House was beautiful and great for a group with kids and adults. Amazing, private location, but not too far into the resort so you can get in and out easily. Would absolutely stay here again!! Host was super helpful and even gave us suggestions of things to do.
We spent a wonderful relaxing week in this beautiful home. The house is very clean, well equipped with anything you could ask for and the location is quiet and secluded. The kids loved to play in the yard and the creek behind the house.
The house had large and comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen had everthing we needed plus more! There were plenty of things to do for all ages at the house and in Ellijay.Your family will love it!!
Everything about the property was first rate, 5-star quality. The cabin accommodated our 4 generations of family to perfection, the back-to-nature setting was like a dream.

We come to Ellijay several times a year and have been for years now, this cabin is actually one of my absolute favorites that we have stayed in!! Sean was great to work with from the very beginning!!!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The cabin is great and well stocked! But our favorite part was enjoying the outside areas of the property! It is beautiful! The owner was great and very communicative! Would love to stay here again!

This cabin was absolutely beautiful. It was very clean, well stocked and the cabin itself and the grounds were beautiful. We loved the hot tub, the fire pit and the fireplace int he living room. The game room was a lot of fun, too. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. Other than a little blip getting checked in, everything was perfect!
Fantastic house and backyard. Very clean and everything in order. The host is amazing

This property was perfect from the time we got there until we left. Had fires in the firepit next to the creek. Great meals with a well stocked kitchen. Lots of games inside the house for everyone. We had ages 3 -77 and no one was bored. The cabin and property are better than perfect!!
We loved our stay at the cabin. Even with the rain, there was plenty of stuff to keep everyone entertained. The cabin was super clean and had everything we needed! Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Thank you, Emily. We are so glad you enjoyed your time at Creekside Solitude and hope you'll come back. Take care, Sean
We had a wonderful stay. Our boys all loved playing in the creek and with the awesome game and movie set up in the basement. The property was very clean with so many thoughtful touches. Everyone had plenty of space and the kitchen was well stocked. Thanks!
We had a great weekend even with wet weather. The cabin has a ton of space with all the amenities you could want. The beds are comfortable and the game room is perfect. The lot is huge, and the creek and fire pit are perfect to sit outside and relax and enjoy. We will definitely be back when we are in the North Georgia Mountains.

We had a fabulous time at this property. The layout of the house is perfect for friends and family. All the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was generously stocked and we made many memories around the firepit. Sean was the perfect host. We wouldn't change a thing! Can't wait to return!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this property. The home was absolutely perfect for my entire family to enjoy time together. Each family group (4 families) had their own bedroom AND bathroom which was ideal! The overall property was gorgeous and the frequent visits from the deer was a highlight! One of the best weeks we have had for sure. We are very grateful!

The host responds quickly and provides very detailed information to make your stay enjoyable, relaxing, and stress free. The cabin had plenty of room for the (11) of us, 2 years old to 62 years old. The living and kitchen areas were perfect for our Thanksgiving meal. The downstairs playroom was perfect for all ages. The home is situated on a perfect piece of property, flat to play all kinds of sports, on the river perfect for exploring, a fire pit for evening talks, listening to the rambling water, and making smores. The host provides you with many, if not all kitchen utensils, linens, towels, paper towels, toilet tissue, internet, the list goes on and on. The road to the home is paved and the driveway to the home is also paved and lined with reflectors to help guide you safely. And if you like deer, there is no shortage of deer on the property and in the neighborhood. Best of all, any activity you would like to do is within a one-hour drive, wineries, restaurants, waterfalls, mini golf, petting zoos, etc.
The property was perfect for our family weekend getaway. As grandparents with four grown children, we cherish the time we get to spend with each of our kids. The opportunities to get everyone together at the same time are very special and require a special location. This property delivered in every aspect and we would hope to visit again! The home is very well appointed with great family spaces and a beautiful location.

Greg and his family were great guests, left our house clean, and abide by all house rules. We hope they’ll come back and are welcome anytime!
The perfect retreat from the city! The house is designed well to give multiple families plenty of privacy and room to relax. We loved the kitchen area and took advantage of all the porches. But the best part was the surrounding area - nature at its best. A perfect stream, tall beautiful trees, and the perfect place to end each day by the fire.

About the host
Hosted by Sean and Jill Purdy
Sean, Charles, and Todd have been best friends since 9th grade, growing up just outside of New Orleans. After graduation, they moved across the country but stayed close friends. Since the tragic loss of the Smith's son in 2017, it made the guys realize they needed to be more intentional and make time to get together on a more regular basis. When they found this beautiful home in the North GA mountains, they knew it was the perfect place to make lasting memories. We hope you'll share as many smiles, laughs, and good times as we have over the years, as you create your own special memories at Creekside Solitude.
