About the host
Hosted by Ron & Lynn Smith
We built Fernwood on this beautiful Mountain 16 years ago----moving from Atlanta----and we love it. We're Grandparents, Foodies, lovers of Music, especially country and oldies, and we're big Sports Fans-----especially Braves and Falcons, UGA and Gamecocks. Travel---Love Hilton Head and Seaside on the Gulf. Traveled to Cozumel for snorkeling and Taos for skiing. Love cooking and entertaining and this is definitely a perfect home for that. Our family loves competing in everything from Board Games, Horseshoes, Darts, Fishing, Hiking and Cooking and Fernwood Lends itself to that fun perfectly.
Why they chose this property
We traveled all over North Georgia looking for a place with both short and long range views. We found that site atop Fort Mountain which also had Carter's lake approximately 10 miles away and many small towns with excellent restaurants and shops. The area also has history dating back to at least the 11th century and the Geological history is unique to the rest of the Blue Ridge mountains. Being just 2 1/2 miles from the Ft Mountain State Park has been wonderful with all the activities they have with Hiking, Boating, Fishing. Swimming, Paddle Boarding and Camping. Our Grandsons have grown up there. We also love being right off Scenic Highway 52, especially when there is Ice and Snow on the Mountain. The GDOT takes good care of the Highway and we are among the few who can get out of the Subdivision and get to the Grocery Store. Highway noise is not a problem at all since we built our home with thick 2x6 framing and double paned windows.
What makes this property unique
Sitting high on top of Ft Mountain allows so many positives. The Views are wonderful, as we have mentioned already, but we built Fernwood to enjoy them inside and outside. On a clear night, we can see the lights of the cities 15 and 30 miles away from the two upstairs bedrooms. At Christmas we generally have a light snow on property. Home is decorated for each season and holiday. View of the mountain vistas from the front porch rockers with a cup of coffee is awe inspiring.
