Huge Panoramic Mountain View Pool Table/hottub/fooseball/outdoor Firepit

Welcome,


Had a family have to cancel, exposed to Covid at funeral last week, waiting on test results. So this is open for a prime Fall color week and I reduced the rate 20 percent!

So Monday 10/19 through Thursday night 10/22, checking out the morning of the 23rd is available.



There are NO restrictions on renting this home at the current time.



A word about our policies for cancellation. VRBO forces owners to choose a policy that they arbitrarily decide the parameters on. The options they give me to choose are 30 or 60 days with full refund, with 15 or 30 days for 50 percent refund, respectively. From experience, (16 years of renting this home), 30 days for full refund is not enough. 30 days gets me cancellations for dates that have been booked for months (and off market for others to book) without enough time to rebook, costing me rental income when the home would have likely rented. 60 days is about right, under NORMAL circumstances, but these circumstances are not normal. So since VRBO forces me to choose, I choose 60 days for full refund, 30 days notice for 50 percent refund. (because they make me check one of their choices...) But here's my real policy moving forward, in writing right here... I will provide a full refund with 45 days notice for cancellations due to COVID Related issues. I will provide a 50 percent refund with 3 weeks notice. I will also work with guests who might have to cancel to provide an alternative date in the future. I will also provide a 100 percent refund (or credit for future date if so desired) if a govt agency prohibits short term vacation rentals during the dates of your stay for this location, or if a govt agency where you live imposes a shelter at home for the guests who rent the home for the dates of a stay. VRBO allows me to override the refund policy and refund more it I want. So I will follow this policy. I think this is a good balance between your ability as a guest to secure your dates and take them off the market for me to rent, and my ability as a host to have a policy that addresses today's unique circumstances while allowing me to earn the income required to pay the mortgage and operating expenses. It it allows for Government to supersede both of those.



In response to obvious need for safety and sanitation in these times, I have instructed housekeeping to disinfect all kitchen and bath counter surfaces, door handles, remotes, light switches, stair railings, etc., with the idea that if its a hard surface that is likely to come in contact with hands, disinfect it after every guest check out I have increased their compensation for cleaning for the extra time required to do this.

A note from the owners...



We highly recommend you read the guestbook! (See link below with over 80 comments...) Our former guests are truly the best form of advertising we have. Many thanks to those who have left the very nice comments about our home, the view, and the area!!



We designed and built this home as our 'dream home' that we would spend the rest our lives in. Little did we realize how children can change your outlook on what is the 'perfect' place to

live. The home took us three-and-a-half years to construct and we did most of the work, camping on the property while we built. It is truly a unique property like no other in the North Georgia Mountains and we have been unable to capture more than one quarter of our view in one photo image. The view is literally as far as you can turn your head from one direction to the other, year round.


In October of 2003, we decided to make it available for vacation rental use for the first time. It is a very large home with all the upgrades and attention to detail that we could afford. Many of our guests have been overwhelmed with the value they received for their vacation dollar. While we have done our best to make sure everything is just right for our new guests, we will continue to make improvements as time goes on. We hope you come to love it as much as we do...



Don't let the full moon's go to waste! They are truly awesome in this house!



Lastly, be wary of a listing that does not show pictures of the view, it likely means that they don't have one worth showing. This listing shows three of the five photos required to take in the full panoramic view from Paramount Place. We would show more, but they only give us 16 photos and as it is a large home with lots of amenities, we need the other 9 to properly show the home.



Warm Regards,



Frank and Tish
