Seventy-Four Ranch is deeply embedded in Cherokee, Civil War and Moonshine War events. It sits on Cherokee land, it’s within site of the “Scarecorn Church Massacre” that stems from the War Between the States. And the Butler-Cape House was home to one of the most famous North Georgia lawmen, Lee Cape, who destroyed corn liquor stills during Prohibition, while some of his sons were making moonshine on our property. Our lodging is filled with rare antiques and artifacts. We use them in our story-telling. We have four unique cabins, and four guest rooms inside the historic Butler-Cape House (pre-1850.) Combo rates for two or more rooms or cabins are available. All lodging is priced per room, not per person and it includes a hearty breakfast served in the Butler-Cape House. The Butler-Cape House is pre-1850 and has been painstakingly restored downstairs. Upstairs, we lovingly renovated so 21st century people would not feel cramped. The house is rich in Cherokee, Civil War and Moonshine Wars history. Its chimneys were crafted by the Cherokees before the Removal, leading many to believe that the first part of our home was indeed built and lived in by the Cherokees. All rates include a hearty, delicious breakfast. Menu changes daily and we accommodate special diets.
