Beautiful spacious cabin in Cooper Creek Wildlife Management Area (WMA). The cabin is on a hill with a hike down of about 300 ft to reach our over 500 feet of creek frontage on one of No GA's premier trout creeks. Cooper Creek is wide, trout-stocked, and always flowing. This cabin has mountain views, creek views and is on 6 acres of mountain property. Close to waterfalls, Toccoa River, the Appalachian Trail and many wineries. The cabin is about 20 miles from Blairsville, the quaint mountain village of Blue Ridge, and Lake Blue Ridge.
The all wood interior of the cabin (not an inch of sheet-rock here!) has 2 bedrooms, a sleeping loft and two large bathrooms. Each bathroom has double sink vanities. It comfortably sleeps 6. (One king bed, 1 queen bed and 1 double size futon in sleeping loft.) Washer and Dryer are available upon request. The cabin is decorated in a rustic-industrial-contemporary style.
The two story open concept great room features a soaring fireplace, and has has direct access to decks, the kitchen, dining area, and it is open to the staircase leading to second level sleeping lot and master suite.
There are generous decks (covered and open) on three sides of this D-log cabin. The decks are equipped with two lockable gates so that large areas of the contiguous upper deck can be secured. The front porch also has a lockable gate. A concrete patio runs the full length of the back of the cabin on the lower level, which has a 6-person Hot Tub. There is a gorgeous stone outdoor fireplace on an additional patio that runs perpendicular to the the covered patio.
A wide, graveled switchback enables direct access for those physically fit, to the primary creek area. Please be aware that the switchback is steep; we have equipped it with benches and other resting spots along the way. At the creek area, you will find ample seating, a grill and fire pit. There are great fishing spots in this creek and our guests can walk the creek freely on "our side" for up to 500 feet. There is a visible "End of Rider Property" sign.
We have created a walking trail right off the creek switchback, for our guests so they can traverse across our recently added 3 acres of property. The end of the trail provides a beautiful reward for that hike, as you can enjoy beautiful restful views of Cooper Creek.

Also, be aware that regardless of rigorous routine cleaning, the complete elimination of pet hair, dander, etc is near impossible.
