About the host
Hosted by Derrick Morris
Since visiting Blue Ridge in 2012, we were quickly drawn to the kind people and natural beauty of this quiet little town. We now live just south of Blue Ridge, and couldn't be happier with our decision. We have a strong appreciation for wildlife, nature, the environment, good food and friendly people.
Why they chose this property
The multiple outdoor entertaining areas, panoramic views, and privacy found at View Finder allow us to enjoy the best that the North Georgia Mountains have to offer. While it's proximity to downtown gives us the opportunity to enjoy fine dining, shopping and many outdoor adventures (kayaking, boating, swimming, fishing, list goes on and on).
What makes this property unique
Viewfinder is located on a quiet beautiful mountain on 1.6 acres. Down the hill is a small stream, surrounded by beautiful Hemlocks. Just a short walk away is the Benton MacKaye trail, a meadow overlooking a lake and the mountains, Laurel Creek with small waterfalls, and a good amount of wildlife. The many old growth Hemlocks, Oak trees and Pines made this a perfect place for us to get away.
