We spent over two weeks at this rental. I do not have enough space to write all the reasons to stay at this rental because this was, in fact, our favorite rental so far. The house is more beautiful than the pictures and better than the description.
My husband and I traveled with our two boys, ages 13 and 10, to Ellijay, GA. We all agreed that this rental was the best we have stayed at.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by one of the many deer that roam throughout the neighborhood. The house is so peaceful and beautiful with many decks and windows. You feel like you are on a vacation in the woods.
We did most of our cooking in the amazing kitchen with the high end appliances. There are plenty of pans and cooking tools, plus, there were spices, condiments and coffee to get you started. We prepared most of our meals at the rental. Ingles, Walmart and Food Lion are all close to pick up any groceries you need. We did eat out a few meals and they were delicious. There are many sit down and fast food restaurants within 10 minutes of the rental.
The beds are very comfortable and there are plenty of extra pillows. We were all able to unpack and just relax. We all agreed that the lower level was our favorite place. Whether we were lifting weights or doing a You Tube workout video, or playing video games, foosball, darts, connect four, sitting in the hot tub, or roasting smores over the fire, we made the most incredible memories as a family. The hardest part was leaving to return home!
We spent many days at the Riverside pool, playing and relaxing in the sun. We would pack a cooler with snacks, drinks and our lunch and spend hours just playing. There are also many activities close including apple orchards, hiking trails, a pinball and bigfoot museum, just to name a few. We also spent quite a few days fishing in the small pond close to the rental. So if you want to be active, there is plenty to do, and if you just want to rest, this is also the place!
The owner was incredible to work with. One evening a severe storm moved through the area and he sent us a text to ensure we were safe. That night the power went out and the owner had flashlights with fresh batteries ready for us to use. We spent the evening playing board games and eating snacks by flashlight. Our boys loved the adventure and my husband and I appreciated the care and concern from the owner.
Do not hesitate to reserve this rental!
First visit to the area from Bham Al and I must say for the price I’m not sure you could get any better accommodations and comfort. Jeff was our property contact and helped tremendously with the result being a painless trip. All the comforts of home are included so literally, you could bring a change of clothes and a few groceries and need nothing else! Thanks!! We will be back.

All the amenities of home plus some! We had a great time and we will be back!
My family had an amazing time staying at the cabin! It is pretty hard to entertain 2 children, however the cabin and resort offered many amenities that kept us all busy! The basement was a huge hit, full of arcade games, table top games, the Wii, and board games! We will definitely be returning! The cabin was amazing and was fully stocked with everything that we could have needed from kitchenware to bedding and linens! Jeff was amazing and quickly responded to any questions we had!
