It features a huge wrap around, screened in porch, with a hot tub, Weber grill, 2 rocking chairs, and dining seating for 6. It’s perfect for enjoying your coffee in the morning or your wine in the evenings. There’s also a paved fire pit for you to enjoy at night. This home is less than 5 mins to downtown Ellijay and sleeps 8 comfortably. It has a huge first floor master with a King bed and a large Roku TV. The master bathroom, walk in shower, and walk in closet are also just as large, and is separate from the other bedrooms. The other 2 bedrooms are located upstairs and share a double sink “Jack n Jill” bathroom with a tub. Both bedrooms are comparable in size, have Queen beds, large closets, and Roku TVs in each. Outside of these bedrooms, there is a small loft with a twin memory foam pullout couch. The second twin pullout couch is in the game/tv room that is located in the sunroom near the master. The game room has a Roku tv, comfortable seating, a ping pong table, and foosball table. It is off the master and wrap around porch.

There is also a half bath off the living room for convenience. The large laundry room is behind the kitchen and off the garage entrance. IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ ! This home is what we call “the main house” on this property. “The river front cottage” - please see listing link below - is located a few hundred feet away from the house. This is a rental as well, so understand you may have guests there, so if you want to be secluded, this is not the property for you. We planted fern trees to separate the yards, but until they grow larger, there will not be complete privacy. They have their own yard/hot tub/and firepit, so those will not be shared. THIS PROPERTY IS PERFECT FOR HOSTING LARGE GROUPS like retreats and family reunions - it has 3 homes total on 6 acres of land. The 3rd property is linked below and is called “the treehouse”. The treehouse does not have any privacy issues since it is literally up in the trees away from both “the main house” and “the cottage”. All 3 homes can accommodate up to 18, while still having your own space. Other things to note: LATE CHECK-OUTS & EARLY CHECK-INS: Check-in time is 4PM and checkout time is 11AM. Door codes do not activate until set check-in time. Early access will not be provided without prior approval. Guests who check-in early or checkout past checkout time will charged the additional fee of $50/hr. There is a security camera facing the driveway that will be on during your stay. Any pets or extra guests seen on property is subject to a charge. Call us with any questions 727.209.7790

This was a great house. It had everything we needed from hairdryers to crock pots. It has a beautiful view and you feel like you are away from everything while only being about 10 minutes to get to anything you need. We cannot wait to visit again.

Overall we had a great time. This home had more than enough home away from home items. We had to make the best of the weather and all tubing companies were closed due to the lower temps and off season. Our boys enjoyed the property inside and out. I would say the location was amazing to town and to a great family friendly park, Gilmer Recreation Park. The home was layed out well with great furnishings and the beds were comfortable and better than most. I would have to say the stale shut in smell was a big turn off. When we arrived my husband had to leave to go buy air freshener and air neutralizing sprays. Over the next few days the house began to smell better and better. If we had not bought the spray our trip wouldn't have been as pleasant. There is just a lot of dampness due to the humidity and being on the water. The freezer would not open to the fridge and the ice maker did not work.The kitchen appliances are very new and this was a surprise. The hot tub,fire pit, and river were a highlight! Although, the hot tub was a hit it needed chlorine. The master bedroom and bath were spacious. We found out quickly it takes time to allow the hot water to run before reaching warmth. We also discovered someone can not shower upstairs and down stairs at the same time, you will not have any hot water to share! The property offered so much room for running and playing. The playground was an added bonus.

The house is nice and in a good, quiet location. We had plenty of room for our family of 7. We enjoyed the river, hot tub, firepit, games, cooked on the grill, and the kids loved the zipline between the two houses. The only issue we had was the ac was not running correctly and the fridge did not make ice. It was not unbearable, but it was cooler outside most of our time there. It is very close to town and we had no issues finding. We really enjoyed our stay!

We had a great experience with this property. We wanted to take a break from the city in the nature, next to a river, house with hot-tub and this house fulfilled our objectives. Is really close to town (5 min) with supermarkets, restaurants and stores. I tried to fish every day and only catch two trouts (I blame the fisherman). A really good surprise was the playground and swings for the kids at the back yard. Thanks for everything. See you soon!.

Cabin was very clean and easy to find. Very cold when we got to the cabin, 64 inside. Had to call. Told us we could raise the temperature and the trick is to turn on the fireplace to warm up the place. After we did that we were fine. Beds were really nice and comfortable. Everything you need is in the kitchen. The ice maker was not working. Used the fire pit and it was great. Location was close to everything. Would definitely stay here again.

What a great family getaway! The pictures don’t do this property justice. It is very spacious and everything was super clean. Kitchen was well stocked, I had everything I needed to prepare our Thanksgiving dinner for family. We enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit right next to the creek in the evenings. Quick drive to downtown Ellijay where there are plenty of restaurants and shops to enjoy.
