Situated between Cleveland and Blairsville at Neels Gap, the hiking is more than anyone can do in a month, just within a 10 min drive of the cabin. Cyclists frequent Hwy 129 that crosses over the pass between the 2 towns as an ideal place for a challenge and training, not to mention the beautiful vistas. Waterfalls are not in short supply on either side of the Blood Mountain Wilderness but empty into different watersheds. If you are looking for a bit more relaxing activities and culinary exploration, then try one of dozens of wineries in the burgeoning central N. Georgia wine region. All vineyards are within 20 minutes of the home. It is well situated and has permanently positioned itself to close the grape gap between it and the wine country of northern Virginia. Just over the range and a half hour highway drive away is the always busy, touristy alpine town of Helen, home of one of the best Octoberfest gatherings in the SE. A haven for hikers, bikers and outdoor enthusiasts, there is something for everyone, especially families. Unicoi State Park is just outside of town. Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa is a favorite in the area and offers spa treatments, great golf with fantastic views throughout the course and the best Sunday brunch and libations. HOLIDAY rates vary. Discounts available for rentals of 7 nights or more.
