This lovely A-Frame nestled in the woods has it all! Just off of Lake Blue Ridge in the verdant North Georgia Mountains, this home has huge common areas and cozy bedrooms. It's just far enough from the highway that only woodland sounds (and the occasional power boat) will be your soundtrack, yet civilized enough to have all utilities, cable TV, Smart Home features and fast fiber optic Internet. Dining, shopping, and entertainment options are all close at hand (10-20 minutes.) The house is newly redone with enhanced landscaping, a new fire ring, fresh paint and lighting throughout, new bathrooms, new kitchen appliances, upgraded electrical including vehicle charging outlet and automatic standby generator. Since this is also OUR vacation home, you'll find that it is exceptionally well maintained! It is always our goal to surpass our guests' highest expectations! The whole space is yours to explore. You can reach me (or leave a message) during your stay through the AirBnB platform or phone and I will respond promptly. Small, heavily wooded, residential neighborhood, a mile from the highway and surrounded on all sides by 3300 acre lake or National Forest. Lake access is via path through national forest (10-15 minute walk), or at Morganton Point Rec Area (2 miles away, fee). Kayak, boat and SUP rentals are available for a day on the lake, with raft and tube float trips in area whitewater adventures. The area is a hiker's paradise, as the origin point for both the Appalachian Trail and the Benton MacKaye Trail, in addition to many smaller and loop trails exploring scenic woodlands and waterfalls. More sedate pleasures are available on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad, with shopping and dining opportunities in nearby Blue Ridge (6 miles) and McCaysville/Copper Hill (14 miles.) The area also is home to several orchards, breweries, wineries, and distilleries for those who prefer something a bit stronger. We are a bit off the beaten path, but the path is paved and well-maintained, including a concrete driveway for that last few feet! Getting here, or to the nearby towns, requires a car, but on-site parking is plentiful. Those with an electric vehicle can recharge their ride with an outside 50A-220 volt outlet. Neighborhood roads are hilly, but walker-friendly. Because we are in the woods, one specific tree near the driveway makes it a bit tight for larger trucks, RVs, and vehicles with trailers. It's doable, but requires caution. We think this is an amazing house (we are, admittedly, biased) though it can't be all things to all people. There are some things we don't have, and if any of these are critical, you may want to look elsewhere. - We are one property removed from the lake shore and do not have direct lake access. Access is available through nearby forest service lands and at Morganton Point Recreation Area. - Televisions in kitchen and living room only; currently none in bedrooms. - Half bath upstairs carved out of living room. Full bath downstairs serves both bedrooms (not ensuite.) - Queen-size mattresses (anything larger won't fit.) - No spa tub (yet.) - For allergy reasons, we cannot host your cat(s) or smokers.
