Wake Up on the Lake; Bear Paw Lodge; 5-STAR Top10%

From the moment you walk through the grand double doors, you’re greeted by vaulted ceilings soaring over 22 feet high, rich hardwood beams, and breathtaking views of both the lake and surrounding mountains. With 4 spacious bedrooms, 4.5 spa-inspired bathrooms, and two full kitchens (including a chef’s dream kitchen outfitted with top-of-the-line European appliances), every inch of this cabin is crafted for comfort, entertaining, and unforgettable memories. Relax by one of three fireplaces – two indoors for cozy nights in, and one outside on the expansive deck overlooking the water. Every detail is elevated: high end furnishings, plush premium linens, designer lighting, and hand-selected decor that blends rustic charm with upscale sophistication. Enjoy easy access on all-paved roads, then retreat to the most exclusive spot on the lake – ideal for kayaking, paddle boarding, or simply sipping wine by the fire as the sun sets behind the mountains. Whether you’re hosting a gourmet dinner, escaping for a romantic couples’ weekend, or gathering the family for lakeside adventure – Bear Paw Lodge delivers a Blue Ridge experience unlike any other. **HIGHLIGHTS** SOUGHT AFTER LOCATIONq - 4mi (9 mins) → downtown Blue Ridge - 17 mins → downtown Ellijay - Located on Big Sisson Lake, with direct lake access (private lake with unobstructed views) - Lake, mountain, and wooded views - Common deer and wildlife sightings - Surrounded by trees for seclusion - Paved roads all the way to the cabin, including a paved driveway WELCOMING ENTRY - Detailed, step by step check-in directions - Driveway lined with solar and motion lighting - 2 Car garage plus parking for multiple cars - Smart lock for convenient & secure access - Covered and well-lit front porch with bistro set for 2 - Custom guidebook with local recommendations SOAK IN THE OUTDOORS ENJOY THE LAKE - Fishing poles for kids and adults - 8 Life jackets - Views from nearly room in the cabin MAIN LEVEL (No stairs required) - Deck with: glider, dining table for 4, dining table for 6, and dual-fuel gas or charcoal grill - Propane fireplace - Overlooking Big Sisson Lake LOWER LEVEL - Hot tub with seating for 8 - Lift-assist for quick and easy hot tub cover removal - Deck with seating for 10: 4 rocking chairs, glider, and chairs with footrests - Access to backyard and Big Sisson Lake LAKE ACCESS - Manicured path from cabin to lake - Water-side fire pit with seating for 10 ENTRY - Bistro set for 2 OPEN CONCEPT MAIN LEVEL - No stairs required LIVING ROOM 1: - 15 foot vaulted ceilings - Floor to ceiling stone fireplace - Convenient, switch-enabled gas fireplace - XL Sectional seating - 65” smart tv - Conversation set and poufs for additional seating - Overlooking Big Sisson Lake DINING AREA 1: - Custom dining table with seating for 6 EAT-IN KITCHEN 1: - Top of the line, Italian Fulgor Milano stainless steel appliances including: a 6 burner gas stove with pop-up vent, drawer-style microwave, low decibel dishwasher, refrigerator with filtered water, and freezer with ice maker - Small appliances: dual drip and Kcup coffee maker, Kitchen aid mixer, pressure cooker, slow cooker, electric can opener, toaster oven, air fryer, Ninja blender, and Ninja food processor - Custom quartzite countertops - Custom wood-slab island with bar seating for 3 MAIN LEVEL BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS - No stairs required - PRIMARY BEDROOM ENSUITE 1: king bed, 42” smart tv, sliding patio doors overlooking Big Sisson Lake, ceiling fan, full attached bathroom - PRIMARY BATHROOM 1: walk-in shower with shower wand - BEDROOM 4: queen bed, 42” smart tv, ceiling fan, adjacent to full bathroom - BATHROOM 4: walk-in shower with shower wand - HALF BATHROOM: with custom, whiskey barrel vanity and copper sink - Baby gates at the top and bottom of stairs MAIN LEVEL LAUNDRY - Full sized washer and dryer - Sink and clothing rack - Iron & ironing board OPEN FLOOR PLAN LOWER LEVEL LIVING ROOM 2: - Floor to ceiling stone fireplace - Convenient, switch-enabled gas fireplace - XL Sectional seating - 65” smart tv - Poufs for additional seating THEATER/ARCADE ROOM: - Reclining massage chairs for 6 - 85” smart tv - PacMan and Galaga joystick arcade game READING NOOK: - Barrel seat - Take One Leave One library - Various games and puzzles OFFICE SPACE: - Office desk and chair KITCHEN 2: - Stainless appliances including: induction flat-top stove, dishwasher, refrigerator with filter water, and freezer with ice maker - Small appliances include: dual drip and Kcup coffee maker, Instapot pressure and slow cooker, toaster oven, air fryer, Ninja blender, and Nutribullet individual cup blender LOWER LEVEL ENSUITE BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS - PRIMARY BEDROOM ENSUITE 2: king bed, 60” smart tv, wall to wall windows overlooking Big Sisson Lake, ceiling fan, full attached bathroom - PRIMARY BATHROOM 2: dual vanities, walk-in shower with shower wand, separate water closet - PRIMARY BEDROOM ENSUITE 3: queen bed, 42” smart tv, wall to wall windows overlooking Big Sisson Lake, ceiling fan, full attached bathroom - PRIMARY BATHROOM 3: walk-in shower with shower wand BRING THE WHOLE FAMILY - 2 Main floor bedrooms, bathrooms, & laundry - Baby bathtub - Pack and play travel crib - High chair - Baby and kid friendly dinnerware - Child safety gates at the top and bottom of the stairs - Child-sized fishing rods - Smart TVs in all bedrooms - Waterproof mattress and pillow covers in all bedrooms - Blackout window treatments - All showers have detaching shower wands - Plastic dinnerware, silverware, & cups - Full sized laundry - 2 Living rooms - Theater and arcade room ADDED FOR COMFORT - Smart home features: smart locks for secure and convenient access, motion-activated lighting, highspeed Wi-Fi, smart TVs - Whole-home generator, never without power!
