Other Details to Note

For guest security, there is a Ring floodlight camera overlooking the driveway and a Ring doorbell camera is located next to the front door. No additional cameras or audio recording systems are located on the premises. We do recommend all-wheel drive, 4-wheel drive, or snow tires between December and February in the rare case of icy or snowy roads on the mountain. As the cabin is on a mountain, some of the roads are steep. There is limited lighting on the roads in the mountains at night. We also recommend travel insurance in case of inclement weather. The wood-burning fireplace is available for use from October 1-March 1 and guests will need to supply their own firewood.

I booked this trip for my parents 60th & 70th birthdays, and the Knotty Bear did not disappoint! Edward was a wonderful host! He proactively communicated all necessary information leading up to our arrival and throughout the trip. The cabin had some of the most stunning mountain views and was conveniently located to both downtown Blue Ridge and Elijay. I appreciate Edward and the KB team for thinking of everything a guest could need to best accommodate and make the trip so enjoyable and relaxing! Hands down would recommend this cabin to anyone traveling to the area!

Such a beautiful view! Was able to watch the most beautiful sunrises while sitting on the porch, drinking coffee. Great amenities and special touches throughout the cabin. My husband and I grilled out and cooked at the cabin most nights. We made good use of the grill and I was happy to see that all of the cabinets were fully stocked with everything we needed to cook with. It was the perfect fall getaway, and we enjoyed every bit of it. We definitely wouldn’t hesitate to re-book Knotty Bear when we come back to Blue Ridge. Of note: I live in a rural wooded area in Florida, so I am no stranger to bugs and such, however, there were so many spiders on the back porch. The host had a can of Raid under the sink so that was a very nice touch. That was much appreciated! Lol! We killed everything we saw on the night we arrived and didn’t have any issues after that.

My husband and I visited for our ten year wedding anniversary. The place was perfect! It was easy to locate and in a beautiful area. My most favorite part was the amazing view!!! I want to make another trip soon and bring our kiddos. Thanks so much for having us!

Beautiful view, fun drive up to the cabin, the cabin was perfect for our getaway. There is an amazing hiking trail just up the road, definitely worth the hike. At one point we wanted the hottub to be cleaned and they sent someone to fully drain and clean it within an hour of messaging them, the response time and service was amazing!! We will definitely be visiting again in the future!!

Knotty Bear was a beautiful cabin and an excellent stay for a short trip with my best friend! The views are spectacular and the deck is the perfect spot to take in a stunning sunrise. The last 2 miles of the drive in are VERY steep in places so make sure you're prepared and arrive before dark. Edward and team were very responsive when we reached out with small questions, the house was clean and cozy, and we had everything we needed to make this a relaxing stay. There's an Ingles Market just 20 mins away in Blue Ridge and I definitely suggest you stop by Mercier Orchards for some great cider and baked goods. I'd 100% recommend this cabin and will stay here again next time I'm in the area!
