Originally a humble two-room hunting lodge with only a pair of wood-burning fireplaces, the home was later sold to a master woodworker named Joe. Once in Joe’s hands, the transformation began. He poured creativity and craftsmanship into every corner, building a whimsical wonderland complete with playful balconies, curvy staircases, handmade light fixtures, and quirky custom sinks. Every detail was designed to spark joy and leave a lasting impression. Eventually, Joe passed the torch to Margaret—a decorating enthusiast with a flair for the nostalgic and unexpected. She brought in antiques, family heirlooms dating back to the 1800s, and charming oddities that make the space feel both personal and playful. Her unique touch turned this already fabulous house into something even more unforgettable. The home is child-friendly, featuring a third-floor kids’ nook (perfect for little ones or adventurous adults!), and includes an open honor bar for guests to enjoy responsibly. Located on Double Knob Mountain, this funky and eclectic escape is best accessed with all-wheel or 4-wheel drive—especially in colder months when mountain weather can be unpredictable. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### 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) ## Similar properties ![Cabin, 1 Bedroom (Fife Bridge) | Private kitchen | Full-sized fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38750000/38741800/38741783/e929438a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Villas at Coosawattee River Resort Ellijay - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.8 Excellent 294 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-17&endDate=2025-11-18&selected=38741783&PinnedHotelID=38741783&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/49000000/48830000/48824900/48824874/0284d0a1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Treetop cabin with private hot tub, furnished deck, & free WiFi - dog-friendly Foxfire Estates - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.6 Excellent 69 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-17&endDate=2025-11-18&selected=48824874&PinnedHotelID=48824874&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, DVD player, table football](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33560000/33551800/33551755/7bbefb9e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### BLUE RIDGE TREE HOUSE - Relax in the ambiance of Blue Ridge - Private-EZ access Blue Ridge - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 180 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-17&endDate=2025-11-18&selected=33551755&PinnedHotelID=33551755&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66740000/66734800/66734786/eca3ebae.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ★Cozy Log Cabin★ Secluded, modern amenities, mins to dwtwn Blueridge.
