Above Expectations- Pet Friendly | Hot Tub | Outdoor Fire Pit

If you dream of a perfect 'cottagey' home nestled privately among the hardwoods, peeking out over spectacular North Georgia mountain views, then this is the cabin for you. Once you arrive, this cabin, which sits on 2-1/2 acres, will actually rise “Above Expectations” to fulfill your most charming mountain getaway experience. Even the drive to Above Expectations' peaceful and secluded setting is idyllic, winding along and meandering by scenic pastures and old farm houses with weathered log fences.

Relax and reconnect with some of your closest friends or your family in this three-bedroom home featuring a red tin roof and welcoming front porch. The photography enthusiast will appreciate this cabin as it is also intimately connected to nature and offers three wonderful private decks to soak in the views. Romantic moments or family reminiscing are just a few sways away as several rocking chairs grace the outdoor areas.

Inside, this sweet home is unexpectedly high-end with friendly decor and a plush leather sectional in front of a cozy rock fireplace. Just steps away is a dining table for eight and an open kitchen for everyone to enjoy while preparing meals. Above Expectations is stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware and even offers a convenient kitchen breakfast bar.

Movies, games and Wii fun abound in the terrace level and this is the only cabin in our collection that offers a bumper pool table. Try your hand and poker face at the combination card and poker table on a soothing rainy day. The accommodations include choice of three bedrooms featuring either a king size bed in the upstairs master bedroom with a private bath and balcony to enjoy, a main floor bedroom offering a queen size bed and adjoining bathroom or the terrace level bedroom offering two twins.

The best of the Blue Ridge area is just outside the door so you can start enjoying this cabin's gorgeous property leading to a day of wonderful mountain exploration. Begin your evening with a soak in the hot tub or gather around the fire pit for a good old fashioned marshmallow roast. End your day with stargazing and a toast to the realization of a mountain cabin experience that has risen above your expectations.

Idyllic Christmas
This cabin was awesome! It was relatively easy to find, and there was ample space for everyone to gather and also have downtime. We loved the game room and the hot tub, and the kitchen was perfect for our needs. The gas fireplace did a great job of warming the living area on the main floor. We loved being able to take our dogs with us, and they loved seeing snow for the first time! The cabin is an easy drive to the town of Blue Ridge, where we were able to grab groceries and explore the downtown area. We would definitely stay here again!

Felt Like Home With Beautiful Views!
Seriously, rent this place! I did so much research before choosing and I am so happy with my choice! My husband, parents and I thoroughly enjoyed our time staying here. The views were beautiful, especially from the top bedroom. It was nicely located and had everything we needed to make our trip comfortable. The last turn is a little tricky because it is immediately to the left, so just keep that in mind. We kept missing it in the dark because my husband’s truck was so high! Lol It’s also a dog friendly cabin (we brought our blind Pomeranian) but you wouldn’t be able to tell, because it was so nice and clean. Thank you for the great trip!

Just what we needed.
Our stay was great. The property was just as listed and was a good value. The only suggestions we'd make is better water draining in master bathtub/shower and an update to the hot tub's control panel. We couldn't get the water to warm past 99 degrees. Despite those things, we truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent again.

excellent week in the mountains
This was a beautiful cabin and the location was excellent. It was very quiet and peaceful and the store was only 15 minutes away. My favorite things were the beautiful views, the decks, and the very comfortable cabin. The flowering trees were in full bloom this week, it was just so pretty and peaceful here. We had an awesome getaway.

A great adventure and a dog paradise
This was the way my son described the trip to the cabin. We had a great time there and would recommend to any family with kids. A lot of laughs, beautiful sunsets at the hot tub, easy access to the beautiful BlueRidge town. The support and service were also amazing!! They were ready available for all questions we had!!
