Guest Access:
Walnut Mountain is a gated community. The best access to the property is through gate 2, which GPS navigation should take you directly to. An access code for the gate will be provided 48 hrs prior to check in. Once at the property, there will be a gate key for you to use for the duration of your stay.

The property provides parking space for 5-6 vehicles. Please note that there is level parking for 2 vehicles in the main section of the driveway. The lower portion of the driveway has room for an additional 3-4 vehicles, but due to the steeper grade of this section of driveway it is recommended that this area be reserved for 4-wheel drive vehicles in case of slick weather conditions.

Other details to note:
Guests also have access to all the community amenities. These include an outdoor community swimming pool (open Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend), playground, tennis courts, a basketball court and a picnic area. Bring your canoe, kayak, and/or fishing poles to take advantage of the 4 private lakes in the community that are home to bass, catfish, and brim! The largest of these lakes is only 200 yards from the cabin! Last, but not least, enjoy a nature walk on one of the many hiking trails, including a waterfall hike. Gear for the above mentioned amenities is not provided at the property, but guests are encouraged to bring their own to enjoy during their stay.

Also worth noting is a 4-wheel drive trail that is recognized by the North Georgia Jeep Association only a few minutes from the property down Turniptown Rd.

Girls Trip

Property was very clean and well stocked with amenities. Beds were comfy and lots of space. Hot tub was a bonus for booking this cabin. Extra hot tub towels would have been nice. We had 5 guests and only 4 towels. Highly recommend booking.

Birthday weekend

Whole family enjoyed our stay. Cabin was clean and well stocked. Plenty of room for all 7 of us. Nearby lake allowed for plenty of fishing opportunities. We hiked over to the waterfall, stopped by the winery and drove into Ellijay for drinks before dinner. Thanks A.J. We will be back.

What a peaceful place

We loved our stay in walnut mountain! The house was exactly as described. AJ dealt with the hot tub being murky right away. Instructions were all clear and easy. The lot is gorgeous. The only complaint we'd have is we didn't get to stay long enough!

This cabin is great for a family vacation. There is a short walk to access the lake behind the cabin, but there is a driveway that leads right to it. Cabin is very clean and looks exactly as pictured. Communication with the owner was superb. We were checked on after our first night to see if we needed anything. We were able to cook several meals and grill on site. Highly recommended for families with kids.

I rented this cabin for a family Easter vacation. There were 7 of us and there was ample room for all of us to move around freely. The beds were comfy and we all slept like babies. The cabin is so beautiful and pretty much had everything that we needed in terms of dishes and pots. There was even a large crockpot which we took advantage of while there. The owner provides you with a lot of the basic necessities such as coffee, spices, paper towels and TP. The game room downstairs was a favorite of the group and we spent a lot of time playing Space Invaders into the wee hours of the night! The cabin is located in a prime location with grocery stores and dining about 5 miles away. We enjoyed venturing out to explore Ellijay and the town of Blue Ridge where there is some great shopping. The creek that runs through the community area is absolutely beautiful and is a must see. AJ, thank you so much for allowing us to rent your wonderful cabin. We hope to come back next year to make a stay in your cabin a family tradition.

Walnut mountain

The house was well maintained and even decorated for Christmas. The Wi-Fi was easy to connect to and faster than expected, all of the amenities were working properly and the host was incredibly accommodating. I would definitely stay here again if the need arises.

Perfect for families

We enjoyed our stay. Relaxing and peaceful location. The house was loaded with everything you would want or need. Very clean and nicely decorated. The emergency night lights were a great help as a storm caused the power to go out during the first night. We were able to see until the power came back on. The hot tub was great! Wonderful getaway.

Favorite vacation rental ever

This was absolutely the most perfect cabin rental for my family. The cabin was well stocked and had everything we needed and more. We had ample room to spread out and relax. The kids enjoyed the game room downstairs the most. We enjoyed the Walnut Mountain neighborhood a lot and spent an entire day exploring the lake, trails, and Turniptown Creek. The Blue Ridge and Elijay area is such a beautiful place to visit, and if we are back, we will most definitely be back to stay at this lovely cabin. Thanks again for being such an amazing host for our trip.
