The cabin was clean and comfortable and the location was perfect for the purpose of this trip which was to relax and enjoy a quiet area. The beautiful views and sounds of the river was the perfect backdrop and the cabin was close enough to groceries and downtown Ellijay without losing the rustic appeal. We would love to book this again in the summer!

Quiet relaxing weekend!

We loved our stay here! It was quiet and peaceful which is exactly what we were looking for. The only downside or warning I would give is for people that get carsick easily. The drive to the house past the gate is extremely curvy and hilly. But once you arrive at the house it makes it all worth it!! We will definitely be back.

Loved the stream, fire pit, porch swing, deer and Canadian geese. The very narrow winding road to the cabin was a bit nerve wracking. Beautiful area for a much needed get away.
