When the sun rises you will often be treated to a giant lake of fog just below fed by Lake Nottely. At an elevation of 2,200 feet above sea level, we have a panoramic view of the tallest mountains in Georgia including Brasstown Bald and Blood Mountain.
The main floor includes a guest room with king-sized bed, full bathroom with bidet, laundry closet, open floor plan with fully-equipped kitchen, dining room, and living room with gas log fireplace. The living room has a large power reclining sofa and loveseat, 65" 4K OLED HDR Smart TV, and Blu-ray player. Internet is 50mbps+.

The top floor features a private primary suite with king-sized bed and large bathroom with bidet and separate tub and shower.
The basement features 100-year-old reclaimed wood for an accent wall and two barn doors. The bathroom features a fully tiled walk-in shower. Bunk beds are in their own semi-private space. The private bedroom on this floor has a queen-sized bed. There is a gathering space with gas log fireplace, 65" 4K Smart TV, Blu-ray Player, Xbox/PS4, and surround-sound system for a great movie or sports watching experience. You can also step out onto the lower level wrap-around deck and enjoy the views.
Our cabin is situated on a mountain ridge. Access is easy for any typical vehicle except in very rare extreme winter weather. You will be far enough away from town to not hear any traffic but within reasonable driving distance of three towns with grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, and other necessities. A 20-minute drive will take you to Blue Ridge, Blairsville, or Murphy, NC.
Easy access to fishing and boating on Nottely Lake (15 minutes) or Lake Blue Ridge (20 minutes). Cherokee Nation Casino in Murphy, North Carolina is less than 30 minutes away. Plenty of hiking in the Chattahoochee National Forest, Appalachian Trail, and much more. AllTrails.com is a great resource.

Great property, owners are extremely communicative and keep the place very clean. Highly recommend!
10.0 / 10.0
We had a wonderful weekend at this house even though it was cloudy and we didn't get to see the sky - which is why we booked the place. But we will be back when the weather is better. I can only imagine what they sky will be like from the top of that mountain.
I think the house was the cleanest rental I've ever seen. It is very nicely furnished and is very comfortable.
We had a quick mix up on the door code and had to contact the owners. We got an immediate response.
The house and location are both incredible. Since it was cloudy and we couldn't see the night sky, we spent all of the daylight hours sitting on the deck watching clouds pass through the valley and over distant mountains.
When the cool wind and threat of rain chased us off the exposed deck, we went to the covered deck and built a fire.
Thanks, Chuck and Christine! We will definitely book again if we can find clear weather!

This was an amazing cabin to be able to escape and enjoy time with friends to ring in the new year!!! It has plenty of room for everyone and was extremely clean! The property is secluded enough but close to plenty of places. We took a day trip to Blue Ridge and then the next day took a trip to Murphy to the casino!! We are already looking to stay again!!!

We had a fabulous time at this cabin. The Mountain View was just gorgeous. The cabin was well stocked and there was plenty of room with three floors of bedrooms. We totally enjoyed the outdoor fireplace. It was a great place to gather and talk or read a book in front of a nice warm fire. We actually ran out of firewood but Chuck managed to get that restocked for us. The only issue we encountered was getting the access code for entry. We didn’t have it on the day we were supposed to check in and we had to contact Chuck to get it. I like to have the code a little more in advance just in case the cell service is spotty on the trip there and we have trouble communicating. But overall we had a great stay.

Clean, cozy, and accommodating
Our family of 6, ages range 1-11, were very comfortable in this cozy cabin. The hosts were very communicative and accommodating. Cabin had everything we needed, but nothing cluttered which was nice for having small kids around. Kitchen was well stocked, but not much space for pantry items, so keep in mind if staying awhile and eating in. Lots of cozy blankets, easy to follow instructions for fireplaces and TVs. (We should have brought a baby gate due to staircases.) They had a great collection of games, cards, movies for all ages. Streaming movies buffered a lot, so the dvds came in handy. There are two houses on either side, but we never saw or heard anyone else on the mountain. Cabin is about a 30 minute drive to downtown blue ridge. We recommend this cabin!

THIS IS THE PLACE TO STAY.....
The property was better than advertised. The beds are 5 star. Every conceivable kitchen item was provided. It was 10 degrees while we were visiting: the home keep us warm like a big thermal blanket. The outside fireplace and grill are well maintained along with extra bottles of propane. This is the place to stay!

Perfect weekend in the Mountains
The Overlook is perfect - gorgeous views, and amazing fireplace on the porch. The weather wasn’t cooperating on day 2 of our stay so we spent most of our time inside, where this cozy cabin had everything we needed. We will be back again!!!

Breathtaking
This cozy but spacious cabin is situated on a quiet road with views that are breathtaking from your first glimpse and continue to be for the entire stay. Whether your eating indoors or enjoying the outdoor under-cover fireplace, there is plenty of room for everyone! The cabin has everything you could want. We did some sightseeing in the area, but just having quiet family time at the cabin was best! We can’t wait to go back!

