Enjoyable weekend
Nice place - kitchen and bath well stocked. Furnace worked very well for a cold weekend! As pictured, but I must say very sparsely decorated. Honestly, a few bedside lamps in the downstairs bedroom would be much appreciated, as would an area rug and bath rug on the cold tile floor. And a few more lamps upstairs. Hard to read in the evening with just the overhead light.

Water Pressure was basically a Trickle in the Main Bathroom
Though I was provided with an entry code, I was flagged down to check-in with the community association, a requirement that was not previously communicated to me. The person I presume was an association employee took the opportunity to lecture me extensively on the community rules and then proceeded to write down my name, my license plate number and the address of the VRBO. After checking in, I received an automated text inquiring about the quality of my check-in experience. I replied with a photo and a note, pointing out that the pillows in the main floor bedroom were discovered on the floor next to the bed. I was met with a boilerplate response, thanking me for my feedback but offering no clarification or resolution about the pillow situation. As a result, I was left questioning whether the pillowcases were clean or not, especially since no alternative pillowcases were available. In the lower-level bedroom, the ceiling fan was noticeably dated, to the extent that the blades were visibly drooping. The water pressure in the master bathroom was disappointingly inadequate. Both the sink and the shower offered little more than a feeble stream, which impacted the overall experience. The cabin delivered on most of the promises made in the listing. However, if water pressure is important to you, I would recommend staying somewhere else.

I loved the quiet and the relaxation of the cabin and of the town. I would have loved it a lot more if it wasn't so high up 😂. Let's just say I did some major praying get up to the cabin but loved everything about it once I was there. So if you are comfortable with that type of drive, I highly recommend. The cabin was fully equipped with EVERYTHING you needed for your stay.

Great weekend getaway
It was a super quiet property. The upstairs was perfect! Modern cabin and super clean and smelled fresh. The downstairs had a bit of a funny smell, musty or something, but it’s a cabin in the woods so it’s to be expected. It’s miles better than the last cabin we rented where the smell was over bearing and permeated throughout the house. The kids ages 9 and 10 had a blast swinging on vines climbing up and down the hill and rolling a truck down the hill. It really was the perfect weekend. One other thing, although the cabin was super clean, there were a couple spiders in one of the bathrooms when we got there. So if your kids aren’t used to that. You might want to send an adult in to clear them out. Once they were safely outside, we didn’t have any other unexpected guests. The cabin is within 15 minutes of some delicious BBQ and other civilization (Walmart, Etc.). Thanks again. We really had a terrific stay!

Fun & lots to do.
Fan in master - could not turn off light with out turning off fan too. Making it hot . Used boxes fan downstairs because it was hot. Really enjoyed screened porch in morning & evening. Very pretty looking down into the woods. About 9:00-9:30 in the morning a small black bear would come through but not to close to the cabin. We didn't cook but looks like you have everything to Cook with. We went to Blairsville for a car show first day. .Next day Helen need a full day for this as we went to the Swan Drive-in afterwards. Made for a really long day. We needed one more day to relax & enjoy the cabin & immediate area.

My stay in the cabin
Pros - So the cabin is fine. It's had some new renovations recently. It is smaller as advertised no hot tub or grill. New baths. Decent beds. Cons - Each window has years of cobwebs built up in between the screens and the window. Like massive amounts. On the Deck the outside of it is covered in massive amounts of cobwebs. The outside of this home has not been cleaned in years. There are rotten boards/siding on the front side and back falling off. - needs some outdoor attention bad.

Great neighborhood and proximity to Downtown Ellijay. However, Gigantic spiders in the lower bedroom and bathroom. No hot water to the lower bathroom. And the den area wasn’t comfortable. Has potential, just needs a little attention.

We had such a great weekend and will definitely be back. We loved the location—small gated community with a small swing set for our little to play on. We also loved the screened in porch with the gas fire pit! Very clean and perfect getaway for the weekend.
