We were very pleased with our stay. The cabin was very clean and our communication with the host prior to the stay was excellent, as he responded very quickly to any questions we had. He also allowed us to check in early on the day we were traveling to the cabin, but our schedule did not allow for that. We very much recommend these accommodations.

The cabin was just as it was depicted in the photos and the host. Damon provided all the information that we need to get into the cabin smoothly and quickly. We had a great time at the cabin. I would highly recommend this cabin. It was only two of us and it was plenty of room. Another advantage is the gated communityit was a smooth drive up to the cabin and just moments away from Ellijay. thank you again, Damon for allowing us the pleasure of staying in your cabin.
