THE EXPERIENCE: Forest Bathing & Adventure
As avid kayakers and mountain bikers we envisioned this property as a basecamp for both deep relaxation and epic adventure.

Relax:
Spend a quiet afternoon reading, napping, or just listening to the wind in the trees and birdsong from the sleeping porch. Enjoy the fire pit at the top of the meadow to watch the sunset over Glassy Mountain.

Explore:
10 minutes to White Twister & Stonewall Creek mountain bike trails. 20-30 minutes to world-class whitewater rafting on the Chattooga River, boating on Lake Burton/Lake Rabun, tons of hiking,and elite fly-fishing. Pick wild blackberries and blueberries in the meadow or cross the log bridge over the clearwater creek and forage for chanterelles.

Dine:
15 minutes to historic downtown Clayton for fine dining at Fortify, Stekoa Creek, Rabun Social or live music and beers at Universal Joint.

Guest Notes & Connectivity
Size: The cabin is a cozy 700 sq. ft. While it accommodates 4, it is most comfortable for those who enjoy spending time in our many outdoor spaces: whether on the front porch, the sleeping porch, or in the meadow.

Connectivity: We offer fast WIFI that reaches most of the property, making this an ideal Work-from-Nature retreat.

The Woods: You are in the heart of the forest. You will hear crickets, rain on the tin roof, the occasional coyote, and see deer, rabbits, and sometimes foxes . It is remarkably quiet and very dark at night—the stars sparkling like diamonds.
