Neighborhood
The Cabin at Snail Trail is located in Cherry Log near the top of a remote mountain with only 6 other homes. The cabin is only 25 minutes from Downtown Ellijay or 30 minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge, and even closer to many adventures like hiking, fishing, hunting, kayaking, tubing, gem-mining, apple-picking and more.
Guest Access
Guests will be able to access the entire cabin and entire property. The cabin sits on 2-acres, and guests are welcome to explore the trails we blazed with our children. Please keep in mind that the trails are homemade and not professionally maintained, and traverse down a steep hill so walking sticks and sturdy shoes are recommended.
Good to know
Outdoor space: Before you enter the home, you're greeted with beautiful mountain and forest views and sounds of the noisy creek below. The front porch has several comfortable seating options if you'd like to take in the scenery. Soak in the hot tub (and the views!) on the lower porch. The flat, forested yard is safe for children and perfect for pets. The large fire pit is perfect to enjoy the outdoors some s'mores late into the evening. This cabin sits on 2-acres on a remote mountain with only 6 other homes, so soak in the solitude! Living room: Walk through the front door into the living room, with a cozy couch facing a stone, wood-burning fireplace. The coffee table and wooden bench both open to reveal board games, card games, puzzles, kid-friendly books and more. A bundle of firewood is provided at no cost for your first fire. Kitchen: Beyond the living room is our recently renovated kitchen complete with all the essentials to make yourself at home. The brand new 5-burner gas range is a crowd favorite! The pancake griddle burner is perfect for a pancake brunch with your loved ones. Non-breakable dishes, and an assortment of drinking glasses and wine glasses are available. A brand new dishwasher makes cleanup easy! The dining table comfortably seats 4 adults, and an extra folding chair and high-chair is provided to seat a 5th adult or child. Primary bedroom: Drop your things in the dresser or hang them on the garment rack and sink into the comfy queen bed. Gaze out the window to peep those mountain views from the bed - there's nothing better! Secondary bedroom: This bedroom is loved by kids, and adults find it comfy too! The twin-over-full bunk comfortably sleeps 3 children, or 2-3 adults if they want to relive their childhood! A TV in this bedroom has a built-in DVD player, and you can find several family friendly DVDs for some entertainment on a rainy day. Full bathroom: Recently updated bathroom features a bathtub/shower, and will be complete with enough towels, wash clothes and hand towels for your stay. Getting there: Several miles of gravel roads lead you to our cabin, and the final 1/2 mile requires an AWD or 4WD vehicle. Please plan accordingly :) Plan to disconnect: Mountain life is slowwwwww, and so is our Wi-Fi (no really, it’s very slow!). Please do not plan to surf or stream. Plan to relax! Cellular signal is also very sparse, but the Wi-Fi, while not great for surfing/streaming, is typically good enough to complete a call and send wi-fi enabled text messages.
Other Details to Note
The final 1/2 mile ascent up to the cabin requires AWD or 4WD. Please only book our cabin if you will be driving an AWD or 4WD vehicle. SLOW Internet (3 Mbps). Plan to RELAX, don't plan to surf/stream or work if Wi-Fi is required for your work. We're happy to recommend local coffee shops in town if you need to get some work done during your stay!
