Disruptive quiet lingers here. And peace and quiet among mountainous sunset views feels like you are indeed living the cabin’s name: “A Simple Life.” This elegant cabin embodies the relaxation you need before heading just 3 miles to historic Downtown Blue Ridge where sounds of family fun begin with tons to do.
Few-Steps Entry
Just a few steps to the main level means convenient relief when carrying supplies. Plus, a Queen Suite is also on the main level; perfect for elders or anyone dreading stairs after a day in the mountains.
Main Level Living Area
Cozy Warmth. Feel the Above The Rest warmth when entering this professionally decorated, cute cozy cabin. Wood floors follow the beautiful heart pine wall to ceiling paneling. Kitchen & Dining. The open kitchen and dining spells roomy convenience. The kitchen is fully equipped with plenty of table seating when it’s time to feed the whole crew. Log Cabin Lounging. Enjoy the floor to ceiling, mountain stone, gas log fireplace complemented by a large TV and natural window lighting.
Screened-In Deck
Mood Setter. Scenes from this screened deck of long range mountain views will set a calming mood. Picnic Table & Comfy Seating. Lounge on rocker chairs or sway in the lover’s swing. Or, enjoy any meal with family and friends right on the deck’s picnic table accommodating 8-10, all while overlooking scenic views. Deer Delights. For captivating entertainment, stop by the Blue Ridge Fannin County Co-Op and buy molasses or apple laced corn. In the backyard, pour 10-inch tall corn piles spread 15 feet apart. Then pour yourself a favorite beverage and in the early morning or evening, be still-quiet and you will likely see deer amble in the yard to enjoy your benevolent banquet of corn. Sunset Serenity. End your mountain day by taking in stunning sunset views from this cabin’s comfortable west-facing deck. .
Main Level Queen Suite
The main floor Queen suite enjoys lots of windowed natural light. This room has a flat-screen TV, and ensuite full bath with tub/shower combo.
Loft Level
Sleep in a charming upstairs loft with cozy lighting. Wake in the large king-size bed to wood-paneled, A-frame ceilings and a room overlooking the downstairs living area. NOTE: This loft level has no bathroom.
Main Level Twin Beds
This other main floor bedroom has comfy two twin beds. A full tub/shower combo bathroom serves the living room and this 2-twin bedroom.
Mountain Range Hot Tub
Dissolve away your worries in a spacious 5-6 person hot tub overlooking a scenic mountain range. This soothing soaker is drained, sanitized, filled with clean mountain spring water, and pH-balanced before every arrival.
Fiery Night Skies
After dark, gather your night owl folks and head to the fire pit. Enjoy the nearby picnic table and marshmallow memories full of relaxed conversation while listening to nature’s nocturnal soundtrack. On clear nights don’t forget to look to the heavens. The cosmic, diamond-studded, velvet black sky you never see in the city will arrest you.
Amenities
A Simple Life offers serene sunset views against a beautiful mountain range. And best of all, the cabin is just 3.4 miles to historic downtown Blue Ridge and a scenic train ride touring picturesque landscapes.

Beautiful little cabin! We enjoyed the screened in porch and it has a very nice hot tub. Everything was very clean and we appreciated all the added touches of paper goods and toiletries. There is another house across the road but it was very private and quiet on the porches. Very wooded so little sunshine anywhere except the screen porch and some of the backyard. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it!

Wow! We were very impressed with the attention to detail at the cabin and the customer service. They checked in the day after arrival to make sure everything was good. We ended up having a little issue with the electric fireplace and they literally had someone out in 30 minutes to fix it! Very happy with the cabin, amenities and company!
