• Zenith Overlook's entire exterior of the property is treated with scheduled pest management. With that being said, the property is in the woods of a large nature reserve, so an occasional bug sighting comes with the territory.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Jackson

Host profile image

Hi, I'm Nick! I'm a pharmacist from the midwest but now reside in Sunny Miami Florida. My wife, Niki, is a Travel agent so traveling and exploring the world is a part of our everyday lifestyle. As well as providing the best life possible for our 2 golden retrievers, Ruby and Ellie. We love talking about Travel and spreading the joy it has given us throughout our life!

Why they chose this property

Living in Miami we love the weather but we often miss the different season. We stumbled across Ellijay on a road trip and fell in love with it. It has perks of a big city with plenty to see and do, but benefits of small town, quiet and peaceful. We love coming up for the fall to see the beautiful leaves and enjoy harvest season with the best apples we have ever had. We loved our time here so much we bought a place but can't stay here all the time so want to share it with as many people as possible and spread the joy of travel!!

What makes this property unique

Hillside Haven has many unique benefits. First of all it is a very large home with plenty of room for multiple families to share. Huge common area to cook diner and unwind with the family. Sitting on the front porch for sunrise and back porch for sunset through the forest is our favorite times of the day. It is so relaxing to enjoy some coffee or a glass of wine in nature. Also, the brand new converted game room downstairs with plenty of activities and the hot tub to unwind after a long day. Another huge perk is the location! Its located to the closest gates to all the attractions of the area (wineries, orchards, shopping, restaurants, you name it!). We are also uniquely situation that every road leading to our home is paved. So no need for any 4 wheel drive or heavy machinery :). This house has a little bit of everything and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
