About This Space
This family owned cabin has a mesmerizing view of the mountains and valleys surrounding Lake Blue Ridge. We’re centrally located 5 minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge, Lake Blue Ridge, and the Aska Trail System. At 2000 sqft it's spacious for two, made for families, and a great time for up to 6 adults. Pets welcome! This cabin has been our family’s gateway to the mountains and favorite place to unwind for over 30 years.  We hope you’ll feel at home here building your own Blue Ridge Traditions. 

The home features three bedrooms with queen bedroom located on the main floor and two queen bedrooms on the lower level.  Each floor has a full size bathroom including a tub/shower combo.

The living room, dining room and kitchen are on the main floor with access to the loft just inside the entrance to the home.  

The game room is located in the lower level featuring a pool table, darts and seating area to watch the fun!  

The full size washer/dryer are also located on the lower level.

The View
Blue Ridge has come a long way since 1985 when Dad first staked our land in Tanglewood Forest. Having first pick on the mountain has its advantages. Maybe we’re biased, but we’ve yet to see a better view!
You’ll fall in love with the wide panoramic view overlooking the mountains and valleys with patches of Lake Blue Ridge throughout. The cabin was built to show off the view from the entire main floor with windows all along the east wall, and with 50’ of eastern facing porch and large open air deck.

The sunrises are unforgettable. You’ll want to wake up early each day to see what new masterpiece awaits. Even the late sleeper will find it worthwhile to grab a pillow and blanket and stumble their way to the couch to enjoy a stunning sunrise through the large picture window.

It never gets old and you’ll want to come back season after season to see it change.
