About the host
Hosted by Steven Bonner
I love to serve others and hosting on VRBO is an avenue for me to do just that. I am married and have 3 grown children, love to travel, hike, and sip on my favorite cocktail creekside at our cabin in Ellijay. When not in Ellijay, I live in TN and teach at a university and serve as an Executive Coach.
Why they chose this property
We love the trees, seclusion, and the babbling creek. When we want to get away, this is where we go. It is far enough away to feel like we are actually getting away and decompressing, yet close enough to town to grab some great food with the family.
What makes this property unique
I think the most unique benefit of our cabin is the proximity to the creek. It is simply wonderfully relaxing. Of course, we have outfitted our game room with all the necessities to entertain family and friends if the weather keeps you inside. Guests will enjoy our pool table, multitude of games, theatre area, and classic arcade games.
