About this property
Colorful Autumn Adventure in the Mountains
Escape the city and step into the colorful changing leaves! Find your autumn adventure! This Scaly Mountain cabin is perfect for a couple looking for an adventurous and/or romantic weekend in the mountains! The hiking options are bountiful! You can check out the waterfalls at Glen Falls, head up to Sunset Rock to watch the sun go down, or choose from over a dozen other trail options. Most of the trailheads are within a 20 minute drive or less! If hiking isn’t your thing, this cabin is five minutes from Sky Valley Golf Course, Highland Outpost Adventure Park, numerous trout fishing spots, and about twenty minutes from Clayton GA (heading south) or Highlands NC (heading north). Both Clayon and Highlands offer plenty of drinking and dining options. Be sure to grab a burger and beer at The Ugly Dog or a biscuit at Annetes!
Inside, you’ll find a bedroom/living area that flows seamlessly into the kitchen. Thankfully, you don’t have to walk too far for your midnight snacks if that hunger from hiking hits you in the night! The bed is set up so it can be comfortably sat on as a couch during the day and transform into a comfortable sleeping spot at night.
The property features a rustic barn and some seating areas outside. There is plenty of land if you want to bring your pup! Just note that the yard is not fenced, but dogs are encouraged to roam freely and the land is large enough they probably can’t run off even if they tried. If you want to walk around, a quick stroll down the rustic farm road leads you to the neighbor’s cattle pastures.
Guests will have access to the entire cabin and property. We encourage you to walk around and enjoy! If you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out!
