Our stay here was everything we hoped for and more; it was a perfect space for a perfect week of R&R. The accommodations were excellent - the upstairs sleeping loft was like being in a tree house, as you looked out the windows; and the king size bed was incredibly comfortable. There are many spaces available throughout the property to relax and unwind and enjoy the beauty of nature. We spent the majority of our time on the screened in back porch watching and listening to the running creek and the birds; reading; watching the Fire flies and chatting. Some trout and shad were caught (and released) in the creek. We ventured out a few days, however we were content to rest and enjoy the cabin and its beautiful surroundings.Kathy has done an amazing job making the cabin comfortable, charming and well stocked; with a touch of whimsy. An FYI, the road approaching the cabin is gravel and the driveway has some incline to it - we managed fine, with good weather, in a front wheel drive Rogue. We look forward to returning again.

Perfect getaway! We stay in cabins often and this was a favorite. Kitchen was stocked with everything we could possibly need, beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. Recliners were amazing. We loved sitting on the screened in porch listening to and watching the river. The owners obviously care about their guests and their comfort. Thanks for a wonderful getaway!

Cozy mountain cabin. Close to the creek. We slept with the doors open to enjoy the "creek music". The cabin is well appointed. We cooked a few meals there during our stay. Reece's cider house is close by as are a few vineyards. We hiked Amicolola Falls which is a short drive away. We were too early for fall colors, but should be amazing in a few weeks. We are already looking forward to a return trip.

Thank you for sharing your cabin with us, we absolutely loved it! The cabin is beautiful, charming decor, well stocked, etc. The location is awesome, the sound of running water greets you as you step out of the vehicle. It draws you around to the back to see the waterfront source prior to even stepping foot into the cabin. Very peaceful and relaxing trip! My husband says this one is his choice for our return trips, which we try to do each fall. I have to say I agree with his choice! Thanks again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was better than described (not that the owner didn't do a great job). Everything was just as stated but the cleanliness was among the best I have ever seen. The river was clear and I saw some of the biggest trout I have ever seen for this area. My wife and I like to go to different places and we seldom return to a place we have stayed before but we have both decided to go back here! Loved it!

The cabin ‘s location is ideal for exploring the Ellijay area . We really enjoyed relaxing on the porch listening to the water flow. The hosts provided so many wonderful and thoughtful touches. It really is a magical place Don’t miss the fairy garden in the stump by the stream .

Perfect private getaway

I have to say this is the most stunning, private and peaceful cabin that I have ever stayed in. The access was easy. The accommodations were fully stocked and the cabin is right on the creek/stream. The views are absolutely breathtaking. By far. This is one of the best rentals I have ever stayed at!

The cabin was phenomenal! To enjoy the creek from the spacious screened porch was wonderful. The fire pit was definitely an asset as well. Our girls weekend was October. The only challenge was the driveway. It would help to have it marked better because it is a bit of a journey through the woods to get to the cabin. It’s well worth the effort, but directional arrows or something to let you know you are on track would be so helpful. 4 wheel drive isn’t necessary but would be helpful as well. We loved our stay and would go back again (even if the driveway doesn’t get marked)!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Slavico

Host profile image
We work and live in a community that has a lot of hustle and bustle and were looking for a place to get away. We purchased this property sight unseen other than a video from our Realtor. The sound of the creek sold my husband and the beauty of the log cabin sold me. We have been blessed with this beautiful place and enjoy sharing it with others.

What makes this property unique

This property is in just the right location. Far enough out to be in the woods and enjoy wildlife, but yet, close enough for shopping, hiking water falls, mountain views, apple barns, wineries and water sports. The Tickanetley Creek is full of trout!
Sit on the porch or open the doors and listen to the water all day and night. The cabin is fully furnished including a complete kitchen with dishes and pots and pans. There’s also a washer and dryer. As the owner I clean the cabin myself. It’s very clean!
