Waterfront cabin, treehouse embraced by 52 acre nature preserve and USFS

Frog Call Retreat is a destination. Enjoy the long private driveway to your hideaway, retreat to Nature and get recharged! Located less than 10 minutes from the picturesque town of Dahlonega, Frog Call is a 52 acre gated private nature preserve bordering National Forest. Minutes from everything, but you have the feeling of total seclusion. Exclusively yours and embraced by this beautiful land are overnight accommodations available to rent for 1 to 6 guests in a comfortably furnished 2 bdrm/2bath cabin (accommodates 6 guests in 3 beds). Overlooking a tranquil large catch and release pond with rainbow trout and large mouth bass, waterfalls, fire pit and rock dock seating area. Numerous private paths along rocky streams with beautiful noisy rapids. From your romantic clawfoot tub, watch the trout jumping in the pond and view wildlife enjoying the meadow. Pan for gold and visit 5 wineries a short distance from the cabin, if you decide you ever want to leave the property. You will find a minimum of distractions here. There is good internet and a land line for calls, if you are forced to have contact with the outside world. Cell phones work with internet connection. In addition, visit our amazing handicap access poplar sided tree house with queen bed on rushing creek rapids, and a hand crafted 4 bed hemlock wood bunk house, both designed by Asheville architect Taylor Barnhill.
The tree house and bunkhouse are sleeper houses and do not have running water or electricity. The bunkhouse is a 5 minute walk across the meadow. The tree house is a 10 minute stroll from the cabin. A golf cart is available for handicap use for an additional $25 per day, upon request.
What you will find at Frog Call is privacy, an abundance of nature, with cozy accommodations, and a serenity that can only be experienced. You have exclusive use of the facilities for your stay. There is a 3 night minimum for the months of March through December and on holidays.

Another great visit!

This is another return visit for us to Frog Call. We had a great time. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is the place to unwind. We will definitely book again.

Best rental ever

We absolutely loved our stay. The cabin is full of small details to have all the comforts of home and the hosts are incredibly thoughtful and welcoming. The best part is that the property is so expansive that my two large breed dogs were able to wander off leash safely for our entire stay. Seriously, it was like doggy Disneyland for them. We will definitely be back.

Great location and atmosphere!

What an amazing property! The seclusion and peacefulness were much appreciated. Adults, kids and dogs loved exploring the creeks and property. The additional bunk house and tree house were a wonderful touch. Mrs. Jimmie was very welcoming and thoughtful. We loved to swim in the pond in the afternoons. The family all want to come back next year!

Another Great Stay!

This was our 3rd trip to Frog Call, and it was wonderful as always! We love the beautiful property - the fish pond, the field, the woods with hiking trails and creeks. It is perfection! The cabin is very cozy too, with an incredible Master Bath! Our dog and children had a blast as well.

September Get Away

We truly enjoyed our stay! The house is very conveniently located near Dahlonega and a short drive from the nearby vineyards. We enjoyed the privacy this property offers, the walking trails, creek and small stocked fish pond. It was still a bit warm early in our stay so we didn’t have a chance to stay in the bunk house or tree house, but the offer a great chance to glamp out in the woods. The porch is large and we spent a lot of time relaxing out there while enjoying the fresh air. The owner is very nice and communicated often to make sure we had everything we need. We’d give our stay a big thumbs up!!

Peaceful beautiful property

We were looking for a peaceful getaway out of the hustle of the city. This was perfect. A private pond, lots of land for the dogs to run around and perfect for decompressing. Jimmie was always available if we needed her, and was so kind. We have rented from many properties (some good, some not so much) but we will be back to this one. Thank you for the lovely stay!!

A little bit of Heaven!

Back to the basics with nature. Property was amazing! Cabin quaint and comfortable, master bath artsy eclectic, fishing pond beautiful and well-stocked, birds and wind chimes serene, sweet silence that brings you much peace in this volatile world. Jimmie’s retreat is a gem, and so is she, above and beyond accommodating. Will definitely 100% be returning when we need to decompress and recenter. Thank you for this gift.

Wonderful stay! Family of 6

From the moment I booked the trip, Jimmie /Andy (host) was great with communication. They sent several messages regarding walkthrough of the property, check in/out, recommendations on food and activities etc. everything was exactly as outlined. It was a great stay and with the mobile phones weak signal and the single tv in the cabin I loved seeing the 4 kids not be in front of a screen. Seeing the square lit up and all the Christmas activities is what brought us up to the area but this property had us end our Saturday earlier than expected to head back to the cabin to hang out there and enjoy the surroundings. My (actually my 15 year old sons ) only complaint was he didnt get to catch a bass but caught plenty of trout. The master bathroom is AWESOME, the tub and shower is something if I ever own a place in a similar very private setting that I can do all the huge windows like they have I’d copy everything about it! Wonderful time on our short two night trip! Book it, you won’t regret it!

