In the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains, with the Chestatee River carving through it, Dahlonega is quite possibly north Georgia’s most uniquely delightful town. Just 90 miles from Atlanta, in the heart of what the New York Times calls Georgia’s Wine Country, Dahlonega has something for everyone: outdoor adventure, visual and performing arts, culture, history, live music, and year-round entertainment at venues and seasonal festivals. Come find out for yourself why in 2023 Southern Living named Dahlonega “Georgia’s Best Small Town.”
The cabin. There are “rental properties,” and then there’s Selah. Charming, roomy, and comfortable, this unique, colorful home is perfect for making indelible memories with the whole family or friend group.
Sleep like a royal on luxuriously triple-sheeted beds; co-create culinary masterpieces in two fully outfitted kitchens then savor them inside or al fresco under the stars; tell stories late into the evening around the fire pits as night birds sing their songs; shoot pool or throw darts in the game room; cuddle up with a book in one of a dozen cozy nooks; enjoy a glass of local wine and the sound of the rushing river below from the screened in porch; throw a record on and boogie (or slow dance) the night away, or just… pause, stop, and listen.
