Family and pet friendly cabin nestled in the shadow of Brasstown Bald
No matter when you arrive, the view will consume you.
This cabin is located between the Brasstown Bald ridge and GA75 in a quaint and quiet little neighborhood in Hiawassee. It faces west, with tremendous views up to Brasstown Bald and the setting sun over the ridge every evening. Wake up on a cloudy March morning, and the chill of the air will complement the cloud-drenched mountaintops and fog from your front porch.
The cabin was clean and well stocked. We used the bathroom and bedroom on the main floor, right off the kitchen. Our kid used the upstairs loft. It was warm in the loft, but there's a nice digital window air conditioner to keep temps down in the summer. We closed the main floor French door curtains to cut down on heating during the day.
The downstairs has a gorgeous (albeit a little steep) stone staircase that leads to the largest bedroom, plus the pool table room and basement porch with nearly similar views to the mountains. If you have pets or folks who don't do well on steep stairs, just mind your step. The downstairs is underground in the hillside, so it's MUCH cooler and would be great in summer.
Amenities include YouTubeTV for every TV in the house AND 30Mbps up/down Internet. Next time we go, we will try and use the wood stove on the main floor and/or the gorgeous outdoor fire pit. It was too warm this trip.
Next time, though. We're definitely coming back!
