About this property

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

  • Hiking enthusiast! This is a private and secluded 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 up 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.

Private creekside setting

Wonderful creekside cabin with multiple porches! The outdoor space next to the creek was a great space to relax. Inside the cabin had everything you would need to cook a meal , hang out or watch TV. Creek was much closer to the cabin than pictures show and it's noise could be heard throughout the home. Would definitely recommend to others and I would stay again!

Peaceful and quant

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay. This was such a peaceful piece of property! Just what we needed! Love the porches with the creek “music” right below. Loved the fact that there was a winery with live music less than a mile away from the house. We loved our time spent here. Hated when it was time for us to leave.

Great place to relax

Great base camp for hiking waterfalls trails and fishing in the area . Very private property . The kitchen was fully stocked for what we needed. There was a nice gravel walkway down to the creek with solar lights for the way back in the dark . You can hear the water flowing as soon as you get out of the car . We would love to stay here again . Owner called on check in day to make sure we had everything we needed . We visited places we had never been and made great memories !

Amazing family retreat. We already want to go back!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in northern Georgia. Nestled next to a peaceful creek and surrounded by nature, it was the perfect retreat for our family. The location is ideal—close to stunning state parks and waterfalls, making it easy to explore the wilderness. If you’re looking for great food, nearby Clayton and Helen have fantastic dining options.That said, some of our favorite moments were simply spent at the house—relaxing on the porch, listening to the creek, birds, and rustling leaves. It was pure tranquility, especially sharing those quiet moments with our 6- and 2-year-old daughters. Whether you’re up for adventure or just want to unwind, this home is a gem. The house is extremely well-kept. We’re so happy that the owner Nancy is willing to share her second home with us. We can’t wait to return!
