About this property
Private - Creekside - Cabin + Hot Tub/Pool Table & Pet Friendly
This 3,015-square-foot Veteran-owned pet friendly home offers friends and family a beautifully appointed interior, featuring a terrace-level game room with arcade games and pool table, 3 furnished decks with creekside views, a private hot tub, and a fire pit!
Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Loft: Twin/Full bunk Bed w/Full trundle & Separate Twin, & pullout sofa in game room.
‘Big Creek Retreat’ will be your home-to get-away-from-home. Spend your days relaxing on the banks of Big Creek and your evenings lounging on one of 3 furnished decks. Together with your family, listen to the sounds of the creek and take in the serenity of the surrounding forest.
Begin each day sipping your morning coffee or tea on one of the private decks or in the living room as the space slowly fills with the morning sunlight. The inviting living room boasts vaulted ceilings, a flat-screen cable TV, and a stone electric fireplace that’s perfect for those chilly mountain evenings!
After exploring the hiking trail or wading in the creek, prepare lunch for the group in the fully equipped kitchen, fitted with a 4-burner gas stove, spacious countertops, cooking utensils, an island with seating for 4, and a dining table with seating for 6. Following lunch, you can visit a local vineyard or apple orchard or stay in for a game of pool or arcade games in the game room.
Prepare your favorite dinner on the gas grill while sipping on your favorite cocktail. There is plenty of seating to accommodate your entire group. There is no better way to finish off a peaceful day than roasting s’mores around the fire pit or soaking in the private hot tub. Be sure to gaze up at the star-filled sky!
When those eyes get heavy, sleep well in one of the 3 comfortably furnished bedrooms and loft.

Frequently asked questions
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.
