The Lazy Laurel w/ year-round mountain views, waterfall sounds, peaceful

The Lazy Laurel is a peaceful 2/2 mountain cabin with year-round mountain views and sounds from nearby waterfalls. Located at the end of a private street, the cabin feels secluded but is located less than 20 minutes from Blue Ridge or Ellijay.

- King bed master suite and full bathroom upstairs, queen bed guest room and full bathroom downstairs
- Large porch with dog gate, gas grill and outdoor dining area
- Cozy living room with gas fireplace
- Hot tub
- Fire pit
- Game room
- Paved driveway

Cabin Layout - First Floor:
The top floor of the Lazy Laurel starts with our large attached front porch where you can enjoy year-round mountain views and sounds from nearby Fightingtown Creek. The porch has custom mountain laurel railing with dog gate, a new gas grill, outdoor dining for 6 people and seating area.

Step inside and you will find our cozy living room next with cathedral ceilings, a fully stocked kitchen, coffee bar and dining area. Kitchen includes all of the utensils you would need to cook a great meal as well as a waffle maker, crock pot, toaster, microwave and blender.

The king bed master suite is also on the first floor with attached full bathroom, dual sinks, a tub shower.

Cabin Layout - Bottom Floor Game Room and Guest Suite:
Our finished basement downstairs features all of the same tongue and groove wood walls, ceilings and custom stained concrete floors. Here you will find our game room with air hockey, pool table, large smart TV, pull out sofa and loveseat and a bar area with a separate refrigerator.

The queen bed guest suite with full bathroom is located right off of the game room on the bottom floor.

Cabin Layout - Lower Deck:
Exit the game room onto our lower deck to enjoy our brand new hot tub, outdoor seating and our fire pit. Enjoy the sounds of the nearby waterfalls and views of the mountains while you relax next to the fire or in the hot tub.

Paved driveway and neighborhood:
Our cabin is located in the cul-de-sac with a paved driveway that has enough room to turn around in any weather. Even though you can't see them once you are at our our cabin, our little street has around 8 other cabins and is a great place for an evening walk to enjoy the great mountain views. For the more active guests, the waterfalls of Fightingtown Creek are a short hike down the mountain below our property. Ellijay is 20 minutes to our South and Blue Ridge is 20 minutes to our North East, making the cabin the perfect central location for your North Georgia mountain getaway!

Absolutely Amazing!!
The home and property are absolutely gorgeous and very homie. We loved every minute of our stay. Definitely secluded and far off the beaten path. Just what we wanted and needed! Everything was spotless and we couldn't say better things about the cabin or the owners. They are extremely responsive as we were here during hurricane Helene and had a few questions for them. We will be returning!

Peaceful and cozy
We spent a wonderful 2 nights/2 days at this Cherry Log cabin. The property was very clean, well maintained and not dated. We appreciated the fact that the owners thought of every possible thing that we may need while staying in their cabin: from cooking gadgets to extra towels, dog bowls, coffee pods etc. The amenities: the hot tub was new and well maintained, the pool table and the hockey table provided hours of entertainment for our teens. The location: The cabin is perfectly located in close proximity to the Mercier orchard, the Ocoee River whitewater rafting and shopping in the nearby towns of Blue Ridge and Mineral Bluff. Communication with the owners was easy and pleasant. We appreciated the brochure that was shared with us a few days before the arrival and the same brochure with details about the property was available at the property. We will be back again! Thank you for the pleasant, cozy and peaceful stay.

More than Expected!
I’ve stayed at several cabins in North GA and this location by far, provided more than expected! Not only was the property immaculately clean, there were unexpected “extra’s” that made the visit well worth the cost! The easy to read Welcome Guide was beautifully put together and included “need to know” information for making plans outside the cabin! There was an abundance of firewood onsite for us to keep fire pit going for hours as we enjoyed the sounds of water from a nearby stream. I wish we would have booked for longer but as my schedule opens up, I will definitely book that location again!

Secluded peaceful getaway
The road to get to the property can be a little intimidating at first, but well worth it! And the property is in a small community, but you would never know you had any neighbors once you are on the property. We spent most of our time on the back porch just taking in the natural beauty and sounds. Honestly our stress just faded away as we looked at the trees and mountains, and listened to the water flowing in the distance along with the birds enjoying the day. And at night we would sit in the hot tub and watch the fireflies! I can’t explain in words just how peaceful this place was for us… we absolutely loved it! To top it off they had an air hockey and pool table just to add more fun to the experience! We were able to visit waterfalls, the highest peak in Georgia, Blue Ridge, Ellijay and Helen… Honestly, so many beautiful areas within driving distance… It was amazing!!! The property alone had a beautiful view and it was so hard to leave there. I would recommend this place for anyone.. between the views and friendly and helpful property manager, it was perfect!

Beautiful Cabin & Great Hosts
This is a beautiful, peaceful and private cabin in the trees. There are plenty of fun amenities to enjoy at the property as well as everything you need to enjoy some great food and drinks. The hosts were kind enough to provide us with tons of information for local entertainment and outdoor recreation ideas also. 10/10 would recommend.
