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.

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.

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a phone, as well as a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

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.

Great mountain retreat close to Clayton

Had a great stay at the ranch. We enjoyed the little stream, the cozy hot tub area, the fireplace. They have lots of little hang out areas on the property. The house was very clean and Laura was very responsive to all our questions and concerns. We had to delay our booking because of a snow storm and they were very accommodating. The only issue we had was getting our 2wd vehicle out of the driveway. It got icy and we had to get towed out. Otherwise the stay was great.

Peaceful property

This home has so many peaceful nooks. Sit on the porch with your coffee and listen to the babbling creek. Cross the cute bridge and have a bonfire and cook smores. Sit in the hot tub even when its rsining. Get comfy on the couch and watch a movie. Or, drive15-30 minutes and hike in the forest or the gorge. Drive into town and enjoy the shops, have a glass of wine, or eat at one of the many very good restaurants. The beds were all very comfortable. Laura was so responsive. Such a great property for a quiet girls weekend.

We had a great time. The property was very quiet and located close to Dillard and Clayton which made for good choices for dinner. The house was very clean and the wifi worked well. Not much phone signal, so wifi is a must! Hot tub and the creek were perfect.
