The terrain is level and gentle right at the road, with a mix of brush and brambles as you move farther in. Down toward the bottom, the lot is wooded. It directly borders U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land - the protected property around Carter's Lake and part of the Coosawattee River - both of which can be seen from the lot (though the slope down to the river is quite steep). You're less than 2 miles from the Ridgeway Boat Ramp, where you'll find a small dock and picnic area right on Carter's Lake near the Coosawattee River. The Tumbling Waters Trail also starts from the same parking area - which leads to a bridge and overlook deck with views of the falls and cascades on Tails Creek as it flows toward the lake. This lot is an ideal spot to build your new home or a cozy investment getaway, completely surrounded by the natural beauty of the North Georgia mountains - and still just a short, easy drive to downtown Ellijay.
