Absolutely amazing stay at Almost Heaven. From the amazing kitchen to the rolling creek out back, the property was ideal! Not only for us humans, but my pups loved all the special pet friendly items for them as well.

Another Wonderful Stay!
This was our 5th stay at this beautiful rental that feels like home to us. Location is beautiful and relaxing. Love sitting on the deck over the creek and fires in the firepit. Home is comfortable and clean. Kitchen is well stocked and has every small appliance you could possibly need. Will definitely return - as this is now a yearly destination for us. Highly recommend!
Fantastic property, we thoroughly enjoyed the home and the waterside sitting area. Creek was gorgeous. Home was clean and had everything we needed and more. Loved it!
Very peaceful by the stream. House was very well appointed and comfortable. Close to offer short day trips and relaxing evenings. We loved this place and will be back.
Beautiful cabin with breathtaking view of babbling brook. Offered every amenity desired, including treats for our fur babies. We'll definitely be back.

Beautiful home, great location
This was the perfect home for our north Georgia vacation! The location was easily accessible, in a quiet area and close to everything we needed. The home had everything we needed and more, and was very clean. We felt right at home! We also appreciated the large deck and gated outdoor area.
This is a beautiful cabin in an even more beautiful location. Cabin was decorated to perfection. Could have spent a week just setting on the deck watching and listening to creek. If we ever decide to go back to this area this is where we will stay.

Almost Heaven
From the minute we arrived and saw the beautiful house and the creek in the backyard, we were in awe. Couldn't have asked for a better getaway.
This was truly the perfect place to relax and unwind! The view is gorgeous, the home is gorgeous, the sound of the creek rushing over the waters was so peaceful, and it is only a short drive to the town of Ellijay. Truly the perfect getaway!
Modern design, clean/fresh, nicely decorated & furnished with all the essentials plus more in a relaxing mountain setting with the sound of a rushing stream… we will return!
Must add: our pup thoroughly enjoyed the deck and fenced yard
This place was amazing. We stayed for thanksgiving and it was as beautifully decorated. Everything was well thought out. We didn’t need to leave to go get anything. Absolutely perfect.
This property was very clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The rural neighborhood was very safe and friendly. And the deer were so enjoyable to watch as they criss-crossed the surround area. Thanks for a lovely time.
Wonderful in every way! The only problem we had was opening the bear proof garbage can. We left our bags of trash in the kitchen since the bear proof can was also human proof!!
We loved our stay so much. that we already decided to come back very soon. Everything was perfect! The house, the outside, the area and correspondence with our guest contact .. Everything you need, is close by and the drive up to the property is easy.
This is our third visit to this beautiful cabin & we’ll be back again. Clean, well-stocked with many thoughtful extras, comfy beds, beautiful decor…. & a ringside seat to nature… what’s not to love 💕
