Put your feet up on the front porch of this one-of-a-kind hand-built, square-log cabin and gaze at all the national forest can offer you – wildlife, hiking trails, waterfalls, mountain biking, OHV trails, and more.

This 2 bedroom cabin with an expansive living/sleeping loft accommodates up to 8 guests. Decorated to blend the best of the old and the new, you'll find plenty of space to relax both indoors and out. Watch the sunrise with your morning coffee as you lazily swing on the enclosed porch running the full length of the house. Or dine at twilight at the other end of this spacious screened-in porch. And anyone can enjoy this lovely cabin with its handicap ramp gently sloping to the front door.

The Laurel has a king-size bed in the master bedroom located on the main floor with a queen-size bed in the upstairs bedroom. Two bunkbeds (one with a full-size lower bed) are found in the loft. Large bathrooms both upstairs and downstairs easily accommodate all our guests.

Nestled among native mountain laurels, The Laurel is .3 mile off the main road, offering a peaceful experience in a woodland setting. This cabin is located only 15 minutes from downtown Dahlonega, enabling you to enjoy everything this historic town has to offer: the Dahlonega Gold Museum, gold mining, festivals, ghost tours, a vibrant night life, arts and crafts, charming shops, a variety of restaurants, plus concerts and other cultural offerings on the campus of The University of North Georgia.

Attending a wedding at one of the nearby wedding venues? The Laurel is perfect for your wedding party or guests! Or perhaps you would like to tour the many nearby wineries or taste the wares at the local meadery.

Or enjoy the Appalachian experience. Survey the cabin's mountain views during the late fall through early spring. Then move outside to stroll through the forest along our long gravel drive. Perhaps you'd like to fish in the nearby stocked streams, hike the Chattahoochee National Forest, travel the mountain bike or ATV trails, or visit the many neighboring waterfalls. Travel on Cooper's Gap Road along the mountain ridge to Suches, GA and scan the stunning mountain views, or catch the beginning of the Appalachian Trail at Amicalola Falls.

Linens, coffee supplies, and an initial supply of paper products are provided for our guests.

We welcome you to The Laurel! Enjoy!
