Candlestick Cottage

Surrounded by natural beauty with an awe-inspiring view, the North Georgia mountain cabin rental Candlestick Cottage is a peaceful retreat with all the sights, sounds and smells of nature--like a rustic treehouse with all the modern amenities you crave. 

Perched on a hillside in Epworth, two miles from the Cohutta Wilderness Area and an 11-mile drive to the shops and restaurants of downtown Blue Ridge, the tri-level, log-sided and barn wood cabin tastefully mixes traditional and rustic décor, and features unique touches that will delight fans of everything Disney, especially “Beauty and the Beast.” 

A curio cabinet in the dining room displays several objects relating to the movie and its characters, including the enchanted rose, magic mirror, clock, pitcher and cup, and the candelabra that inspired the cabin’s name. Like Lumière singing “Be Our Guest,” Candlestick Cottage welcomes you to relax, be inspired, and find joy in everything that surrounds you.

The main living area is a showstopper, with a vaulted ceiling and enormous windows that maximize the incredible view. Put a log on the wood burning fireplace and settle into the comfortable leather couch (with two reclining sections) to watch the 50” TV, one of four flat screens in the cabin, all with DISH network.

The adjacent kitchen is spacious and fully stocked, with custom cabinets, granite counters, stainless appliances, gas stove and oven, icemaker, crockpot, and Keurig coffeemaker. There’s room for four at the breakfast bar, and the dining table seats six, but can accommodate eight with extra chairs. Prefer to dine alfresco? No problem: there’s a gas grill on the main level deck along with a wood burning fireplace and comfy seating. Your rental gives also you access to the neighborhood’s picnic area, furnished with a grill, tables, a gazebo, a stocked fishing pond, and many nearby hiking trails.

After dinner, you can soak your cares away in the six-person hot tub or head to the game room to play pool, board games, watch movies or play games on the DVD and Xbox equipped 50” TV. When it’s time to turn in, the cabin’s three inviting bedrooms ensure a restful night’s sleep. The upstairs master bedroom features a king sleigh bed, elegant bedding, a 50” flat screen TV, open loft, and private bath with custom wood vanity and double sinks, and large walk-in tiled shower. The main floor bedroom, with a king bed and 32” TV, has a separate bath with a custom wood vanity, copper sink, and walk-in tiled shower. There are two twin beds in the downstairs bedroom, and its adjacent bath has custom vanity and a shower/tub combo. A pull out queen bed in the game room brings the accommodations to eight.

Other amenities include Wifi, lighted ceiling fans in every room, a washer/dryer in the main floor bathroom, and paved/gravel driveway. But the best thing about this private, tranquil wooded oasis is the way you’ll feel from the minute you arrive till the moment you leave, taking awesome memories with you that will last a lifetime.
