Chip’s prediction: this is the future of residential construction! Why? We are not going to lie…There is a LOT of upfront work in the design and review process…and it’s very detail oriented. But pre-fabricated wall panels eliminate both extra on-site labor and material waste. The panels flat pack for easy shipping and on-site unloading, and […]

As seen on Fox & Friends – December 5, 2021 Pauli and I are so excited for you to to continue following us on this journey of building Pinhoti Peak, and here’s the clip of our recent holiday check in on the morning show Fox & Friends: Even though we’ve done hundreds and hundreds of […]

As seen on Fox & Friends – October 24, 2021 Pauli and I are so excited to share this project that we’ve been working on for the last several month! Like most, this past year had our family re-evaluating the way we do life, and longing even more for a place we can escape. Pinhoti […]

A new construction build will become exponentially more complicated when you’re not on site every single day to receive deliveries that can sometimes get rescheduled last minute. Pinhoti Challenge: How can we make receiving and storing our building supplies more convenient and secure when our property is located over an hour away? Pinhoti Solution: Our […]

As the cost of building materials continues to surge, construction sites are becoming more susceptible to theft. And with our remote location, our project could look like an easy target. In fact, we had several people from the county’s building department, local building crews and others warn us of recent thefts along our forestry service […]

Building on top of a mountain poses many challenges…and one of those most obvious is dealing with the steep terrain. To maximize our views from the building site, we will need to climb the property at a fairly steep percentage even with creating a few cutbacks up the driveway. Pinhoti Challenge: How can we properly […]

Did you know that the average 40ft trailer needs approximately 100 feet to turn u-turn? And why is that important to know? Well, building in the middle of nowhere (especially on top of a mountain) generally doesn’t provide you with an adequate site to properly receive deliveries for your off-grid build. Pinhoti Challenge: How can […]

Our family has always felt most fully awake, fully engaged when we are submerged in nature. Whether it is a high-speed adventure of ATV rides or white-water rafting, or a quiet reflective hike…the wilderness calls us. It refreshes and energizes us. It challenges and inspires us.

Maybe it is our background in real estate, or maybe it’s just our daydreaming nature, but Chip and I just enjoy driving and looking at properties. So, on our route home from our ATV adventure, we decided to see if there was anything for sale nearby. I was disappointed to see there was not anything […]

On a cold New Year’s Eve our crew loaded up with blankets and a full thermos of hot chocolate in hand and headed out to explore one of Georgia’s OHV trails.  The Rock Creek and Tatum Lead ORV trail is located between Chatsworth and Elijay near Fort Mountain in the heart of the Chattahoochee National […]
