Absolutely Stunning & Rare Find - 44.86 Private Acres with Your Own 9-Acre Spring-Fed Lake, Long-Range Mountain Views & Amicalola Falls Vistas! This nature's paradise lies in the center of four charming country towns: Ellijay (roughly 18 miles NW), Dahlonega (roughly 18 miles NE), Dawsonville (roughly 18 miles south), and Jasper (roughly-yes, you guessed it-18 miles SW). Secluded, yet nestled in the cradle of true country living, this extraordinary location is only 65 miles from Georgia's leading, bustling city, offering a peaceful escape without sacrificing convenience. This can truly be your Shangri-La. This exceptional North Georgia property spans two parcels (019 010 - 38.96 acres and part of 019 010 007 - 5 acres), offering the rare opportunity to own a private lake and creek retreat surrounded by 44.86 acres of pristine natural beauty. From the ridgelines, enjoy sweeping 180 long-range mountain views and direct views of Amicalola Falls, with the shimmering waters of your private 9-acre, spring-fed, man-made lake nestled below. Fed by three natural creeks-including Little Amicalola Creek, which flows directly from the falls-this property is a perfect blend of privacy, tranquility, and opportunity. The 44-foot engineered dam was professionally compacted to 99% and is fully maintained by Dawson County and the Georgia DNR, ensuring long-term stability. The lake is fully stocked with bass, brim, rainbow trout, carp, and catfish, making it an angler's dream. Rolling pastures and hardwood ridges surround the lake, providing multiple premium building sites, some with unobstructed views of both the lake and Amicalola Falls. The gated entrance, once recognized nationally as one of America's most beautiful gates, sets the tone for this remarkable property. Deeded easements provide convenient access, and a potential new road can be cut parallel to the creek for full connectivity. Fiber high-speed internet adds modern convenience, making this the perfect site for a luxury mountain lodge, family compound, or private digital retreat. Enjoy abundant wildlife, scenic trails, and several acres of open pastureideal for livestock or recreation.
