Lakeside Retreat: Kayak | Fish | Relax | BBQ | Firepit

Peace and serenity await you at this luxurious water front 🏞 Georgia Mountain cabin. Leave the world behind while you delight in the tranquility of this stunning lake front getaway. Aptly named "Water's Edge" you can view Cherry Lake from almost every room in the cabin. This breathtaking scenery sets the stage for a perfect romantic getaway for two or make it the ideal spot for a group of close friends or family to enjoy some time together in the mountains of North Georgia.

Hidden among the trees and situated right along the shore of Cherry Lake this beautifully crafted log cabin provides you the luxury cabin experience you long for. Featuring vaulted ceilings, bay windows, natural stone, and exposed hardwoods throughout, the retreat brings the peaceful feeling of nature to every room in the cabin.

Enter the main level on the covered terrace through oversized, hand-crafted wood doors using your own access code for easy self-check-in. Through the entryway is a tucked-away dining space for six that flows into an open-concept cabin. To the right of the entry find a well-appointed kitchen with everything you need to cook delicious meals. New appliances, granite countertops, and all the pots, pans, and utensils you will need to enjoy perfect meals while you listen to the Georgia breeze in the trees. Brew a cup of coffee and step into open-air living space to enjoy high-peak vaulted ceilings, a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, and oversized comfy sofas. Step outside to relax and take in the views on the first of three covered decks providing expansive views of the lake, all usable in any season. Just off the kitchen and living space find the first bedroom featuring a king mattress, TV, and large windows bringing in an abundance of natural light. Finally, the main level boasts one bathroom with a stand-up shower, fresh towels, and basic bathroom amenities.

Take the beautifully crafted hardwood stairs to the lofted upstairs of the cabin. Here you will find another living space with an oversized sofa overlooking the space below, perfect for cozying up with your favorite book and letting the natural light pour in on you. Walk the short hallway to find the second bedroom featuring a queen mattress with plush linens, nightstands, reading lamps, TV, and its own personal terrace overlooking the lake. The loft area features a well-appointed bathroom with a shower-tub combination, fresh towels, and basic bathroom amenities you may need during your stay.

Looking for fun right in the cabin? Head downstairs to find the game room featuring darts, foosball, and an arcade game. Make a drink and relax at the whiskey barrel table and put the game on the wall-mounted TV. With that backcountry pub feel, you'll be feeling all your stress slip away as you make memories that last a lifetime. The bottom level of the home boasts one more bedroom featuring a queen bed with a single mattress bunk as well as ground-level access to the hot tub and pathway to the lake.

Although we know you will love every inch of the cabin interior the fun, the memories, and the stress-relieving peace that can be found outside the cabin are even better. Melt your worries away while soaking in the hot tub located on the basement floor deck. Enjoy the Georgia breeze on the main deck or stroll down the stairs to the dock on Cherry Lake. Featuring lounge chairs on the dock and your very own Jon-boat and kayak, enjoy time on the water fishing and taking in the warm sun rays. Forgot your fishing pole? Not to worry, we have you covered with provided fishing poles. Looking for a little more competition? Head over to the horseshoe pit for a friendly game of horseshoe. Enjoy the sunset while you build a fire next to the lake. Installed benches provide enough seating for 6 and we've been told there is no better place in all of Georgia to enjoy a few s'mores.

Working remotely during your stay? We have you covered with high-speed Wi-Fi capable of supporting video conferencing and ample table space for you to set up the at-home office. Enjoy Netflix on all TVs or stream your favorite service or simply unplug with one of the many books in the cabin.

*Pet Policy*
As pet owners ourselves, we enjoy being one of the few lakefront cabins in Blue Ridge that allows pets! We charge an additional $45 pet fee for every 2 dogs that come along on the trip. There is also a $50 large dog fee (+50lbs). The fee covers additional cleaning and wear and tear as we have hardwood floors throughout.

Perfect place to recharge

Not a detail overlooked. This cabin has everything a family needs to unplug and recharge. I can’t think of one thing I would change and we can’t wait to come back.

Tons of amenities.

This cabin is really thoughtfully furnished. Plenty of umbrellas, fire starting supplies, insect and animal repellent, seating, games, you name it. I brought the typical small items that don’t always come with cabin rentals but I didn’t need anything from my stash because the kitchen is well stocked with plenty of quality cooking gear. I also loved the added bonus of having bedside wireless charging lamps. The view from the decks and while in the hot tub is beautiful. Walk down to the cabin is very easy and there was plenty of room on the deck. We took the kayaks out and the aluminum boat. The lake is really peaceful. The fish are picky but we caught sunfish and bluegill from the dock and spotted bass in the boat. We used live worms and crickets. It rained the first night we were there and the gentle rain sound rocked me to sleep. This is a great place to recharge.

Christmas family vacation

Everything was just as we expected. Our family rented several cabins this year. Some of us came last year and loved so made an entire family trip. The area is beautiful and there are many hiking trails. Did a day of winery which was excellent. Management was excellent. Could not have asked for a more fun and interesting family vacation
