Less than three miles from Downtown Blue Ridge, the Retreat is in perfect proximity to access great restaurants, shopping and 2 boat ramps to launch your boat. At the same time, Blue Ridge Lake Retreat is nestled on a point with a large private driveway with lovely natural landscape, lush green grass and beautiful crystal clear waters giving you the relaxing experience you dream of. The "modern and elegant" feel of this comfortable lakefront home will make time stand still. Luxury and class best describe the interior surroundings of the Main House. However, you might not want to spend much time inside. Instead, sit on the large covered back deck and watch your children run across the large level yard while you marvel at the incredible glow across the lake in the evening. Or, spend your days involved in the numerous activities Lake Blue Ridge has to offer. But your best option is probably to simply lounge on the dock and watch the boats in the distance skim across the water line. Whatever you choose, you will thoroughly revel in your experience at Blue Ridge Lake Retreat. ATTENTION - This property is monitored by closed circuit cameras at driveway access areas. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 6 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the marina - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 6,295 square feet ## Similar properties ![Microwave, oven, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/126000000/125050000/125041500/125041467/cb0f1cd5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Secluded 4-bedroom cottage with AC in charming Ellijay, with CREEK frontage!

The water pressure is horrible! Nearly impossible to wash my thick hair. Everyone was complaining. Also, we were told that there was a Keurig there and there wasn’t. That was a pain because we bought a bunch of Keurig pods with us. One of us ended up going and buying a Keurig at Walmart! Otherwise the house was gorgeous and so clean! ##### Sara E.

Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Hannah S. 29 Apr 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice house This house was definitely nicer than the pictures show. My only complaint was the water pressure in the master bath. To have such a large grande home, you’d think they’d have more than just a $4.99 shower head. But to each their own. ##### Hannah S. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Terri M. 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy This is the first time we have ever given a negative review on VRBO, and we have stayed at many properties. This home was very disappointing compared to other Blue Ridge homes at comparable prices. This is an older home and everything is worn and dated. The home is very dark with very small windows that look out at the lake. The back deck had one old lounge chair and the grounds were very dirty. The wood decks were dirty and splintered. There were no lounge chairs on the lower boat dock at all. The mattresses were old and thin and the solution was to put a thin pad over them which didn't really work. The upstairs bedrooms had window AC units if you're staying in the summer. The home was not stocked like a typical higher end rental. Plan on going to the store immediately and stocking up on EVERYTHING. It was unseasonably chilly the week we were there and asked to turn on the fireplace. We were told no, and that they turned the gas off in the summers. Overall, this home was probably very nice 20 years ago, but is in desperate need of maintenance and updating. The good news is that this house is big and will sleep many people and the rental company answers quickly when you have questions, however, just beware that the pictures of the property are not accurate. ##### Terri M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nolan M. 14 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Property We had a great reunion weekend with friends at the property. This house was PERFECT for a large group - with nice large bedrooms, an amazing location on the lake, and proximity to downtown Blue Ridge. The only "issue" we had was that the property manager told us that the house only had parking for 4 cars so we went out of our way to try and carpool when it wasn't convenient to do so, and upon arrival we found that there was more than enough space - you could easily park 10 cars in the driveway. But lots of parking is just a bonus, I just wish it had been communicated to us. But I don't have anything negative to say about the property. It was amazing! ##### Nolan M. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katherine h. 7 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Weekend Getaway We had the best experience at this property! Everything was as shown in the images and beyond our expectations. The house is close downtown and right on the lake. We hope to be back soon! ##### Katherine h. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ---
