Photos and Description of the Scaly Mountain vacation house rental Rustic Mountain Cabin with View

This secluded mountain cabin is on 3 1/3 wooded acres with mountain view from front balcony. The landscaping includes natural wooded areas and wildflower gardens, and a 3' pool with waterfall. The custom designed cabin features 2 levels with separate entrances, perfect for 2 couples. The main room includes a master bedroom with double bed, a full bath, kitchen, and spacious great room (which can sleep another person on a couch that pulls out to a single bed) with large windows overlooking beautiful mountain scenery provide natural light and a wood stove takes the chill off of cool mountain evenings. The great room opens onto a balcony that extends the full length of the cabin, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the mountain air and spectacular view. There is a covered side porch with table, chairs and a porch swing. If you would like additional pictures, I can email them to you.

Great Get Away

Relaxing in the Mountains Miami, Fl. USA
Review Submitted: January 9, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This place is a perfect get away. Very private with a good paved road. However, not too remote considering the altitude. House has everything you need and was very clean with a great view from the deck.

There are so many places to visit and things to do, most are less than 20 - 30 minutes away. We stayed 2 weeks and did something new everyday.

Things we did in the Highlands / Scaly area:
Hiked Rabun Bald (2nd highest Mt in Ga) 360 view
Hiked Scaly Mt.
Hiked Sunset Rocks in Highlands
Hiked Glenn Falls
Hiked Whiteside Mt (2000' drop off)
Drove to Dry Falls
Drove to Bridal falls
Drove to Black Rock state park
Drove into NE Ga down Hald ridge rd into National forest (saw wild turkey)
Picked wild berries and purchased local home grown produce
Sightseeing, Shopping & Dining in Highlands
Swimming in Rocky Knob lake surrounded by Mountains
Swimming in Mt. stream in National Forest
Swimming under the waterfall in Sky Valley resort
Watching mist rise from the valley on the deck

Even if hiking, sightseeing & swimming are not your thing you could just relax at the house, on the deck or porch. At 4000', the view is great.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Pet-friendly, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thank you so much, Paul. We are always happy to hear that our place was right for you and that you had such a good time. You were also a great guest. We hope you will come again next year.
