Thank you! You and your friends are always welcome back- you always respect our property, and we really appreciate that. Our cleaners said they give you 10 stars!
We had an amazing fall break at this VRBO! We would HIGHLY recommend. This property was so clean and no detail was left out. We enjoyed eating out and cooking some meals in the fully functional kitchen. We enjoyed making a fire, eating smores, and playing cornhole, as well as utilizing the hot tub. The beds were so comfortable and perfect for our three generations family. We would stay here in the future for sure!
The house was beautiful and exactly like it was described. So much space! Plenty for the kids to do even on rainy days. The host was amazing and responded quickly when we messaged. Wild life, deer everywhere. It was a great experience. So glad we visited.

So happy to hear it. thanks for the kind words! Come see us again soon!
We’ve stayed in many cabins and this was by far the best one! They had everything you could possibly need and more! Everything was labeled, organized and so clean! Beds were so comfy!! The backyard was our favorite! We loved playing cornhole and sitting around the fire pit. The host were awesome and made the process so easy. Will definitely be back!!
This house is beautiful! Their cleaning crew is amazing! The beds are comfortable. This house is well stocked and has lots of added features to entertain everyone from sitting by the fire pit, to playing air hockey or watching TV on one of many TVs available. I choose this house because of the number of bathrooms! And I must say even the shower was great....hot water and great pressure!

Thank you so much! We are thrilled you had a great time!
We had an incredible stay at this cabin and honestly can’t say enough good things about it. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care the owners put into both the property and the guest experience.The cabin itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described. The layout was ideal for our family. The kids all loved the game rooms; especially pop-a-shot, corn hole, and the theatre room. The attention to detail really stood out — everything we needed was already there, and nothing felt overlooked.The owners were fantastic — responsive, thoughtful, and clearly invested in making sure guests have a great stay. They even went the extra mile to hang homemade ornaments on the tree with all our names and ensured my son’s birthday was special with a card. Communication was smooth from booking through checkout.If you’re considering staying here, don’t hesitate. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Ellijay/Blue Ridge area.

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review. It truly means the world to us to know your family felt cared for and enjoyed the cabin, especially celebrating your son’s birthday — that makes our hearts happy. We’re so glad the kids loved the game spaces and that everything met your expectations. Guests like you are exactly why we do this, and we’d absolutely love to welcome you back to Ellijay anytime. 💛
Nice house and wooded property. You will be visited by many deer everyday. Neighbors are far enough away that they are rarely heard. The house was in excellent condition and the host communicated almost everyday to check on things. During the stay we had a couple of questions and an issue with an appliance that were quickly answered and resolved. There is an indoor game room, a theater room, and outside activities available include hot tub, corn hole, bocce and a fire pit. Overall we had a wonderful time with twelve family members total.

Thank you, Dale & Cindi, for the wonderful review. You all were wonderful guests, and we hope you will visit again!
We had a fabulous weekend at this property. We had 11 adults for a 30th birthday weekend. The property was so clean and exactly as pictured. The owner and property manager were very communicative and nice. We loved the neighborhood and town. Here are some of the highlights:1. The property is SO pet friendly. They had thought of everything to make our fur babies welcome.2. The welcome packet - all of the suggestions and recommendations were perfect!3. The yard - amazing back yard with hot tub and bon fire. Very private in the woods.4. Overall accommodations - nice mattresses, pillows, and sheets. Good amount of soap, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, etc. Plenty of kitchen supplies, glassware, cookware as well. We hope to be back soon!
This house was great for our family. Thirteen total, we need lots of beds and lots of space. We fit the 5 boys downstairs on the bunks and trundle bed, 2 girls on a king, and the adults took the others. Plenty of games for the kids in the afternoon when they were tired from hiking, or when it rained. Great back deck with fire pit to make s'mores, and an area for bocce ball or corn hole (or for the deer that liked to chill on the fake grass!). Hot tub was great until we broke one of the jets...sorry! Jason was great and understanding. And don't worry, he got it fixed. He responded quickly to any of our questions. The hike to Tumbling Waters waterfall at Carter's Lake was worth it to play in the falls. Cartecay tubing was so good we did it twice. Thanks for the great stay!
