From the owner: "Thank you so much for your great review. Glad that you enjoyed your stay."
First, let me say the house was beautiful, clean and had everything needed. The negatives for our group was in the pictures it shows the creek banks to be mowed and property taking care of. We booked this property to enjoy the creek. It is now grown up all but one tiny spot. The bottom line is if you are there to just stay in the house, it's great. If you want to fish and enjoy the creek find something else.
Hi Victoria, The homeowners were saddened to read your review, as they are accustomed to providing 5-star experiences, and would like to clarify the following:
- Thank you for choosing to stay in our Ellijay, Georgia home and leaving a review, as guest feedback is vitally important to us and the success of our vacation rental business.
- The listing does highlight the creekside location, but it does not advertise the property as a fishing retreat or guarantee fishing access.
- The photos were taken shortly after construction during the winter months when vegetation was minimal. Over time, wildflowers, bushes, and ferns have naturally grown around the property, contributing to the lush landscape.
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources prohibits clearing vegetation along trout streams, which includes the creek at the property. For this reason, the area surrounding the creek is intentionally preserved.
- A small, cleared section of the creek is available for children to play in, but there are no plans to further clear vegetation along the creek.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests
The property has wonderful appeal as you pull up with a nice exterior and beautiful landscaping. Once inside, it only get better as it's an upscale mountain lodge decor with high ceilings and a chef's kitchen. All new appliances with gas (a chef's dream!). The back porch is well equipped with a fire pit and very nice grill overlooking the most beautiful and serene mountain creek. Would come back and stay 10/10 times. Highly recommend.

From the owner: "Thank you for the great review. Hope to see you again!"
We had an amazing time! The cabin is located on a gravel road right outside town giving it the feel of being completely off the grid. We did not have cell service, but the internet worked perfectly. Inside, it is spotless with more than enough room for our family of 5. Our three boys loved playing in the creek during the day and catching lightning bugs at night. Kurt left fresh eggs in the refrigerator before we arrived and even dropped off some summer veggies on the porch for us to enjoy with dinner. The boys began asking to come back on our next vacation before we had even finished this one! Highly recommend!
From the owner: "Thank you for your great review. In the cottage, cell phones will work well through the Wi-Fi, but out along the road, service is sketchy. From the cottage to the square in Ellijay, it is exactly 10 miles but only about 15 minutes. We are glad your children enjoyed the creek and all the outside activities the area has to offer. Please come back soon."
My mother lived on this same road for many years and her best friend still does. The Cottage was smack dab between their places. My daughter grew up playing in the creek and my grandson continued that on our vacation. The Cottage was ideal, perfectly appointed & relaxing yet so much to do. Trying to catch crawdads, chasing fireflies for the first time, seeing deer & bear tracks, going to the farmers market, apple house & making s’mores. My family & I loved it and loved showing my grandkids a beautiful, simpler way of life. Hated to leave!
From the owner: "Thank you for the great review. We are happy that you had such a wonderful time at the Cottage and visiting around Ellijay. Come back again".
