Cozy! The weather was cold, stormy, then perfect. The cabin suited us every day. The fireplace was wonderful on the cold and stormy days. We had a very pleasant stay. The cabin had everything we needed.
There is zero cell service here, except for one corner of the patio where I got one bar. Normally, this would be a complaint, but it's exactly what I needed from this vacation. No choice but to disconnect and read a book by the fire. Wonderful weekend.
Cabin was one of the best I have rented. Appreciate all of the attention to detail with all of the extras.. Location was great for excursions to all of North Georgia’s mountains. Your cleaning crew is top notch. Thank you for a great week.
We loved staying here. The stream was so calming to listen to! The house is only about 10 mins from town, So it was very convenient. The stairs are pretty steep for the basement bedroom. But other than that we really loved the cabin!!
Great location! Short drive to Blue Ridge and Ellijay. Property is secluded and very quiet located right on a creek. Cabin was very clean and has everything you will need for your stay.
We absolutely feel in love with this property! Immaculately clean and everything provided. It was spacious and private. The ghost was very gracious and easy to work with. Replies were received in a timely manner when messaged. The setting was absolutely wonderful with the sound of the water and the peacefulness. Definitely one to "do over".
Nice relaxing cabin in a quiet area. It's a climb down the to creek, but the sound of rushing water is nice, and you can sit on a bench just above the edge of the creek. Nice decks to hang out on that are covered and plenty of amenities in the kitchen.
We really enjoyed this cabin, we loved the deck and fire pit area and being able to grill and eat dinner outside even in the rain without getting wet. The cabin was well stocked with toilet paper and soaps, dish detergent, laundry supplies and towels
We vacationed at this property this week with our son and daughter-in-law, as well as their month-old infant, and we all enjoyed the stay. With comfy beds, decks (with loungers!) on both floors, a grill, a fire pit, and the sound of the rushing water, it's exactly what we needed. Oh, and the place was super clean! I can gladly recommend it!
Thank you Eddie for our week in the mountains. It was warm, comfy and beautiful real close to town and stores. I will definitely recommend to my friends and family.
Cabin was very cozy and extremely well furnished. I've stayed in hundreds of cabins and love the way the owner leaves items in the cabinets for use. That is a A+++++ as we left several items in return. Cabin is very well located and close to Blue Ridge, clean and had very nice scenery. If you're looking for a nice priced cozy getaway, you can't go wrong with this cabin!!!!!

Exactly what we needed
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was very accommodating and warm and exactly what we needed for our family. We drove to Atlanta for a day but we would have been just as happy to stay at the cabin the entire time. The location was great and very relaxing! The homeowners were very helpful and accessible. We hope to visit her again soon.
We were very pleased with the home and its location. The serene, secluded property in the woods is very private even though neighbors are nearby. It was the exact setting needed to relax! Our time there was short and we are already looking forward to when we might be able to get away and come back for a longer stay! It is close enough to restaurants and shops to be there in under 15 minutes. The house was clean and well-maintained. It is also equipped with all the necessities. There a 2 decks. The lower deck has gates to enter and exit to the property and to keep pets safely enclosed when needed. Thanks for a wonderful getaway!
My husband and I just spent a week here with another couple, their 17 yr old son, and our dogs. The home was cute and cozy, and it had everything we needed. There was ample space for us, and we loved the small touches that the cabin had. We were able to make our meals, and even the pots and pans were in good condition, which is rare in most of the places we've stayed. Bonus, they have both a coffee maker and Keurig!
We did have a few concerns, which is in no way a reflection of the cabin itself and owners.
1. Cleanliness - while everything appeared clean on the surface, everytime a dog toy went under one of the (lifted) beds or chair, we pulled out what looked like another creature with the toy. In addition, on the smaller bed downstairs we found 2 blood pressure pills. While we get not remaking an unused bed, simply running a hand over the bed would have found the pills. There are also dead and live bees in the light just above the beds downstairs.
2. Beware of the neighbor across the creek. He claims to own the whole section of the creek, stating you can't fish there, which isn't true.
3. When walking the dogs off the property, be
aware of drivers flying down the dirt road.
None of the concens negatively impacted our trip. We really evjoyed our stay and would recommend the cabin.
