About the host
Hosted by Hardy Underhay
I am originally from South Africa and have lived in the United States for almost 30 years. In my younger days I backpacked around the world for several years. I enjoyed and can relate to staying in different places with many different hosts. I look forward to providing the same experiences to my guests. I enjoy motorcycle riding in and around the Toccoa area. There are many curvy and mountainous roads to choose from providing beautiful vistas and scenery. I enjoy life and try to live everyday to the fullest sharing adventures or ideas with other like minded people. Feel free to reach out if you would like some suggestions on points of interest, rides, restaurants or scenic routes. After staying at my place I think you would agree that I go over and above any other place or VRBO you have ever stayed at before.
Why they chose this property
House is located on a very quiet, dead end road, 5 minutes from town, 2 minutes from a beautiful park, 4 minutes from spectacular Toccoa Falls, 30 minutes from Tallulah Gorge and hiking trails all around. 45 minutes to stunning Helen (German town)
40 minutes in almost any direction and you are in the Smokey mountains. Great location for any motorcycle enthusiasts. Many hiking or biking trails in the area.
What makes this property unique
Quiet and secluded property with little to no noise. Fenced in front yard to have your dogs run free. Large back yard to have the kids play games. With the amenities that I offer you would see that I go over and above any other place or VRBO you have ever stayed at before.
