Nice little cabin on the Ellijay River

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was perfect for the 2 of us plus our mini schnauzers. It was clean and well stocked with quality furnishings. The management company was very responsive and easy to deal with. Having a fenced dog yard with no extra charges was a big plus. Due to the gravel road I highly recommend an SUV.

Here's a shorter, more casual version:---** Loved this cabin!**Had such a great stay here — clean, cozy, and in a perfect spot. Would definitely book again.Two small suggestions: a cover for the front door window would be nice for a bit more privacy, and a few extra chairs would help when sitting on lower balcony.Only downside was the outside trash from the last guests hadn't been emptied when we arrived, so we handled that ourselves. Didn't ruin the trip though — still a great place overall!

Thank you so much for staying with us and for the great review! We are thrilled to hear you found the cabin clean, cozy, and perfectly located. We really appreciate your suggestions. Adding extra chairs for the lower balcony is already being discussed with the owner. Regarding the outside trash, it is on a Wednesday weekly pickup schedule and was emptied on time, but with guests in the cabin prior to your arrival and after the pick up, it looks like the timing didn't quite line up perfectly for your arrival. Thank you so much for handling that so graciously. We would love to host you again next time you need a cabin getaway!

Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully appointed property River Solace was a secluded retreat designed for privacy, despite nearby neighbors. Quiet, cool, and shaded the forested cabin that is as cozy as it is cute. The river makes a perfect backdrop for river side meals and babbling brook ambience. The dogs enjoyed naps on the porch and watching the wildlife. We appreciated them having a fenced side yard for late night bathroom breaks. Our stay was very enjoyable!

River Solace

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Front porch & view of river fantastic. Very peaceful location. House was smaller than expected and a bit crowded on the interior but overall fairly comfortable. I have back issues and the mattress was much too soft for me. VERY small and low toilet so some difficulties there for an older person like me.

Beautiful River Cabin!!

Absolutely beautiful cabin overlooking the river! So peaceful and secluded, but still easy access to all Elijay has to offer. Communication was very thoughtful and everything was exactly as advertised (or better!) highly recommend.

The cabin was perfect as we celebrated my husband's birthday. Hot tub, pet friendly, gated fenced area for our boys (very helpful!). It was very cozy! The sound of the river added to the serenity.

Serene & dog friendly

Cabin and surrounding views were exactly as indicated in pictures and VRBO listing. It was very clean and even had some doggie amenities that were a nice surprise. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and hope to be back for a longer stay in the fall. PS: We recommend having a vehicle & driver that can climb up and down steep gravel roads.

Getaway along the stream

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful, immaculate cabin along a babbling stream. Very well-appointed including fluffy designer robes for the secluded hot tub. Had one day of anticipated rain which sounded wonderful on the roof. Did wish the fireplace was still active in May as the rain made it a bit 'raw' inside. HIGHLY recommend this cabin, perhaps our favorite of all time. Be prepared, you have a bit of a drive to reach it. Can't wait to return!

River Solace was perfect!

We had such a wonderful time at River Solace. We came for our honeymoon and left with so many great memories! The property was gorgeous and the cabin was so cute. We loved soaking in the hot tub and building a fire by the River. We will definitely be back! - The Binkley’s

Excellent girls trip!

The cabin and its proximity to the river were a total DREAM. One word of advice to travelers- the road to the cabin is rough. Come in an SUV or truck, and not in a low sitting car.

Peace and quiet

Listening to the birds, the sound of the river off the deck, and the neighbors were all quiet. Great place to decompress and breathe. Loved that a fenced yard space was available for our dog.

Beautiful river view

Had an amazing birthday up in the mountains. Got to see lots of deer from the cabin and ride up to cabin. Spent most of our time in north Carolina because of the rain. Definitely would rent again

Perfect for Two

We had such a good experience, great little place for two and even room enough for a couple of kids. We didn’t bring our pet, but we should have – great fenced-in yard, dog bed, and even a jar of doggie treats! Cell reception is so spotty, I wouldn’t rely on it. The position of the cabin is so close to the mountain river you can hear it! We loved staying there and will definitely be back!
