The Cottage in the Woods was a well appointed cabin. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and especially appreciated the screened in porch. We liked that the kitchen, dining and living areas were joined so that we weren't cut off from each other.

Wonderful, Sweet Getaway

We had an amazing stay. It was just what we needed to unwind in a hectic world. We watched deer from the patios, cozied up on the couch and had a big kitchen to cook. Everything we needed for a home away from our home. We will be back.

Peaceful

This property is in a very quiet resort area. I think we saw two people in 3 days. House was very comfortable and just a short drive away from Elijay First time as a VRBO customer and process was very easy.

Charming cottage

We stay in Ellijay every year and this cabin is by far our favorite. The decor is charming and it is very well equipped. Christine was awesome and answered all of our questions quickly. We spent a lot of time visiting the winery’s in the area….Ott is especially nice. We enjoyed our stay so much we booked again for later in the year.
