Laurel Pocket - 10 woodland acres near McLemore

Remarkable privacy and calm: our simple house is truely a getaway. This acreage is nearly untouched forest, where small paths lead down through plentiful mountain laurel, hardwoods and fantastical sandstone boulders that make Lookout Mountain a climbing destination. McLemore is 5 minutes away, and some of North GA and AL’s best state parks are short drive away. Deep on a rural drive and nestled against protected conservation property, the wildlife and stars easily outnumber the humans.

Property is wooded and quiet, there are hiking trials down to some stone features, backwoods camping areas, and a seasonal waterfall. You’ll see deer, turkey, and occasionally the neighbor’s fluffy white Pyranese dog. He’s friendly but I can’t speak for the turkeys….

Trails: your adventures are are all below the house!
The trail begins below the back deck, it will wind down and connect to shared trails at the large clearing. This clearing is the "hub" of the trails. On your left, the upper trail will take you above the cliffs and the lower trail leads to the cascade waterfall. Above the cliffs, don't go too far past the gravel pad, you'll be on the neighbor's land.
The lower trail takes you below the cliff ends at the waterfall. Essentially, the creek is the property line on that side. (If you want to get a peek at Turtle Head Rock, step up on the rocks right at the cascade and look back above the cliff towards the house. Can you spot it?
-During dry weather, the creek may not be flowing.

From that same clearing, a wider track leads back uphill to the right, and is for guests at our tiny house.

The upper driveway is shared with our tiny house rental up and over the hill on neighboring land, so you may see a car or two pull past at the top of the property. Please respect their privacy and keep your exploration downhill of the main house.

The neighborhood road is rural, so expect a few bumps and puddles, but cars and minivans have had no trouble reaching the property. There is good Verizon cell coverage around the house, not sure about other providers.
