About this home
Welcome to The Lost Compass, a fully-renovated, FULLY FURNISHED, turnkey creekside motel in the heart of North Georgia's scenic wilderness. This distinctive 4-unit property (zoned for up to 15 units) has been thoughtfully upgraded from top to bottom, offering a rare investment opportunity with style, comfort, and growth potential already built in. Each of the four guest suites has been individually designed and professionally furnished, with new custom paint, refinished bathroom tile, upgraded lighting and fixtures, and refreshed kitchenettes featuring new lighting and layout enhancements. The vaulted pine ceilings add rustic charm, while new 84" wrapped curtain rods and coordinated decor elevate the overall guest experience. Each unit also features its own screened-in porch with classic rocking chairs, inviting visitors to relax and take in the peaceful forest views. The two end units offer cozy fireplaces and king-sized beds for romantic getaways, while the two interior rooms feature double queen beds, perfect for families or groups. Additional property upgrades include fresh interior drywall repairs, stained trim and exposed beams, exterior painting, pressure-washed and stained decks, repaired sliding glass doors and gutters, extensive landscaping (including undergrowth clearing, mulching, and mowing), and the installation of a beautiful custom roadside business sign. Everything is in place for new owners to step in and start booking immediately. Set on 1.3 acres with frontage on scenic Highway 356, the property is zoned R3, allowing for up to 15 motel units, providing ample room to expand. Guests are welcomed by a wide front patio and can unwind at a separate deck area along the tranquil creek. On-site parking is plentiful, and the location places you just minutes from some of North Georgia's most beloved destinations. **ABOUT THE AREA** Centrally located between Lake Burton and the bustling Alpine town of Helen, Georgia's third most-visited city after Atlanta and Savannah, The Lost Compass sits squarely in one of the state's most active tourist corridors. Visitors flock to the area year-round for hiking, wineries, lakes, waterfalls, Bavarian festivals, and mountain adventures. With so much already in place, this property presents a rare chance to own a fully-operational, beautifully updated motel in a high-demand vacation market. Don't miss your opportunity to own a piece of North Georgia hospitality with built-in charm, potential, and profitability.
