About 879 Amy Creek Cir

Set in a peaceful mountain community where Amy Creek flows nearby, this storybook log cabin in Ellijay, GA offers over four acres of natural beauty, privacy, and timeless charm. Designed with the feel of a grand mountain lodge, the cabin opens into a great room with soaring ceilings that give it a sense of grandeur, while still feeling warm, welcoming, and incredibly livable. Outside, a wraparound porch with lounge swing connects seamlessly to an entertainment deck with HOT TUB featuring a restaurant-style outdoor bar that overlooks a massive rock fireplace—the perfect setting for evenings by the fire or unforgettable gatherings under the trees. Climb to the highest level and discover a hidden Harry Potter sleeping nook hovering over the freshwater spring and waterfall flowing directly beneath the Helen-esq treehouse deck, adding to the one-of-a-kind outdoor ambiance. Surrounded by gentle wildlife, this retreat feels like Snow White's mountain escape. Just minutes from the Cartecay River for trout fishing and tubing, and close to Downtown Ellijay, Blue Ridge, Cherry Log, Fowler Mountain, and Frozen Gap, this magical property offers both peaceful solitude and access to endless outdoor adventure.
