Neighborhood:
The Property is in Coosawattee River Resort which is a 5,500 acre, gated community and nature preserve in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains in Ellijay, GA. Ellijay is the Apple and Mountain bike capital of Georgia with endless activities to enjoy! Many deer call the neighborhood home and I can almost guarantee you will see them in their natural habitat each day!
It also offers many amenities for free! Your Stay includes access to all 5 parks, access to the River tubing (tube not included) and rope swing, Picnic Area with Charcoal BBQ Grills, fishing pond (No License required), Fenced in Doggy park area (Large and Small dog separation).
They also offer a number of paid amenities: Indoor (heated)/outdoor pools, mini golf, pickle-ball, basketball and tennis courts, workout room (weights, exercise bike, elliptical, treadmill), and arcade w/ pool table, ping pong, air hockey and arcade games. The cost is $5 per person/day for an Adventure Pass which grants you access to all of the above for the entire day. I would recommend a day at the pool followed by a round of mini golf in the early evening! Passes can be purchased prior to stay and delivered to the home prior to your arrival or can be purchased at the HOA office M-Sat 9-5pm

About the host
Hosted by Linda Stracener
I grew up in California and moved to the Virgin Islands after graduating from San Diego State, where I met my husband Vince. We ran a charterboat (think "Below Deck", but not quite as big), for 27 years! We currently reside in Bonita Springs Fl. Hospitality and vacationing is in our blood. Captain Vince was a dive instructor and a remarkable sailor. Perfecting meals in the galley was my talent along with underwater photography. With family in North Georgia, we thought of no other place than Ellijay to share our next "vacation destination" with others. We also enjoy our time in SW Florida when we feel the need for heat! Recently retired, we travel in our "land yacht" while away. Please enjoy your stay "weather" it be spring, summer, winter or fall!
Why they chose this property
We have family that live in the area and fell in love with it when we visited so we decided to get a place of our own to share with our growing family and with others when we cannot stay ourselves!
What makes this property unique
It is one of the few properties in the area that is actually walking distance to the river, the dog parks, AND outdoor pool. Location is the best in the area!
