The Overlook

The Overlook cabin is a place in a storybook setting where stories are also in fact, created. By far, this property is in one of the most private settings in the North Georgia Mountains. You’ll travel along a sharply winding, steep gravel road that will rekindle imaginings from childhood fables which took place in secret woods. However, this road is easily mastered and your reward rests in the charm and beauty of The Overlook cabin.

Perched high above the Aska Adventure area, this home has panoramic mountain and distant lake views. It sits in total seclusion, yet is only 10 minutes from town and walking distance to the Benton McKaye trail.

The Overlook is full of character with a warm and welcoming front porch, side stone chimney and adorable second floor dormers. Inside, the living area features an open floor plan with gas log rock fireplace and rich leather furniture. There is a wraparound deck with plenty of seating inviting you to the outdoors. A particularly happy spot in the home is the loft that overlooks the great room on one side, and has its own deck with rocking chairs on the other. Here you can relax outside as well or have fun at the loft’s air hockey or card game table.

Back downstairs, on the terrace level, the game room is replete with a billiards table and a wet bar. A four-person hot tub and a personal sauna allow perfectly pampered treatments as if in your own private spa.

Lovely bathrooms continue the serene spa feel and are conveniently located – the lower level one is even wheelchair accessible. Three bedrooms, one on each floor, offer a king and two queen beds; all outfitted in high thread linens and plush comforters.

When it’s time to retire, crack open the beautiful bedroom windows to hear the soft distant sounds of nature from your perfectly secluded spot within it. Breathing in the cool mountain air, the Sandman begins to take over. As you recount the day’s lovely story, a smile draws sleepily across your face in gratitude for this perfectly happy ending.
