**Getting Here**

Your mountain adventure begins with the final half-mile of gravel road leading to the cabin. There are a few short, steep, narrow, and bumpy sections, but most passenger vehicles make the drive without any issues by simply taking it slow.

If you'd like to preview the drive before your trip, search YouTube for "Drive to Lair of the Bear" by Restful Hideaways.
We think you'll agree the mountain views and peaceful setting are well worth the journey.

**Good to Know**

• A vehicle is required to access the cabin.
• High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the cabin.
• Cable TV and local channels are not provided. All TVs are Roku Smart TVs where you can stream using your own subscriptions.
• The indoor gas fireplace is available October 1 through April 1. (Using it during warmer months can damage the air conditioning system.) The outdoor fireplace and firepit are available year-round.
* Nature is part of the experience! Our cabin is surrounded by the beautiful North Georgia forest, so it's common to see deer, birds, squirrels, and other wildlife. Depending on the season, you may also encounter insects or spiders outdoors—and occasionally indoors despite our regular pest control. This is a normal part of staying in a mountain cabin.
• Because the cabin sits on a mountainside overlooking the valley, you may occasionally hear distant highway noise while outdoors. Most guests find it quickly fades into the background as they enjoy the incredible views and peaceful surroundings.

**House Policies**

• Primary renter must be at least 25 years old.
• Maximum occupancy must match the number of guests on the reservation. Unauthorized guests are not permitted.
• No smoking/vaping inside the cabin.
• No parties or events without prior host approval.
• Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome with prior host approval.
• Guests are required to sign a separate rental agreement within 48 hours of booking. For last-minute reservations, the agreement must be completed before check-in instructions are released.
• A $500 security deposit hold is required two days before arrival. This is a temporary authorization and is released after checkout, provided no damage occurs.
• Weather in the North Georgia mountains can be unpredictable and is outside of our control. Severe weather may occasionally impact road conditions, power, internet, or other utility services. Refunds cannot be issued for weather-related events or interruptions caused by circumstances beyond our control. We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance for added peace of mind in case your plans are affected.

We want your stay to be as relaxing and memorable as possible. If you need anything before or during your visit, we're only a message away and are always happy to help.

We'd love the opportunity to host your Blue Ridge getaway!
