Cabin was exactly as described and made for an amazing weekend for myself, my husband and our two dogs. Loved being able to hear the river from the cabin/deck and sitting by the fire pit down below. We will be back!

The sound of the river was so relaxing, we spent so much time on the porch and by the river. Our dogs were in heaven!! The hot tub was amazing,everything was just perfect. The ONLY drawback was the long sstaircase from the house to the river, but overall it was worth it- definitely recommend!!

Creek-bluff cabin

Wonderful little cabin overlooking the Elijay River. Several cabins nearby and one in view, but not intrusive and still felt secluded. Dog yard is small but adequate. Higher energy pups would appreciate a stroll down the road or to the creek and back. The Elijay River was a perfect temperature and flow for summer relaxation. I would definitely book again.

Beautiful cottage - very clean - the steps to creek are very slippery - Everything was wonderful - a little too much furniture in a small space -

The back porch was a lovely place to sit with a cup of hot tea and breakfast, listening to the rushing water below. The furniture was comfortable, the cabin was very clean, and had everything we needed.

Great getaway!

Great house on beautiful Ellijay River. Be prepared to decend/ascend a lot of steps (as listed). The river sound is very relaxing and pretty from the porch. The road back crosses a creek. An old fashioned wooden bridge or drive through the creek to the side (required for trucks). Its rough at times. Take your time. We were really sad to leave!

The 90 steps down to the river is worth it for the amazing view of the water. There is a 10min drive up a gravel only road so be prepared.

Again, very convenient for pets!

Great views, cozy cabin

We were a little surprised at how "cozy" this cabin was, the pictures make it seem a little bigger but, the view, the hot tub, the sound of the cascading water made up for that instantly. Super clean, washer and dryer with detergent pods, dishwasher, microwave, even coffee and filers. Incredibly pet friendly (we did not have our dogs this time but we sure will next time) with a little fenced area for safe potty time, a dog bed, bowls and treats provided! Great little getaway close to Blue Ridge and even closer to downtown Ellijay. We hit a pop up farmer's market. If you're going out to eat make sure you go to The Rooftop restaurant. A relaxing stay.
