The two-slip boat house with upper deck and swimming platform is steps away from the house across Timpson Cove Road. House is sold as is. Walking distance from Anchorage Marina, the property is minutes from Waterfall Country Club, the small mountain cities of Clayton, Hiawassee and Clarkesville, plus Moccasin State Park and Fish Hatchery. The cabin is located in Rabun County which is famous for hiking trails, waterfalls and excellent dining. Home is being sold as is.