Perfect
Spent 4 nights at The Overlook and the whole family enjoyed our time in the home. Made the mistake of following Google’s directions to get to the home that took us on a road that was nearly too much for the family sedan to cross. Directions from the owners is a very easy route for any car to manage. The one gravel section is better maintained than our alley in Chicago suburbs. It was hard to leave at the end of the week.
4.0 / 10.0
Property was very nice. 1) Directions from Murphy NC were in error and need updating. The directions list Jonica Gap Road as being a right turn by boat storage off of GA Highway 325. This is incorrect and caused us to get a little lost initially finding the property. The correct directions are to turn right off of GA 325 onto Loving Rd and then right at Boat Storage onto Jonica Gap Road. 2) The access key code was supposed to be sent via internet 1 week out. We didn't receive it until 3 days out and then only by calling the owner directly. 3) The cabin experienced 2 limited duration power outages during our stay. Not the owners fault. The owner was very helpful in contacting the local power and helping us with restoration and followup. In general, when we had issues with items 2 and 3 the owner was very responsive once contacted.4) Appliances--the dishwasher upper spray arm came off the dishwasher during our stay. We think we correctly reattached and repaired it. (it looks like a plastic retainer cap was incorrectly installed and came loose. We found the cap, reinstalled the arm. To lock it in place, the cap appears to require a 1/4 turn twist after installation. The previous tenants probably didn't install correctly or report this?) The blender appears to be on its last legs. We had a hard time getting it to work correctly. These last two items ARE NOT complaints, they are merely a note to the owner to inform him of status.View was fantastic, all guests loved the stay at this place and the view and space and would happily stay at this property again.

Gorgeous Mountaintop Cabin with all the amenities!
What a beautiful cabin! The views are breathtaking as is the drive up. The owners have thought of everything! All you need is your toothbrush and food. Great kitchen for cooking your meals and the basement area was a big hit with the kids. Very scenic area with a few cabins on the same road, but otherwise very quiet. Communication with the owners was very easy and very quick. Great rental- highly recommend!

Great View!
We enjoyed a five night family trip with kids ranging from young adults, teens, elementary age and an infant. The property was exactly as described with a well stocked cabin. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything we needed for meals, including an electric griddle for big breakfasts. Plenty of towels and had started packs of bathroom necessities. The drive to the top is a steep narrow road, but we made it without a problem in a 12 passenger van (but we are also used to mountain driving...so if you are new to it...just know you will get used to it) and the reward of the view is worth the drive. Blue Ridge is near, but we had recently been there...so this trip we spent most of our time venturing to Helen, Long Creek Falls, and Brasstown Bald. Was a treat to have some snow still on the ground the day we arrived, but it melted away the next day...we did find a good snow area at the top of Brasstown Bald...lots of fun for these Florida kids. The accurate description of the property, a video provided of "how to get there," and excellent communication from the property owner are all 5 star worthy.

Perfect getaway
Yes, that view really is awesome! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home.
The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals (but bring your own spices, sugar, coffee, oil, etc.), bathrooms were clean, the bed in master bedroom was very comfortable, there was plenty propane for grill and a stack of wood for outdoor fireplace.
As dumb luck would have it, we were directly in the path of the remnants of hurricane Zeta. We were aware of that possibility when we left home so we brought extra supplies, and Chuck (the owner) told us where flashlights and batteries were located. It was quite a gusty night that left us without power for almost 3 hours the next morning and again for 2 hours the following morning. Chuck checked in on us early and stayed in touch via texts sending us info about the power outage. While outside, we spoke with neighbors from down the road who offered to store some of our cold food in case the power was out for a long time. Chainsaws could be heard as soon as it got light (there were several large trees that had apparently fallen and blocked the road). We were impressed by the quick response from everyone! And thanks to the well-supplied cabin, we were able to heat the water kettle on the side burner of the grill and use the French press to make fresh coffee. The gas fireplace took the chill out of the air. All was good!
We took a few short excursions every day (both the paved and dirt roads are well maintained) but spent most of our time just enjoying the deck, fresh air and beautiful view.
The home is great, and the owners are very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with. We definitely recommend staying here and hope to come back some day.
Note: The front door has a timed/auto-lock so make sure you remember the code when you go outside because the door will lock itself after a few minutes.

Beautiful house.. gorgeous views!!!
We had a wonderful time. Property and house were amazing. Homeowner is super nice. The neighbors were lovely and even sought out extra toilet paper for us, as we couldn't find any in the midst of all that's been happening lately. The bathrooms were rather dirty, however... mainly the showers. And the dishwasher didn't work. Overall, though, we loved it there. Had many exciting abventures and made some great memories!.
