Above Expectations | Secluded Mountain-View Retreat w/ Game Room, Hot Tub & Fire Pit

Welcome to Above Expectations, where rustic charm meets refined comfort in the heart of the North Georgia mountains. Tucked away on 2.5 private, wooded acres in Morganton, near Blue Ridge. This cozy-yet-luxurious cabin offers everything you need for a rejuvenating getaway with family or friends - complete with panoramic long-range mountain views from the master bedroom, upgraded amenities, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that truly lives up to its name.

As you make your way along winding country roads past rolling pastures and vintage farmhouses, you'll feel your everyday worries begin to melt away. When you arrive, the red tin roof and classic front porch will immediately invite you in. Whether you are curled up by the fireplace, soaking in the outdoor hot tub, or sipping coffee on one of three decks, Above Expectations is a place to relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories.

Directions:

Waze, Apple Maps and MapQuest can all guide you to the property, but for the most accurate and precise directions, we recommend using Google Maps. Once you turn onto Fawn Trail from star Creek Road, you’ll drive about 150 meters on a gravel trail leading to the cabin (Above Expectations). A regular 2WD vehicle handles it fine, but if you are bringing a trailer, a 4WD is best.
