House Rules:

Please be respectful and clean up after pets.
Pets are not permitted on furniture (beds, sofas, etc.).
A $150 fee will be charged for any pet-related damages, including urine, feces, excessive hair, or dander on surfaces/bedding.

Property Integrity: Please do not alter or remove any items in the cabin. Unauthorized changes may result in additional fees. Do not remove the Nest Connect or any Nest equipment, including the exterior camera, doorbell camera, or smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. Removal of these items will result in a $100 fine.

Winter Precaution: From November to March, please ensure faucets are left dripping overnight or while you are away to prevent pipes from freezing. Any damage or costs resulting from failure to follow this precaution will be your responsibility.

AC Usage: Please do not set the air conditioning to cold when it’s cold outside or to heat when it’s hot. Improper use can strain the system. Any damage or costs incurred due to non-compliance with this guideline will be your responsibility.

Please note: This is a remote cabin, and it will have remote style amenities. Please note that this cabin is located in a tranquil rural area, which comes with its own unique characteristics. Expect delayed services including professional services and call outs, gravel roads throughout the town, occasional power outages, wildlife encounters (including squirrels in the attic), downed trees, and other country nuances. Gravel road to property is narrow and uneven in some areas. While the road is maintained about once a year, the rains can wash it out. This is a rural property. We like our road and travel it often with all sorts of vehicles. An SUV is not needed, but recommended- as is a sense of adventure and love of nature. Rest assured, the Owners and Hosts are experienced professionals committed to addressing any concerns promptly to ensure your comfort.

Rural Cabin

The cabin was nice for what it is. Simple. Also the driveway is extremely bumpy which was not clear at booking. After dropping our bags we went out for dinner the first night. Upon returning there was a small bug/beetle walking across the bedspread. After later research, it looked like it was a carpet beetle. Not knowing what it was at the time, we decided we could not sleep in a bed that has bugs on top of it. We vacated and booked a hotel. Never even got settled in. Owner got a pest company in next morning and said they did not detect bugs despite me sending the owner a picture per his request. Owner said that weekend they would decide what they could do to make it right and never contacted me for 3 weeks until i emailed them to follow up. Now they say nothing they can do.

Very Cozy!

We had a great 3-day weekend staying in this very cozy 2 story cabin. The property itself is south of Ellijay, and is within 1 1/2 miles of Engelheim Winery - which happens to be one of our favorites. You will feel like you are in the middle of nowhere as you drive back; it's 0.3 miles through the woods to get back to a very secluded property. Please be aware that you will want a SUV or truck to the property. The driveway/road is a dirt/gravel set of tire tracks and is quite bumpy; the are not kidding with the vehicle suggestion in the description! I could not have taken my sedan back - there is not enough clearance. Note that this is not a complaint; it is just for you to be aware of. The house is two-story with two bedrooms and a nicely updated bathroom upstairs. Downstairs is a large kitchen/dining area and a sizable living room. If you want to feel like being in a rustic place/setting with all modern conveniences - this is the place!

Great get away…would highly recommend!

We loved staying at Stackrock cabin. It’s secluded and quiet. We loved sitting at the fire pit and watching the lightning bugs, seeing the deer in the mornings and riding our motorcycles on the beautiful mountain roads. It’s just what we needed to relax, unwind and recharge.

Cabin in the woods

Lots of privacy. Comfortable furnishings. We were in Elijah for a wedding. The road in was a very narrow and washed out in many spots. That is the only down side to our visit.

Comfy home away from home

Stackrock is exactly as described and pictured. Beautiful, secluded, quaint, no frills cabin. It was perfect for our little family of 3. The grounds were great for exploring (for pets and kids). Location is convenient to local sites, hiking and Ellijay in general. It has all the amenities of home. All in all, it’s a great place. The owner was very responsive to communications and super friendly and accommodating.

Relaxing Birthday

Great property, we enjoyed the privacy and the fully stocked firewood for the fire pit. The games were also a nice surprise and allowed us to unplug and unwind from tech for the weekend. Close proximity to TN where we went white water rafting. Great location to downtown Elijay.

Great stay one wish

Loved the setting and the home. Thanks for sharing. My only wish would have been for a broom or dust mop to allow us to be sure to leave the property as we found it. I would have also liked to have dishwashing liquid to hand wash dishes

Quiet peace

My favorite thing about this property was the seclusion. While sitting around the fire pit, the lack of light pollution brought out a million stars. The wildlife is abundant and exhilarating to see. The cabin was clean and just lovely. Being pet friendly, my dog had lots of room to run, untethered, without fear of nearby thoroughfares. We will stay here again.

Peaceful getaway!

This was a great weekend getaway. We loved the property & the kids got to see deer right outside the windows. The play set (especially the swing) was a favorite. We love Ellijay, but we didn’t even leave the property because it was just so peaceful there. The host was wonderful. The cabin is an old home place, which was a delightful surprise. Most cabins we stay in are built just for vacation homes, but this one felt special. We plan to return!

Quiet getaway

This cabin was perfect for a relaxing weekend of apple picking and enjoyment! I’m a tree lover and the property didn’t disappoint as it’s surrounded by trees and peacefulness. It’s close enough to town and all the different orchards but far enough out to not have the hustle and bustle and noise. Would definitely stay again. Comfy rooms. Nicely stocked kitchen. Beautiful views and cozy porch to relax in.

Very Clean

The property was very clean and well kept. (A priority for us.) Access to backyard fire also available. The beds were aged and needed replacement years ago. While we have a truck and got through the road to the cabin just fine - it was not kept and could have used some major trimming.

Great Long Weekend!

We needed an easy mountain getaway, and this property fit the bill! We loved how secluded it felt while still being close to town. We didn’t spend much time at the house, but it was perfectly located with all of the hiking trails in the area. Being able to bring our puppers was a plus, and they had a blast exploring the woods with the kiddos. One of the highlights was the incredible amount of lightning bugs! We will definitely be back!

Anniversary Getaway

Thank you so much for letting us stay at your property! This trip was a late anniversary trip for me and my husband. We had such a great time. We loved the privacy, the porch, the coffee, the clubhouse seating area, and we want to return in a few months. Everything was clean, and we had no problems whatsoever! Thank you for letting us stay. It was one of our best experiences ever! Oh, and the town is wonderful with so many neat shops and restaurants, and the highlight was walking down tumbling trails to the waterfall and putting our feet in the creek! Such a beautiful place, and we hope to be back soon!
