About this house rental


This Private Luxury Cabin Retreat sits nestled on its very own unique ridge along the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. You can hear the nearby streams and waterfalls (hiking trails through three streams begin on the property). From the deck the nearest neighbors are hundreds of yards away for a truly secluded escape.

The ultimate mountain getaway with all the amenities to relax: outdoor hot tub, wood burning fireplaces, luxury master bath, outdoor fire pit table, outdoor green egg smoker, Blackstone Griddle, home movie theater, pool table, shuffleboard, arcade, and more.

Amazing views with a huge wrap around porch with over 2500 sqft. of total deck space.

Entertainment
Uniquely fun “SnapBack” shuffle board table (includes bowling pins)

77” LG OLED tv with 7.1 Dolby atmos surround sound. push button recline leather theater seating. Arguably better than the movies.

Retro/modern 20,000 game arcade with 4 player positions. Endless fun for the youth and non stop nostalgia for the young at heart.

Bent Tree’s Lake Tamarack. 110-Acre Lake Tamarack is a beautiful, scenic feature of the Bent Tree Community. Paddleboard or canoe the lake, fish from the house, swim from the large beach and let the kids monkey about the playground and volleyball courts.

Bent Tree Golf Course & Pro Shop (0.4 miles)
Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the golf course at Bent Tree is one of North Georgia’s most beautiful 18-hole championship courses. The Joe Lee designed course meanders through the base of several mountains, past waterfalls, mountain streams, and brooks, boldly confronting the broad shoulder of Sharp Top Mountain. Golfing is an added expense to the visit if you so desire and reservations are recommended. https://golf.bent-tree.com/

The host, Matt, was without question the most attentive and thoughtful host we've ever had. He went out of his way to supply us with needed items. He got back to us very quickly to answer our questions even tho he was on a cruise with his wife. Matt made us feel so welcomed! The cabin itself is lovely but be ready for a dramatic drive to your destination... which in turn gives you an awesome view with plenty of nature to enjoy. The trail heads at the end of the driveway were such a plus. Even tho you feel tucked up high on a mountain ridge, club house dining is only 10 minutes away. Our whole group enjoyed the amenities in Bent Tree resort even in the fall.

This was such a great stay. Any issues were dealt with promptly by Matt personally. It was such a relief to have a great owner. The driveway was definitely steep so make sure you’re comfortable with that. The house itself was very comfortable for our group of 15. We didn’t feel like we were on top of one another. The kids loved the basement room, theater and game room.It was great having hiking trails right outside the door and not needing to drive somewhere else. We would definitely stay here again. The view is incredible and totally worth the driveway!

Matt was an exceedingly communicative host - the kind you wish every rental had. We had a couple minor issues that were addressed immediately, and he made sure to encourage us to reach out if we needed anything else. The cabin was lovely, with tons of space for our large group. The kids barely wanted to leave the basement with all of its fun amenities and awesome bunk beds. You could tell this was a property owned and used by a family, not a large company taking all of the shortcuts for profit. The beds were very comfortable. The views were better than the pictures, and the back deck was huge with plenty of seating for everyone. The hot tub was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped - we held a Friendsgiving/birthday celebration and weren’t missing any cooking tools. This place was really great for a large group, and we appreciated the host’s hospitality.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2023
While the House was what we needed for our event, there are lots of issues with the lighting and ceiling fans. None of the fans could operate without having the fan light on - not good for the bedrooms or in the main living room. Many fixtures in the kitchen were missing bulbs or they were burned out. Also, there are no window treatments or blinds in the primary bedroom. But overall it is a nice house with lots of space.
