We had a awesome stay! The cabin was so well done.
The home is beautiful! Everything we needed was provided, questions for the owner were promptly answered, and there was plenty of room. We loved feeding the deer!

I wish I had booked more days so we had time to take advantage of all the amenities. The owners thought of everything! The kitchen was equipped to actually cook for a family, and there were nice little details they thought of as well, such as small laterns around the house in case the power went out. Would definitely book again.

We had an amazing time on our spring break vacation. We are only a family of 3, but we have a 16 year old teen who enjoyed having her own space in the lower level gameroom. My husband and I enjoyed the hot tub and firepit to relax. It was a short ride to downtown Ellijay, and we also took a few trips to Blue Ridge to the downtown area and Mercier's. Amicalola Falls is not too far and also an amazing experience. We had some friends who visited the area recently, and recommended visiting Helen, and though it was a little bit of a drive, it was so much fun. Lots of shopping and the mountain coaster was so cool. There was a lot of space in the cabin for a much larger family, and so much in the community for families to enjoy. Highly recommend Lightning Bug Lodge.

This cabin was great for our family. Great size for four adults and two kids. The game room kept us occupied for hours! It was great for our elementary aged kids. Overall, the home is very nice. It had a comfortable feel. Great amenities. I love the location. It’s very close to downtown and Walmart/Ingles.
