Neighborhood highlights

Perfectly situated between the small towns of Blue Ridge and Ellijay, you'll find the number of things to do is only limited by the amount of time you spend here. Festivals are held year-round and are fun for all ages. Plentiful walking trails, waterfalls, tubing, and white water rafting, quaint shops and downtown eateries, multiple vineyards, and local arts & crafts. You can always find something to do in and around the local small towns. Fishing, Biking, 4-wheeling adventures await. Or just stay all day and relax on the hammock on the expansive screen porch. PLEASE NOTE: It is a two-mile off-road rustic experience to the cabin from the main road, with occasional steep inclines and dirt/gravel terrain. A SUV or 4 wheel vehicle is recommended, but not required. The road up to the cabin can be difficult in heavy rain or snow/ice. The drive up is definitely worth the humps & bumps when you get here! Plan ahead and stop at one of the food/supply stores on your way in, as it is about 20-25 minutes from the cabin once there. Walmart & grocery/fast food stores are plentiful in either Ellijay to the south or Blue Ridge to the north.
