Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice cabin, beautiful location on the river. One lane, hard pack gravel to get there. The directions were spot on. In places, if a car going the opposite direction was there, someone would have to back up. A bit challenging at times, but I would highly recommend the property. Lots of deer!!

Panaromic Mountain Calm

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: After navigating the trail to the property, we were pleasantly surprised to see the property. The property is very well maintained and provided all the necessities to have an enjoyable and relaxing stay. We were able to enjoy the peace and quiet of the area, take in the flowing river and be greeted one morning by several deer coming by to get their morning drink of the cool clear waters.We ventured out to visit the orchards and city surroundings. The quiet and orderly movement throughout the city was a pleasant way to spend several hours. We also visited Ellijay Wood Fired Pizza to enjoy unique a pizza and drink while in the city.We were one of three couples that traveled to Sliding Rock with the express purpose of enjoying the quiet atmosphere while allowing us to get together daily to have breakfast and play cards together. An enjoyable time, look forward to being able to do this again.

Relaxing getaway

The view of the river and soundscape is exquisite. The rushing water is calming and there are multiple places to sit and enjoy the view. The cabin itself serves it's purpose.

Quiet Getaway

Great property on a wonderful lazy creek bed. Loved the view. Very clean and well kept and perfect instructions on how to reach the property. It was a windy, hilly gravel road but accessible. We had a wonderful weekend.

Charming cabin

This was a very charming cabin, with every amenity we wanted. The location was great and we really enjoyed the river. However, due to our ages (69 & 81) we could travel the road leading to the cabin. The upside is, we had a very relaxing 4 days, and we spent quality time with our rescue dog, Zoey.
