This house is very secluded in a very quiet area off behind some beautiful farmland on the Cartecay- Close to town and apple picking - the covered car port was nice as we did have a rain shower There were also some very interesting flowers around the property and lots of butterflies- can tell some care and thought went into the grounds

Perfect getaway

The property was very nice, beautiful drive in off the beaten path, very private area. The place was extremely clean and had very comfortable beds. We really enjoyed our time away from home. And can’t wait to come back. Give this place a try, it’s definitely worth it.

Perfect Cabin on the River!

We booked this for a wedding in the area. It was beautiful and peaceful! The interior was so cozy and comfortable and super clean!!! Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed. The porch with rockers and swing was a great place to relax and the deck by the river perfect for cocktail hour! Highly recommend!!

Great place & AMAZING customer service

Can't recommend this place, and the hosts, highly enough. The cabin is exactly as advertised (clean, qiuant, quiet and private). The hosts are attentive and helpful. In fact, we unfortunately left something behind and the jumped at helping us retrieve it. Great guys!

Awesome

Our family spent our Thanksgiving week together at this cabin. The cabin was as in pictures, very comfortable, beds slept nice and comfortable, fully stocked kitchen, our family cooked our Thanksgiving meal together! The grounds have nice walking trails that our grandchildren enjoyed walking and exploring! We also enjoyed sitting on dock listening to the water stream. We also enjoyed the game areas, playing games spending good quality time together. We highly recommend visiting this cabin. Jason was awesome.

Great place to get away.

The only negative, and there isn't anything they can do, is the access to the river would be difficult for someone with physical issues. I loved the path that was created with Moss and rocks, the firepit by the river and the lack of ambient human made noise. After the first night, we were sitting by the firepit, during the day, and my wife said I am bored. I said exactly. That is the point. We had a great time.

Cozy, well equipped creek cabin

Nice place, but inside is smaller than appears in pictures. The neighbors on both sides decided to do yard work all weekend. None of the neighbors leashed their dogs and they were constantly roaming back and forth thru the yard. At one point there were 4 dogs barking at each other in the back yard.

Lovely Cabin on the River

We went for some R&R and to be altogether as I was just starting chemo. So it was a sweet time for our family. We mostly just stayed out at the cabin except for one day going into Ellijay which is a wonderful town, quaint & very enjoyable to walk around. The cabin’s fireplace was great…it was cold weather so we so enjoyed sitting by the fire and relaxing. Beautifully decorated cabin with every amenity we could need. Plenty of space to spread out. The river was beautiful and we sat outside and enjoyed to rushing sounds of the River. It was very peaceful & relaxing. Wonderful cabin, settled nicely off the beaten path, but not too far from town either.

Just what we needed!

My wife and I needed a change of scenery and a short break from our day to day of running our small business. A quiet place to chill out was what we needed and we got just that. The king bed in the master was very comfy as was all the livingroom furniture. The layout of the kitchen gave us ample counter space for meal prep and all our stuff. I enjoyed building a fire inside on the rainy nights. The internet was great making it easy to stream our favorite tv content. The neighborhood was great for a morning walk. We did notice that several folks own dogs but they all seemed friendly. The location was convenient to our needs and the property was easy to access. Jason was a great host and quick to respond to any questions we had.

Cozy and wonderful

This property was set way off the main road, so if you are looking for way out it's for you. It's right on the river, which we wanted and made a fire in the firepit every night and one in the cabin one night. We enjoyed our stay very much and didn't want to leave. The cabin was cute, clean and well stocked. Jason, the manager, answered my emails quickly if I had questions. Game tables in the basement and a very cute loft area with a couch, board games, and a table kept our kids entertained. Plenty of seating outside for enjoyment of the river and a fire plus screened in porch. Would definitely stay here again.
