Beautiful scenery
The property was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. And the view was amazing. Only negative thing was the dirt road. 4 wheel drive would have helped. But the property description was honest. Would definitely like to revisit.

Picture Perfect Getaway
We stayed 2 nights and wish we could have stayed much longer. The cabin was spotless, well equipped, and the screened porch and deck were delightful for relaxing. A lovely master suite with comfy king bed and gorgeous shower made for a great stay. Molly was attentive and let us know she was available if we needed anything. We will definitely be back!

Great Escape!
Everything as advertized and more. The little things that you really don't think of were right there. We grilled a bit and when we ran out of the propane, there was another canister ready to be used without having to contact anyone. Notes to let you know anything you need. For us it was a time to decompress. The porch is a great place for morning breakfast and coffee. Many thanks for everything.

Peaceful mountain time
This cabin was a great place for a relaxing mountain getaway. It was quiet and the views were awesome. The interior is comfortable and well equipped, and the two porches were just right for contemplative time. Molly is a great host - available and responsive.

Beautiful home!
This is our second visit and we were just as pleased! Great, clean, comfortable home. Very private, beautiful views and nice walk to see the horses. We also got to see the first snow flurries of the season. The road up/down to the house may be a bit tricky for first timers but you get used to it. Ellijay is a cute little town with shops and places to eat. Thanks Molly for sharing your beautiful place!

Peace and quiet galore!
Great mountain getaway! All you need for a wonderful stay. House is comfortable and the kitchen has everything you might need…not always the case in rentals. It’s a bit off the beaten path and well worth the drive both for the scenery and the quiet it affords. This was our second stay and are already looking to book again next year. Happy campers!
