The cabin is awesome! The front porch swing was the favorite. Being able to see the stars a night and the amazing sunsets. Just the relaxing getaway we both needed.

Perfect Getaway!!
The place was perfect! Everything was just as the listing showed. No surprises. The only thing was the wall unit for Heating and Air Conditioning operation was convoluted and it was not functioning well at all. This was on the top and the bottom floor. Glad for snuggling and warmer weather in November. I can only imagine being there in the summer GA Heat. The owners instructions were pretty straightforward. The place was great otherwise!!

Cute cabin!
We really enjoyed our stay here! Far enough from town to enjoy nature but close enough to be able to soak in Ellijay! We even saw a mama bear and a cub from the back porch!!
The only thing I was thrown off by was there is a cabin in the front yard basically and you share a driveway. Wasn’t expecting that but we definitely had a great time!

Incredible Cabin in the Woods
What an adorable place. We were fortunate to have stayed here a month! We need a place while we looked for our forever home! Host were outstanding and prompt with answers to our questions! We saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed our daily walks around the neighborhood. Best part of all was that we could bring our dog with us! Peaceful, comfortable and just what we needed after selling our home in Florida.

Great place near Elijay to stay
We loved this place. We go to north GA every year for apple season and this place was near every place we go. Cabin has everything you need. Very clean. Hope to go back next year. Thanks for having us.

Great place for a couples getaway who wish to take their dog
Renting the property was very easy, and the property is very accommodating. It sits at the end of a dirt driveway with only one other home. It’s secluded and very peaceful.

Family trip to parks
The rental is adorable and has lovely decorations. The porch is great, my son loved swinging on it after hiking each day. My daughter loved that it was so cute. It did need a coffee table since there isn't room for a kitchen table. Otherwise it was a great stay and I would recommend.

Cozy and secluded
A very nicely appointed cozy cabin far from the maddening crowd. Dog friendly for sure - even has extra leashes, bowls and milk bones to share. The tub is fun but really not too practical if you like a leisurely shower. Comfy bed with a separate a/c unit which we appreciated as we like it cold. The porch swing is great. A couple TV trays or tables would be nice as there is no table for eating. Close to Ellijay but far enough away to feel in the middle of nowhere. More than met our needs.

Lovely, quiet stay
The cabin is exactly as advertised. Enjoyed the front porch every day after exploring Ellijay and surrounding towns. Cabin is remote, so very peaceful environment. The booking warns you that you need a vehicle that can handle some rough roads. You definitely do, but we had the right truck, and the roads were no problem. Would definitely like to return in the future.

Perfect getaway
We walked around the whole neighborhood to explore and loved it! There are two communal areas around a lake which are kept very clean. The house is about 15 minutes from town. We really enjoyed our time there!
