Lars, we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your vacation at the Fireside Lodge. It is a wonderful family cabin, with tons of room and it is ideally located, just minutes from downtown Ellijay and tons of hiking trails. I hope you had a chance to check out the new winery, "Roo", which is less than 5 minutes from the cabin, the views of the North Georgia Mountains are spectacular!! Definitely come back and stay with us again in the future.

Fantastic house, we absolutely loved the layout of the house. House was clean and beautiful, yard was great with my dog, and the privacy was excellent. Hot tub was used every day and worked perfectly. Our favorite part was the balcony view from the master bedroom. Close to town and vineyards. 100% will stay here again!!!

Fantastic mountain cabin getaway!

This place is wonderful! Two primary bedrooms with en suite bathrooms AND 2 other bedrooms, game room, porches, jacuzzi. It has everything you need for a wonderful vacation. Its peaceful and quiet. Highly recommend this place for any kind of mountain trip you might be planning. I stayed with just my husband, but this is a great place for a couple of families. The hosts are quick to respond and have tons of information about the cabin and things to do in the area.

Fireside Lodge

The cabin was absolutely beautiful! Exactly as shown on the website! It’s furnishings were much more of a home than your typical “cabin rental”. We were also delighted at how immaculate it was. We spent a lot of time just enjoying the grounds and wandering around town. We found everyone in Elijay warm and welcoming. We would not hesitate to stay again :-)

Linda, thank you so much for this fantastic review of your stay at the Fireside Lodge. It sounds like you had a great time both at the cabin and the area in general. I am not sure if you noticed the new winery, Roo, that was about 3 minutes from the cabin. It opened this past weekend and it is absolutely gorgeous!!

Great Mountain Vacation

We had the best time at this property! We had our two children and my in-laws for a total of 6. The cabin is well-equipped with everything you might need and we enjoyed being able to walk around the property in solitude. There’s a cute little creek nearby that my kids had a blast playing around. My husband was thoroughly impressed with the notes around the property providing info and detailed instructions.

Nice location

This house is in a very nice secluded area. The house is a little older, however it worked out really well for us. The hot tub needs attention as it was not really that clean. Loved the firepit area and the fireplace on the porch was a great place for our family to gather and relax. The washing machine needs some repairs. The town of Ellijay was amazing we really enjoyed the many stores and placed to eat.

Beautifully decorated, spacious cabin. Lots of bedroom/bathroom choices. Dog-friendly; appreciated being able to gate off the awesome porch, so pups could hang out with us. Not really a mountain-view from anywhere other than top floor. But secluded. Private. Lived it.

Gorgeous with a few issues

The property was gorgeous and well maintained. Anything we could have needed in the kitchen was available. The only problems were the upstairs ac unit was already filled with water and unusable without pulling out a manual. there were not enough towels to go around.
