About this property

Secluded Cabin + Water View+Hot Tub+Custom Firepit

Welcome to The Rustic Ruby, a peaceful waterfront cabin near Blue Ridge, Georgia, where life slows down and the mountains invite you to breathe deep. Whether you're planning a romantic getaway or a quiet family escape, this cozy cabin offers comfort, nature, and the warm feeling of coming home.

Nestled among the trees with a small private lake right in the backyard, The Rustic Ruby is the kind of place where mornings start with coffee on the dock and evenings end around the custom fire pit under the stars. Spend your days soaking in the 4-person hot tub, curled up by one of the two gas fireplaces, fishing from the dock, playing games, or simply enjoying the peacefulness of the mountains.

Inside, the cabin is thoughtfully furnished, freshly updated, and fully stocked with everything you need to unwind. Outside, nature does the rest, the ducks visiting the pond, the soft rustle of the trees, the quiet that settles in like a blanket.

If you’re searching for a Blue Ridge cabin with a hot tub, dock, fire pit, and tranquil waterfront views, The Rustic Ruby delivers the kind of stay guests rave about.

The Rustic Ruby was exceptionally clean, comfortable beds and furniture. Sitting on the porches, swinging by the fire pit or fishing off the dock was just the comfy hug we needed. The cabin had all the accommodations with a few extra special touches that made us feel welcomed. Hope to return one day and enjoy this special gem.

Never Disappoints, We Hate Leaving

My husband and I spend every anniversary getaway here. It’s only been the third time, but each time we end up back even if we briefly consider another spot. The scenery is perfect, privacy is perfect, and a porched in hot tub?? Can’t get better. I jokingly said we need to just sign up for an annual membership. It’s our favorite spot.

A private pond just steps from the back door is rare in the Blue Ridge area. Sip coffee on the dock, watch the ducks glide across the water, or cast a line and enjoy quiet fishing moments.

Two gas fireplaces—one in the living room and one in the primary bedroom—create warm, romantic ambiance year-round. Updated interiors and thoughtful amenities make the cabin feel clean, fresh, and inviting.

Whether you're celebrating an anniversary or bringing the kids for an unplugged escape, this cabin offers spaces for connection, comfort, and memory-making.

✨ Close to Everything—but Peacefully Tucked Away
