About this property

Magnificent Views from an Incredible Lodge!

** JEWEL OF THE WOODS Under New Ownership! **

Stay close to Clayton, Dillard, Mountain City, Rabun Gap and Highlands in this magnificent lodge with five bedrooms (four suites), and 4.5 bathrooms. This property is the right place to entertain up to 12 people, a family, or a grand destination for a couple looking for some R&R! You are close to hiking, rafting, canoeing, fishing and hunting, or just enjoying the mountains.

Need inspiration to work? Look no further! Magnificent unobstructed mountain views with your own blueberry field in the back, this property has close to seven acres of land surrounding it. A working fireplace completes the ambience.

Grill or smoke your favorite meats on the Green Egg with unforgettable views on a covered patio over 900 square feet in size.

Chef's kitchen with a gas stove and three ovens provide plenty of space to cook for a large crowd. A washer and dryer, and two hot water tanks (so you have PLENTY of hot water) will make this luxurious retreat feel like your home away from home. The kitchen is well-equipped with cookware and dining ware and has a full range of options for making coffee, along with an Insta-Pot and waffle iron.

You are in a for a treat with a Tempurpedic mattress in the main bedroom suite, complete with a view of the mountains.

Internet access allows for streaming videos, and for smooth Zoom calls.

Pets allowed with non-refundable $200 fee per animal.

**IMPORTANT** The road leading to the property is a private, winding and narrow gravel road with low tree cover in many places. It is not suited for low or large RVs, or certain sports cars. I have driven several cars to the property as I fly to Atlanta and rent a car to get to the property. The lowest car I have driven was a Kia Rio without issue. However, certain guests have reported challenges driving a low car. Remember - these are rugged, mountainous and wooded areas!

You may encounter wildlife on the property or on the roads. Please drive carefully and safely on all roads leading to Jewel of the Woods.

Loud music and excessive noise is strictly forbidden.

This five-bedroom house provides accommodations with laundry, kitchen, and air conditioning for your convenience. It features many amenities for guests who want to stay for a few days, a weekend or probably a longer vacation with family, friends or group. The house is near many of north Georgia's iconic mountain locations, while also convenient to airports in Atlanta, Asheville, NC and Greenville, SC.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Jewel of the Woods!

Great stay in, mountain hideaway!
We love this property. It is our second year back and we are already planning for a 3rd! Plenty of space for everyone, more amenities and improvements since our stay last year. Will keep coming back as long as we are able!

Truly the Jewel of the Woods
An absolute wonderful house and property for my family! We had three sets of adults and 6 children ranging from infant to seven years old. All of us enjoyed the house immensely. While the views from the back porch rivaled, if not exceeded other mountain homes we’ve visited, the unique property allowed our children to play outside safely. The home was stocked with the necessities plus more, including the kitchen. When we weren’t cooking on the Green Egg or sitting by a warm fire, we spent time in Highlands NC which was less than 20 minutes away. Overall this house was perfect and would highly recommend!!!

Beautiful view
A beautiful house with a beautiful view too! Very well stocked kitchen and lots of games to play too! The “no airbnb or vrbo” signs posted along the way are a little unsettling and caused a delay in our family arrival, but we understand the owner does not control that. Located about 40 minutes from the nearest grocery store, but a great place to relax and unwind! Overall, a great house!

Close to Highlands!
The house is incredibly equipped with everything you need. The grounds and views are beautiful. We enjoyed to close proximity to Highlands and Cashiers, just a short drive to the NC border.

Peaceful retreat
Coming from Richmomd, VA, the drive over was breathtaking. Our family who tagged along were not used to mountain roads and needed anti-nauseous meds for the travel to town and back. Our gps directions to get to the property were incorrect and got turned around on Three forks trail. There were signs from neighbors saying " not welcome". A kind neighbor pointed us in the right direction and were delighted with the amazing accomodations and views. We made sure to experience all that the house provided and the nature around us. This house is quite amazing; giving you a choice to unplug and the wifi to keep you connected (or give kids quiet movie time while the adults relax on the balcony). Our family is definitely going to visit again.

Great get together house in secluded area.
The house is warm and friendly with lots of space. Plenty of cooking utensils and a good sized kitchen. Large family style farm table for serving meals. Spectacular view of the mountains off of the rear decks. We had 8 adults in our party and the spacious kitchen, living room, dining area and outdoor spaces had ample room for all. The only downside to our stay was when the well water system failed and we had to leave a day early. The owner was very apologetic and is going to refund one days stay. We highly recommend this mountain house and we would stay there again.

Refuge
Spacious and comfortable home nestled in the North GA mountains just 7 miles from Highlands, NC. Our family of 14 have stayed in homes in TN, NC and GA. This was rated as one of the bed. Spacious deck for those evening family moments. Owner was very responsive and hospitable. Neighbors anti-rental vacationers are to be ignored. Great place with blueberry bushes!

Beautiful stay in the mountains. Renata answered all of my questions. Due to my Verizon phone I could not make wifi calls. Others in the party with a different carrier had no issue. It was a great stay. Not too far from the Highlands where the wedding was held! I can’t wait to visit again!!
