Cozy cabin with beautiful views

Welcome to our Idyll on the Ridge! With expansive and incredible Blue Ridge Mountain views and newly redecorated cabin decor that hits the perfect note between cozy and chic, “…the whole place is like a soft foresty hug! Cozy and romantic.” – The Owners.

Professionally managed by Safiri, ​t​​​​​his lovely 2 bedroom/2 bath true log cabin features a private hot tub deck, as well as a magical outdoor dining pavilion and an intimate firepit – it's a fairy-tale come true!

---THE SPACE---

Nestled amongst the trees, and looking out to the mountains, Idyll on the Ridge is an easy drive up from Cherry Log to a paved parking circle where a charming front porch welcomes you.

Step into the spacious great room with a newly remodeled kitchen and lovely woodland animal “moments” everywhere! The wonderfully updated Kitchen has everything you need to brew a fresh cup of coffee, or create a gourmet meal, and it's completely open to the charming Living room and the Blue Ridge view beyond!

Inside is an inviting place where you can enjoy your coffee and the warmth from the gas log fireplace, along with Roku TV! And the perfectly placed picture windows make it easy to enjoy the incredible year-round mountain views.

But the outdoors with its full-length upper deck and its own comfy seating area and cooler is also an amazing spot to relax with a piping hot mug or a chilled glass of wine and an iconic Blue Ridge sunset.

• Island Seating for 4
• Keurig Duo Coffee Station
• Newly Renovated Full Kitchen
• Sleek Granite Countertops
• Stainless Suite of Appliances

The clever floorplan continues with 2 ensuite master bedrooms on each side of the main living area. Both are beautifully decorated with their own picture windows and comfy armchairs. The stylishly appointed bathrooms both have walk-in showers, and there are spacious closets in both suites as well.

For chilly mornings and starry nights, the Hot Tub is just down the stairs on the lower deck, where a full-length custom woodland wall mural, twinkling café lights, a complimentary panorama of the Blue Ridge mountains and rustic swing chairs create the perfect forest vibe.

The Hot Tub is always bubbling with warm relaxation, and the 4-stool “bar” is always open for enjoying a refreshing cold drink!

Your most special moment at Idyll on the Ridge may very well be down the well-landscaped path to our very own al fresco Dining pavilion, placed out at the top of the ridge and surrounded by gorgeous mature trees. With woodsy designer wingback chairs and café lights, it's a magical retreat day or night!

There's also a gas grill and an adjacent woodburning firepit surrounded by Adirondacks so settle in, roast some smores, and enjoy the perfect ending to your perfect evening!

☞︎ Person booking and checking in must be at least 25 years old to reserve and must occupy the rental property throughout the whole stay.

☞︎ No parties or events are allowed. We are located in a residential community and, although this is a vacation destination, this area is predominantly families and nature-loving groups. This is doubtless part of its appeal to you too! Between the hours of 10pm and 8am noise should be kept to a minimum.

☞︎ Maximum occupancy of 4 people. Off-site visitors are not permitted without prior permission and are subject to a $100 fee per extra guest.

☞︎ No pets allowed. We love our furries as much as you, but no pets are allowed due to allergies. If you sneak in a pet of any kind you will be charged an additional $250 and you will be asked to leave.

☞︎ Please do not adjust hot tub temperature above 104 degrees.

☞︎ Fireplaces cannot be used between April 1 and September 30. Use of the fireplace during this time will result in a $250 fine. Be sure the flue is open. Please extniguish the fire and close the screen before leaving the home or going to bed. Turn off gas logs (if applicable), but leave the pilot light on. Do not move the gas logs in the fireplace. NEVER LEAVE A FIRE UNATTENDED WHEN LEAVING THE HOME OR GOING TO BED.

☞︎ We follow our stated cancellation policies under all circumstances. We highly recommended guests purchase travel insurance to cover weather-related issues (tropical storms, hurricanes, etc.) and illnesses that may arise and interrupt travel.

You can feel free to use the indoor garbage can, which our cleaners will remove when cleaning the unit. Or if you would like to take the garbage to the outside can, please ensure it is properly bagged (extra bags are located under the kitchen sink), tied off, and secured to keep our wildlife from gaining access.
