Chris the host was very prompt with any questions I had. The rooms were very clean and spacious. If you have bad knees or hips I would say the steps would be rough on them but still doable. The hot tub was hot and relaxing. Very quiet neighborhood. Strongly recommend.

A Peaceful Getaway

We had an amazing stay at the Mountain Chalet! The property was exceptionally clean and well-stocked with all the essentials and plenty of thoughtful amenities. The host was incredibly communicative, friendly, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The location couldn’t have been more ideal—close to downtown Ellijay and nearby towns, with beautiful creeks and stunning views in the community that became some of our trip highlights.A couple of suggestions for improvement: adding window coverings on the main floor for privacy due to nearby homes and large windows, and considering softer mattress options, as the firm beds made it a bit challenging to sleep. That said, there was no shortage of blankets, pillows, and other comforts. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it!.
