Loved the layout of the home and all the extra touches. The kitchen, bedrooms, & bathrooms were well stocked and thoughtfully furnished. Kiddo loved the Lincoln logs - we loved the large table outside on the balcony , sitting areas, the fireplace, the views and the beautiful nature. The driveway was a challenge but we figured it out. The host was attentive as well. Would highly recommend the house for family and/or a friend gathering. We were close to Ellijay and Blue Ridge, Amicola Falls and apple orchards.

Kitchen was fully stocked with spices and utensils needed for cooking. House had 2 fireplaces. One inside and one outside. We loved the outside fireplace and had a fire each night we were there. Spacious bedrooms. Grandson loved the game room! Fully stocked with games for him! The only drawback was the driveway. It was steep. Thankfully we didn’t get out but one day to go to the apple festival.

Amazing place with a great view

We stayed a few days to get a short break away from home. The cabin was great and had everything we needed. The private balcony deck had a nice view of the river. The kids loved the game room and the swing. The kitchen was plenty for making a few meals. We can't wait to come back sometime during the summer and go out tubing on the river.

Beautiful Home and Views

We had a great stay with family and enjoyed this cabin very much. We enjoyed seeing all of the deer in the area and listening to the water streaming down the river during the day, especially during our morning coffee. The outside fire place was perfect for us to roast smores and keep us cozy while grilling out for my sons birthday!! We would definitely come back!!

Sweetest Host Ever!

Our Christmas gift to our grown children and grandchildren was renting this cabin in Ellijay. We had 9 Adults and 10 kids (ages newborn to 10) and had a fabulous time. The cabin is beautiful. The extras (toys, dishes, firewood, etc.) were incredible. The fireplace on the porch with a view of the river was amazing!

Family adventures

The whole family absolutely loved our time spent on property. The cabin had everything we needed to make great memories. Seeing the deer throughout the community made the drive up the mountains road worth it for this Florida family. Hummingbirds visited every morning while enjoying our coffee on the balcony. Couldn’t ask for anything more, except to stay longer.
