Creekside Cabin on 40 Acres, F/P, Campfire, Trail by Creek

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin feels completely isolated even though it is fairly close to town. The creek is beautiful. The owners made us feel quite at home and checked in with us to make sure everything was OK. We saw a blue heron and a black bear near the creek, as well as plenty of butterflies and birds. This was our second stay here and we look forward to our third.

The cabin and surroundings are beautiful. Sitting on the porch and listening to the water running through the creek was my favorite part . It has a large area that allowed my grand children to enjoy playing outside. We felt right at home. Definitely our favorite cabin.

This is a beautiful meadow type setting of a cabin in the Chattahoochee National Forest of the North Georgia Mountains. A significant size winding creek borders very close to the cabin’s front porch. Seclusion, natural setting and peacefulness are a few of its assets. A significant effort has been made to enhance your stay toward enjoying nature – very large screened-in front porch, flower garden, inviting outdoor sitting areas, outdoor fire-pit and a primitive nature trail on the property.

The cabin, itself, was very clean, efficient, decorated with character and had comfortable beds and furnishings. The kitchen/dinning provided everything you needed. The primitive nature of the cabin did not sacrifice comfort. It was such a special place to spend time in the Georgia Mountains !

We took 2 one-day trips to Chattanooga, TN and one trip to Ellijay, GA. and explored the neighboring mountain areas. For dinning in Ellijay – we recommend Cantaberry’s for lunch and Charlie’s Italian for dinner. We liked Puckett’s in Chattanooga.

Also, within a 2 minute drive - there is a trailhead access point (near the historic Dennis Mill) to the famous 337-mile Pinhoti Trail. I hiked about 5 miles of this trail and once you enter into the National Forest it is very pretty. I had my wife drop me off at the trailhead and I simply walked back to the cabin (I mile). In addition - you’re within a 30 minute drive to the Cohutta Wilderness Area for additional hiking.

So, there you have it – our experience at “Wildacre”. I rate our overall experience A+.

Wildacre met our needs perfectly! We were looking for a place close to Fort Mountain State Park and Chatsworth for the Teardrop Half Marathon. Wildacre is about 10 miles outside of Chatworth, close enough, but still far away so we could have a remote and relaxing place after the half marathon. Wildacre was great! The photos in the HomeAway listing were not really accurate - - Wildacre was actually much BETTER than depicted in the photos! You simply cannot appreciate how wonderful it is to be on 40 acres, with a noisy creek literally feet from the front screened in porch and the master bedroom. Wildacre is a charming older home (take that as a positive statement, not negative) that was very clean when we arrived. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, foil, wrap, and all the necessities. Judy was quite attentive to our needs, and we felt very welcomed!

We have already told our friends and relatives about Wildacre, and we plan to return when we need a nice relaxing weekend. We are also looking forward to hiking some of the trails in the nearby woods. Thank you again for helping us find a great get-away!

What a great visit we had at Wildacre!

Our son Charlie and his wife Laura, from Atlanta, our son Andrew from Brooklyn, and Katie and I all were very impressed by your attention to detail and the absolutely wonderful place! Just fantastic!

We had a great time seeing the many details. On the third day I was still seeing things I hadn't noticed before. Its a museum, actually, combined with a luxury suite in a national forest. Really impressive!

We had a few rain showers and that porch was just a wonderful place to sit and enjoy it.
