Perfect!
This was truly the perfect place to relax and unwind! The view is gorgeous, the home is gorgeous, the sound of the creek rushing over the waters was so peaceful, and it is only a short drive to the town of Ellijay. Truly the perfect getaway!

Truly Almost Heaven
I found this home through a VRBO recommendation and it was better than I thought it would be! The home is beautiful and very well decorated in a barn style with all the amenities. The property is located on Mountaintown Creek and the outdoor spaces lend themselves to sitting creek side enjoying nature. The city of Ellijay was very enjoyable with a lot of shops, antique hunting, and great restaurants. We had a great time and would definitely visit again!

Almost Heaven
I stole the title from a sign at the property because it was the perfect description for this place. The house is perfectly pristine with any and everything you would need for a relaxing stay. From the decor and bedding to the chef worthy kitchen and perfect placement next to the creek this place exemplifies the aforementioned “Almost Heaven”. My wife and I were there to unplug and restfully celebrate her birthday. We enjoyed sitting by a fire out by the creek at night and took advantage of all the amenities. We did not have a reason to leave for the 3 nights we were there. The host was very responsive as well. We will definitely be returning to this place.
