About this property

Private 3Acre Mountain Retreat wFireplace. Wildlife, & Stunning Views

Wake up to breathtaking sunrises at Sky Island Lodge, a rustic yet comfortable 3-bedroom cabin perched on 3 private acres in the mountains of Ellijay. Designed for relaxation and connection, the home offers 2 queen beds and 1 twin, plus heating and AC to keep you comfortable year-round.

Cozy up by the stone fireplace, sip your morning coffee on the deck with sweeping views, or stargaze around the fire pit at night. The cabin is fully equipped with everyday comforts, including a bathroom with hair dryer for convenience, while still giving you the feeling of being tucked away in nature.

This is true mountain living: you may spot deer, wild turkeys, or even the occasional bear in the woods nearby. And for those who don’t want to unplug, we have you covered with high speed Fios, perfect for working remotely.

Just minutes away, you’ll find apple orchards, local wineries, hiking trails, waterfalls, and the charming shops and restaurants of downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Whether you’re tubing down the river, exploring scenic mountain overlooks, antiquing or enjoying seasonal festival like the Ellijay Apple Fest, there’s no shortage of ways to make your stay unforgettable.

About the host

Hosted by Kelly Loya

Host profile image
We are from Northern NY originally, moved to Florida but sure loved and missed the mountains and peace of mind we find in the woods. We love hiking, traveling and exploring, and are so excited to share this place with others who enjoy the same.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of the elevation, views, seclusion and proximity to so many fun activities like boating, hiking, kayaking, dining, antiquing, and wineries!

What makes this property unique

The mountain view, the amount of usable land on on the mountain, the enclosed porch, the full kitchen and the seclusion are what makes Sky Island stand out.
