We had the best weekend! The place was ideal as it has plenty of space, while plenty of common areas and so many things to do - pool, darts, board games etc. The hosts provides basically anything you need in the kitchen - appliances, pots, pans etc. The cabin was super clean and the beds were very comfy with some pretty amazing views!

The home was clean, warm, inviting, and decorated beautifully. We loved it. Only negative was the drive up the mountain. I didn’t know it was so difficult to access the cabin until I got the text a few days before about the road’s conditions. If it was on the listing, I would have rented a jeep for the stay. Try to let people know about it earlier so they can plan to rent something and bring more supplies to limit trips down the mountain. Being an older mountain man, used to mountain travel, I was fine. Also, the hot tub was really murky and had a greenish hue. Try a good clarifier to remove the minerals.

The cabin was absolutely perfect! I loved that there were so many great spaces to be - a game room, multiple decks with mountain views, good outdoor space at the fire pit and the hot tub. We had rain the first day and a half and that definitely made trekking up/down the mountain challenging. But then the skies cleared and wow!!! We were treated to amazing views of the fall colors! I also loved that each bedroom was so nice! Very high quality linens/pillows/mattresses! So, no one had to sleep in a little kid room (we were all 50). And all bathrooms were really nice too! The kitchen had every appliance and tool that we needed too! We'd spend the days hiking or exploring orchards and pumpkin patches, but then we couldn't wait to return to the cabin! There is so much to do that we were very happy during the rainy days too! Communication was great and check in/out was very simple and easy! thank you so much! We'll be back for sure!

The house was great. Comfortable beds and great views. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen and the little details that made the house cozy. Mae was a great hostess, easy to contact. My only complaint was the dirt mountain road to get there. You should have 4wheel drive.

Thanksgiving family vacation

The property was beautiful and cozy. The mountain view was incredible. Our family enjoyed the hot tub and pool table. The cabin was decorated for Christmas and that was a plus. It added to the atmosphere of our vacation. Beautiful place to spend time with our grown children and grandchild.

Great spot for a friend trip and the pups

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful location with friends. There was lots to do in the surrounding towns of Ellijay and Blue Ridge, but the cabin came with lots of games, entertainment and spots to just sit and enjoy the view. We particularly loved the screened porch to escape the summer bugs. It was also a great spot for our pups. The backyard was the right size for them to stretch their legs and it was fully fenced, which eased our minds with curious dogs.

Best Christmas ever!

This cabin is absolutely amazing! Three stories all with amazing views. Being a foodie, I was really impressed with the very well stocked kitchen. It had everything. The bathrooms were very well stocked too with anything you would need. All the beds were so comfortable !! Being in between Ellijay and Blue Ridge was very convenient, but we spent much of our time enjoying the cabin. Wonderful and responsive hosts! We are booking again.
