Magic in the North Georgia Mountains
Escaping to Uhuburg Castle
On a camping trip decades ago, a married couple sat perched on a boulder, watching the sun lowering over the Appalachian Mountains. They had little to their name and were drinking the cheapest wine you could buy, but they smiled regardless.
Nearby, watching them admiringly, was their son. In that moment, he noticed that all that seemed to matter to his parents was each other and the sunset. They couldn’t have known it then, but this would be a defining moment for their son Bob Marthai—one that would continue to inspire him to pursue truth, sail ships, and dream big.
Uhuburg Castle is a product of that dream. Situated on 45 acres at the top of a wooded mountain knoll in Helen, Georgia, Uhuburg Castle is Marthai’s masterpiece, giving visitors an opportunity to escape from the ordinary, step into the magic, and yes, even spend the night.
