Fort Mountain Georgia—It was 1996, and newly married Robert and Liz Coleman found themselves reeling in phone calls, faxes and pressure from working at home and telecommuting. Robert had recently left his career as a funeral director to take up property management, and Liz was a salesperson for a large computer company. Both trying to manage the myriad of distractions from phone calls, emails and faxes appearing in their Atlanta, GA home-based offices twenty-four hours a day, they decided to build a dream vacation home in the tranquility of the North Georgia mountains. After vacationing in cabins in throughout Georgia, the Colemans happened upon a tract of land that bordered the 135,000 Chattahoochee National Forest. Little did they dream at the time that the 18-acres they purchased to build their dream hide-away would eventually result in a successful 129-acre North Georgia cabin rental destination, Bed and Breakfast Inn and mountain gift shop.
After almost three years of working to install roads, electricity, water and septic tanks, the Coleman's dream home was soon to open, and along with it, two rental cabins. After traveling to cabin resorts throughout the United States to garner ideas, Robert and Liz furnished their cabins with all the amenities that would attract the most discerning of visitors. Thus, Wilderness View Cabins was launched in May, 2000 with two cabins featuring everything from stacked stone fireplaces, outdoor hot tubs carefully placed for ideal stargazing and mountain views, and all the luxuries of home (dishwasher, microwave, full size refrigerator with icemaker, washer/dryer, and phone). Each cabin was imprinted with the Coleman's personal style including totem poles, antique doors made into windows, antique claw-foot bath tubs, steam room, hand made doors, tongue and groove interior, wood floors, and oriental rugs. To insure absolute privacy, each cabin was located on its own five-acre parcel of land. Indeed, no detail was overlooked to insure that those seeking the utmost in luxury seclusion would find it at Wilderness View Cabins.

As word spread, Wilderness View Cabins popularity grew, and with it came more cabins. Both Robert and Liz permanently moved to Fort Mountain, GA to manage the cabin rentals. Soon, the business expanded to include twelve distinctively unique cabin rentals, an antique and gift shop, and a B & B inn, located on an overlook near Wilderness View Cabins. After years of hands-on research, the Colemans opened The Overlook Inn Bed and Breakfast with six suites and spectacular wrap-around views in October, 2002. Today, Wilderness View Cabins and The Overlook Inn welcome guests from all over the United States seeking the refuge of Northern Georgia's mountain tranquility for getaways, weddings, reunions and small meetings. The Coleman family maintains a hands-on approach, taking time to welcome guests to their special place in the mountains.
