Beautiful view. If peace and quiet are what you are looking for, this is the place. Enjoyed morning breakfast and coffee on the deck. Lunch and dinner on the screened porch with breeze blowing, quite nice. Evening sky was the best.

The cabin was very clean and spacious. The view from the back porch is breathtaking. The little extra amenities were appreciated. The hot tub was very nice with a view! Very close to downtown Ellijay. We would stay here again.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The view was amazing! We enjoyed the openness of the main living area and the large porch with fireplace was very comfortable. There are areas that need some attention, improvement and deep cleaning such the bathrooms and hot tub area and deck. Since it is a dog friendly cabin, there is a noticeable odor. Overall, we did enjoy our stay mostly because of the view.

The host was extremely communicative which was great. The view was better than expected. The house is organized in a very nice way with great furniture. The drive up to the cabin can be a bit steep, but it is all paved except the driveway itself.

Overall this is a delightful property: just as described, cozy, plenty of room for us all, truly wonderful screen room with a great view and a lovely firepit. The kitchen had everything we could need and that king bed is amazingly comfortable. Our furry friends felt very welcome and loved watching the wildlife from the fenced in deck - and theres a small bonus fenced relief area for them. We had a few minor issues and the contact was great at communicating.
