Great host. House is beautifully decorated and in a great area. Right on the water and you can hear the River when sitting on the deck. Basement area of house is gorgeous and if you need the extra space, it is a great addition to the house.

We truly enjoyed staying here for two nights. We wish we could have stayed longer! Beautiful house, comfortable place to stay, great place for the kids, and nice for a family getaway! Loved the fire pit by the water. My granddaughter (5) loves the dress up clothes and accessories. The host was very kind and informative. Directions for our stay were clear.

First time to Elijay

Our family has always been a beach family for vacations. We tried out Elijay for the first time this year. The cabin is beautiful and steps away from the river. The owner has put a lot of effort into ensuring guests have a great time while staying at their cabin. I have had multiple friends ask me for the property information just from seeing photographs I posted on social media of our vacation. Very peaceful location. We can’t wait to go back.

Great Mountain Vacation

We enjoyed our house for the week. It was hard to find at first, but once we figured out to get to and from the house it was fine. We enjoyed the river and amenities of the resort. Our children loved fishing, swimming, and tubing in the river next to the house. It was beautiful and the owner was super helpful when we needed anything. We would love to rent from one of her properties again.
