About this property

Dog friendly! Hot tub! 2K, 1Q, bunks, 2.5 baths, Fire pit, WIFI, Pool table!

EXTREMELY CLEAN AND SANITIZED !!

“Moonlight Mountain Hideaway” is a dog friendly, fully equipped, w/d, hot tub, TVs, comfy log cabin, with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, one luxury king master on main, a king and a queen bedroom on upper level to accommodate a family of six easily. Walk-in showers!! FIRE TV. Free WiFi ! Gas logs! Fire pit in season. And did we mention gorgeous view of Rich Mountain Wilderness from Ellijay to Blue Ridge!!

Also, we just completed a new lower deck with great amenities! Propane fire pit group, bar, darts, pool table, foosball and 55 inch HD streaming tv!! Movies and football!!

NOTE: (We do not photoshop any of our photos. What you see here is exact as the cabin is!)

When you book Moonlight, located within the highly sought after Lake Buckhorn Community, you are booking with Buckhorn Cabin Rentals.

At BCR you are a real person, not an "unknown" or only a credit card number punching a key pad. You are our guest. You will be served exactly the same way we would like to be served!!

Hospitality and service form our cornerstone. Personal contact, personal touches and being immaculately clean are what our guests expect and remember. This is what brings our guests back again and again!!

After booking you will be contacted personally by Jim Ferguson, the property manager. You will get all the info needed to locate and access your cabin.

As Jim and his wife, Carolyn live in the Lake Buckhorn Community, within 3 minutes of your cabin you are dealing with a member of the community, not someone miles or hours away, or in another state with 9 to 5 availability hours. Jim is available 24/7 in case of an emergency, or just to ask a guest. It is like having your own personal assistant or concierge!

None of these one hour quick cleaning services with BCR. Your cabin will be immaculately clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. If arriving late Jim will have lights on for you and temperature is set at 73 degrees.

And yes, you will have a 180 degree view of Rich Mountain Wilderness, all the way from Blue Ridge to Ellijay ! Also, hot tub (with full moon, optional!!) and video game area (for the kids, or adults who think they are kids! Lol!!) Playstation2, with game table and foozball. We have now completed the large lower deck featuring pool table, propane fire pit group, darts, 50+ inch tv and bar!! Firestick on TV.

Creek and lake on back property line, plus short hike to Lake Buckhorn across the street and the common area.

Paved roads, easy access, no 4x4 needed. 15 minutes to either Ellijay or Blue Ridge

BTW: Bella or Champ can enjoy it, too! MMH is dog friendly!! (with minor limits) Small pet fee required. Limit two dogs up to 60 lbs. each!!

The whole family will never want to leave the view from the back covered porch. Rocking chairs and checker board table bring back thoughts of simpler times. Kick back and relax with your favorite beverage or your morning cup of coffee, grill a steak or enjoy breakfast with the family around the dining/game table on the porch !!

Brand new living room furnishings make relaxing easy. Sit back to watch a movie, or maybe even take a nap by the fireplace. No snoring allowed!! Lol!!

And speaking of fireplace, how about cuddling up with a glass of wine, book in hand, and enjoying the warmth, of (seasonal) gas logs without having to go outside for wood!

Bring the clubs with you as Whitepath Golf Course is only minutes away! "FOUR!"

If you want the feel of a real fire, there is also a fire pit just outside. So gather around with marsh mellows or hot dogs for quality time with the family (October through March), the kids will love it !! A time to be close with family, or just share with your "sweetie"!

You will remember Moonlight Mountain Hideaway for a long time. The Mountain View, the cabin and the hospitality of your hosts and cabin managers, will bring you back again and again.

Wonderful Cabin

We had an awesome time. We loved the hot tub, pool table, propane fire pit. We spent most of our time on the porch in the rocking chairs and on the deck downstairs around the fire pit. The cabin is accurately described! We will be back for sure!

Great & Memorable Thanksgiving Weekend

Without question, this has been our best VRBO experience in years. From the moment we arrived, we were taken with the views and quality of the cabin. We could not have asked for anything more. Cabin is amazing, clean, and spacious. We loved the gas fireplace while enjoying our morning coffee. The entire family loved the cabin and the location is also very good. Our dogs loved the peace and tranquility. We had a spectacular Thanksgiving. Jim is a very gracious manager. We will be back!

Clean, Cozy, Quiet, Comfortable, Fun, Amazing!!

The title are the words each of used to describe our Spring Break 2025 trip. The drive to the cabin was easy on well paved roads all the way to the house. When you pull up to the cabin your parking spot is right next to the house & it is not in a scary/inclined. The cabin is in a great spot in town. About the cabin, after some serious PTSD on other VRBO stays on the cleanliness I was terrified of what I was going to find. Upon arrival I noticed the pictures do NO justice to what you will find. Let me tell you from the moment we walked in I was really impressed with how well decorated the cabin is & how cozy and welcoming it is. EVERYTHING, and I mean everything was clean & in working conditions. I did not have to buy anything but food for our stay & even then there was some stuff like seasonings, coffee/cocoa for us to use if needed. We did not have to go out to buy essentials either. It was like walking in to housesit your friends house. Towels, blankets, soaps I mean the works. The kids (20 & 21) went immediately to find the pool table & dart board in the bottom floor of the house. They were down there most of the week. The jacuzzi was hot & ready for us to use which hubby was thrilled about it. The hosts are minutes if not seconds away on text when you have any questions. I wish they had homes all over the states so I could always stay with them. I would need 1000 more words to tell you what a amazing experience this was. Oh and my Pug loved the house too :)

A Great Cabin!!

The cabin was perfect and in a really nice location. The cabin was immaculate and the personal details by Jim and Carolyn, like a plate of muffins, wine and a list of local restaurants put it over the top. Jim came by shortly after we checked in and went over everything in the cabin, which was very helpful. We will be back for sure!
