Perched atop the famed ridgeline of Lookout Mountain, Georgia, McLemore Resort has earned its reputation for sweeping vistas, world-class golf, and a way of life lived “above the clouds.” Now the destination retreat and community has unlocked the doors of its latest architectural statement: The Lookout at McLemore Resort, an AR Homes design imbued with Garden & Gun’s unmistakable sporting life aesthetic. This thoughtful abode offers a chance to experience the spirit of the South in a warm and elevated setting in which comfort never comes at the expense of elegance. Thanks to a partnership with McLemore Resort, LEE Industries, and Marvin, the property’s distinct look came to life.

The exterior of The Lookout

From the moment you step inside The Lookout, Marvin windows and doors shape the experience—expansive panes capturing sweeping views, slender sightlines inviting daylight deep into each room, and architectural details accenting the home’s natural materials of stone, slate, and wood. In the great room, two-story windows emphasize the drama of the mountain setting, while in more intimate spaces, like the elegant library and sun-filled bedrooms, they create a sense of calm and quiet luxury. That’s intentional.

“Every detail of the Marvin Ultimate Collection is engineered for precision and performance,” says Stephanie Law of Home Choice Windows and Doors. “But it’s the handcrafted beauty and design flexibility that truly make Ultimate windows and doors the right fit for The Lookout.” The collection merges a timeless aesthetic with thoughtful, future-minded design, emphasizing the home’s Southern character while perfectly framing the scenery.

Throughout the 3,798-square-foot residence, the windows and doors do more than open the home to its surroundings—they elevate its livability. Energy-efficient glass, innovative hardware, and durable finishes support year-round comfort without compromising the timeless sensibility. The living room glider windows, for example, offer a portrait of the forest beyond while giving the space a contemporary look. French doors off the library allow afternoon breezes to circulate while still maximizing energy efficiency. And in the primary bedroom, a dramatic piece of art isn’t necessary. A panoramic view of Lookout Mountain’s stunning plateau does the work, shaping each sunrise and cloud drift like a living landscape painting. At McLemore Resort, life is enjoyed “above the clouds.” In The Lookout, Marvin ensures that feeling is not just seen but felt. Mindfully placed to enhance the architecture, amplify natural light, and honor the beauty of Lookout Mountain, Marvin’s windows and doors transform a remarkable home into an unforgettable retreat.
