Perfect space for our family. The home was very clean and detailed directions to be able to make the most of all the ammenities and the activities in the area.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was very clean, stocked above expectations and comfortable. The previous renters left a bad smell in the cabin that DJ promptly came out to investigate and help remediate as best she could. We would love to stay here again. Just a warning that the road up the mountain is best to navigate in daylight your first time there.
Everything for our stay was perfect! Everything was clean and ready for us when we got there and we were able to get a little bit later checkout which was amazing!
The beds are comfy and the cabin is very cozy!
The stairs are not something i would suggest for the elderly, but you can walk around and down stairs outside if the stairs are a concern to you.
The kitchen was mostly fully stocked!
I highly recommend staying here, it is very close to all the fun things in blue ridge and is a GREAT value. We loved our stay!
We enjoyed our stay at Mel’s cabin. It was very cozy even though we had a couple issues with the heat the gas logs kept us warm. The cabin was well stocked and had a beautiful view. Our boys especially enjoyed the ping pong table and hot tub. Would advise caution when you get the cabin as getting up the mountain and pulling into and out of the driveway when you leave can be a bit tricky. Would overall recommend!
The cabin was really nice & clean, beautiful view. Loved the swing and rocking chairs.
As the host describes, the road to the cabin is rough terrain, with blind hills. And parking is tight for a large SUV, especially when backing out. There is a spiral staircase inside to the master bedroom. The master bathroom has a step-up to the shower & sink. Only mentioning for other guest, especially for older guest or handicapped guest. Overall the cabin was fully stocked and comfortable. We highly enjoyed the ping pong table & hottub. I hope the next guests enjoy staying. We did.
The place was cute, clean, and cozy. When we first entered the house the battery from the smoke alarm was chirping. I called DJ and she was there with a new battery within an hour. Driving up the mountains was challenging but I was forewarned by the other's reviews so I made sure we took the SUV. The only issue is that we wish the hot tub was cleaner. But other than that, we really enjoyed our stay at Mel's Cabin.
Very nice cabin in an easy to access area close to Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Everything was very clean and the cabin is well stocked, it has a nice smell of cedar and pine as you enter. Photos could use updating as we brought coffee for the maker pictured on the listing to find out there is now a Keurig instead. The security camera system announcing you’re being recorded any time you enter or exit the cabin is a bit intrusive feeling even though having one outside is to be expected. An announcer telling you someone is watching is not the relaxation sought and if a constant voice of oversight is not for you, move on. Otherwise, a really great cabin with everything desired. The hot tub has a feel of privacy and was very clean. We’ve stayed in dozens upon dozens of cabins across the country and this exceeds expectations and we’d stay again without hesitation.
The owner had not put in the correct code so we could not initally enter the cabin. The owner responded immediatley to our text and opened the door. The next day, the issue had been corrected. The cabin itself was very nice and comfortable. Mattresses were great. The photo of the driveway is sort of misleading. Like another guest had mentioned, backing out of this onto the road would be challenging especially if you had a large truck or SUV. Good idea to back in your vehicle. You definitely need an AWD or 4 wheel drive to go up the narrow one lane road to get to the cabin. The home itself provides privacy and a beautiful view.
The cabin was small , but beautiful, We were just three elderly people looking for a quiet weekend. It was wonderful sitting on the peaceful balcony. A deer usually came up each morning. However the inside of the cabin was a little difficult to get around for elderly people, Keep in my we are two 75 year olds, and one 70 year old. The stairs to the bottom half were very difficult to climb (up and down). The bathroom floors downstairs wasn’t very clean. If you take a shower down there, you need some rails to hang on to, the floor is very slick. It was a good place for a young couple to stay, but not for elderly people. The driveway was difficult for an elderly person to get out of. I sort of felt insulted by the envelope on the kitchen table . They wanted you to tip the cabin cleaner even after we had paid a 125.00 cleaning fee up front. I loved the peace and quiet,bu the cabin was not for us. The next time we will choose another cabin,
Cozy cabin with a beautiful Mountain View in the woods! We really enjoyed our stay, it was very comfortable and close to town. Loved having the fireplace and hot tub! The beds were very comfortable. We had a nice relaxing stay.
Loved the whole stay! Beautiful cabin, location and view is perfect. Hot tub is amazing in the evening with a glass of wine. Super comfortable, clean and beautifully kept. Amazing for a birthday weekend get away!
Will definitely be looking to come back here in the future.
Thank you Mel for the stay.
Family getaway. All adults.
Plenary of room for us. Cabin was very clean and stocked with what we needed. The hot tub was so relaxing. The cabin was excellent. Close to town if need to go.
Will book again!
Wonderful cabin with priceless view of sunset hues coloring the mountain lines. Hours can go by sitting on the porch and immerse in the nature. We had a blast playing table tennis too! Thank you for the great experience.
