About this property

Rustic Elegant Lodge on a Pristine Private Lake

The search is over—you've found the perfect place for your next family reunion, friends' getaway, or retreat. Live large and make memories that will last a lifetime. With amazing lakefront and mountain views, 8000 square feet of luxurious living space, 8 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, and 2 half baths, a full-size sports bar with a pool table, shuffleboard and several arcade-style video games (pinball too!), this unique home offers entertainment options year-round for every age. A large, covered party porch with an outdoor fireplace is perfect for sunny days or cool evenings as you immerse in nature at one of the most beautiful settings in North Georgia.

This luxurious "cabin" will truly take your breath away! There are multiple living areas, including an expansive main floor with a massive stacked-stone fireplace and a dining table that seats 22 guests, 5 master bedrooms each with a king bed, another king with a detached bath, and 2 bunk rooms with 4 queen beds each- great for all the kids to enjoy! No detail is overlooked in this elegant lodge (a melding of luxurious and rustic design) that's perfect for large family gatherings, corporate retreats, wedding parties, or just a group of friends that wants to enjoy quality time together but still have space to spread out and relax. Enjoy playing on the lake (kayaking, canoeing, swimming) or playing indoors (pool, shuffleboard, ping pong, hot tub, or arcade games). Rain or shine, there's plenty to keep your entire group entertained and engaged.
Looking for adventure? The lodge is perfectly situated right in the middle of a plethora of exciting outdoor activities, including whitewater rafting or kayaking, thousands of miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, horseback riding, zip-lining, a famous scenic railroad, and some of the best trout fishing you'll find anywhere in the Southeast! Want to unwind with a glass of fine wine or two? Visit one of several nearby vineyards, where award-winning varietals are crafted and tours are offered daily!

Located halfway between Ellijay and Blue Ridge, this elegant lodge is just a 10-15 minute drive to either town, offering countless upscale shops and restaurants, art galleries, wine bars, breweries, and more!

his home is part of THE KRISTY COLLECTION, a carefully curated group of distinct properties with outstanding year-round entertainment opportunities.

Holy Cow Amazing! This place blew us away!!
We were expecting to be disappointed when we arrived, because surely it couldn't look as beautiful and large in person as it does in the pictures. But we had the opposite experience- the pictures can't even begin to do it justice. This "cabin" is HUGE! Literally freaking HUGE! You could have 100 people in the living room and not feel the slightest bit crowded. And the views over the lake are breathtaking! After staying here, we can't imagine staying anywhere else. We're already planning on getting everybody together again next year! Kristy was a pleasure to work with, and she knows everything about Blue Ridge inside and out. Great recommendations for where to eat, what to do, etc. Wow, what a great stay!!

Beautiful Location
Perfect location. On a lake with mountain views! No more than 30 minutes from anything we wanted to do. Plenty of room for all 16 of us with plenty of activities.

Great House
We had 16 adult females at the house and it was perfect. Lots of room. Beautiful house and the game room was fun! The kitchen is very well stocked with anything you need to cook. There are plenty of parking. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again.

Perfect for large gathering
This house was perfect, we had 24 adults and no one was crowded. The pictures do not do the size of the house justice. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, all of us fit around the table for a formal dinner. The covered deck with fireplace had plenty of room for everyone. We were able to fit 10 cars easily in the driveway and even had room to spare for a game of corn hole. We definitely will come back for future gatherings!
