A Hiker's Paradise Private Cabin on Small, Rushing Stream Near A/T-

10% DISCOUNT ON NIGHTLY RATE FOR 7 NIGHTS OR MORE! Hiking enthusiast! This is a private two story cabin with a loud, rushing stream and not a soul in sight. It is the perfect place to relax, unwind, or if you like, start or end your hike. Less than two miles by car to Dick's Creek A/T access. If you would rather...you can take an easy 2 mile hike down the private National Forest Road in front of the cabin and then go approximately an additional 1 mile moderate hike which will bring you to Tom Cowart Gap on the A/T. Not a hiker, well just take a quiet stroll through the park like setting along the tree canopied path with 200 ft of rushing stream bordered by National Forest along the back of property. Complete seclusion! There is a fire pit, swing and benches there for your enjoyment. It's the perfect place to just sit and relax. With two porches and an upstairs screened balcony, you never have to leave the comfort of the cabin to enjoy the sights and sounds of the stream below. The three upstairs bedrooms (one with it's own private, screened balcony) each have queen beds for your comfort. All are equipped with ceiling fans, alarm /sound machines. The cabin has two full baths (one upstairs and a smaller full bath downstairs). There is a large family room with a glass fronted wood stove and large screen Smart TV with Roku device and a separate living area with TV off the dining area. Wifi, Direct TV and telephone with free long distance are also included. The cabin has a rec /laundry room with a TV with Roku or for videos or video games (you must bring) and plenty of games and puzzles for those rainy days or family night.
If you just need a home base, this is the perfect place. The cabin is centrally located to many of North Georgia's prime locations....The Georgia Mountain Fair Grounds (approx. 9 miles,) Lake Chatuge and Lake Burton (approx. 7 miles). Clayton, Blairsville, and Helen are all within 20 miles of the cabin. Hightower Winery is 1/2 mile away, A/T trail head 1 1/2 to 2 miles by car. Completely furnished with everything you'll need to enjoy the quiet seclusion of this mountain retreat. Come stay a week or a long weekend...you will never want to leave.

Beautiful cabin, well maintained, excellent location and hostess very responsive in a timely manner. Hope to return soon with the grandchildren. The creek was awesome and the trails were fun. Small towns near by were interesting providing some shopping and eating out but honestly we really didn't want to leave the cabin! Excellent choice for getting away from it all for a few days.

Absolutely Magical!

Can’t say enough about this place! Great location. Everything you can need in the kitchen. The playroom was perfect for game nights. And the creek. Can’t say enough about the creek! Our whole family spent hours in the creek collecting beautiful rocks and splashing around. We could have spent a month here! If there was a place we would ever return - this would be it! Thanks for a wonderful week. It went by way too fast!

Our second stay

This was our second time and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Our kids love to play in the creek and explore. It is very relaxing and quiet and clean…perfect for a relaxing getaway. One afternoon we got home and the air conditioning wasn’t working. I called Nancy and she has someone out to fix it within a couple of hours. She is always welcoming and very responsive.

Nancy is a kind owner that communicates well and when needed. The home is extremely well kept, and stocked. The cleaners do an amazing job, and everything is fresh and new when you arrive. The property is beautiful and we spent hours exploring the trails and sitting by the creek.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy J Wilson

Host profile image
My late husband and I had been coming to the Appalachian Mountain areas for more than 40 years and were so lucky to have found this piece of paradise to purchase for our own use.

Why they chose this property

I love the North Georgia Mountain area.... the people, the scenery and there is always something to see or do.

What makes this property unique

The peaceful, quiet woods with no visible house in sight. The sound of the stream is so relaxing. Several places to "escape" from the crowd.
