Why the Owner Chose Lookout Mountain
Unlike other more populated mountain areas in GA, Cloudland, GA, where Ridgetop is located, is private with little to no tourism to interfere with one's enjoyment of mountain living. And yet there is easy access to nearby TN and AL, plus several restaurants, a hang glding school, antiques, and grocery. And yet many of Pamela's guests once at Ridgetop refuse to go away from that spectacular view and stay put, cooking, playing games, watching one of the movies from the video library, and enjoying family and friends. You won't want to leave and you will want to return year after year. She is sure of it!
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Enjoy the view, the oversized hot tub, the new Jennaire grill, barbecuing outside, the buckstove that heats the entire house, the walk down the quaint dirt road in front of the house. Select from over 100 movies. Sit at the outdoor bar that makes you feel as if you are soaring over Shinbone Valley below. You cannot help but feel at peace and relaxed while visiting Ridgetop.
Owner's Map of Lookout Mountain
Along with Julie Ellis, Pamela Evans owns this wonderful home on the top of Lookout Mountain. Many years ago, Pamela starting visiting the area when a friend of hers ran a girls camp in nearby Mentone. She fell in love with the mountain, the cool air, the views, the privacy and decided to purchase a home on the brow in an area called Eagles' Roost by the locals. One of her favorite singers from the 1970s was Jessie Colin Young who sang about his own mountaintop home called Ridgetop -- that's how this special place got its name. Pamela spent years furnishing Ridgetop with antiques and charming artwork. She rebuilt the deck to make it huge enough to accommodate a large hot tub and full living area with outdoor dining. And most recently she updated the kitchen with all new appliances. Ridgetop is a one of a kind experience and Pamela loves being able to share her special home with you.
