Wonderful cabin stay—-highly recommend!We had an excellent stay at this cabin. It has a rustic charm, but still feels incredibly homey and comfortable— the perfect mix of cozy and cabin in the woods. The cabin was spotless and well maintained, and the hot tub was an absolute highlight of the trip. Kelli, our host, was thorough and made sure we had everything we needed. Honestly, this cabin is so well stocked that all you need to do is pack your clothes and grab some groceries. Everything else is taken care of.We would highly recommend this VRBO and would love to stay here again!

Thank you so much for your kind words! It brings us so much joy to know Kismet felt like the perfect blend of rustic charm and cozy comfort. One of our greatest hopes is that guests can simply unpack, take a deep breath, and enjoy being together, so hearing that you found everything you needed truly means the world to us. We’re so glad the hot tub became one of the highlights of your birthday getaway—it really is one of our favorite places to unwind, too. Thank you for choosing Kismet for such a special occasion. We hope the celebration was filled with laughter, rest, and beautiful memories, and we’d love the opportunity to welcome you back for another stay whenever the mountains are calling.

This is the first property I’ve stayed in where they said they were pet friendly and really meant it. I’ve stayed a lot of places that allowed my furry friends without any issues but these hosts went out of the way to leave dog biscuits, dog poop bags and a designated food and water bowl set up! The astroturf porch was a favorite on their paws and the sectioned off fenced area perfect for their potty needs. These little touches meant a lot. The check in was smooth and earlier than expected, the property so beautiful and cozy. Hot tub was ready and functioning and the hosts were so kind and communicative. One of my favorite Vrbo stays so far and I’ll definitely be booking again here. I will say the roads into the neighborhood were a bit treacherous if you aren’t used to mountain driving so go slow and watch out for the deer!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly made us smile to hear that you felt our pet-friendly promise lived up to its name. We know our four-legged family members deserve vacations too, so we love adding those little touches to help them feel welcome right alongside their humans. We’re so glad you enjoyed the cabin, the hot tub, and the cozy atmosphere, and we’re thrilled Kismet became one of your favorite Vrbo stays. Thank you as well for mentioning the mountain roads—they’re part of the adventure, and taking them slow is always the best way to travel… especially if one of our neighborhood deer decides to make an appearance! We’d love to welcome you (and your furry friends) back anytime. Safe travels until then! — Keli & Russ

About the host

Hosted by Keli Fowler

Host profile image
We're Keli and Russ — a semi-retired couple living right here in Ellijay, Georgia, which means we're genuine locals who truly love this corner of the North Georgia mountains.
Keli brings a background in naturopathic medicine and a deep appreciation for the restorative power of nature, rest, and slowing down — which is exactly the philosophy behind Kismet Cabin. We created this space as a sanctuary for couples who need to disconnect, breathe, and just be together again. Russ is the steady hands behind the scenes, keeping everything running beautifully so your stay is seamless from arrival to checkout.
We share our home with our beloved furbabies, and we understand what it means to travel with a furry family member — which is why Kismet Cabin welcomes well-behaved dogs at no extra charge.
As locals, we're happy to share our favorite hidden gems — whether that's a quiet hiking trail, the best apple orchard to visit in fall, a great spot for dinner in downtown Ellijay, or a winery worth lingering at. Just ask.
We put a lot of heart into Kismet Cabin and hope it gives you exactly what you came for — connection, peace, and a little mountain magic.
We can't wait to host you. ✨
— Keli & Russ

Why they chose this property

Honestly? We fell in love with it the moment we visited.
There's something about Coosawattee River Resort that just feels different from other places in North Georgia. The natural beauty stopped us in our tracks — the river winding through thousands of acres of forest, the wildlife, the way the mountains wrap around everything and make the rest of the world feel very far away.
But it wasn't just the scenery. As hosts who care deeply about our guests' experience, the gated community gave us real peace of mind — knowing you can arrive, settle in, and fully relax without a second thought about security. And the resort amenities meant we could offer guests so much more than just a cabin.
When we envisioned Kismet Cabin as a retreat for couples who need to truly disconnect and reconnect with each other, Coosawattee checked every box. We didn't just choose it — it chose us.

What makes this property unique

Kismet Cabin was designed with one thing in mind: you and your person, fully present and completely at ease.
From the moment you arrive, the details speak for themselves. The interior is warm and rustic — the kind of cozy mountain cabin that wraps around you like a blanket, with character and comfort in equal measure. Every corner has been thoughtfully curated to set the mood for romance, relaxation, and reconnection.
Step outside and the magic continues. Soak together in the hot tub under an open sky, gather around the fire pit as the evening settles in, or simply sink into a chair on the deck and watch the deer wander through the neighborhood — because yes, that actually happens here, and it never gets old.
On cooler evenings, curl up by the fireplace and let the mountain quiet do its thing. No agenda, no noise, just the two of you.
Our guests consistently tell us the same things: the cabin is immaculate, the atmosphere is undeniably romantic, the setting feels private and peaceful, and the little details show just how much care went into creating this space. That means everything to us.
Kismet Cabin isn't just a place to sleep between activities. It is the experience.
