Cabin was super clean & cozy. Hosts were very accommodating. Hot tub was very relaxing as was sitting down by the river. We rented the Ranger & cruised around the resort. Had a picnic at Fish Trap Park. It was a wonderful time.

Great Place to Get Away

Great home with great hosts. The Knotty Pine had everything we needed for our vacation. The hosts are amazing! The one small thing we had to get past was having to check in with security every time we would leave. That is a small inconvenience vs how nice the property was.

Exceeded Expectations

The family absolutely loved it!!! If anything the owners undersell this place. Truly is a hidden gem. Kids and adults of all ages will have a great time here. Summer wouldve been even better with the river right behind. And communication with the owners was better than any of our previous stays on vrbo. If youre looking for a place in the Ga mountains...This is it!!!

Great Place

My wife and I stayed here for a week in April. The owners were very helpful through the entire process and made sure that we had all the information we needed. The cabin was very easy to get to with all paved roads and the driveway was also very easy to get in and out of. The cabin was very clean and the perfect size for us. We enjoyed our morning coffee and afternoons on the back porch watching the deer eat and watching all the birds and squirrels. At one point there were 14 deer eating. Make sure that you get some deer corn (Walmart in town has some) and put some out in the mornings and afternoon. After a few days the deer will be waiting for you. We also enjoyed the Ranger. We rented it for the entire week but because of the weather we were only able to use it for one day. Overall it was a very enjoyable stay at the cabin and we will be staying here again if in the area.

Must do with kids!

We had a blast at the cabin, my kids (4 and 6) didn’t want to leave! So many cool things to do and would love to return in the summer. The Kincaids were very accommodating and helpful. Memories were made and will never be erased.

Home Away from Home

This place is fantastic, and I highly recommend it. We absolutely loved it, from the hot tub to the ATV to all the deer we saw everywhere! It’s in a neighborhood, yet it’s still very quiet. We felt very safe as well. It is spacious and clean, and stocked full of more than you will even need! The host was very responsive and kind. We will happily return to this beautiful cabin in the woods whose pictures do not even do it justice! Oh and the popcorn machine was a huge hit with my teenagers! 😊

Fabulous Thanksgiving Family Vacay

From the moment we walked in we felt very warmly welcomed from the cozy little sign, the music that was playing to the decorations in the cabin. Our family felt very at home during our traditional annual Thanksgiving vacay! The amenities included were fabulous to include (and not limited to) the golf cart for use (addt. cost which we were happy to pay), hot tub, fire pit, fire logs, plenty of warmers, water front seating, access to the facilities as well. We were unable to use the water floats n such as weather did not allow, but the fire pit and warmers were perfect for evening fires with smores and morning coffee on the deck. The golf cart was incredible fun at all hours of the day to enjoy adventures throughout the Cosawattee River Resort. Communication with owners throughout our stay was on pointe even when they had to give us unusual news and alert us there was a loose kangaroo to be on the lookout for that happened to escape from a local refuge... we exchange comical messages.

Great stay at the knotty pine

We had a great time at the knotty pine. Cabin and property is really nice. Plenty of amenities in the cabin and on the property itself. Cruising around in the Polaris is worth the spend. Very close to Elijay, but far enough away to feel secluded. Had a couple good hikes as well. Blackberry trail is a short hike but a must do. Would certainly stay here again.

Wonderful Cabin!!!!

We have stayed in many cabins over the years, and this one is the best we have stayed in. The owners have thought of everything, from the inside to the outside. We loved seeing all of the deer around the cabin. We have never seen so many deer up close like that before. Thanks for the best vacation we have had in years. We would love to come back!
