There is so much to love about the cabin. Deer are almost a daily occurrence as they graze and roam the property. If you’re lucky you can catch a flock of turkeys passing through.

WOW !!
We have rented cabins in this are for a few years now. This cabin was the best ever. The cabin itself was very clean and the host provided everything to make our stay exceptional. The property was on pretty level ground which made it very easy to enjoy the back yard and walk down to the beautiful creek and sit on the deck. When you walk out to the back covered patio it's just perfect. The stone fireplace, outdoor furniture to relax on all made this stay awesome! The covered patio was for sure our happy place. Every day around dusk the deer would show up along the creek, we never seen less than 10 to 15. We really enjoyed watching all the deer. We try to rent a cabin in the spring and fall every year, and booked this cabin again for November and we can't wait to go back!!!

Perfect Family Getaway
So many great things to note here… Scott was a fantastic host! He checked in a couple days prior to our arrival to see if we had any questions and confirm we had directions.. and when we arrived.. so many little gestures to make the cabin feel like a home away from home. A thoughtful gift basket of snacks and stocked full of coffee, not to mention toys for the kids and outdoor activities for us all! The cabin itself… an absolute 10! The setup is amazing, the back deck is the best! So peaceful to be outside while listening to the creek, have a little fire going and watch the deer graze the back yard! The location of the cabin is also convenient to so many great places.. Downtown Elijay, Blue Ridge, Dahlonega, Amicalola Falls, etc.. we absolutely loved this stay and can’t wait to return again.. hopefully very soon! If you stay in this area, stay with Scott at Tank’s Escape!

Amazing time. Owner Scott gave wonderful recommendations on local places to eat and places to see. The home was comfortable and inviting as was the outdoor space. Had not played foosball in years and we all had several rousing games on the beautiful covered deck. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful Home & Location
We absolutely loved the house! So clean, comfortable & great location. We really enjoyed the back deck and spent all our time out there. We golfed at the local golf course, went to Blueridge, and ate out every night in downtown Ellijay. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!!

We will be back!
Can’t say enough about our stay! We felt so welcome and relaxed. It felt like staying at a friends house instead of the rigid rules you’ll find at other places. My 16 year old was impressed with the snacks and gum, my infant was happy with the pack-n-play, my husband never left the back porch and I was in love with the master shower. We saw 10 deer and two groundhogs. My husband has never said we should go back to a place until this one!

Amazing Trip
Very impressed with the property and all of the amenities. The property is beautiful and the deck is very impressive, it's where we spent most of our time. We loved that there are all kinds of games available for all ages, indoor and outdoor. This was actually our first cabin trip for my boyfriend's birthday and we loved it. You can tell that Scott the owner takes pride in his property, it is very well kept, updated, and well stocked for his guests. We will definitely be back.

Cabin set on lovely property
This was the best cabin we have ever stayed at in the Ellijay area. Scott was the perfect host and made sure our stay was worry free. It has all the amenities you could ever want inside and out. The setting is lovely and quiet. The outside deck provides shade and plenty of seating for relaxation. Saw deer every evening. Scott's property had many outdoor activities available including horse shoes and corn hole. Our little dog enjoyed being able to run around the yard. We rate this property A+.

North Georgia Getaway
Upon arrival, my daughter and her friends saw a family of eight deer and completely fell in love. The hosts welcomed everyone with a gift basket and even provided items to make s'mores! The cabin itself was clean and so well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Scott was such an attentive host. As a parent, I so appreciated his kindness. I can't wait to reserve again and am confident you will love a visit as well!

The cabin was immaculate and was the perfect location for mountain excursions. We booked this cabin for a getaway vacation and enjoyed nature. The back deck with a bar and fireplace was perfect for drinks and music, it becomes your own outdoor hangout. Scott was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions you may have. We highly recommend this cabin and host and look forward to visiting again. Tanks Escape offers everything you need to escape, relax, and enjoy.

Good times
Great Cabin with beautiful scenery. We saw Deer each day around the same time in the afternoon. The owners were very accommodating. The property was better than what we expected. Great place for just a getaway or for a family. We gathered by the fireplace at night on the back porch. Made some great memories. They provided some drinks and snacks. They think of just about anything you could need. We will definitely recommend to everyone we know. Also can’t wait to book another trip!! Thanks again we loved it!!

Perfect Christmas Getaway
This was the perfect Christmas Getaway for our families. We drove in from Arkansas and my parents drove in from Virginia. We had 6 total with one 16yr old and a dog. The property was just as described in the listing, and beautifully decorated for Christmas! The back porch was amazing! The owners checked on us multiple times due to an extreme cold front passing through, we had no issues with the cabin and even got snow! The location is great as well, lots of towns within a short driving distance, larger cities a bit further out. This was just the break we needed from the hustle of life. The owners have great hospitality and the check in and check out process was easy and stress free. We highly recommend this place!

Perfection!
My sisters and I take an annual Christmas trip each year.. We are so blessed to have found this cabin near Ellijay. It is amazing! From the perfect layout of the rooms to the myriad of snacks and drinks left for our use to having an indoor and outdoor fireplace in a truly beautiful location. We were greeted by deer each day when we came home from shopping in Ellijay. Everything we could possibly need or want was provided at the cabin. Our host, Scott, was great about relaying all the information we needed and told us about a beautifully decorated covered bridge just up the road. We hope to be able to go back to the cabin at a time when it's warm enough to use the outdoor space. Thanks, Scott, for sharing your beautiful home.
