About this property

Luxury Retreat Overlooking the 11th Tee at Whitepath Golf Course in Ellijay

Relax and unwind in our luxury cabin overlooking the 11th Tee of Whitepath Golf Course, located directly between Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Enjoy resort-style accommodations with all new high-end furniture, linens and bedding. This is our happy place, our home away from home, and we hope you love it as much as we do!

Relax on our 32 foot screened porch overlooking the 11th Tee. Sink into comfortable seating, put your feet up and enjoy your coffee in the morning listening to the birds sing. In the evening, watch deer and wild turkey from the back deck, enjoying your favorite beverage. We’ve just installed a wall hung radiant heater on the deck to extend your outdoor enjoyment in cooler weather.

Inside, the cabin has a spacious open layout with modern farmhouse decor, two cozy wood-burning fireplaces and a newly renovated chef's kitchen with all the amenities you'll need. Fully stocked with staples, such as coffee, tea, spices and condiments, along with other goodies just for you. There is a bar area with mixers, barware, cocktail shaker, and everything you need to make that perfect beverage. Just byob.

Our bedrooms are designed for comfort and relaxation. The main bedroom has a king bed and en-suite half bath. The cozy second bedroom offers a double bed, and charming farmhouse décor.

The cabin has excellent internet, and if you must work on vacation, there is a great set up with a desk, laptop stand, mouse, and keyboard for your use. We also have an automatic whole house generator in case of power outages. Paved roads and an easy drive make this the perfect getaway.

Absolutely enjoyed our stay in this cozy and very accommodating cabin nestled in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains in Ellijay, Ga. And the hosts were the most gracious and thoughtful I’ve ever encountered. Goes to show that if you treat others with kindness and respect it often is reciprocated in ways that are above what’s expected. Thank you for a great vacay! I highly recommend it.

Unmatched Comfort and Hospitality – We’ll Be Back!

We were in absolute awe—this is hands down the coziest rental we have ever stayed at. If we could give a 10-star rating, we would. The property owners were incredibly gracious, hospitable, and responsive. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and at home.Every detail of the cabin was thoughtfully prepared, and the number of little extras provided was unlike anything I’ve experienced at any other rental. It felt like home the second we walked in—a peaceful, warm, and true escape. The owners genuinely wanted us to enjoy our stay, and their care and attention showed in every aspect of the property. I’ve never stayed anywhere so accommodating, and I absolutely intend on visiting this special place again. Highly recommend!

The cabin and hosts were wonderful. We loved the area but, unfortunately we had a family emergency and didn’t get to complete our stay. Hopefully, someday we can return and would love to rent the very same cabin.

We had an amazing time at this perfect cabin in the woods. The hosts were extremely responsive. Diane was great about answering several questions we had and even helped us when we had car problems. The cabin was spotless and literally stocked with everything you could need. We would highly recommend this beautiful property.

This is the second time I have stayed at this property and it is amazing. Diana is such a sweet person and is always very accommodating. The cabin feels like home and has been stocked with everything you may need. Its in a great cental location to all the activities and many towns in North Georgia. I love sitting on the screened in deck and watching the deer and listening to the birds. I will definitely be back!

My husband and I absolutely loved staying at your cabin. We enjoyed having breakfast on the porch and watching people play golf. We also got to see deer and lightning bugs from the porch in the evening. It was so peaceful. The cabin has everything you may need and is decorated beautifully. We will definitely be back!

The cabin was perfect for my husband and I to have a quiet getaway. Saying it was well-stocked is an understatement! They thought of everything that you could possibly need for your stay. The cabin was so cozy it felt like we were just having a nice weekend at home. It was very convenient to all the places we wanted to visit. Diana checked in with us periodically and even let us know we could check in early on our day of arrival. She was very responsive. We would definitely recommend this cabin and choose to stay here again in the future. Thank you Diana and Rich!

Cozy Cottage. . .

We were looking for a comfortable, quiet, vacation rental, this far exceeded the plan! Best stocked/supplied VRBO we’ve ever seen. The hosts/owners were wonderful (quick to respond, knowledgeable/helpful & truly wanted to ensure a pleasant stay for us) actually, we extended our stay a couple of days :-) partly because of that. We had a couple of rain-days but the soothing sounds on the metal roof were a wonderful addition for relaxing either on the comfy couches or lounging on the porch (completely screened in so no biting uninvited guests!). Thank you for sharing your little piece of the mountain/heaven, we hope you get to enjoy it also.

