Lovely dog-friendly creekside cabin with fireplace, hot tub, & creekside fire pit
Find the perfect escape in this cozy cabin getaway, located between Blue Ridge and McCaysville. Enjoy the lush greenery in the great outdoors along with the quiet and peace that comes from getting away from it all. Don't worry about being too isolated, a short drive into town boasts plenty of local eateries, entertainment, arts, and shopping. White water rafting, tubing, kayaking, fishing, mountain biking, and hiking await the anxious outdoor enthusiasts.

Located on the desirable Fighting Town Creek, enjoy the ease of the porch swing on the creek side deck, unwind around the creek side fire pit, sit back and fish from the bank, or decompress while wading, tubing, or kayaking in the creek.

Inside you'll find a bright interior with lots of natural light, as well as a warm feeling throughout the all-wooden home. The open floor plan promotes togetherness and no conversation will be lost while in the kitchen, dining area, or living area. Cozy up near the grand stone fireplace with a good book or tune into a favorite movie on the large TV. Fiber Wi-Fi is available and, while cell service in the cabin is limited, with Wi-Fi calling turned on you will not miss that important call. Prepare meals and on-the-go snacks in the full kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and a tall breakfast bar. The bedrooms are comfortable with TVs and soft beds, the main bedroom upstairs has a private balcony as well as a lovely en suite bathroom. Enjoy playing games together, relaxing on the porch in the rocking chairs, or soaking in the hot tub while watching the lazy days go by.

Well Maintained Peaceful location

Cabin is well maintained and has all the amenities you would need for a short weekend or extended stay. WiFI worked exceptionaly well for being a remote area. perfect for 2 or 3 couples or a family. Hot tub is only a two person size but excellently maintained and clean. The outdoor fire pit and gazebo overlooking the flowing fightingtown creek is a big plus for an evening by the fire doing smores, or during the day splashing in the creek. Would definately look to stay here again.

Clean Cozy Cottage

We had a wonderful time in this clean, cozy cottage. It was cold while we were there so we stayed cuddled up by the fire. There was plenty of firewood for us (though we brought several bundles). The beds are clean and comfy! This cabin could benefit from some full length mirrors, haha. Others should know, the hot tub comfortably seats two (really only one person has the jets), but it's what fits on the deck. Everything else was wonderful. Great location: quick drive to Blue Ridge or McCaysville/Copperhill. We definitely recommend.

Not really a mountain property. More just out in the country

Property was ok. Towels were super scratchy and uncomfortable! Would have expected more in terms of nicer amenities at the price of the cabin

Pleasant stay

Overall the cabin exceeded our expectations. It was plenty roomy for our family of four and we enjoyed our time at the cabin and in the surrounding area. A few things need help, the upstairs french door handle needs to be tightened up and the door needs to be tightened as well. The downstairs bathroom sink is very clogged and the house was crazy dusty. Also make sure to bring your own firewood because they just cut the wood under the porch and that aint going to burn. Overall we are happy with a few things that couldve been better. We would stay again!

We really enjoyed staying at this cabin. The location was great as it was quiet, spacious property, right on the creek and only 15min from shopping/restaurants. It was very clean and in really nice condition. We would definitely stay here again.

Very Inconvenient stay

The cabin had electrical issues everyday. The lights would flicker randomly and we lost power for several hours. Since there was no signal in the area either or wifi, it made it impossible for us to cook or utilize anything. The jacuzzi was not able to get warmer than 85 degrees and was very cold. We followed the given instructions but did not help. The fire place was not functional either. I would like a refund please.

Easy access, perfect getaway cabin!!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lazy Bear cabin! We spent the majority of our time by the fire pit next to the creek and just relaxed. My husband and I traveled with his parents and had a wonderful time showing them around northern GA, where we hope to move to soon. The ease of getting to this cabin was unexpected and certainly appreciated - we have stayed in cabins where the access was daunting and tough and this was neither. In fact, we saw lots of wildlife (deer, turkey, etc) every time we left and came back. Even some beautiful white cattle! The only thing not satisfactory with our stay was on arriving, the hot tub was open and full of leaves. It was also 68 degrees. We figured the cleaning crew must have left it open by accident - but it never got to a desirable hot temperature (the highest it went was 80). We called Vacasa on the third day of our 7 night stay and by night 6, it was repaired. We were thankful but sadly missed out on several nights of soaking after hiking Amicalola Falls and other places. I would still recommend this cabin based on the location, tranquility and ease of renting. We would absolutely stay again.

This was our second stay and we love the property. The only real complaint is that the hot tub does not heat as well as it should. We look forward to returning.
