About this property

Perfect mtn getaway with multi-layered views!

At Beary Woodsy Cabin, rustic elegance best describes this gorgeous 3 bedroom/3 bathroom cabin that sits nestled on a hillside overlooking a stunning, panoramic view of the Chattahoochee National Forest. As you enter the 3 acre property through the gated driveway, up to the spacious parking area with carport, you get your first look at the breathtaking views of the surrounding area.

Love to cook? You will enjoy creating the perfect meals in this gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, and a large island with bar seating for 3 and GAS range! The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, glassware, dishes, Ninja blender, drip style coffee pot and more!

Here, outdoor living is at its best with two spacious decks that include an impressive double deck gazebo that is perfect for hanging out with your family and friends. The upper deck is covered and has a lovely swing, 2 rockers, outdoor eating space and ceiling fans to create that perfect breeze for chilling out on those warm summer nights. Enjoy a nice glass of wine while cooking out on the large gas grill and eat outside taking in the scenery!

If you prefer an indoor setting for meals, enjoy the spacious dining room with a beautiful, large, custom made table and chairs with seating for 8.

The family room has soaring cathedral ceilings with a two story stone fireplace. Tons of glass windows allow you to take in the beauty of the mountains throughout the house with views from virtually every room. Featuring a 60" Smart TV, DVD player, cable TV, and internet connection with Netflix or any other internet based streaming service that you desire, this is the perfect room for entertaining or hanging out with friends.

The master on main features an impressive king sized rustic bed, 46" Smart TV, cable TV, walk in closet and plenty of drawer space to unpack and feel at home. Master bath features double vanity with granite counter tops, soaking tub, stand-alone shower and a heated floor for those chilly mountain mornings!

Upstairs in the loft is a cozy space overlooking the family room where you can hang out on the love seat or get a little work done at the desk with a 22" inch monitor to hook up your laptop. There is a bathroom and bedroom off of the loft with a queen sized log bed, 32" inch TV with an Amazon Firestick and private balcony with two rocking chairs to take in some the best views from the cabin! Especially if you are up early enough to enjoy the sunrise!

Perfectly laid out for multi-family vacations as the terrace level of this gorgeous cabin can function as its own space. Kick back in the comfortable furnishings of the family room that features a second fireplace with a 50" inch TV, DVD player and cable TV. The terrace level family room opens to a patio that has a hot tub, glider chairs and gazebo access to let you relax with your own private space and view. Or, gather around the fire pit that has plenty of seating to roast marshmallows and make delicious s'mores while sitting under a blanket of stars!

The terrace level also features a bedroom with a queen bed and its own 50" inch flat screen TV with an Amazon Firestick. The bathroom has a large glass shower and for those chilly mornings, toasty warm heat lamps! There is a kitchenette with a full refrigerator, sink, microwave, coffee maker and even a second washer/dryer.

No mountain getaway would be complete without a game room where you can enjoy a game of pool, ping pong or throw some darts!

Don't miss out on the chance to unplug, relax, reconnect and regroup in a special cabin where many great memories are sure to be made.

Our whole home generator will keep you up and running in case of a power failure!

Just a little vacation

Big cabin! Very well maintained. It has everything you may need for relaxing, entertainment and cooking. Pretty easy to find with maps on your phone. Probably 20 minute drive from Ellijay. But that’s a good thing! Far enough away so that it’s nice and quiet. Ellijay and Blue Ridge have places to eat and visit.

Awesome spot for quiet picturesque honeymoon!

Check in was easy and the owner checked on us to make sure everything was going well and to see if we needed anything. Which was awesome. That’s the first time I have ever got a call from the owner to make sure things were going well. Gave some great recommendations. The cabin was perfect. Long range views and quiet serenity. The cabin is huge and welcoming and very clean and neat. The hot tub was fantastic and the cabin is a great base camp to work from to see all kinds of things. We absolutely loved our stay and can’t wait to come back.

Birthday Getaway

The property was so welcoming. We were extremely pleased with the amenities and resources. The views were stunning. I love rocking chairs and on every level there was a place just for me!! My girlfriends and I had such a peaceful and relaxing weekend. The memories made there will not be forgotten. The property owners were available and so helpful whenever we called on them. I was not able to locate a pitcher for making drinks and the ground floor common area was unsettling at night because of the lack of window dressings. Overall I was very pleased and would highly recommend this cabin to others.

Unexpected

We just came back from a week stay (Feb 7-14, 2021) in this cabin. To our "unexpected" surprise we found that in the Master Bedroom the main window does NOT have a window covering. I called Glenn about this and he said to go to the closet that there was some cardboard there to cover it. I told him that that is unacceptable! And he told me that I was the first person in four years of VRBO to complain about this! I told him I should be compensated for my PAYING the FULL price of a totally furnished house. He then continued and told me to look around in the drawers for some sheets for me to cover the window! Then Elizabeth got on the phone and said how can we get this fixed? In the meantime, my daughter climbed up a chair and put whatever sheet or cover we found to get the privacy needed for this window. Then she offered to have somebody come over the next day to see about it.....that is NOT the case! This should have been taken care of before we arrived! On another note, YES the kitchen is equipped but very messy and poorly organized and with sooo much stuff that when you arrive with the groceries for a week stay, the cabinets are soo FULL that there is no space to store but to have everything on top of the counter. And as a suggestion, the furniture in the main living room should have SLIPCOVERS so that they can be washed and be ready for next guests (specially since dogs are allowed here to stay) ! And lastly, just want to point out (not that we needed it ) but we couldn´t start the fireplace even following the instructions. I must say on a lighter note, that the cabin is well situated to visit small towns like Ellijay, Dahlonega, Helen, Anna Ruby Falls, Carter´s Lake, Amicalola Waterfall, and just enjoy the view.

