About this property

E Ranch is a modern, creek side, Scandinavian barnhouse.

E Ranch is located 10 miles from Highlands on the Atlanta side, 10 miles from Clayton, 2 miles from Dillard, 1 mile from Sky Valley and only 2 hours from Atlanta...a great home base for all the area has to offer. It’s balconies overlook a soothing and tranquil mountain brook allowing you to relax with the sounds of nature. Walk, run, or play in your own private pasture or just relax and watch the clouds roll by. E Ranch has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an open living area, and a private outdoor area with shower and hot tub. E Ranch is a structure blending modern and rustic elements. The property is easily accessible from a short, well graded gravel driveway without the treacherous, car punishing dirt roads you may encounter at many mountain cabins. It is located within 3 miles of stores, restaurants and civilization yet, it feels worlds away from everything. You hear nothing but the stream and sounds of nature.

The property is located in close proximity to waterfalls, hiking, shopping, scenic drives, fine restaurants, wineries and distilleries, state parks, rafting, zip lining, fishing, and farm to table markets.

***We are dog friendly but there is a $150 pet fee*** Dog owners look for our PDF on dog friendly restaurants, wineries, and other dog activities.

Anniversary trip with just me and the wife. House was relatively easy to find, well apportioned, and offered a lot of great extras in amenities and entertainment. Everything was in great working order. Easy to get to Highlands, Clayton, and Franklin. We even shot over to our favorite winery in Young Harris then back down to Helen for food one afternoon. Overall very relaxing stay. That fireplace in the living room is no joke - it heats the whole house quickly
