About This Home

Welcome to The Lost Compass, a fully renovated and turnkey creekside motel in the heart of North Georgia. This unique 4-unit property (zoned for up to 15 units) has been completely upgraded and is sold FULLY FURNISHED, offering an ideal investment in one of the state's busiest tourist areas. Each guest suite features vaulted pine ceilings, a full bath, a refreshed kitchenette, and its own screened-in porch with rocking chairs. The two end units include cozy fireplaces and king beds, while the interior rooms offer double queen beds. Every unit has been individually designed with custom paint, upgraded lighting and fixtures, and thoughtfully curated decor. Bathrooms have refinished tile, and kitchenettes have been rehabbed with new layouts and lighting. Upgrades include interior drywall repair, stained trim and beams, fresh exterior paint, pressure-washed and stained decks, repaired sliding glass doors and gutters, new 84" curtain rods, and extensive landscaping with mulching and undergrowth clearing. A custom roadside sign enhances curb appeal, and the entire property is guest-ready. Set on 1.3 acres with frontage along scenic Highway 356, the R3 zoning allows for motel use up to 15 units, giving new owners plenty of room to expand. The property also includes a wide front patio and a separate creekside deck, with ample on-site parking. **ABOUT THE AREA** Located between Lake Burton and downtown Helen, Georgia's third most-visited city after Atlanta and Savannah, this property attracts guests year-round with its proximity to hiking trails, wineries, waterfalls, and festivals. Whether you're looking to run a boutique motel, operate short-term rentals, or expand into a larger lodging business, The Lost Compass offers immediate income potential in a high-demand market.
