Lovely stay! So clean, peaceful, and cozy. We felt right at home. Leigh was so helpful. We played board games & watched DVD’s, used binoculars to bird-watch, walked to the lake, and spent time on the porch. Exactly what we needed. ❣️😊

We had a few hiccups with some of the amenities, seems like they may have had a power outage. They were able to come out and fix everything the next day though. Quiet area with nice outdoor seating.

we enjoyed the peace and quiet, the place is very beautiful. Comfortable beds and furniture, everything you need for cooking, nice towels and communication was great... the only thing, if it's a bad thing.... inadequate water pressure.

This place is absolutely beautiful! It was clean and easy to get to. Very convenient to downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge. It has everything you need if you just want to stay at the cabin and not go anywhere. We make several trips a year to this ar...
Immaculately clean! Everything was perfect!
Positive:
Loved everything about the cabin.
This was the cleanest cabin I’ve ever stayed in. The hot tub was well kept and easy to operate. We will definitely stay here again. The only thing I would add is a Keurig coffee maker.
