Chatsworth, Georgia
Enjoy Rustic Elegance in this 3 separate Bedroom, 2 Bath Home on Top of Ft Mountain--just off Scenic Hwy 52 (easy access) from Ellijay or Chatsworth GA. Only 1 1/2 short Hours from Atlanta, Fernwood, is a house of windows that adjoins the Cohutta Wilderness with views from every room. Steeped in History and wildlife, you can enjoy the spectacular views from the covered decks, sit around the stacked firepit, have a fun game of Horseshoes, Corn Hole and Darts or relax and unwind in the private hot tub as the sun goes down on the Mountain. Fernwood lends itself well to active Families, Hikers and Bikers and Groups who love competition, but is also ideal for those who are just looking for a quiet place for Rest and Relaxation with Spectacular Views. Ft Mountain State Park is only 2 short miles away and boasts beautiful hiking trails, paddle boarding, canoeing, Miniature Golf and swimming in the Lake, plus an Ancient Rock Wall built by the first inhabitants sometime between 500 and 1500 C.E. A Complimentary Gate and Parking Pass to the Park is offered during your stay, to be returned when you leave.
Besides being only 2 miles from the State Park, Fernwood is also about 13 miles from Carters Lake which boasts over 3,200 acres of surface water where Boats of all types can be rented by the Hour or Day. Fishing for Striper Bass is one of the favorite pastimes at Carter's Lake and the dam.
Fernwood is also close to the Wine Vineyards and Apple Houses around Ellijay. Many of the wineries offer food and wine pairings and live Music. Then in October, the Apple Houses show off their wonderful Mountain Apples and the Apple Festival goes on at the Fairgrounds for two weekends in a row. From Fernwood you're only 20 minutes away from Ellijay or Chatsworth down the paved Scenic Hwy to Groceries, Restaurants and Shops without encountering long and sometimes treacherous gravel roads. The Cohutta Wilderness adjoins our property with endless trails for hiking, biking or exploring the National Wildlife Area. It is minutes to waterfalls, overlooks, the Pinhoti trail and the highest elevation lake in Georgia, Lake Conasauga.
Owners can be available to answer any questions you may have about the home or assist you with any problems that arise with the water system, generator, television, etc. They have a separate Owners Suite on the property with a private entrance in the basement. There is only one door that leads directly from the Apartment to the stairwell inside the house. It has a blind deadbolt so it can be locked and unlocked only from the renter’s side. The only other access door is from the Garage to the mudroom door which has standard key deadbolts and a chain the renters can apply. The owner's suite is totally separate and isolated from every other part of the house.

My husband and friends stayed for a quiet, restful New Years! The home is lovely, with a hot tub, a fire pit and a wonderful deck to observe the birds and nature. Ron and Lynn were very helpful to my friend who was determined to smoke a chicken (for the first time) on the Big Green Egg. The short distance to Fort Mountain State Park were we hiked several different trails made our stay even more lovely.
Located near some nice hiking trails.
Great Fall getaway with my partner, daughter & her hubby. Gorgeous mountain views from the porch, every room, the hot tub & the blazing fire pit each night! Beautiful home, comfortable beds, nearby hiking & bike trails. Gracious hosts - we will be back to make more precious memories!
What an amazing weekend in an absolutely beautiful home. Pictures do not do this place justice. From the minute you exit your vehicle, you feel like you are home. You will never find a rental as homey, clean or well stocked as this one! Ron and Lynn are definitely super hosts! The breakfast treats and juices they left for us were yummy. They are on the property so if you happened to need anything, you can get them immediately. The hot tub was dreamy. We LOVED the fireplace. Mints by the bed are such a thoughtful touch. I truly can’t say enough good things about this property or the owners. Will definitely visit again!
The property was very clean and offered all amenities you could want or need. The owners were very gracious to us thru out our stay . The scenery was beautiful and the wild life there was great also.
House was wonderful, fully stocked, and close to Fort Mountain State Park. My kids loved the pastries and orange juice owners left for us. Would highly recommend staying here!
We wanted a get away to celebrate my grandbabies birthdays and we were so extremely happy with our stay. The owners are so sweet and precious and they make sure to go above and beyond to make you feel at home. The only negative experience was when it was time to leave.
Everything was smooth from start to finish. The owner met us shortly after arrival and made us feel completely at home. The location is perfect for hikers, sightseers, family fun or just relaxing in the mountain air.
