The historic and iconic trail crosses GA 76 just 1.5 mile from the cabin. You can park at Dicks Creek Gap and hike a few minutes or a few miles up and down this challenging trail.

We love the hiking trail beside the creek up to the waterfall. Gorgeous views, cool air wafting up from the creek in the summer, and a fairly easy hike make it a wonderful adventure. The lake offers boat rentals, and the stock ponds are fun for kids to see fish.

Food Scene

Just across GA 76 from Barefoot Road is the winery for our neighborhood vineyard -- which is just across the "holler" from Hillside Hideaway. You can stop in for a wine tasting, a glass of wine, or a chocolate covered strawberry. Our neighbors run the place and are always up for a chat. On weekends they sometimes offer live music. The winery is open 2-5 most days. Check out their website.

A special-occasion spot that will require a reservation. Amazingly, this small town restaurant has been featured repeatedly in publications like Wine Spectator. Check out their menu online and make the trip (about 20 minutes) to Hayesville for a superb dinner.
