Overview

Esther and I wanted to make it affordable and after reading our many reviews, you will understand why are guests were surprised by what we offer. This beautiful, recently renovated cabin sits on 1+ acre of wooded land on the side of a hill overlooking the Trackrock Valley. Off in the distance, the tallest point in Georgia (4,784 ft) can be seen - Brasstown Bald Mountain and directly beneath the first and second deck, one can see a winding country road that passes a white-steepled church. You can hear cows calling out to each other and many other peaceful sounds as you drink that first morning cup of coffee on the lower deck or a cup of hot chocolate around the new fire pit. A new Amish glider was placed on the deck off the master bedroom allowing you to sit and enjoy the view.
It's hard to believe that only two hours northeast of the hustling and bustling noise of Atlanta, you can find such a tranquil setting and the opportunity to escape. Town is not that far as the picturesque town of Blairsville is only eight (8) miles away. You will pass over some of the most beautiful country you will ever see as you make your way over the winding road that leads to Blairsville.
Surrounding area: There is much to see and/or do. This is a photographer's dream ... so many beautiful pictures to capture! We have seen the Dogwood season begin to open on the mountain, a red-headed woodpecker hammering out a meal, graceful deer leap across our path and the neighbors tell us that we will see our share of black bears.
You are only minutes from Vogel State Park, Brasstown Bald, Helton Creek Falls, and the Appalachian Trail. Hiking trails are close by, horseback riding at the Trackrock Stables, tubing at Pappy's and in Helen, digging for gold in Dahlonega, boating and fishing at Notelly Lake, shopping at the Premium Outlet Mall (woo hoo!), swimming at Vogel State Park, jogging in Meeks Park, and in the Fall... the changing of the leaves and the local festivals.

About Esther or Carl
Esther and I have been married over 25 years and we love people as each person is unique. Have you ever sat in the Atlanta airport and watch people as they walk by, observe their manners, and gestures.
We have met the nicest people who have become our guests and many have provided insight into how we can better accommodate future guests which is what this is about. Many are just wanting to 'pay the mortgage', this is not an issue with us as we really desire to please our guests.
Esther or Carl purchased this cabin in 2011
Why Esther or Carl chose Blairsville
It was a foreclosure and when we walked through the door on Valentines Day 2011 and pulled back the drapes and saw the view, it was 'love at first sight'.
We then started to mold the cabin to our liking as Esther started to pick out the color of paint and obtain furniture from the local shops.
What makes this cabin unique
Choestoe Sanctuary is close to all the natural points of interest and provides a peaceful haven to rest and reflect. I am sure tthe reviews highlight this fact. Everything was added as though we were going to live here all the time as many places provide cheap items, we have not. Each time we vacation there, we add sometime new.
Guestbook comments from the owner
“Wonderful place to stay in North Georgia, gorgeous views and well located within driving places around North Georgia and North Carolina. Cabin was well equipped with all the necessary items to cook dinner each night and sit on the deck and enjoy the fall weather. The cabin has all that you need except for your clothes and food. Sitting on the deck each morning and at night was awesome and of course the hammock was a blessing in the late evening to relax and read a book. Carl and Esther made the stay more enjoyable with being accessible at all times with any questions that we had. Of course, Frank, the caretaker was available as well and enjoyed talking with us about our family in Florida and his family in Georgia. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the stay in your cabin and hope to come to stay again in the coming years.
Thanks, Janet and family, High Springs, Florida”

Beautiful and Cozy
I loved the place. It was in the cutest little town. With an awesome view. I got a ton of photos. The house itself is a good size and they provide so much. I had such a great time!!
Cabin has a beautiful view.
The cabin was equipped with all you would need. There are many places to visit nearby.
Beautiful view of Brasstown Bald
This was our 2nd time staying and we look forward to our next. The owners are very responsive and keep a very tidy cabin that they are obviously proud to share.
Cozy, Warm & Inviting
The second we walked into the cabin, we felt immediately at home. It was so cozy and warm. I loved both of the back porches, it’s where I spent most of my time at the cabin. Carl and Esther were so quick to respond to any questions and were a pleasure to rent from. We will be returning some day soon!
Cozy cabin & breath-taking views - adventure awaits!
This was our first time in the Mountains and it was our honeymoon! This cabin and the sweet town of Blairsville did not disappoint. We drove from Cocoa Florida and stayed from 3/11 through 3/16 and enjoyed every single second of the trip. Time stood still while we were here and the fully stocked cabin offered us everything we needed! This trip was nothing short of a dream and I cannot wait to book the next trip.
Carl and Esther, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most memorable trip we could ever ask for. Your kind hearts, warm hospitality and sweet card truly made my heart happy.

Great host!! Loved the cabin!! Perfect getaway for the weekend.
We enjoyed our time at Choestoe Sanctuary!! Lots of Hiking and waterfalls to see while we were there. Definitely looking forward to another stay in the future!!
Map
Our cabin is located in the desirable area known as Choestoe Hills overlooking the Trackrock Valley. We are not a cheap cabin, just affordable!
There are approximately ten (10) cabins in this area and only three are available to the public for renting.
Blairsville is 8 miles away with its many thrift stores, consignment and antique shops. For the serious shopper, the Premium Outlet Mall is about an hour away and Atlanta and Asheville, NC are two hours away. Helen, GA is about an 25 miles away with its many Christmas stores for shopping.
Blairsville was recently selected as one of the Applachian Trail towns with the Applachian Trail close by.
Pappy's, just down the road, has water tubing ... you can actually see the tubers go by as you sit and have your meal.
You will fall in love with this area and its people ... Southern hospitality is a reality in Blairsville!
Other Activities: White water rafting, many waterfalls, hiking trails, the beautiful Vogel State Park with its many trails, lake and water falls and the Appalachian Trail are all very close.
Golf: There are two golf courses within 10 miles... Butternut Creek Golf Course is a favorite and you will find a brochure inside the cabin.
Ski: Sky Valley, NC
This is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes away.
Fishing- this would be Southern Highroads Outfitters in Blairsville I had a guest who hired a guide for an awesome 4 hours fly fishing lesson and loved it. They are great people and my guest's wife texted me about all the fish he caught.
