The host is always very responsive and gracious! This is my brothers’ and my third year in a row staying here and are already looking forward to our next stay!
This is God's gift to earth. This wonderful place gives you a relaxing mindset. From a first responder, a high-stress job. This was my getaway for peace. I am looking forward to more trips mabe multiple times a year, to this luxury retreat of peace.
Brad and Sue’s property, hospitality and communication over delivered. The property was copiously stocked with all the needed essentials but also the touch items in large quantities like tea, coffee, creamer dish and laundry detergent. The baby gates, high chairs, baby plates, cups and silverware were a pleasant surprise. Highly recommended to visit this property!
We loved all the things. The cabin is beautiful and the Host shared so much information for sightseeing in the area. It was a 10 out of 10 experience. Will definitely recommend.
The cabin was amazing and very clean. Perfect for relaxing with family and friends. My only complaint is that we only stayed for a weekend and not a whole week. It was in a great location to everything we wanted to do. The host was quick to respond to any questions we had. We will definitely book again.
Very clean cabin in a very quiet location within a short drive to downtown Ellijay. Brad the property manager is quick to respond. Highlight of our stay was watching a black bear meander across the property in the evening. Not threatening, but I kept a safe distance.
I can't begin to explain how great this place was to spend my birthday! It is exactly as the pictures. The hosts were very kind. The only part that gave me anxiety was the road to the cabin but it got less and less scary as the days went on. I keep trying to think of my next occasion so I can book again!
Absolutely perfect! It is a beautiful place and had everything we needed. So peaceful and relaxing. Communication with owner was fabulous, very responsive. House was clean and had everything as described in the listing. Venturing out to the neighboring downtowns was fabulous. Just be prepared for steep mountain driving when getting to the property, very doable but be cautious as not everyone is experienced in this. The stay and cabin was amazing, I would highly recommend it.
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! The host was prompt responding to my questions and very helpful. Highly recommend this house!

This VRBO is very nice. The pictures does not do it justice. The residence is beautiful and location was perfect. I had to contact the host and they responded right away. I would recommend this VRBO to anyone.
We had a great stay in this property. It was just like the pictures except maybe better! It was beautiful and they had provided anything you might need. We spent much of our time there enjoying the decks, so peaceful! We would absolutely stay here again if we got the chance.
We loved our stay at this Ellijay cabin. This was the most well-stocked cabin we’ve seen. We had everything we needed plus more.
Check in and check out instructions were simple and communicated well. The owners did a great job communicating before and throughout our stay.
We would love to stay here next time we are in Ellijay!

Incredible visit for the second time with family! Snowy weekend in Georgia set the scene over the top. Outstanding and prompt communication with the host is always appreciated. We can’t wait for our next visit.
Wonderful cabin. Clean, well-appointed, great property with multiple decks, plenty of room for the family to spend time together and separately. Close to Ellijay and Blue Ridge.
Had an amazing time at the cabin. The property is beautiful and has all the amenities. Kitchen was well stocked. Kids loved the basement area. Brad and Sue are great hosts. Special thanks for the extended check out.
Perfect getaway cabin. Beautiful, clean, peaceful. Feels isolated even though it isnt. We loved it. Great location too. Easy to many hikes, Ellijay and Blueridge.

We had a fantastic stay at this property. The house is very spacious, making it ideal for our large family to spread out, relax, and enjoy time together. The owners were extremely attentive and responsive, checking in to ensure we had everything we needed.The property is beautiful, with peaceful surroundings and plenty of opportunities to spot local wildlife—a real highlight for both the kids and adults. We also loved that the house came stocked with games, which led to some super fun family game nights that made our trip even more memorable.Overall, this was a wonderful experience. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this home to any families or groups looking for a comfortable, scenic getaway with lots of opportunities for quality time together.
We stayed at this property with a group of nine people (2 families) , 4 adults and 5 children. The layout was perfect for us and everyone had a bed to sleep on. The kitchen worked well as we cooked all meals here from Saturday to Tuesday. The host was easy to communicate with throughout the stay. Make sure you drive a car that can handle steep hills and curvy roads for the drive up to the house. We saw a black bear walk in front of the house our first day! We utilized the fire pit last night for memorable s’mores memories. Would definitely recommend and stay again in the future!
We are still talking about this place days after returning home. I even had the wife of one of my brothers text me asking for the link because my brother was raving about it when he got home. Great house with great amenities and great location. Great, quick communication and responses from the property. We’ll be back!

Breathtaking beautiful new mountain home. Located in a quiet mountain neighborhood with lots of friendly people. This home has everything you need to relax and enjoy some quiet time. Close to local stores for food, liquor, and many restaurants. Close to Blue Ridge and many orchards and winery's. The home has games for all ages and ample space to spread out. Our favorite is the upstairs deck with fireplace and wooded views. This new home is very clean and well managed.

This house was the perfect mix of farmhouse chic and GA cabin vibes. It was truly a hidden gem set on top of the mountain in a private and gated community. It is located 10-15 minutes from the downtown area and convenient to restaurants, shops, and all your basic necessities and needs. We day tripped to dahlonega and the blue ridge mountains, all in a 20 mile radius. It was clean, warm, and had all the cozy feels. We saw deer feeding every morning in the backyard from the balcony. It was serene. Highly recommend 5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The home and property were as advertised. The home truly exceeded our expectations. The home is furnished beautifully, every amenity you think you need and more, the home is spotlessly clean, all appliances working as expected. The home's location is easy to access with paved roads, close to several towns and wineries for day trips, close to shopping and restaurants and best of all, quiet and peaceful at night. Brad and Sue the hosts were very communitive from the day we reserved the home through a very thorough and smooth check-in process to wishing us safe travels on our departure day. If you're looking for a cabin that truly feels more like a home, look no further.
