A hit, with a serious caveat
After we booked it, the owner rung in another charge for a pet. and wouldn't respond about it. We liked the house, but we had, as one of our requirements a fireplace--the fireplace was sealed, and there was a gas stove in its place--not the same. Also, we got there in pitch darkness. About 2 in the morning the power went out. We called 91, hoping they would at least call the utility, but the wouldn.t We called the emergency number and got two clicks: an answer and an immediate hangup. We enjoyed the rest of the stay, but if you book it, just know your communications are over. Liked Ellijay and the local cider places and taverns were great.

Overall
Though the stay I was pretty disappointed. When we arrived, we found the location to be significantly further by an hour to an hour and half than what was listed online. Once we arrived, we found mold in the coffee pot that we had to clean, bottle caps in the downstairs bathroom, and issues with some lighting. Do be warned that it does get significantly hotter in the downstairs bedroom with little ventilation. As listed there is only one TV in the house which is in the downstairs bedroom. So if traveling with guests then be warned. So overall, the cleanliness was poor for the amount we had to pay. I would say how much but apparently I can’t disclose that, we stay for 2 days and the drive to get anywhere was really poor. Overall just upset with it.

The cutest cabin with all you need for a quiet getaway was just what this place offers. All I needed was my clothes and food if you wanted to cook there. It was clean and the owners were very helpful. Very easy process and stay❤️

I want to live on that porch swing!
We had a fantastic stay here, for my husband's birthday in July. And the property owner was in contact with us to give us guidance about the area's activities and restaurants, which was SO helpful. We have 2 kids and 2 dogs with us, and the property was enjoyed by ALL of us. And that view...and the porch swing/bed! I spent a lot of time on that, in pure bliss. We also saw a black bear in the woods below the house (while we were safely on the screened in porch). The whole experience was lovely. One note of caution about July: watch out for ticks.

Couldn’t imagine a better place!
Everything was clean, functional, super cute. I’ve been to my share of vrbo type places and none were as welcoming as this. There was coffee, firewood, toiletries. We could’ve left home with the clothes on our backs and been perfectly comfortable. Everyone was so friendly and the area is perfect.

not couples retreat friendly
The cabin was marketed as good for a couples retreat however, we found many issues which did not align with the idea that it was good for couples. In the living room/common use room, there isn’t enough furniture (one chair and a sofa). If four people were in there together, three would be sitting on the sofa looking at the one person in the chair- not good for conversation. There isn’t a TV in the public living area!! We certainly came to Ellijay to take advantage of the outdoors but we did still want to have a TV to watch football. There aren’t any lamps in the living room which makes reading difficult during the day and even more so in the morning or evening. There is an area upstairs that would make a perfect reading room and a chance for couples to have time apart during the weekend but that area is completely bare of furniture. In the bedroom, there needs to be a night table with a lamp on each side of the bed. It is not uncommon for one person to stay up later than the other and individual bedside lamps are needed. There aren’t any dressers in the bedrooms to put clothes in. In the bathrooms, there were only 4 bath towels and 2 hand towels for 4 guests for a long weekend. The bathrooms were minimally stocked with toilet paper. The kitchen was really lacking. There wasn’t a cutting board. There weren’t any dish towels or dish cloths. There weren’t any trash bags. There wasn’t an adequate supply of silverware or dishes. We had to run the dishwasher after every meal so that there would be enough silverware and utensils for the next meal. The silverware and dishes that were there were lacking. There weren’t any soup spoons or tea spoons, the forks were like child size forks and the plates were small. At the firepit, the furniture again did not fit the idea of a couples retreat since there were only 2 chairs. There is a timer on the downstairs bathroom light that is jarring when making trips to the bathroom during the night. And there is an outdoor light that is on an unavailable switch that shines into the downstairs bedroom all night. The window needs blackout curtains to make rest possible there. The 24 hour contact basically told us “sorry” about any issues we contacted him about. We were able to address some of the issues ourselves because we hunted through an upstairs closet and found trash bags; we found unwashed kitchen towels and washed those; we found paper towels and toilet paper in an outside storage un

Anniversary
Only the one tv, and it being in the guest bedroom was an issue. Normally, that wouldn’t be an issue but with the location, we didn’t want to be out after dark, and it is football season. There was dog hair on the bed, the ice maker wasn’t working and the dryer would not shut off unless we left the door ajar.

wonderful!
This is one of the best stays I've experienced -- The cabin is comfortable, cozy, and very clean. The screened-in porch, swing, and view of mountains in the distance are awesome! The porch is the perfect place to read, nap, or just listen to birdsong, rain, and the burbling creek below. Great kitchen; great bath; so nice to have access to laundry machines. The location is good -- quiet and peaceful and remote enough to feel like you are getting away from it all, but within a short drive of many great hikes, sites, and cute towns. The property manager and owner were both quick to respond to questions and provided many helpful suggestions. I wish I had booked a longer stay!

One of our favorites
We have traveled to this area twice per year for about 4 years. This is definitely one of the best homes we’ve stayed in. Very peaceful and quite. Loved the swing on the back porch! Lots of little details that made us feel like the owners cared very much about our experience. We plan to stay here again!

Absolutely staying again
Beautiful country drive, the house looks exactly like the pictures (bonus). The view from the swing on the back porch is breath taking. Did the lazy river tubing with Cartacay experience, they were amazing. Hiking to the Amicalola Falls ( one of GA seven wonders) was just a short distance drive. My teen daughter's absolutely enjoyed the no cell service unless on wifi, had to peel them off the swing. Fully furnished, extra blankets, pillows, everything you could possibly need, beautifully decorated.

Check-in was a little shaky, but everything else went smoothly! The porch swing and views are amazing! Beds are comfortable and living areas are inviting. Pictures are exactly accurate. One suggestion would be to add a pizza pan but the kitchen had everything else we could have needed. Very clean and loved the soft linens. We enjoyed our stay!
