About this property

Keeping it Reel -Your pet-friendly creekfront haven, complete with hot tub, firepit, pool table, WiFi, and superb fishing

If you're seeking a luxurious North Georgia cabin rental with a stunning waterfront setting, "Keepin it Reel" is your dream getaway. Nestled on a wooded lot by Tickanetley Creek, this cabin offers the perfect blend of mountain charm and modern conveniences. The soothing sounds of the creek will relax you from the moment you wake up. Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the cabin is ideal for trout fishing and is close to the towns of Talking Rock and Ellijay.

Relax on the screened porch, take a nap in the sunroom, or stretch out on the hammock while listening to the sounds of nature. Enjoy a fresh-cooked meal, a morning coffee, or an evening beverage by the creek. The cabin's great room features exposed wood, from the floors to the ceiling beams, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Recline on the comfy sofa, use the Wi-Fi to plan your next adventure, or challenge your kids to a video game tournament on the 65-inch flat screen TV. The cabin also offers a pool table with a view of the creek, and a fully furnished kitchen with a stainless steel oven and plenty of counter space for meal preparation.

The cabin has two inviting bedrooms on the upper level with a shared bathroom. The master bedroom features a king bed, a private deck overlooking the creek, a TV, and a bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed, a TV, and shares the bathroom. "Keepin it Reel" is perfect for a small family looking to spend quality time together. With over 100 feet of creek frontage, the kids can look for crawdads, float on a tube, or play in the cool water pools right outside the back door. Bring your river shoes for wading and enjoy the shallow waters. Spend your days playing in the yard, teaching the kids to fish, or reading books together in the outdoor sunroom.

* Master on upper with King bed, private deck, TV and bathroom

Each evening, sip hot chocolate on the screened-in porch, gaze at the stars from the back deck, grill burgers on the private gas grill, or gather around the firepit for s'mores and ghost stories. The cabin also includes a washer/dryer for your convenience. This comfortable home is perfect for outdoor-loving families and offers easy access to North Georgia's breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains. Spend a day on Carters Lake, hiking nearby trails, or antiquing in Ellijay.

Located off Hwy 52E, "Keepin it Reel" is about 20 minutes from downtown Ellijay and the Apple Farms, where you can enjoy "you pick" or hayrides during the summer and fall. Amicalola Falls, with its various hiking trails, is only about 30 minutes away.

This cabin is very cute. It’s in an amazing spot. It’s relatively easy to get too from Ellijay. My kids loved sitting in the hot tub and watching the stream. The boys fished and got some bites. It’s much larger than we were expecting for a two bedroom cabin. The yard is also large and flat which was an added bonus.

Property was beautiful and very peaceful. When was warm upstairs didn’t cool off best with AC. Barbecuing wasn’t an option as was rusted and drip pan was falling out so unsafe to use. Hot tub needs instruction sheet on how to heat it. We did have a good time I. Spite of those things.

Relaxing Weekend

This was exactly what we were seeking. Relaxation and a chance to fish. Loved hearing the creek from the house. We were very glad to have come when we were the only guests around.

Nice weekend getaway

We were happy to have this be our last minute getaway from the city. Even though it rained, we had access to the trail for a quick walk, the hot tub for soaks, the views of the pond, and the sounds of the creek. It was very clean and provided all the essentials we needed as a family of 5. Additionally, getting a delivery of food was no issue and heading into town was a short drive.

A Happy Thanksgiving

Our family stayed at “Keeping it Reel” for the Thanksgiving holiday week. The drive up to the property is absolutely beautiful and a great location. The driveway is steep so I would recommend a larger vehicle or 4 wheel drive for easiest coming and going. The cabin is on the rustic side with limited phone service but that was perfect for us when we wanted to spend quality family time. The apple orchards are close as well as amazing hiking with waterfall views. We had a great stay and would love to come back.

Overall we enjoyed a peaceful stay at the cabin. There are some areas for improvement, however. The second floor bedrooms were very hot; we would have loved to open the windows for air circulation but there were no screens on them. We ended up buying an additional fan to combat this. The gravel on the sloped driveway was also very thick which made leaving the property challenging as we did not have a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Would also recommend to future renters to purchase groceries and any needed supplies such as dish soap before arriving at the cabin as the nearest store to do so is not nearby. We also expected to be able to fish while on property but found the creek to be very shallow and without fish.

Weekend getaway

My husband and I loved our quick and quiet weekend getaway to this secluded cabin. It was perfection for us and our dog. The pictures do not do the cabin nor the property justice. It was amazing and beautiful. We will definitely be back. The beds were comfortable, the creek was beautiful, the fire pit perfect, the hot tub wonderful, the kitchen had everything you need and more. The entire experience was beyond what we were expecting. I cannot recommend this any higher. You will not be sorry if you book here!! The only thing you need to know, is to make sure you go to the store before heading to the cabin. Im so glad we went prepared because it's a nice little drive out to the property. That's exactly what we were looking for though!!!

I would like to give you a heads up on a few things with this rental. The glass sliding door going out to the porch on the creek side slides so hard that we used the other door to get out there.The door going out onto the front deck by the barbecue doesn’t work. If you go out and close the door you can’t get back in! The door knob is broken.The big problem is the shower leaking through the dining table's ceiling.The kitchen pans are a hazard and should be replaced. The surfaces have flaked. The windows inside and outside the cabin have had no cleanup. Pictures attached.Not sure who is responsible for these problems however we would certainly would not rent this property again. And if you as the agent are responsible for these issues, a review of your policies should be the top of the list.The inside of the cabin was clean enough but not what I would consider clean. There are huge cobwebs in the windows, the screen doors are completely green. Hopefully this will help in pointing out the problems and they get corrected.

We enjoyed this cozy little cabin so much. The sound of the water flowing through the creek was so relaxing. The cabin is tucked far away from the busyness of town to be able to relax and unwind but not too far to drive into town when you want to explore or get a good meal. We highly recommend. It has a kitchen that is very clean and equipped with all things needs to create a good meal. Our pup loved the outdoor spaces too!
