About this property
Massive mountain views, new hot tub and garage converted to a cozy TV game space
Only 5 minutes from our cabin lies downtown Blue Ridge, easily Georgia's coolest mountain town and one of the best kept secrets in the Smokey Mountains! The Lazy Bear boasts amazing mountain views, yet easy, paved roads take you nearly all the way to our driveway! You can get away from it all immersed in impressive mountain scenery. Check out a local winery, or head out to a Smoky Mountain hiking trail, adventure through rapids as you experience white water rafting, try your luck at fishing, or spend the day shopping at one of Blue Ridge's quaint boutiques. Downtown Blue Ridge has numerous restaurant options ranging from a casual brewery to the most elegant dining experience. The Lazy Bear is right in the heart of it all ; just a 5 minute drive to get to the heart of it all! While staying at our cabin, wake up to some of the most impressive sunrises, then enjoy your coffee on one of 2 expansive decks (in the hanging hammock chairs or loungers) or view the sunrise from our new hot tub. The cabin includes two separate bedroom suites, and 2 large lower level bedrooms with a spacious full bathroom across the hall; perfect for multiple guests to share. Cute built in bunk beds and a comfy new sleeper sectional sofa available for additional sleeping make up the lower level family room. We also have a full size, auto inflatable air mattress for 2 more guests that can be set up down there. Our kitchen is well stocked with both small appliances, cooking utensils and basic ingredients (sugar, flour, coffee, salt, pepper, spices and more!) End your day enjoying a movie in one of the family rooms, or the NEW GARAGE Converted TV/GAME ROOM. In the garage game room, you and you can mix drinks at the bar, or challenge your friends to a game of ping pong while watching not one, but 2 separate movies or sporting events! Two cozy gas fireplaces are located indoors for chilly fall and winter nights or enjoy the party porch with a real wood burning fireplace for the most beautiful end to your evenings! Finally, if you want to venture a little deeper into the yard, make s'mores at the fire pit in the woods. Escape to the 3 car garage converted to a cozy TV/Game Room. Stay for a weekend, a week or longer - you may never want to leave!

About the host
Hosted by Jeff and Gayle Kennedy
My husband Jeff and I love to travel! We have visited many short term rental homes, and always appreciate when the owners put a little extra attention into making our stay comfortable. We love to share the special spaces we have created with others; we hope that you have a chance to experience the joy we feel every time we visit!
Why they chose this property
The Lazy Bear is special...we chose it because it's only 5 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge, yet secluded and has massive, beautiful mountain views. You will know what we mean as soon as you step out of your car and onto the porch heading to the main door. We have seen some of the most beautiful sunsets ever right here! When we're here, we feel miles away from the hustle and bustle of life....
What makes this property unique
We love the east facing view to enjoy sunrises - especially from the loft which is the primary bedroom suite! Having coffee in the hot tub or sitting in the swinging hammock chairs watching the sun come up is also a special treat! We also like that there are really 2 very private master suites, and an 'oversized' bathroom on the lower level for those sleeping down there. We also like the comfortable space our conversion provides. We added 2 TV's because we are huge sports fans - obviously we can cheer on more than one team at a time then! Taking walks in the neighborhood are some of the most peaceful we have ever taken; a little bit of exertion, and a LOT of amazing views and sometimes wildlife!
