The perfect hide out does exist! 165 Custom Sawmill Road is primed for equestrian trail riders, backpackers, kayakers, rafters and anyone who likes to get away from it all. Location is everything here! The property adjoins the Sumter National Forest and is one turn away from the Rocky Gap Horse Trail and Whetstone Horse Camp. Earles Ford is at the end of that road, perfect for fly-fishing, swimming or putting in for Section III of the Chattooga River. The property is 3.13acres with a precious creek along the back and two dwellings. The back cabin is a 2014 stick-built studio style set up with a full bath and kitchenette. Highlighted by vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, spacious living area and two decks, you'll feel worlds away here. The back deck also has vaulted ceilings, sounds of the creek and no other structures in sight! This cabin is clad in Hardi plank siding meaning less maintenance, more trail time. The front cabin is a Green River RV park model (2010). It features a bedroom, full bath, living and dining space plus a generously sized covered deck with enough room for additional dining/living room furniture. From this deck you can keep an eye on your four-legged friends out in the corral. The horse area is currently set up into three 12x24 stall areas, but there are 20 mobile 12-foot horse corral panels to configure as you wish. The firepit is just off the corral area and between both cabins, perfect for gathering after a fun day in the woods. The creek is another sweet spot with several babbling areas, a bridge and easy access for discovering the fish and other creatures. The land lays very flat and has been under brushed. Additionally, there are two water hookups, two 30 amp hookups and a 3 horse trailer with living quarters could make it around the circle drive. Not quite ready to disconnect from everything? Fiber optic internet is already in place! There is an access to the Rocky Gap Horse Trail on Custom Sawmill Road. Rocky Gap features over 18 miles of horse trails, along with access to the Willis Knob Trail, located in the Chattahoochee National Forest in Georgia. Whether you plan to stay full time or just come to play, this is the perfect spot to begin your next adventure. Schedule your private tour today!
