About this property

Best view in Georgia. Unbelievably peaceful. Amazing night sky.

20 minutes from Blue Ridge, Blairsville, and Murphy, NC. Only about 2 hours from the Atlanta metro area. Magnificent views from all 3 stories. 3 bed/3 bath plus bunk beds. 2500 sq ft - Large enough for families but cozy enough for couples.

When the sun rises you will often be treated to a giant lake of fog just below fed by Lake Nottely. At an elevation of 2,200 feet above sea level, we have a panoramic view of the tallest mountains in Georgia including Brasstown Bald and Blood Mountain.

The main floor includes a room with king-sized bed, full bathroom with bidet, laundry closet, open floor plan with fully-equipped kitchen, dining room, and living room with gas log fireplace. The living room has a large power reclining sofa and loveseat, 65" 4K OLED HDR Smart TV, and Blu-ray player. Internet is 250mbps+. A sliding glass door opens to a large wraparound deck that includes a covered seating area with a wood-burning fireplace and gas grill.

The top floor features a private primary suite with king-sized bed and large bathroom with bidet and separate tub and shower.

The basement features 100-year-old reclaimed wood for an accent wall and two barn doors. The bathroom features a fully tiled walk-in shower. Bunk beds are in their own semi-private space. The private bedroom on this floor has a queen-sized bed. There is a gathering space with gas log fireplace, 65" 4K Smart TV, Blu-ray Player, Xbox360/PS4, and surround-sound system for a great movie or sports watching experience. You can also step out onto the lower level wrap-around deck and enjoy the views.

Our cabin is situated on a mountain ridge. Access is easy for any vehicle. You will be far enough away from town to not hear any traffic but within reasonable driving distance of three towns with grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, and other necessities. A 25-minute drive will take you to Blue Ridge, Blairsville, or Murphy, NC.

Easy access to fishing and boating on Nottely Lake (15 minutes) or Lake Blue Ridge (20 minutes). Cherokee Nation Casino in Murphy, NC is less than 30 minutes away. Plenty of hiking in the Chattahoochee National Forest, Appalachian Trail, and much more. AllTrails.com is a great resource.

Perfect for R&R

After the close of the 2024-25 school year, my husband and I wanted to retreat to the mountains to recharge our battery. This was our first time to stay in this lovely cabin, and it was ideal. We mostly sat by the outside fireplace and read books and soaked in the awesome view. We have deemed it our new "home-away-from-home." When the timing is right, we will return.

A relaxing stay with fantastic views

Could not have asked for a more enjoyable stay. Communication with the owners was easy and they respond quickly. The cabin itself is so beautiful and clean. Also, an easy drive up the mountain making it easy to go into town and hiking to the waterfalls in the area. Our favorite part had to be the outdoor fireplace where we spent most of our evenings. If you're looking for a relaxing stay with beautiful views, we would definitely recommend this cabin. If you're staying at the cabin and you see

NYE Trip

This was an amazing cabin to be able to escape and enjoy time with friends to ring in the new year!!! It has plenty of room for everyone and was extremely clean! The property is secluded enough but close to plenty of places. We took a day trip to Blue Ridge and then the next day took a trip to Murphy to the casino!! We are already looking to stay again!!!

Great Escape!

This is a great cabin! Our group of ten was very comfortable. The deck and views were amazing. We spent most of our time around the outdoor fireplace. We found everything that we needed to cook, grill, and feel at home! The owners were wonderful- very friendly and quick to respond. It was a great place to escape from it all- that being said, it is kinda far from things to do. If you are looking for peace and quiet away from it all, this is the place!
Response from VrboOwner on 6 March 2020
We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope that you will visit again! When choosing the location for our mountain retreat we were looking for the perfect balance between convenience and genuinely being "off the beaten path." With so many options for shopping, dining and outdoor activities within a half hour drive in different directions it (hopefully) makes up for a few extra minutes getting to the nearest conveniences.

Peaceful Retreat

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful relaxing cabin. The view from the deck is far more beautiful than the photos posted. We spent many mornings and afternoons on the deck listening to the birds and even spotting some deer and turkey in the yard. The location for us was perfect. The cabin is situated near the top of a ridge with views on both sides and other than the sounds of nature, very quiet and peaceful. The cabin has everything and feels like a home away from home. We look forward to our next visit very soon!

Breath Taking View

It’s an amazing cabin with an incredible view...my second visit. Hope to come back in the fall. If you want to experience a relaxing and enjoyable vacation, this is the perfect cabin. We love the covered outdoor fireplace. It’s the focal point to gather after a day of exploring the area. .... I love the reclining sofas, the decor and the spaciousness of the cabin. It’s secluded yet close to all activities. Waking up to the breath taking view is the best way to start your day. The owners are attentive to any questions and most accommodating .