In some aspects I give 5 stars (for property) & some I give 4 stars. 5 stars: the condition of the property - clean, well stocked kitchen, nicely decorated, updated appliances, host provided snacks & condiments, drinks in fridge, comfortable bedding, comfortable outdoor seating. The host thought of everything & super nice! 4 stars: somewhat off the beaten path - a little further away from town than we expected but beautiful area. Lastly, the deer were plentiful!!!… once you turned off the main hwy. Who doesn’t appreciate an occasional deer sighting? But this was a bit beyond that & made driving a little sketchy. Every drive in or out they were on the road or barely off the road. This is a single lane road w/deep curves - totally hidden views of oncoming traffic in some spots. That mixed with deer roaming in the street can be a bit unnerving. My husband drove very slowly & even stopped at times to let them pass or just waited for them to move. We made sure to get in before dark to avoid hitting one. Deer were mentioned in the description, but we didn’t anticipate the extent of their presence. Just something to be mindful of, but l still recommend if you’re good with that. You’ll definitely enjoy your stay!

Welcome Home

Staying at this property truly felt like a home away from home. It’s almost like my sweet aunt invited me to stay at her cozy cottage while she was out of town. I can’t explain it but it didn’t feel like staying in any other VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. It felt lived in, but in a great way! It didn’t feel stale or lonely or basic. It was just so comfy, homey, and cozy! I can’t get over how STOCKED the cabin was! We were welcomed with chocolates, a bottle of wine, and a welcome card! Super bummed we forgot to sign the guestbook so don’t forget! Bonus points for Trader Joe’s products (my favorite grocery store)! The decor is just adorable and so well thought out! In addition, everyday we saw beautiful deer outside the cabin by the course! It was so cool! The porch was probably our favorite part! My hubby and I brought my nephews for some summer fun but we can’t wait to come back on our own for a little romantic getaway! Diana was so incredibly communicative and helpful! Again, it just felt like I was talking to a family member. We were all enamored with this cabin, Buckhorn Estates, and Ellijay! We will 100% be back! Thank you for a very enjoyable and memorable stay, Diana and Rich!

Nothing short of amazing!

This cabin is better than pictures or described. My husband and I got away for a long weekend without the kids. While it was a little more than our usual budget, it was WELL worth it! The cabin is absolutely beautiful, home decor inside and out is perfect. Diana has thought of everything, there was nothing that we needed that wasn’t provided and then extra! I would highly recommend this cabin!

Fall Break Retreat

This was our 2nd time staying at this wonderful cabin. It is comfortable and has all you need for a relaxing stay. The screened-in back porch is a spot you could stay and enjoy all day. The fire pit was enjoyed each evening. The drive into historic downtown Ellijay is beautiful. We drove there several times during our stay. We enjoyed breakfast, pizza, and shopping downtown. We also drove into Blue Ridge for a delicious dinner and went to Mercier Orchard to pick apples and shop in their wonderful market. The apple cider slush is wonderful, delicious apple cider donuts, & other treats to buy & take home. We look forward to returning on our next Fall Break!

About the host

Hosted by Diana and Rich Hoyt

Host profile image
We are empty nesters, splitting our time between Atlanta and Ellijay. Having lived in Atlanta most of my life, I've enjoyed the beauty and peace of the N. Georgia mountains for as long as I can remember. My husband is a Colorado native, so being in Ellijay gives him the opportunity to enjoy the mountains once again. Our son is a musician in Nashville and we visit him often. We love the peace and serenity we find in the mountains, after the fast paced lives we lead in Atlanta.

Why they chose this property

It was fate! We rented this cabin in July of 2020, to celebrate birthdays and search for property in the area. Little did we know we'd fall in love with this cozy cabin and make it our home. We love the 32 ft. deck overlooking the golf course, the beautiful natural surroundings, native mountain laurel and deer, wild turkey and even bears - though we've yet to see one! The cabin is the perfect combination of rustic/farmhouse feel with modern amenities. It is our home away from home and we couldn't be happier.

What makes this property unique

Located in Buckhorn Estates, we get the benefits of both worlds. There’s a wonderful walking area and gazebo adjacent to the Ellijay River, and a stocked lake for fishing and kayaking. We are directly overlooking a challenging golf course which is fun to play and people watch. Ellijay River Winery is located right across the street. We have beautiful views, yet manageable paved roads.
