We had a great time! House was nice and had all we needed, clean and comfy!! We loved sitting on the deck and our pups could be on the deck also without running away. Listening to the rover was wonderful! Well definitely book it again. Great restaurants in Ellijay and we love Reece’s Cider company.

Great birthday weekend

This cabin was just perfect for our needs. We had a great weekend and loved being on the river. A couple of things to be aware of is that there is no closet space in one of the bedrooms and you can not see the river from the hot tub. I wish the would change that.

Mountain getaway

Cozy cabin on the river. Well appointed with all the necessities. Firepit and deck with chairs were very nice while listening to the water. It would be great if a table was available. This cabin is poorly lit on the exterior. There was a light post that didn’t work. There were stair lights that didn’t work going down to the river. Hot tub did not work. Washer was dirty with sand/gravel residue.

Great trip!

Well stocked home with so many extras! The hot tub was perfect temperature and super clean. We do wish the cover of the hot tub flipped the opposite way so we could enjoy the River view (just a suggestion to the owners). Happy with our choice and hope to go back one day!

Perfect Escape

This cozy cabin was perfect for a 3 day weekend getaway! The hot tub was so enjoyable during the cold winter nights! And the beds were incredibly comfortable! The cabin was very clean & easy to relax in! We brought our puppy since it’s dog friendly but you really couldn’t tell other dogs may have been there! Highly recommended!
