you need and super clean. It’s also just a short drive to Blue Ridge, hiking and stores. We would love to go back to this cabin

Booked this property for my 51st birthday. It was absolutely amazing!! The views were breathtaking. Dave and Shannon went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect!! They were the best hosts! The first drive up and down the mountain was intimidating but we gradually became used to it. If you are looking to get away from it all or just want the mountain experience this is it!! Hopefully one day we can go back.😍

First time Blue Ridge
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Blue Ridge. The cabin was perfect for two couples. Each couple had their own separate spaces. The s’mores kit was a great “touch”. Furnishings were good looking, in great shape and clean. The best thing - the view!! Absolutely beautiful. Great large path down to the super calm lake, fire pit, and hot tub. I normally don’t like to stay in a place more than once, but this cabin may change my mind.

5 Star Cabin, 5 Star Host
The cabin was gorgeous with a spectacular view! The interior was beautifully decorated, the beds were comfy, the towels were big & soft! The host was exceptional and very responsive for any need we had. The only thing I’d like to highlight is the strenuous walk back up from the lake. My husband is active duty military, I’m a veteran, and my mother-in-law who stayed with us is in fabulous shape. That hike back up is difficult!! If you have people in your party who are aging or have physical difficulties, this might not be the location for you. Otherwise, it’s absolutely wonderful and we’d encourage anyone to stay here!
