Communication from the host was excellent. The house is clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The driveway is not for the faint of heart with some steep foot steps required to get to and from the house. So I wouldn't recommend this for anyone with mobility issues but I believe that is pointed out in the listing. The view of the lake is great and we loved listening to the sounds of the frogs singing. Overall we had an excellent stay and I highly recommend the property.

Hi Hoss, we're glad you enjoyed the location, but we're sorry that you experienced some issues during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: "We're sorry about the bugs - this time of year is challenging. We have had our exterminator come out extra times to spray. I’ll ask our house cleaner about the towels. Thanks for staying with us!"
My family really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. The property was very convenient to downtown Ellijay, tubing, hiking, and dining. My kids loved the setup with the upstairs bedroom, and the game room was a hit! They also enjoyed fishing in the pond. Our group of 6 had plenty of room to spread out. The cabin had a nice selection of books and games. It was very comfortable and super clean!

We definitely had a week of fun in Ellijay and a large portion of that fun was certainly from our cozy stay! There was plenty to do at the cabin itself (including the foosball, air hockey, and pool tables that are displayed in the photos). Our kids enjoyed catching and releasing the tiny frogs they found on the property and the deer that came to visit us nightly! The kitchen was well-stocked and the beds were comfortable. Everyone slept well! The only disappointment in our stay was that there were no bunk beds in the upstairs bedroom, which was implied in one of the photo captions. The middle story deck provides a whimsical, treehouse feel and made the perfect setting for morning coffee. The driveway is not for the faint of heart! It's a steep descent, but worth the journey.
