Heaven on earth. Our dream home!Checking in was seamless. The house was beautiful and exceeded our expectations . Had a fully functional kitchen with gas burners. We left most of the windows open to hear the creek just outside the house. We relaxed in the evenings grilling, playing on the pool table downstairs in the game room then stepped outside and enjoyed the fire around the fire pit sitting next to the flowing creek just steps down. Our two small pups loved the creek hikes!!Also enjoyed our hike to Long Creek Falls - worth the drive and hike!Thanks to our host Steven for making our stay the absolute best - memories we’ll have forever

Overall great cabin. Plenty of sleeping accommodations. There were options for entertainment with a pool table, video games, board games, corn hole, hot tub. Outdoor fire pit was great for the colder weather. Kitchen was good and was fully stocked with the essentials. Cooking pans should be replaced as a number of them had the nonstick coating that was very pitted and scratched off.Plenty of seating areas to watch TV or movies. Couches are need of a replacement as the cushions were pretty worn and some torn in a few places. Owner was great with communications and easily to get in touch with for any questions or concerns.Definitely recommend the private cabin.

The view is awesome from the huge windows in the great room! The creek is so relaxing and beautiful.I was told the house would be decorated for Christmas as this was a Christmas trip for my family and they didn't have anything decorated, not even a Christmas tree.The master bedroom is wonderful and cozy. The fireplace and view is so relaxing. My brother fell down the stairs outside because the grips stop about 8-10 steps from the bottom and it was raining.Parking is tight if you have 3 vehicles. The game room is lots of fun. The loft area was great for the littles.Pots and pans could use some upgrading, but we did find one to use that was in decent condition. They provide some spices and seasonings which is nice.The couches could use some TLC and the gutters need to be cleaned out. I loved that they provided dog bowls for food & water. They also provide baby gates for the stairs and a high chair for littles. That was nice.Overall we had a great trip! Thank you for sharing your cabin with my family.

This property was one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed. The creek was an awesome backyard view, and the sound of flowing water was great when relaxing after a long day. The host, Steven was prompt and very communicative. Check-in / check-out was made easy with the digital lock, and there were plenty of amenities that kept my family and toddler busy. We had so much fun!

Forest Views

As mentioned by others, communication with host was excellent! Cabin was spacious and comfortable. The views of the forest and creek from the ginormous living room window are beautiful! The game room has many card games and puzzles, as well as the arcade games shown in the listing photos. The backyard area could use a little extra attention to really make that space feel more inviting and the outdoor furniture could be cleaner, but we understand it's in the middle of the forest so not sure how realistic that is. We had a good time regardless! The water in the creek was clear and shallow so the kids were able to explore and search for salamanders and crawfish every day. The sound of the running water in the creek was the best part for me. I loved sitting by the water just enjoying the sound. Worth noting- there are stairs everywhere! You WILL leave this cabin with your calves being in PEAK condition! Also worth noting-the driveway is a little tricky if you're in a bigger car, and it is a STEEP incline getting in and out of the driveway.

Weekend retreat

This property is beautiful. Great spaces for a group to gather with a large kitchen and living room as well as the game and movie room downstairs. Plenty of beds with clean sheets. Two queen beds, a king, in addition to the bunk beds, trundle, and full bed in the loft. There was everything we ne needed to cook, plenty of pots and utensils, a gas grill and extra propane, and small appliances like a blender and hand mixer. The driveway was very steep but not unsafe. We didn't have any trouble getting to the parking area or back out. Everything was very clean, no dust or cobwebs, just a dirty pot a previous guest hid in the back of a cabinet. Totally a guest issue, not host neglect. There were some nice touches from the host like chocolates and coffee when we checked in. ked in.

The whole family loved all the aspects of this creek side cabjn retreat. So much space for all the family and room to spare. Loved all the fun activities offered such as the pool table, games, fire pit and hot tub. The paved driveway was a plus. Distanced so you feel remote but still close to Ellijay with great restaurants, shopping, hiking and entertainment. Very helpful and communicative owner.

Just returned from a week's stay

My wife and I (and the pup) just returned from a week's stay at the cabin. The owner was very responsive during the entire booking process and stay. The house is clean and very quiet. We loved the game room. The town of Ellijay is only a 20 minute drive away. And there are many hiking trails if you're willing to drive a little further. Oh, we visited all of the local wineries as well. I'd highly recommend this property for a getaway.

Lack of Resources

Mother Nature struck during our stay. A nasty thunderstorm rolled through and knocked out the power which turned off the water. We searched the house for candles, flashlights, batteries etc. and none to be found. We were not offered a solution from the owner for the lack of electricity and water. Needless to say we had to cut our trip short. We asked for a refund for The final night which we were not able to stay at the house. And were told that the owner is not responsible for inclement weather and would take our request for a refund into consideration. since then we have had no further communication. We also chose the property due to the outdoor amenities. We were looking forward to spending time outside and by the water. We had to physically clean the deck and furniture to be able to utilize the outdoor space because it was so dirty. We are long time VRBO users and this was first time we’ve been disappointed.

Great place to reconnect and recharge

The cabin was everything we hoped for. Each day was started with the sound of the rushing creek before we took our dog walking along the trails nearby. We loved the pool table and likely spent more time there than anywhere else in the house. The fire pit and hot tub were also a huge draw for us in the evenings. The cabin is perfectly located between downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge which both have great dining and shopping.
