Almost Heaven on Top of the Mountain

Beautiful views on perfect viewing porches! Modern home with room to spare. Well worth the trip up the mountain. Four wheel drive preferred for the very top climb on gravel. Saw deer and turkey along the way. Great location convenient to hiking and boating. Hiawasee is a sweet, welcoming town with great 4th of July fairgrounds entertainment.

Great View

This is a nice 3 BR 2 1/2 Bath home with great mountain views from the front porch, rear deck and all windows. Close to Hiawassee and only a short drive from a main road. Ample parking for several vehicles if needed. Well equipped with kitchen utensils and 2 refrigerators. Nice washer and dryer. Keypad entry and responsive host. We would definitely stay here again.

Almost Heaven, Indeed!

We certainly enjoyed our stay at this property. The views are incredible. When we were there we planted ourselves in the chairs on the deck. For us the weather was perfect. It is just amazing that each sunrise/sunset was so different. The surrounding area is also very lovely. We were driving a rented mini van; chrysler pacifica, and climbed the driveway just fine. You do have to maneuver around some ruts and put the vehicle in low when you reach the gravel part. I certainly hope to return some day.
