Lovely get a way

The cabin is very comfortable with a very efficient kitchen for all cooking needs big or small. The sound of the creek in the back yard is a very nice relaxing sound while on the porch or sitting by the creek. Everything was very pleasant and the next door neighbors are both very friendly but you still have your own space and privacy to enjoy your stay.

Anniversary trip

The cabin is in the perfect spot, just intimate enough for my husband & I. We had loads of fun at the creek and we’re able to catch horn heads, bluegill, and a pretty large trout. We spent time in Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Both of which were very accessible to our locationz

We love this place. It is our second time here and will come back again and again. We actually are here this time for our honeymoon. We have to mention Ducky the dog. He is the sweetest. He is always the first to greet us. The neighbors are great also. We can’t wait until next time.

I could not have loved it more! The owner had it decorated for Christmas, which was perfect. I met the neighbor and neighbors dogs. Love them, so sweet! I can not wait to stay there again. We normally like to stay somewhere different every time but I think this place changed that. The outdoor deck and hot tub was perfect as well.

Pretty good

Very nice cabin. Only thing … bathroom is down stairs. Be prepared to walk up and down stairs. Loved the jacuzzi… the outside gazebo needed a lot of repairs… the check in process was a total headache for me… I was told we could check in early.. went to the property and could not get in even after we bought perishable groceries… had to wait a while… finally got in.. that part was not good. Overall cabin was clean and nice.. just was happy to have a “ get away” from work for the weekend.

Thank you for sharing your experience; it sounds like the cabin served as a lovely escape despite some bumps along the way. We're genuinely sorry to hear about the challenges during check-in and will look closely at the gazebo situation. It's wonderful that you enjoyed the jacuzzi and found the cabin clean—here's hoping your next getaway is even smoother!

Stay

Unfortunately I wish I could provide a better review but I can't regarding a few issues. First the bedroom and beds are upstairs and the one bath downstairs. When you want to go to the bathroom you wake everyone up. Secondly the driveway down to the property is bad. I believe my mom messed up her car on the out one day because there is a 8-10" drop where the gravel has washed out. The pillows smelled a little like they were old. It was pretty remote but not crazy. Other than that is was ok.

Adorable cabin

We took a family road trip for the first time to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and I had a hard time deciding between a mountain view or a cabin on a creek. I am so happy with our decision to stay by the creek, the yard is huge and allowed our kids to run around, and the dock on the creek was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon reading. The house was perfectly cleaned, and had everything we needed. The neighbors are permanent residents, and were so sweet and helpful. The only down fall was a very hazardous drive way. We have a lifted truck, and had a hard time getting up the steep, washed out, dirt drive every time. When we tried to get closer to the side to miss the huge holes we scratched our truck on the branches. It was a disaster, and I do not believe a regular sedan would be able to handle it. On a positive note, the super helpful neighbor said the road will be paved Aug 8-10, and after that it should be perfect! But definitely a heads up for anyone traveling to the cabin before. Other than that the cabin is wonderful!

Beautiful area but dangerous driveway

The area the cabin is located is beautiful - although there were other buildings/rental sharing the area. The driveway to access the property extremely steep and is washed out in several areas. The asphalt of the driveway has several large potholes with large drop offs. We slid down the driveway on the way down and when we tried to see if we could get back up the driveway, we slid backwards 4-5 times with no traction. The pictures and description of this cabin misrepresent the ability to access the property. If we had known about this driveway we would not have booked this property. It was extremely difficult to leave the property. If you have a large SUV or truck with four wheel drive, you will probably be fine. We did not feel safe to stay as we only had a small SUV, that did not have four wheel drive. We contacted the host and VRBO immediately. The host refused to assist us with the issue and later advised the cleaner is able to navigate the driveway . We advised the cleaner has a larger Dodge Durango. We offered to send pictures of the driveway along with pictures of where we got stuck. We were on the phone with VRBO for over 4 hours. We were left stranded with no place to stay. We wound up cancelling our vacation and returning home. We never stayed at the cabin so I cannot speak to the cleanliness.

Amanda, we're saddened to hear about your experience, and we completely understand your disappointment. Our guests' safety is one of our top priorities, and we appreciate you bringing the inconvenience you encountered with the driveway to our attention. We've reached out to the personnel directly involved to ensure our listing is advertised correctly and to see if any adjustments should be made and where we can improve so this doesn't happen again. By no means is this how we wanted your vacation to unfold, and we regret knowing that you could not enjoy your cabin. We cannot apologize enough for the dismay this experience caused. We would love to serve you better in the future, as this is certainly not our norm. However, we understand if you choose to stay elsewhere, and we hope this ordeal does not deter you from returning to the area for a more enjoyable getaway.

A perfect place for peace

Property was great-only problem was the driveway, it is very steep my Durango had a time at first getting out we slid back down had to back into the neighbors driveway a bit to make it up hill and the rain and potholes doesn’t make it better.The driveway is in a curve so you have to be careful coming out overall this place is great for peace and quiet listening to the creek.Oh even though you are not allowed to have pets the strays or neighbors dogs are always there I would assume they are the neighbors because one has a collar, but if I had to stay here again I definitely would
