About the host
Hosted by CHELSEY DELGADO
As a family who sent their kids to YMCA Camp High Harbour on Lake Burton for many years, Clayton, GA became a summer staple where we would visit. Many years later, we decided to return to the lake for a nostalgic trip down memory lane and while enjoying a fabulous Sunday Brunch at "The Red Barn at Tiger Mountain Vineyards" we stumbled upon a newly listed vineyard for sale. Within a few months time, my family acquired "The Vineyards at Persimmon Creek" and re-named it "Victory Ranch" and "The Cottages at Victory Ranch." Unfortunately, the vines had died due to a lack of care and some harsh winters, and with it, the vineyard, tasting room and bottling center were no longer. However, the legacy remained.. My family and dear friends of ours have enjoyed "The Cottages at Victory Ranch" for many years. It has been a tranquil place for healing, relaxation and contemplative silence. Whether its listening to the low hum of the creek or watching butterflies dance in the garden, this land has made its home in our hearts and it is our joy to share it with you. We pray that you know you are so WELCOMED here! May you enjoy all that "The Cottages at Victory Ranch" have to offer.
Why they chose this property
This property was previously owned by a family who ran "Persimmon Creek Vineyards" which was a fully operating vineyard, tasting room and bottling facility, along with offering a "Bed & Breakfast" Sonoma-style experience with three (3) custom curated individual, private cottages for guests to stay in while experiencing the "day to day" of a working vineyard. They are named The "Hope, Joy and Grace" Houses. "The Joy House" can be found to the immediate right when you pull up to the drive, and is settled amongst a rotunda with the two other cottages ( The Hope House VRBO# 1642191) surrounding an English garden and trellis that provides a beautiful seating area for four (4) and an outdoor stone grill for the chef looking to grill under the stars. Should you decide to travel with family and friends, we can accommodate a total of eight (8) guests total between our two cottages available. "The Joy House" and "The Hope House" are walking distance from each other.
What makes this property unique
Privacy, beauty and seclusion.
