LAKEFRONT OUTDOOR LIVING

This is where Wet Feet Retreat really shines. Spend your mornings with coffee overlooking the water and your evenings watching the colors of sunset reflect across Lake Blue Ridge.

The spacious front porch features outdoor seating, an outdoor dining space, and an outdoor television—perfect for watching your favorite game while grilling, dining outside, or simply enjoying the view.

The property also features an observation deck overlooking the lake, accented by patio lighting and positioned near the outdoor fire-pit area. Gather around the fire, make s'mores, pour your favorite drink, and watch another North Georgia sunset disappear behind the mountains.

When it's time to completely unwind, head to the private hot tub patio for a relaxing soak and some incredible mountain stargazing. Forget what time it is—or what galaxy you're in.

Throughout the property you'll also find hanging swing chairs and hammocks overlooking the bird sanctuary & nature trail, creating quiet little places to curl up with a book, take an afternoon nap, or simply listen to nature. Over 28 species of birds have been identified at the property.