So Peaceful

We gathered for my birthday. While family stayed overnight, others came out for the day. The setting was very private and peaceful. A huge bonus was the fact that our dogs were able to come with us. We went for walks off leash daily and they swam in the pond every day. We also enjoyed the cold water of the creek on hot days. The cabin itself is well equipped and the Master Bedroom and Bath is beautiful with a shower and bathtub that overlook a bucolic scene. We will rent again.

Retreat to Nature

Stayed here last week for a get away with girlfriends....this place is pure heaven! I felt like I had taken a step back into time where the world operated at a slower pace. The porch on this house looks out over a beautiful pond - I could have sat out there for days reading a book but I would have missed out on walking all over the property and exploring all the woods had to offer. When I walked into the house I felt that whoever decorated the house put much time, thought and lots of love into it. I would highly recommend this rental property to anyone...it will not disappoint!

A Tranquil Adventure

We loved our way too short (two nights) visit to Frog Call. We are in our 70's and came for my husband's birthday. The house is extremely accessible and is filled with fascinating stuff. The kitchen is well-stocked with more pots, pans and gadgets than I have at home--I was able to cook a fancy dinner with ease. Everything written in the description ot his property is accurate. There are plenty of trails to explore, the bunk house and other cabin are well worth seeing and the golf cart makes life easy for anyone having difficulty walking. Feeding the fish is kind of fun and sitting on the HUGE screened in porch could easily turn into a lifestyle!!! Jimmie went out of her way for us and there was even a delicious birthday cake for my husband in the fridge. We already are thinking about making a return trip next year with friends. A real 10 out of 10. We feel very fortunate to have found this lovely place.

Excellent stay

Great communication with owner. Very helpful, nice, and understanding. Couldn't ask for better. If you are wanting to stay close to Dahlonega but still want to feel like you are in the middle of nowhere then this is your place. Just a short drive to downtown. Road gets a little narrow coming and going for the last 8 miles but it is very doable. So much space to explore outside. Our daughters dog loved exploring the trails. If you have an active dog then they'll love this place. The inside is very quaint and warm. Two main bedrooms with a large day bed in the living room. Only one tv but everyone watches everything on their phones now anyway. Just be prepared with tablets and such if you have small kids. Master bath is a dream. Trust me on this. A dream. Plenty of room to spread out inside and out. I loved the place and would go back in a heartbeat. My wife initially wasn't pleased with the small shower in the other bathroom, only one tv, and what she deemed too much clutter. After a bit she warmed up to it. But be aware the other shower is a stall shower. There is a bunch of stuff around. If you have small kids with grabby hands then it may be a little extra work for you. This is nitpicking though. Highly recommend. My wife and I stayed with our daughter, her husband and their German Short-haired Pointer. Can't ask for more from an owner, Great location. Great rental. Book it.

Family Vacation

What an amazing vacation!! We had the opportunity to stay in the heart of nature! The house was so cozy, especially the beds, and equipped with everything! Jimmie could not have been more welcoming and accommodating! The property has wonderful trails, a beautiful bunkhouse, and a fairytale style treehouse! We were able to feed the fish daily as well as throw a line in for catch and release! Evenings were highlighted by fireflies! A firepit allowed for s'mores and family time. Even the rain was gorgeous as it gently toppled down from the canopies of trees! We are very thankful for our time at Frog Call!

Fun with the Family

What a great time we had at Frog Call! No TV is a novelty for the kids, but we played cards and games, hiked, fed the junior fish, and enjoyed the quiet. The kids found entertainment outside playing and pretending the way kids should 😊 We got a 100% from everyone to come back to Frog Call, hopefully in the spring.!

Amazing place!

We went to Dahlonega to go to the Gold Rush and didn't really spend too much time there because all we wanted to do is enjoy the 50+ beautiful acres we had rented! We hiked, took the canoe out on the pond, fed the fish, grilled hot dogs and marshmallows over an open fire, slept in the treehouse and drove the golf cart around the property to let some elders see more of the property. And that's not even an exhaustive list of what all you can do at Frog Call. If you like being outdoors and enjoying nature, you will love this place. Even if you are a recluse, you will love the views and the open land and privacy of the space. Can't say enough good things about this property! I'd return next week if I could...:-)
