North Georgia Mountains, our cabin has a circular drive that you can park in. Up to 32’ will probably fit OK. We have a roof over to park under if our rv is not there. There is water available with FAUCET AT SITE. (Not in winter months when it may freeze) ELECTRIC MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR A SMALL DONATION. WIFI may only be available when we are there as we shut it off for winter. When on it can be accessed from porch, ask for passcode. SEE US OR OUR CARETAKER. Suggested Local Attractions:We are within 10 miles of the beginning of the APPALACIAN TRAIL. The Benton Mckay trail passes 3 miles from us. So lots of hiking opportunities. Also lots of waterfalls to check out. You can hike to the river and cross the swing bridge over the Toccoa river. It's 14 miles to downtown Blue Ridge, a town filled with antique stores, restaurants and a Railroad ride through the mountains to the next town along the river.

TWO RETIREES ESCAPING THE FLORIDA HEAT TRAVELING THE COUNTRY IN OUR RV. LOVING LIFE AND THE LORD Details: We are retired from 30 years in the real estate business and investing our time seeing the country we love. I served with the US Air Force then gave Ma Bell 13 years before venturing into building, investing, selling and managing real estate. Ruth was involved in the medical field for 6 years. I have been doing income taxes and Honey-Do projects and volunteering with Habitat for Humanity in Ga. We do some mission work with an RV group called the SOWERS for churches and charity organizations, mostly in Florida in the winters. We travel with our Yorky and 5 or 6 box turtles in our 30' Winnebago C class coach towing a Honda CR-V for running around. Will love to meet other members and spend time in their areas as we explore the states along the way. Home Town: Titusville FL for winters and Blue Ridge GA in summer. Favorite Boondocking Locations: NORTH GA MOUNTAINS AT OUR CABIN AND VIRGINIA IN THE LYNCHBURG AREA. ON THE ROAD WE HAVE FOUND THAT CRACKER BARRELS ARE GREAT PLACES TO STAY AND CLOSE TO THE INTERSTATES. WALMARTS ARE GOOD TOO WHEN WE ARE JUST MOVING THROUGH. Skills or Expertise to Share: DECENT COMPUTER SKILLS INCOME TAX PREPARATION MECHANICAL EXPERIMENTER SOME SOLAR KNOWLEDGE HANDYMAN AND HELPER

Very kind, helpful hosts. I would absolutely recommend Ed & Ruth if nothing more than to take in the mountain air, scenery and a beautiful, safe space to get some rest. However, there are some beautiful sites to see within a short distance. I did not need hook ups but they do offer water and electric.

We had a quick but very pleasant stay with these cordial and welcoming hosts. The access was a bit tricky, but there was a private and mostly level parking area.

Had a lovely time staying and working on my inventory. Loved getting some puppy love and seeing the deer. Road up there, typical mountain roads that I’m getting used to. Thank you for your hospitality 😊

Beautiful quiet location but close to many mountain activities and hiking/kayaking. The circular driveway was very easy to navigate our 25'truck camper but I can see how larger units may have some difficulty. Overall very nice stay.

Good off the beaten path road to take an evening stroll. Thanks for the WiFi on the porch. We highly recommend this stop, if you’re passing this way.
