We had an amazing stay! The neighborhood was quite and family friendly. The house was very comfy and had all the amenities we needed. We loved sitting on the screened in porch and watching all the birds at the river. We would definitely come back for another visit!
Beautiful setting. Nice relaxing river views, comfortable outdoor sittings spaces. Cabin was charming, clean and well maintained. Would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful property, accurately described in listing. Ease of dealing with PO’s is exceptional. This was our 2nd time staying and we will be back. The ease to downtown Ellijay is exceptional. Pool also is minutes away. Great place!
Wonderful cabin! Super welcoming hosts. It was clean & cozy. Will definitely recommend to others!
Cabin was super clean & cozy. Hosts were very accommodating. Hot tub was very relaxing as was sitting down by the river. We rented the Ranger & cruised around the resort. Had a picnic at Fish Trap Park. It was a wonderful time.

We had the best time here!!The owner was spectacular and was very kind!!We are planning on renting again in future!My family enjoyed the beautiful house and the waterfront view!Ty Michael for ur genuine great customer service!!
This time I talked the whole family into joining me. We really enjoyed the view, the quiet, and the kitchen. The hot tub was fun and riding the Ranger was the best!
We loved everything about this place. There was so much to do at the house and the rental of the side by side was an added bonus. It gave us the opportunity to explore the beautiful resorts and its
parks.
Great host and cozy cabin close to town. We will definitely be renting this one again.
parks.
The cabin provided everything we needed and them some! The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, the hot top was relaxing, and the outdoor fire pit was just what we needed to unwind.
Thanks for a lovely stay!
The cabin was beautifully furnished and had everything we needed. We loved the landscape in the backyard. It is easy to walk to the river. We loved roasting hot dogs & marshmallows on the fire pit & eating outside.
Our family of six enjoyed our stay. We really enjoyed tubing on the river. My children loved the amount of deer that we saw every day. It was very relaxing. Owner was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with.
Everything was perfect at the Knotty Pine. Personalized for our stay. More than enough room for our family of 5. The cabin is easy to find. Absolutely no complaints!! Hope to stay again soon.
Fantastic property. Cute cabin right on the Coosawattee river. Michael is a really nice guy who goes above and beyond to ensure his guests are taken care of. We had plenty of room for our stay with 2 adults and 4 teens. The Coosawattee River Resort has plenty to do like fishing, tubing or going to the pool or rec center. There are wineries, apple orchards, hiking trails, waterfalls etc within a short drive. You will love your stay here.
Perfect place for family getaway. Had everything we needed plus more. Coffee in morning on back deck overlooking river. We’ll be back with kayaks this summer.

Great having you Jo Ann! We are always making improvements to The Knotty Pine, should have "The Shed" opened up this summer for more enjoyment, we look forward to having you back!
This was exactly what we wanted and we needed. The community is amazing, the house and location had everything that we needed and we were able to relax, unwind and just enjoy each other. We would definitely stay here again.
The hosts are amazing and some of the best hosts we’ve ever worked with.
We loved our stay in the Knotty Pine. It was super clean and cozy. Had everything you could think of needing. My son loved fishing the river and watching tv from the hot tub! Loved seeing deer from the front porch. Would def recommend staying here and we hope to visit again in the fall :)
