About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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 stream 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 brand new 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.

The property was private and relaxing. It was also close to Frankin and Highlands, so day trips were easy. Even though we only spent a few days at the ranch, we left very relaxed. We will definitely be back.

Nice house. Obviously tastefully designed and decorated for an open, uncluttered feel. Noticed lots of ownership tlc. Rural setting with open space but still a feeling of privacy. The sound of the creek was very relaxing and very little daylight time was spent inside. Wide range of dining in the area and we enjoyed going out from diner style to fine dining. Really good six days for us.

Spring Trip

We enjoyed our stay. The only hiccup we had is the burners in the grill need to be replaced. We were not able to cook on the grill. Outside, of that hiccup, everything was great.

Sleek, Clean, and Modern Little Cabin just a jump away from Highlands.

The check in/out process was easy and reasonable. The cabin was perfect and cozy for a wintery weekend. The cabin is very clean and not cluttered. The amenities where perfect. The sound of the flowing creek and the warmth of the fire place gave us a perfect relaxing weekend. Highly recommend.
