We had a great stay. The home was clean. Sound of the creek was perfect. The other homes on the creek path are not visible so you felt like it was your own little slice. Would recommend this home for your Ellijay vacation.

This property is nothing short of amazing. Its proximity to the flowing river and relaxing amenities cannot be beat. We loved staying here and loved the area, specially seeing all the deer just wandering about. Highly recommend.

This cabin and location was absolutely amazing. It was very clean and comfortable. The river and campfire area was the best part. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed. It had so many games. We will definitely love to come back.

The home was very warm and inviting. She had lots of things for my grandchildren to enjoy. The best feature was the beautiful river and being so close to it! As chill of a cabin as you could desire.

From the moment we arrived, we were in awe at the beauty of this cabin and the surroundings. We had an easy check in process and the cabin had everything we needed. Our favorite night at the property was when we built a fire and dined by the water. I can't say enough about how wonderful this property is. We hope to be back next year!

This cabin was absolutely wonderful! The check-in and check-out process was seamless, and the host was incredibly responsive and well-organized. One of the best features was the direct access to the water—it was such a treat! The cabin was fully stocked with plenty of amenities and games to keep everyone entertained. To make our stay even more special, we were greeted by a beautifully decorated Christmas tree and stockings hanging by the fireplace—it truly felt magical. Highly recommend this cabin, 10/10!

Had an excellent time staying at this property. The serene sounds of the river are abundant. The home is well appointed and in a great location away from noisy roads. The deer are everywhere within the resort property which add an additional layer to the peaceful setting. The property owner is very responsive. I will certainly rent from her again when I return to Ellijay.

We enjoyed our house for the week. It was hard to find at first, but once we figured out to get to and from the house it was fine. We enjoyed the river and amenities of the resort. Our children loved fishing, swimming, and tubing in the river next to the house. It was beautiful and the owner was super helpful when we needed anything. We would love to rent from one of her properties again.

Great property. Close to wineries, shopping and restaurants once you get out of the resort. Roads are a bit bumpy at times. Host was very responsive to questions and gave great directions.

The cabin was wonderful! Fully stocked with a ll the necessary amenities. My kids loved playing by the river and swinging on the hammocks. There were tons of board games and DVD's provided. The private balcony off the master bedroom was so cozy. We will definitely be back!

My wife and I stayed the weekend with 2 other couples and we had a wonderful time. The cabin seems brand new and had all the comforts of home. Other than a spotty Wi-Fi connection (streaming football game) our stay was perfect.

We loved the drive up to the cabin with all the hills and hairpin turns as we don’t experience that in Florida. The river was beautiful as was the cabin. Relaxing in the hot tub was one of our favorite pastimes and all amenities were close. Betsey was super easy to communicate with and we’ll definitely be back.

I booked this cabin because it was on the water and I am so glad I did. We spent a lot of our time tubing and listening to the sound of the water in the early mornings. We loved the drive to and from the cabin and enjoyed all of the deer in the community. Lots to do in Elijjay and close by Blue Ridge. Beautiful cabin with lots of room for our family.

Beautiful home with nice furnishings. Very comfortable with plenty of room to gather as a family but to also have some privacy. Great place for fishing, playing in the water, tubing, or just relaxing. Such a great spot, in fact, that other visitors to the area use the river bank for entering or exiting the water. Host was very attentive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely rent this home again.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful! We loved that it overlooked the water and that it was shallow enough for the kids to walk into and play in. It’s the perfect secluded area in the woods if you’re looking for relaxation and some quality time with your family/friends. The property manager was great and made sure there were no issues with our stay. We would definitely come back in the future!

I was impressed at how clean and nicely decorated the cabin is. The view and water access are amazing! The kitchen was fully stocked with all the necessities for preparing your own meals, which we found helpful as the trip to town was a good 15 minutes away. The only negative feedback I have is that when in the downstairs bedrooms, you can hear too well any little noise or walking in the upstairs area, we used a sound machine which was helpful.
