About the host

Hosted by Randy and Bonnie Rich

Host profile image
We live on Lake Lanier in Gainesville, Georgia. Our kids are in college, so we like to divide our time among the lake, the mountains, and the beach. We've had a vacation rental on St. Simons Island since 2017 and really love sharing our homes with other families.

This is our personal vacation home, inherited from my Dad (our children’s “Granddaddy”). We love and cherish the cabin and strive to take good care of it the way he did. We had the shadow box coffee table custom made to fit the drawing board, which he had set up on the kitchen table. We kept it just like he had it with all of his tools laid out, and set it down into the shadow box. Daddy was a young 76 when COVID stole him from us. He still did consulting engineering work from his kitchen table, rode a Harley and drove his Jeep on these beautiful mountain roads, and did all of his own maintenance on everything he owned. He and I hung and placed all the family photos, which is why I chose to leave them when we started sharing his cabin on the vacation rental market. I added the photos of him and his firehouse as a young Dad after his passing. These were taken when I was a newborn. We hope you enjoy your stay here in our peaceful place.

Love, Bonnie

Why they chose this property

We love all the hiking, river activities, wineries, and unique, privately owned shops and restaurants that the Blue Ridge and Appalachian Mountains have to offer. We think our cabin and the little private gravel road it sits on look like they are right out of a storybook. The other two cabins on our road are also recently remodeled; one is a retired couple's mountain vacation home, and the other is the retirement home of a veteran. We have a wonderful community here!

What makes this property unique

Granddaddy's Cabin is warm and rustic and recently completely renovated, so it also has all the comforts of a modern home. We are very fortunate in that we have fast fiberoptic cable, so we can stream TV and work remotely via Zoom when we need to. This is rare in the area.
