we have rented cabins in several different states and this
one is one of if not the best one we have rented. It is convenient to the town and shopping. We totally enjoyed our stay and are talking about renting it again

We loved staying at this cabin! There was plenty of room for our group to eat and enjoy an evening around the fire. The beds are comfortable and 3 bathrooms made getting ready very easy and quick. We mostly enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the river go by and the numerous deer that came by each day. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Cabin was very clean, plenty of sleeping area, huge bathrooms. It was great having the game room downstairs along with the hot tub. Outside fire pit area was easy to enjoy and the kids loved playing in the river trying to catch crawfish. Overall a great place to stay!

This beautiful cabin with an even more beautiful location was a wonderful escape. Nights by the fire, days on the river or just relaxing with a book made this stay one our family will remember always.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cabin. There was plenty of room for my our family of 5 (14, 15, 16 yo kids), the kitchen and baths were well stocked, house was clean, beds comfy, in a quiet and secluded place along the river. River access was a big plus as it allowed us to do some fly fishing when it wasn’t raining. The porches are amazing with fantastic mountain and river views. The owner was very communicative and pro active with sharing information. Pet friendly with easy check I /out instructions. Coosawatee river is one of our favorite spots!

We enjoyed this cabin very much. There was plenty of room, the porch was great to sit out and enjoy the sound of the river. River access was nice. We had one issue with the hot tub not heating up but I messaged the host and he responded right away with how to fix it, which worked, so we were happy. I would definitely stay here again, we love this area as well!

Place and location was perfect. Waterfront, awesome backyard with amazing river views. Deer just about everywhere you look.
Loved the 2nd level deck! We spent a lot of time on the deck. Beds were very very comfortable. Having 3 full bathrooms for all 3 bedrooms was so nice!!
Definitely recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed the property and the surrounding area. The adults enjoyed the relaxing sound of the river while on the deck or sitting around the fire pit was very relaxing. The kids really enjoyed fishing, tubing and playing in the river. The house was very well equipped with kitchen, bed and bath supplies. Highly recommend this house me for anyone looking to stay in the ellijay/blue ridge area

The cabin was gorgeous and cozy. We loved waking up to hear the river and sitting on the porch listening to the birds. As a Floridian the roads were pretty intimidating but in no way ruined our overall experience. The location was excellent close enough to pick up forgotten essentials and a reasonable distance from attractions.
