Charming 19th-Century Schoolhouse - Dogs Stay Free!

Nestled in the quiet hills just outside Dahlonega, the Schoolhouse Cottage is a lovingly restored 19th-century schoolhouse where history and hospitality come together in perfect harmony. With original floors, ceilings, and windows still intact, this one-of-a-kind retreat invites guests to step back in time — without sacrificing modern comfort. Filled with curated antiques, cozy touches, and thoughtful details (including dog-friendly stays with no added fee), it’s the kind of place that feels like home the moment you arrive. Whether you're sipping a cold Coke on the porch, snuggling into one of the famously comfy beds, or cooking in the fully stocked kitchen, every inch of the cottage is designed to help you relax and reconnect. Perfect for couples, solo travelers, small families, or four-legged friends, the Schoolhouse is a soulful escape you’ll want to return to again and again.
