A Rolling River Cabin was amazingly beautiful! We had a group of 8 (4 couples), and everyone was taken care of perfectly. We all had everything we needed. Anytime we need a cabin, I will definitely rent this property. On our trip, we were able to whitewater raft...

Who is Chester Brunnenmeyer?Chester Brunnenmeyer’s Bar and Grill is owned and operated by Chester’s grandson, Stuart Arp, and his wife, Stacy Heath. Chester’s parents, John and Lena, owned and operated a saloon in the small town of Washington, IL, from 1896 until 1906, when the town went dry. They then turned the business into Brunnenmeyer’s grocery store, where Chester delivered groceries for many years. In 1944, Chester inherited the building and transformed it into a tavern called The Spot, where on October 5, 1952, his daughter, Mary Brunnenmeyer, and her new husband, Harlan K. Arp, had their wedding reception. Chester operated The Spot until he sold the building shortly after Mary and Harlan’s wedding.
The Gartrell BuildingChester Brunnenmeyer’s Bar and Grill is located on the first floor of the old Gartrell Hotel. During the 1920s and 1930s, Blue Ridge, GA, was a bustling rail center where tourists came to visit attractions such as the mineral springs and the Mary P. Willingham School for Girls. The Gartrell Hotel, owned and operated by Annie and William Gartrell, accommodated the visitors. It contained 12 rooms on the second floor with retail stores below. The building changed hands several times throughout the years, becoming a flower shop, an auto parts store, and an antique mall. In 2014, the building was bought and restored by Mike and Sherry Triebert. The upstairs still resembles the layout of the old Gartrell Hotel but is now the Blue Ridge Antique Mall.

|  The Memories A Rolling River Cabin was amazingly beautiful! We had a group of 8 (4 couples), and everyone was taken care of perfectly. We all had everything we needed. Anytime we need a cabin, I will definitely rent this property. On our trip, we were able to whitewater raft (which was only about 20 minutes from the cabin), and it was an amazing experience. I wish we could have stayed longer than just a weekend, but of course work calls! What a Wonderful week! This is our 2nd time at one of Gary and Lissa's cabins, but our first time here at Outlaw Ridge, and it just keeps getting better! We look forward to our next trip and trying another great cabin!
