About this property

Private mountain cabin surrounded by Nat'l Forest! Visit wineries, hike the AT!

"Lee's Mountain House"
Unplug. Unwind. Reset. Your favorite GA mountain experiences are here, so get out and hike, bike, ride, visit wineries, and see the sights.
Or... slow down, gather 'round the huge farmhouse table, relax by the real wood fireplace and big screen TV, have a soak in the claw foot tub, or watch for wildlife from any of 4 decks.
Cook a meal in the fully stocked kitchen, grill steaks on the deck, or head out to visit award-winning restaurants in nearby Helen and Dahlonega.
The mountain view is seasonal but the peaceful vibes are year-round!

We had such a great time at this cabin! Kelli was such a great hostess and there were so many extra touches provided. The fireplace with provided wood, fresh flowers, waters, just to name a few. There were games and many nice places to sit and hang out, although we really enjoyed the living room with the large couch and tv. We also made use of the kitchen for a few meals. It’s well equipped for making your chili or whatever you desire. My friends and I loved our stay and are already talking about returning.

Charming cabin in the woods

This cabin is the real deal: older but updated, furnished with attention to detail, a master to die for, suffused with sunlight overlooking the valley. Hosts are nearby and responsive. We loved our week spent there.

Best Christmas Vacation

All the little touches, from fresh flowers to a Hot chocolate goodie basket made our stay cozy and magical. They even helped us get firewood delivered so we could have a fire every day of our trip. It was a wonderful home away from home and we are already planning our next stay.

Amazing Time!

We absolutely loved our stay! We loved the cabin and it’s location. It’s was only a short drive to Helen or Dahlonega and all the wineries. The cabin is very private and the view for the master bedroom is amazing. Our host was amazing! Kelli had firewood ready, wine in the refrigerator and fresh flowers throughout the house. We will 100% stay again!

Love Love Love this house!

Five girlfriends & I stayed for an extended weekend. The house is absolutely amazing! We felt at home instantly! The host, Kelli, is the sweetest & responds very quickly to questions. She even left us a bottle of wine. The house is really close to local vineyards & about 30-ish minutes from Helen. If we're ever in the area again, we'd definitely stay there again!

Phenomenal Cabin in the Heart of North Georgia Wine Country

This cabin was spectacular! We were two families moving our sons to college in nearby Dahlonega. The cabin was finely appointed and the owners were thoughtful in the details. It backs up to a National Forest and thus was completely private. The bedding was superior and very comfortable. The outdoor spaces invite time spent in nature. We will be returning when we go to visit our son!

I enjoyed my board game bachelor weekend at this cabin. The hosts made us feel like potted plants. Everything was squared away, and the check in/out procedures were more straightforward than I expected.

About the host

Hosted by Kelli

Host profile image
Hello! We are Kelli and Scott and we're so excited to be your hosts at Lee's Mountain House! We know you will have a wonderful stay in the North Georgia Mountains. Scott calls Mississippi home, and I am originally from Southwest Florida, but we have both lived in Georgia since the 90’s and love it! We are travel enthusiasts ourselves, and appreciate the need to get away - whether across the country or just nearby for a change of scenery. So whether you are just exploring our beautiful area for the first time, or you’re practically a local, we hope you’ll think of Lee’s Mountain House as your “home away from home!”

Why they chose this property

Beautiful, secluded spot, surrounded on three sides by Chattahoochee National Forest. We have occasional visits from black bear, deer, squirrels, raccoons... all the woodland wildlife! WINE a little... Lee's Mountain House is surrounded by 30+ wineries and tasting rooms.. Most are within a pleasant 30-40 minute drive from the cabin. https://gamountainsguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Georgia-Wine-Highway-Map-2023.pdf 77 MILES. 715 CURVES. ENDLESS VIEWS. Like the famed "Tail of The Dragon," bikers in these parts thrill to ride "The Dragons Eyes!" A motorcycle tourist road destination, this ride encircles two major mountains, and travels through three gaps that outline the Dragon's Eyes. Hairpin curves and sweeping vistas never disappoint, and Lee's Mountain House is right on the route! https://www.exploregeorgia.org/ things-to-do/blog/gaze-through the-eyes-of-a-dragon-on-this north-georgia-road-trip. BASE CAMP for your Day Hikes! Lee's Mountain House sits about 5 miles from Neel Gap and Mountain Crossings, where the Appalachian Trail crosses Highway 19/129. In addition, hundreds of other trails, waterfalls, and blue mountain ridges await discovery nearby! https://www.atlantatrails.com/georgia-appalachian-trail/

What makes this property unique

Who is Lee? Lee’s Mountain House was originally built by my daddy, Lee Schutt. It began as an A-frame cabin where I spent my summers growing up in the 70s and 80s, and yes - Kelli Lane was named for me! Through the years, my parents added several additions to make it their retirement home. After losing Daddy in 2020, Scott and I decided to keep the place and share it with others as a short-term rental. We’ve refreshed and redone a lot, but Lee’s touches remain at the heart of it - in the original A-frame boards and beams that have become the master bedroom, in the stained glass panels he crafted, and even in his model trains that still encircle the living room. Lee loved this very special place, and we know you will feel at home here too!
