Come relax in a comfortable home in a small GA town that still believes in quaint stores, friendly service & good food. Dogs are welcome for an additional pet fee. (details below).
Toccoa hosts free country/jazz/rock bands downtown every Saturday night during certain summer months. Winter may drop a couple inches of snow and summer brings plenty of sunshine. We are 30 miles from Helen which is a stunning German themed town. Keep driving and you will be deep in the mountains within minutes. Toccoa falls is 5 mins away, Tallulah gorge 17 miles and within 30 miles in almost any direction, you are in the mountains. Bikers are welcome to bring their bikes and enjoy the curvy mountain rides!
