Great stay!

The house was perfect for a group of four. We also had our four small dogs (note the front porch railing slots were wide enough that a small dog could fit through.) Very comfortable beds, clean and well stocked. We had a few issues with the hot tub jets and temps but still a lovely place.

We loved the view of the river, the cabin was clean and comfortable, and the extra attention to pets was awesome! Literally our ONLY complaint is the extremely rough gravel road leading to the cabin. We both had aching backs and necks from it, and that was with us driving very slowly. There’s a sign going onto the road that asks for donations to maintain the road…. All the owners really need to improve the drive. We understand that rain and snow will definitely cause ruts, we lived in the country on gravel roads for most of our marriage. But that can be repaired every year with proper maintenance. As much as we loved the cabin, we won’t be staying there again just because of the rough road and the way it gave me headaches and my husband a back ache.

Everything from sending you your paperwork to using all amenities was so user friendly.

The cleaning crew had everything set up so lovely for us, all amenities were so easy to use and they had a book that covered any question you could have. We enjoyed our 43 anniversary at the beautiful place right on the river.

Relaxing get away

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: The property had a recent upgrade to the fire pit area, walkways to the front and fenced in yard, exterior fireplace and a lovely slate step down to the river - so even better than the pictures! The cabin was just as pictured-clean and well maintained.the property managers were friendly, responsive and a joy to work with. Sitting on the porch overlooking the river is the most relaxing experience. We basically stayed around the cabin enjoying the view and walks around the neighborhood. We saw deer next to our cabin everyday. I would highly recommend this cabin and company. Pet friendly-above and beyond!

Excellent Getaway

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. It was nice being secluded without being too far away from civilization. The drive to get to the cabin was a little daunting at first, but we got used to it. The nearby town of Ellijay has a very active downtown area filled with restaurants and small shops. We would definitely visit again.

Last Minute Get Away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We booked a last-minute getaway at Cherokee Shoals Cabin for some trout fishing along the river, and it exceeded all our expectations. The reservation process was seamless, with clear, detailed directions provided promptly, making it easy to find the cabin.Upon arrival, we were thrilled with the location—right on the river’s edge. Sitting in the rockers on the porch, listening to the water rush by, was pure bliss. The steps leading directly into the river made fishing incredibly convenient. Though neighboring cabins are nearby, they’re spaced far enough to ensure privacy.The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped. Our group of four, plus two dogs, had plenty of space without feeling cramped. The owners thought of everything for our furry friends, providing sheets to cover furniture, bowls, towels, and even a dog bed. Cooking on the gas grill and dining on the screened-in porch was a highlight, as was relaxing in the hot tub after a day of fishing. We also loved gathering around the fire pit for s’mores and playing pool in the upstairs game room.Cherokee Shoals Cabin was the perfect retreat, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommend for a relaxing, riverfront getaway!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was wonderful. The location is perfect, right in between Ellijay and Blue Ridge. The cabin is quiet, tucked away and nestled right on the river. We had a lot of deer who visited throughout the day which was a treat. I could even tell my dog was more relaxed than usual. We can't wait to go back!

Relaxing Waterfront Getaway

Each day started with breakfast on the porch while listening to the relaxing waterfront sounds of moving water over the rocks. The cabin is nestled in the woods with nature all around so enjoy the deer that come down for water and the squirrels that you can see playing in the trees. Our 2 dogs also accompanied us on the trip and the cabin is very pet friendly. There is an outside fenced area for them to run with access directly from the screened in porch. For those looking for a secluded cabin for a relaxing time, this cabin is a jewel.
