This is a beautiful home. The views were amazing, and it was very comfortable and clean!We even saw a mother bear and three cubs walk right through the front yard. The home had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend.
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.
We had such a great time and what a lovely cabin to stay in. Couldn’t really have asked for better. Host was amazing and always returned my messages right away. Ellijay is an awesome town to stay in so much to do so much fun.
Clean, spacious, and great communicative hosts. The main event is by far the view of the mountains. Thanks for a great weekend!

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.

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.
Host allowed me to check in early which was nice. Overall cabin is good with a few minor repairs needed. View is beautiful and home is very comfortable. You will have all that is needed to cook with. Pool was very clean and kids loved it. I would look no further this is a nice stay. Thanks for a wonderful place to vacation in.
The cabin was very nice .. very comfortable beds.. very large family room.. the screened in porch was perfect and the view from the deck was gorgeous!! The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and pans needed for a big family meal !! The cabin was very close to town and many wonderful wineries!! We will definitely stay again next visit to Elijay Thank you for having us !!
Awesome cabin with amazing view! Really beautiful! And the beds actually had great mattresses! We enjoyed our weekend! Will definitely be coming back!
