Pondside Porch House

ChrisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I’m tempted to write a bad review so more dates will be available when I’m ready to come back. This was our 2nd visit and it was great again. So much to do without leaving the house. Fishing, kayaking, volleyball, badminton, ping pong, foosball, fire pit, board games, etc. Great price too! The only problem this time was that the WiFi was a bit spotty, even after a couple resets. Probably for the best though! Looking forward to our next visit soon hopefully.

Absolutely wonderful! It was just my husband and I, but this place would be awesome for families or several couples. Lots of room, fun games, well stocked. The views are incredible - so peaceful and relaxing while staring at the mountains and the lake. Highly recommend!

~ Hacienda Roja ~ Mountain Retreat ~

DarlaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Our Family stayed at the Hacienda Roja for a Christmas Vacation and we loved the place. We had a wonderful time there. There were plenty of things to keep everyone entertained (including teens) and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. We didn't even leave the house once we arrived. The house was clean and beautiful. It has an amazing view from the deck. We would definitely stay there again.

“Happy Hours”, family lake front home

BradRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We stayed here for Thanksgiving, and it was pretty cold, but well worth it. Being on the lake, makes me want to come back, with the boat, in the summer, to fully enjoy it. Great place, and will hopefully be back.

Riverbend Manor Retreat

JeffreyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The location was unique and amazing. It was remote and very peaceful, away from all the fast paced norms of life but still close enough to have the amenities of a small town with shops and restaurants. Close to the river where it was great for fishing and seeing wildlife and just a general walk in the evening. Lauren was incredibly responsive and the house itself was great with a great layout for the family and many places to enjoy. If you are looking to get away from the stresses of everyday life (still have wifi if you need to check your emails etc.) this is the place for you, you won't regret it.

Amazing Riverfront Bungalow with mountain views!

MeganRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Loved staying at this cute little bungalow in Hiawassee. The river view from the bedroom and right outside the back porch was the cherry on top. The neighborhood it sits in is very quiet with friendly neighbors. The home was stocked with all the right items for everything we needed for a weekend away. Adam was very responsive to our questions. We will always have a special place in our heart for this home as it was the weekend I got engaged on top of Brasstown Bald which is also a must see. Have been asked about this specific listing 6-7 times since we’ve left from my social media video of the place and I’ve sent them all the link. Hoping they all get to experience the same delightful weekend (or longer) that we did. I think we’ll be back.

Ole Mexico

WanneraRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Upon arrival was great considering i had to come to check in late at night with no problems. Very simple straightforward directions to location. Location was very clean, homey, and cozy. Has a nice back porch to enjoy outside air with seatings which is a plus. We were able to cook meals, watch movies, make desserts, and sleep in a comfortable bed! Me and my girlfriend loved this place so much and exceeding our original expectations.

Pet friendly cabin in the trees - Blue Ridge

AnnaleaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I absolutely loved my stay here. The drive is definitely hilly but the road is paved, so no problems there. The house was clean and cozy and the beds comfortable. My favorite part was relaxing on the screened porch while the rain gently fell and I could hear all the toads from the nearby pond. There’s some close-by neighbors but the trees afford privacy and the elevation made us feel well above everything. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit one night while we roasted hot dogs and smores and star gazed. The best part of course is the fenced yard. My dog Darla had so much more space to chase the ball than our yard in the burbs and my older dog Gus loved patrolling the perimeter, spying on squirrels and wood peckers. We will absolutely come here again the next time we need a break from the city.

StackRock Cabin-An Exclusive Retreat

JoshRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This cabin was a great find. We stayed here for the weekend and it didn’t disappoint. Private lot, play structure for kids and even some toys for them to play with. I will say that I do recommend taking a truck or suv. The road to the cabin is a little bumpy and unpaved but we had no trouble getting to the cabin. We would definitely stay again if we travel back to Ellijay!

Mountain Laurel Cabin, Pond, Folk School Dish Wifi

MaxRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The cabin has a cozy feeling and is located nice and secluded at the end of a neighborhood, with plenty of privacy. Due to the weather we did not get to enjoy the outside but the bonfire looks like a great place to sit outside with family or friends. When booking, we didn’t realize the upstairs bedroom does not have a door, although this did not bother us because it was just my wife and I. We would go definitely come back here. Host was friendly and easy to communicate with.

May The Course Be With You

ShannonRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
When we first arrived, my husband was trying to play Pac-Man, it wouldn’t turn on, so we messaged Virgil. He responded quickly. We noticed it was a little warm so we turned the air down, only to find out that night that the AC wasn’t working right. Virgil was very attentive and made it right the very next morning. We had cold air again. The place was welcoming and was just as described. Beautiful home. The hot tub was nice. It’s right next to the golf course. We saw deer, Didn’t see any bear. He has books to help with things to do and/or go eat. Great host, for sure!!

Your guide to Ellijay

All About Ellijay

Located at the junction of the Ellijay and Cartecay rivers around 1.5 hours north of Atlanta, the small town of Ellijay is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Although considered a quiet mountain spot, Ellijay has a lively downtown area, with antique stores and outfitters where visitors come to gear up for adventures on the Appalachian Trail. It’s not uncommon to hear live music drifting out of one of the restaurants or bars.

While Ellijay’s historic downtown has much to offer, the town’s surroundings make it a popular place to visit. Georgia may be known for its juicy peaches, but Ellijay is celebrated for delicious apples, earning it the nickname Apple Capital of Georgia. In spring, the orchards are covered in apple blossoms, while fall offers many U-Pick opportunities, where you can wander through the rows of trees to choose the sweetest fruit. The calm flowing waters of the Ellijay and Cartecay rivers are popular for tubing and relaxing dips, while the Blue Ridge Mountains are a renowned hiking and biking destination, with miles of trails leading through the mature wooded areas up steep inclines to spectacular viewpoints.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Ellijay

Due to its slight elevation, the climate in Ellijay is generally mild compared to the weather in other Southern cities. Summers are warm without getting extremely hot, and winters tend to be cool rather than freezing. Although the weather tends to be fairly comfortable year-round, late spring and early fall are excellent times to stay at cabins in Ellijay, Georgia. Not only is the climate pleasant enough to explore the miles of hiking and biking trails, it is also a popular time for events and festivals in the area — like the Georgia Apple Festival, which is Ellijay’s largest annual event. During this popular October celebration of the fall season and the apple harvest, you’ll find live entertainment; apple pies, dumplings, and doughnuts; handmade crafts and gifts; and a parade.

Amicalola Falls State Park

Just 25 minutes southeast of town lies Amicalola Falls State Park, best known for its 729-foot waterfall, the largest in Georgia.
