Life can certainly be crazy. So it's no wonder many people seek refuge in the peace and quiet of the mountains. For one couple, the allure of a secluded mountain home was too great to resist. Nestled in the hills outside of Blue Ridge, Georgia, their home is a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of daily life and is ready for you. Welcome to the Otter Side, a peaceful and genuinely serene retreat.

The home, crafted with great care and attention to detail by a local builder, reflects the owner's passion and dedication. They genuinely admire the unique custom mantels and paneling made from timber sourced from the property, as well as the distinct bar top that adds character to the cozy interior.

Staying in this tranquil setting is a true pleasure, with abundant wildlife adding to the experience. The cabin's namesake, a playful river otter, is a regular visitor to the nearby stream, offering hours of entertainment for everyone as you observe it fishing. In addition, the soothing sound of the babbling brook that runs by the property is a constant source of relaxation, whether taking advantage of one of the outdoor screened living areas or allowing it to lull guests to sleep at night.

Enjoy ample natural light, comfortable furnishings, and wonderful details throughout, including wood ceilings and beams, luxurious kitchen finishes, and even a glass walkway to one of the upstairs bedrooms! Even the bathrooms are luxurious. Every shower is unique and constructed differently. The basement shower is a steam shower, so it is similar to a mini sauna, and the master bathroom is finished with heated floors. From the game room, complete with a PacMan arcade, to the outdoor areas with their gas grill, hot tub, and fire pit, there is a place every single family member will be able to enjoy!

Despite being secluded, the home is conveniently located! Enjoy being just a 15-minute drive from downtown Blue Ridge. You will love all of the fun surrounding you, as well as the friendly locals and the welcoming ambiance of the town. There's something for everyone in Blue Ridge.

For those seeking peace and serenity in nature, The Otter Side is a dream come true. The calming sound of the babbling brook, the playful wildlife, and the tranquil seclusion of the surroundings make this home the perfect refuge and the perfect place to escape.