Fantastic Getaway

I absolutely loved our time here! You could tell the owners put a lot of effort in with their attention to detail which was greatly appreciated. They went above and beyond to provide a list of local attractions/activities, points of interest, restaurants etc as well as how close each one was to the cabin. There were so many enjoyable amenities - board games, darts, ping pong, pool (it could be a little difficult to play because of the size/shape of the room but still fun), a hot tub, fire pit, etc. It’s best to travel with a vehicle that has tires equipped for off-road travel that can handle the incline and gravel road, but we still made it up in a 4cyl sedan successfully. Everything was very clean and well organized with lots of kitchen equipment available. Bring some coffee creamer and the food you need and you’re set for a perfect getaway! We would definitely visit again!

Awesome cabin and view

We had a very good time at this cabin. This place is perfect for 3 separate households. 3 floors each with a bedroom and it’s own bathroom. Ping pong table and pool table was a big hit. Only problem there was the room that the pool table is in is small and it’s hard to shoot pool with all the walls in the way. The hot tub was a bonus as well. Kitchen was very equipped to handle our cooking needs. Everything we needed was there. One trip to the grocery store and we were set. Owners are extremely helpful when needed for questions on how to operate air. That view!!! Awesome!!!! I do recommend this for families!

When renting the property I had an issue with my credit card. I contacted Glenn, the property owner, he he was so kind and helpful. Once I got past this everything was a breeze.

I don't know a better way to end the year and start anew!

This cabin and our experience was amazing and exactly what we were looking for! This was the first vacation where we weren't rushing around trying to see all the sights & experience all the local activities. We wanted a nice cozy place to spend some real quality time with our family and I have to say this was the perfect place to do so. We spent 10 days in this cabin, that did not feel like just another rental. It was like we were visiting family with just how homey it felt. It was fully loaded with everything we could possibly need and you could tell that this rental wasn't just "managed" but truly cared for! The ease of check in was top notch and the views were unforgettable. We live in S.FL and all my kids ever talk about is seeing snow, so waking up to fresh snow was simply magical! Especially when it was warmer than usual and the possibility never really even crossed my mind. Although activities weren't our first priority we did adventure out and the cabin seemed conveniently located for our needs. The cabin provided enough space to spend quality time together but also gave everyone their own private space to relax in. Which when traveling with teens ranging from 13 to 19 and a 1 year old you just can't beat it! I like to leave honest reviews & to list all the pros & cons, however I feel like I'd have to nitpick to be able to say anything not positive about this place but here are some little things I feel could be corrected with little to no effort. First the remote to the TV in the main living room didn't seemed to work too well. Even after changing the batteries you had to push the power button multiple times to turn it on. And it was on some sort of timer, so a little message would pop up telling you to hit enter or it'd turn off but with the remote not working you couldn't, so it would turn off & then be a pain to get back on. We brought our own fire stick (they're supplied in other rooms) & watched that mostly so we didn't have to deal with changing channels. Only mentioning this because for a guy like my husband having the TV shut off during playoffs was kind of a thing. lol And I'm sure it's an easy fix. The cabin was very clean, bedding, bathrooms all the important stuff but having a small child on the floor I noticed stuff like maybe the floors weren't done in between visitors, baseboards & a kitchen drawer or two need a good wipe down but overall we couldn't of been happier & definitely would recommend to family & friends! 10/10☆

Amazing views and cabin!

This was our first trip to the area. The cabin was clean, comfortable and had everything that we could need to enjoy our stay in Ellijay. Glen and Elizabeth were very thoughtful, helpful and responsive during our stay. Our week went by way too fast and we were sad to leave and go back to reality. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, playing games as a family and exploring the area. It was fun visiting the nearby Apple Orchards, exploring downtown Dahlonega (the Gold Mine was awesome), Blue Ridge, Helen and Ellijay. We went to visit Amicalola Falls and enjoyed the beauty, nature and serenity that the area had to offer. We loved that the area was more off the beaten path and that it wasn’t as touristy as other places that we have stayed in the past. We can’t wait to come back during the summer time and enjoy some more hikes, water and summer activities! We ran out of time and still had so much more that we wanted to explore. Great hosts, great cabin, great views!

About the host

Hosted by Glen Ruggiero

Host profile image
Back in 2016, our family decided to take a weekend trip up to the Blue Ridge mountains for a last minute getaway. While we were standing on the deck, looking out at the gorgeous mountain range, my wife turned to me and said, “We should get a cabin in the mountains”. Three months later we were the proud owners of Beary Woodsy! The cabin started out as our vacation home that we would steal away to whenever possible. But there were many weekends that we found ourselves committed to a volleyball tournament and were unable to visit. We decided to share our beautiful cabin with others and so our journey began!

Why they chose this property

The north Georgia mountains are a short 1 hour drive from where we live but you feel like you are a world away! We purchased our cabin as a getaway from the normal craziness of life!

What makes this property unique

The weather creates an ever changing view of the mountains! You can relax on the deck in the porch swing or view them from the luxury of the hot tub.
