8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Sitting outdoors is like being in a deer farm; very peaceful. Downtown Ellijay is totally unique, close by along with some great vineyards with good wine and fantastic views. If you like the mountains you'll enjoy this property.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
The place was great. You need to be able to transverse narrow hilly road to get to the house but not like other places I’ve rented. The house was very clean. There’s a fenced yard for your dog if needed. Hot tub was a bit out in the open but ok for us. The only little issue was the downstairs bed was a bit too soft for my husband. He’s a big man, 6’4” about 220 lbs. so it probably won’t be an issue for others. The host was in great communication

Our stay was amazing, cant wait to come back, we had a great time exploring the creeks and river nearby and seeing the deer in the morning, we also visited amicolola falls and anna ruby falls both are recommended. Cabin was clean and owner was very responsive, we will definitely stay again, also the community amenities were nice the gym was good and the indoor heated pool!
