About this property

PERFECT for city escapes, golf parties, art groups! QUIET!

Just two hours from Atlanta, Ga., high in the clouds of the highest city in northeast Georgia, this cottage is absolutely breath-taking in the spring - rhododendron everywhere! The cottage is just four miles from Dillard, Ga. and 10 miles from Highlands, NC.

There are two living levels (top level kitchen), two wood burning fireplaces, large veranda and wrap around porches on both levels with private entries at each level.

From each deck area you can enjoy the beautiful mountain views! The cottage has three private bedrooms, with the downstairs housing one queen bedroom and bath, twin beds in 'dormitory' style, a futon, TV, and living room area.

This home is NOT a duplex but adds a degree of privacy for other family or friends on the lower level.

Less than two miles from the cottage is a lovely waterfall, unknown to most outsiders. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy Sky Valley's public 18 hole golf course.

Guests may enjoy activities including the community pool and work out room during the summer. There is pond fishing, hikes, arts and crafts festivals, boutique shopping in Highlands, NC, hiking, snow tubing, fishing, boating at both Lake Rabun and Lake Burton.

Guests will never tire of the flea markets and festivals which occur regularly each weekend during the summer and fall.

This is a perfect escape for more than one family in their own private area or for a family wishing to have a reunion, a perfect home base for plein air artists, and for small golf groups.

Dogs are allowed. There is a fenced run behind the house.

Watch July 4th fireworks from the deck!!!

Wish we could have stayed longer

There are so many things to do in the area that we didn't do staying in the house justice. It was comfortable and met all our needs though. The fireplace was awesome!

Vacay that never was.

I had been planning this trip for months and was so excited to have all my family under one roof for Thanksgiving. I had even talk with you about all my plans for Dinner at the D Illard House. We all arrived at the cabin around 4 to 4:30. We got settled and my daughter in law was preparing dinner. I want feeling well And decided to get a bath lay down .. Durring the night I got worst extreme abdominal pain. Thursday morning they ambulance carried me too Gainesville med. I had any intestinal obstructions and was moved to Emory. Just released today 12/2... We told the kids to stay at the cabin . it was paid for and the meal at Dillard House. They told me how much they loved it bit missed us so much. You have a beautiful cabin and wish I could have enjoyed it. We will have to try again one day. I have some recovery to work on.

Why they chose this property

Has all the comforts of home.
Can hear waterfall from deck.
Can view July 4th fireworks from deck.
Taps played every night from church bell tower at 9:00 pm every night.
Close to Highlands without the traffic.
Perfect for artist groups looking for great sites to paint - waterfall, valley and mountains, cows, overlooks.
Two floors for privacy.
Huge veranda.

What makes this property unique

This property is very private despite its being in a neighborhood. Perched above the street level and surrounded by trees, this house provides a great escape. If more noise is needed, we are a short drive to Highlands, Clayton and Franklin.
