Cherry Log, Georgia
Amber Ridge Retreat
A brand-new log cabin set atop the ridge, with west-facing Blue Ridge Mountain views, a hot tub under the stars, and sunsets from every deck.
The Cabin
Make yourself at home.
Set atop the ridge, this brand-new 2-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin was built to capture expansive views. Facing west, it's perfectly positioned for unforgettable sunsets from any of the multiple decks.
Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen, dining for six surrounded by windows, a wood-burning fireplace, Brooklyn Bed Co beds, and a Koala sleeper sofa guests actually want to sleep on. Outside, the 600+ sq ft lower deck has a hot tub, gas fire pit, sectional, and a farmhouse table hand built in Ellijay. Starlink internet keeps you connected.
Where you'll be
Hidden Lake, Cherry Log.
Cherry Log is a small, quiet mountain community tucked between Blue Ridge and Ellijay, and Hidden Lake is one of its most peaceful corners, with paved roads, wooded surroundings, and mountain views. It's the kind of place where the loudest sound is crickets and the hardest decision is hot tub or fire pit.
You're also close to plenty to do. Downtown Blue Ridge and Ellijay are both a short drive away, with boutique shops, farm-to-table dining, wineries, and seasonal festivals. Atlanta is about an hour and a half away, so the cabin works well for a weekend escape or a longer stay.

Getting around
The view is the reward.
The cabin is in the Hidden Lake community in Cherry Log, between Blue Ridge and Ellijay, and a car is the best way to get around. Downtown Blue Ridge and Ellijay are both a short drive away, and Atlanta is about an hour and a half away.
The driveway has room for 2-3 cars and space to turn around before going back up the drive. Hidden Lake has paved roads, and the community is not gated, so you can drive straight to the cabin. Your check-in message will include the full address and directions.
We recommend using Apple Maps to navigate. Mountain areas can have spotty cell service, so download our driving instructions before leaving. The cabin has Starlink Wi-Fi, so calls and messages work over Wi-Fi once you're inside.
The property sits up a fully paved mountain road with some steep stretches, and the driveway is steep and paved, too. Most guests find it easier to make their first trip up in daylight. No four-wheel drive or truck needed. Any regular vehicle does just fine, unless snow or ice is in the forecast. In that case, we recommend four-wheel drive. Trust us, it's worth it!
