About this property

"The Knotty Pine" - Your perfect cabin getaway!

Welcome to the beautiful Knotty Pine in Ellijay, Georgia! When we walked into this cabin for the first time, we knew it had to be ours. Now it can be yours, and you can fall in love with the cabin just like we did! The Knotty Pine offers everything you could want for your north Georgia getaway. First and foremost, it's a true cabin, inside and out. Sometimes you see homes listed as "cabins" or "cottages," but they're really just homes in the woods. When we say cabin, we mean cabin! Don't believe us, just look at the pictures!

As soon as you step in the front door, your stress will melt away. A large living space with vaulted ceilings is just the beginning. Add in a beautiful gas fireplace and you've already got your perfect weekend retreat. A nice size kitchen with all the amenities, plus a nice family eating area (also perfect for puzzles and games!).

There is a large bedroom with a king size bed on the main floor. It includes a big walk-in closet as well as a full bath just across the hallway. The second bedroom is upstairs, with a queen size bed and an en suite bathroom.

Did we mention the beautiful loft space? No? OK, we have a BEAUTIFUL loft space that is great spot for reading or even getting a little work done at the desk. You could even bring an air mattress and sleep a couple more in that space. We have a futon up there to get you started!

Let's head outside. The Knotty Pine has a massive porch that wraps 3/4 of the way around the house. Our property is nestled in a deer sanctuary, so you will likely see plenty of bucks, does and little fawns during your stay.

Bottom line, if you're looking for a getaway, short or long, The Knotty Pine is the perfect place for you. We absolutely cannot wait for you to enjoy this property. And if you come once, we're almost positive you'll come back! See you soon!

Our second stay here!

This was our 2nd stay at The Knotty Pine and we were just as happy with it as the first time we stayed last year! The area is a great "hub" location to visit other areas, like Newfound Gap, Blue Ridge, wineries, etc. We plan to make this a yearly tradition here. The cabin is always very clean and has everything needed, just bring clothes and food!

Love The Knotty Pine Cabin

The Knotty Pine Cabin was the perfect place for our girl's weekend. Everything was very clean and we had everything we needed to make our meals. We loved the deer and their fawns who came daily. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely cabin

Cabin is very cozy, the Christmas tree was very welcoming. Cabin was clean. The beat board was the daily visits from the deer, fed them fruits since we didn’t have anything else to feed them. They loved it! I I reached out to the owner with a couple of questions and he answered promptly and was pleasant about it! It was a very nice stay. Highly recommend it!

Great Peaceful Getaway!

Our family enjoyed exploring northern Georgia and staying as this sweet little cabin. The deer visited us throughout our stay, despite the "neighborhood" like population of humans. We enjoyed the pool areas within the community and all the orchards and wineries nearby as well.

Perfect getaway

Cabin was exactly as pictured & described. Location was perfect for trips to Merciers in Blue Ridge & visiting the shops on the square in Ellijay. We bought carrots to feed the deer & they came early am & dinner time. We had 10 to feed one day. Josh was prompt in texting about lighting the pilot on the fireplace. One of my favorite places that I have stayed. Will definitely return.
