Another Wonderful Stay!

This was our 5th stay at this beautiful rental that feels like home to us. Location is beautiful and relaxing. Love sitting on the deck over the creek and fires in the firepit. Home is comfortable and clean. Kitchen is well stocked and has every small appliance you could possibly need. Will definitely return - as this is now a yearly destination for us. Highly recommend!

This is a beautiful cabin in an even more beautiful location. Cabin was decorated to perfection. Could have spent a week just setting on the deck watching and listening to creek. If we ever decide to go back to this area this is where we will stay.

Beautiful home, great location

This was the perfect home for our north Georgia vacation! The location was easily accessible, in a quiet area and close to everything we needed. The home had everything we needed and more, and was very clean. We felt right at home! We also appreciated the large deck and gated outdoor area.

This was truly the perfect place to relax and unwind! The view is gorgeous, the home is gorgeous, the sound of the creek rushing over the waters was so peaceful, and it is only a short drive to the town of Ellijay. Truly the perfect getaway!
