Wildcat Creek Mountain Retreat

Summary:

3 BDR/2BA Creekside Cabin w/game room, screened porch & dog OK!



The Space:

Your Perfect North Georgia Mountain Escape

Escape to the peace and beauty of North Georgia at this inviting Clarkesville cabin, where Wildcat Creek, wooded surroundings, and outdoor adventure are right outside your door. Set on 2.5 private, wooded acres with the Chattahoochee National Forest bordering the property, this spacious retreat is the perfect place to slow down, reconnect, and make memories with family and friends.



Start your morning listening to the soothing sounds of Wildcat Creek, then settle into the screened porch with a cup of coffee or a cold glass of lemonade. Spend the afternoon exploring the property, relaxing by the creek, or heading out to discover the waterfalls, trails, fishing, and mountain scenery that make this area so special.



With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and room for up to 8 guests, there's plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. After a day of adventure, fire up the grill on the lower deck and enjoy dinner surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. Or gather in the well-equipped full kitchen, featuring a gas stove, and enjoy a comfortable meal indoors.



When the evening cools down, cozy up around the wood-burning fireplace or head downstairs for some friendly competition in the game room, complete with air hockey and darts. Free WiFi, cable TV, and a DVD player provide plenty of options for relaxing downtime. And yes, your four-legged family members are welcome too!



Whether you're planning a family getaway, a fishing trip, an outdoor adventure, or simply a peaceful escape from everyday life, this dog-friendly Clarkesville cabin puts you close to it all while giving you a quiet place to come home to.



What's Nearby

Waterfalls & West Wildcat Road: Follow West Wildcat Road and you'll discover numerous waterfalls and scenic spots to explore throughout the surrounding mountains.

Loved our stay- very convenient to marina. One small glitch: GPS takes you past the property to a road closed sign- property is before on left.

Nice home. Very quiet and secluded area.

This is a very comfortable and quiet home to stay in. It is at the end of a fairly long unpaved road so your car will need a wash after your stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 June 2023
We are sorry to see you had problems with bugs during your stay. Being in the woods and close to the river does attract the bugs, especially if outdoor lights are left on. The cabin is thoroughly cleaned regularly, and there is a note on the trash can advising guests to leave the trash for housekeeping to take care of. Thank you!

Perfect for nature lovers

We loved hiking the surrounding area and playing in the creek behind the cabin! The screened patio was perfect for still enjoying the fresh air while it was raining. We are already planning to visit again!
