Your Own Private Dock on a Quiet Pond
fire pit, and two gas fireplaces.
The Rustic Ruby is a 2.5-acre waterfront retreat in Morganton, Georgia, fifteen minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. Mornings mean fishing off the dock, evenings mean the fire pit swing and a sky dark enough to count the stars.
Where mornings begin with mist on the water
and evenings end by the fire.
There's a reason guests keep coming back. The Rustic Ruby gives you a private dock, 2.5 quiet acres, and a fire pit swing waiting at the end of the day.
Wake to mist rising off the pond, coffee in hand on your own dock. The pond is shared with a couple of neighboring homeowners, never open to the public, so it stays peaceful and uncrowded. Fish for bass, trout, catfish, and bluegill right from the water's edge, or settle into the screened-in porch and watch the pond glimmer through the trees.
When evening comes, load the custom swing fire pit with firewood picked up in Blue Ridge and watch the string lights take over as the sky goes dark. Inside, two gas fireplaces, one in the living room and one in the primary bedroom, keep the cabin warm through cool mountain nights.

"Had a great stay! Perfect cabin for a quiet getaway! Close enough to town to enjoy all of blue ridge, yet far enough away to have quiet and peaceful evenings relaxing on the porch! Caught tons of fish in the pond and seen deer on the property daily! Would absolutely stay there again!"
"We absolutely loved our time at the Rustic Ruby! It felt very secluded and private and we enjoyed being immersed in nature. It was lovely to wake up each morning and have coffee on the dock and spend time by the fire at night looking at stars and watching the fireflies."
"The Rustic Ruby was beautiful! It felt like home as soon as you walked through the door. The outside is stunning with the screened-in porch continuing to the swings and the deck at the pond."
"Jasmine and Dustin are great hosts and their mountain cabin is lovely! The property is exactly as pictured and described inside and out. The location on Morganton lakes is a beautiful area for a peaceful retreat, while still being 15 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge."
"We absolutely loved our stay at Rustic Ruby! If you're looking for peace, quiet, and privacy, this is the perfect place. We enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit, making s'mores, and simply unwinding."
"The pictures doesn't do this place justice. It is absolutely breathtaking. There's two fireplaces, a telescope, tv's in each bedroom, fire pit, swings, fishing rods, games to play, a grill, patio furniture and a beautiful front porch with two rocking chairs."