The cabin and view was absolutely gorgeous and very hospitable

My family and I spent the Thanksgiving holidays in Blue Ridge Ga and surrounding areas. We stayed in the Walk in the Clouds cabin in Morganton and it was everything we could ask for,plenty of room and a very homey atmosphere. We had adults we had a 9 year old and 6 year old and 17 month old children along with a 3 month old and had a very comfortable place and plenty to entertain all. We cooked our Thanksgiving dinner in a very well stocked kitchen so everyone enjoyed it just like at home except we had a spectacular view from high atop the mountain and every sunrise and every evening was something to behold. There is plenty of things to do within minutes around the area,I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to get away for a while.

Wonderful memories

We can boast being the first wedding at the cabin. The cabin was beautiful and we were married in front of the outdoor fireplace, with a roaring fire. It was a rainy day and the covered deck served its purpose. The cabin also served as our honeymoon destination and we were able to enjoy the start of our marriage in a beautiful place. We had a snag in the timing and the owner was so gracious in adjusting times for us. Thank you for allowing us to share this special time with our family and each other in such a beautiful place.

Stunning views!

We were initially worried that our trip would be spoiled by rainy weather, but that actually enhanced the amazing experience of the fog/clouds. The view from this cabin is only comparable to what I have seen in Wyoming and California - just breathtaking! We took all of our own food and stayed put in the cabin for the whole weekend - so peaceful. The cabin has everything you need and we spent a nice weekend away from the city just catching our breath. Due to the rain, we didn't get to see the starry night - but what a great excuse to return! :) Thank you, Chris, for sharing this amazing property!

Reaching the summit is always worth the climb!

We stayed at this beautiful home while we were in the mountains for my daughter’s Wedding in Murphy, NC. My niece’s family of five enjoyed the lower floor (the most adorable space!) to themselves, but joined us for meals on the main floor and we spilled outside to the covered deck while it rained. Another couple enjoyed the upstairs suite with its lofty bed and deep tub! We felt at home and found everything we needed, including a small stocked pantry to share. The view is everything they say and more. Also, our dog loved the bowls and cushioned bench! Just be sure to follow their directions and don’t necessarily listen to your GPS! Note: we left behind prescription glasses and a favorite child’s pillow: Chris was super prompt in responding and getting it returned to us!!!

Gorgeous View

We had a fabulous time at this cabin. The Mountain View was just gorgeous. The cabin was well stocked and there was plenty of room with three floors of bedrooms. We totally enjoyed the outdoor fireplace. It was a great place to gather and talk or read a book in front of a nice warm fire. We actually ran out of firewood but Chuck managed to get that restocked for us. The only issue we encountered was getting the access code for entry. We didn’t have it on the day we were supposed to check in and we had to contact Chuck to get it. I like to have the code a little more in advance just in case the cell service is spotty on the trip there and we have trouble communicating. But overall we had a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Chuck & Christine

Host profile image
We'd been renting cabins in the North Georgia Mountains for over 20 years and we finally decided it was time to call one our own.

Christine is a native Georgian, having grown up in Carrollton. She is a pediatrician currently looking after newborns at Atlanta's baby factory, Northside Hospital. In her free time she likes to whip up creations in her craft room.

Chuck is originally from the Chicagoland area, but has spent most of his life in Georgia. He works for Cox Automotive designing websites, mobile apps, and more. In his free time he's probably doing something home-improvement related.

We have two awesome kids. Joshua has recently finished his Masters from UGA and started his first “real job”. Cody is attending George Mason University studying environmental science.

We have two rescue dogs - Lucy and Kenzie. They have discovered they like the mountains as much as we do. They join our cat Apple (she's a stay-indoors-at-lower-altitudes type) to round out our family.

When we're not in the mountains we are just under two hours away in Peachtree Corners, Georgia.

Why they chose this property

The views from our place are nothing short of spectacular. We can't wait to spend time here and enjoy the views whether it is with a cup of coffee in the morning or a nice glass of wine at night. If you've never seen the Milky Way just wait until dark on a clear night and it won't disappoint. You're almost guaranteed to see some shooting stars.

We have a lot of criteria when finding a place in the mountains, and this cabin checked all of them - great view, peaceful, comfortable rooms, a good place to cook a meal, easy (but not too easy) access, a cabin (not a house!), hangout space (for the adults *and* the kids), outdoor fireplace, and easy access to nearby towns.

The basement is a great place to watch a movie. One of our family traditions when in the mountains is playing board/card games (Risk, Cataan, Canasta, and more) on the large game table there.

What makes this property unique

Have we mentioned the view? The night sky is spectacular. It's also unbelievably peaceful.

You're just 25 minutes away from anything you need - restaurants, shopping, activities, and more. But once you're here we don't think you'll want to leave.
