Gem iin LIJ

My wife and our two children. (12 and 4) spent 5 days in this stunning house. It is perfectly located 2 minutes from downtown but still feels secluded. The hosts are top notch and were amazing to work with. The house was incredibly comfortable with much attention detail. It is obviouls the hosts are committed to their guests and take great care in providing fantastic amenities. I would highly recommend this property.

Family Time

Had a great time with our kids. Was nice to put the screens down and have some quality time together. Ellijay is great tons of outdoor adventures, and good food. House location is stellar and the River in backyard was our happy place. We caught a fish back there wasn’t expecting that. Yard big enough to play sports.

Summer Getaway

The traveling sports activities have stopped for the summer break, so we wanted to go to North Georgia for ours. This is a nice house and is well equipped. The location is great and the river is excellent. Our friends were very impressed with house and its setting. Overall, a good time was had!

Great Stay!

Beautiful modern cabin with all of the luxuries, fun fire pit, and great outdoor entertainment areas! Super cute property. River was nice too! the only thing I would add is a privacy fence or a long row of trees to divide this getaway from the neighbors:) Overall it was a wonderful stay!

Perfect Getaway!

The property has a HUGE backyard, for activities. We made use of the firepit a couple nights, and one of our friends went fly fishing in the creek! The house was very clean and stocked with anything you needed. We ended up cooking and grilling every night at the house instead of eating out, because it just felt like home! It was in a perfect location, close to everything including one of the most beautiful falls we have ever seen! Make sure you visit Amicalola Falls! Loved everything about our getaway. We will definitely be coming back!

Even better than the pictures!

We stayed at this property for 3 nights and wished we had booked it longer!. We wanted a place we would not all be on top of each other crammed in..we wanted our kids to be entertained while adults visited. This was accomplished quite nicely!..Plenty of places to spread out to eat a meal, and entertain. Decor is wonderful with calming paint color choices and artwork we all quite enjoyed. Indoor and Outdoor spaces flow together on seating and entertainment. Fire pit out by the river was very relaxing. Very accommodating check in and check out process. Very close to shopping and restaurants. Owners have created their own webpage to refer to if you have any questions during your stay. We referred to it many times and found it very helpful. We are already starting to put together our next trip so we can get it booked! Excited to come back to this property!

Exceptional Ellijay Retreat

We stayed during Fall and this home made our stay perfect. The location is an easy drive to everywhere. The yard is huge and perfect for outdoor activities. We enjoyed fishing also. The hot tub and downstairs sitting area is so nice to have with family.All the beds were comfy. The hosts were easily reached and helped us quickly when needed.The only consideration I would make is if anyone in your party has difficulty with stairs or getting up from a sitting position the living room furniture is super comfortable but tough to get out of and obviously . The hosts really pay attention to detail and we will stay here again.

A stones throw from downtown Ellijay

Brian is a very communicative and gracious host. He went out of his way to accommodate some of our special circumstances. His home is both beautifully appointed, and thoughtfully laid out. Take the time out of your schedule to rejuvenate yourself in the mountains. This is a can’t miss property. We will be back!

We had a great time! The house was well-equipped with everything we needed as well as many great “bonus features”! We enjoyed fishing in the river in the backyard, cooking s’mores in the bonfire, the hot tub was amazing on a cool evening, and the bunk room was perfect for the kids!

About the host

Hosted by Brian and Stefanie

Host profile image
Brian and Stefanie personally manage the Ellijay River Retreat. Since this is our own personal cabin, we are very selective about who we let stay here. When we select someone to stay, you are our personal guest as if you're friends or family. We want you to have the absolute best experience. This is not an investment property managed by a property management company, you are our guest!

Were looking for a beach house but stumbled on this new mountain modern cabin in the City of Ellijay. We fell in love with the cabin and the City of Ellijay. The people are so nice. Brian is an Engineer and Stefanie a medical provider, so attention to detail is part of our fabric. When you first walk into the cabin you will see that immediately!

Why they chose this property

There is no other cabin that offers what the Ellijay River Retreat offers! New Mountain Modern Cabin quietly nestled on the Ellijay River within the city limits of the City of Ellijay, literally walking distance from downtown. (We don't recommend walking since the cabin is on curvy road with no margin). This cabin is not in a neighborhood and you will not see tubers and kayakers going by all day long. There is a huge grass field between the house and the river for kids to run and play. High speed internet for streaming movies or working on the internet. A local photographer that takes listing photographs of hundreds of local cabins, said it was one of the most beautiful cabins he has ever seen. Everything in this house is top of the line. The kitchen is has everything you could possibly need. There are 2 full sized refrigerators, one on each floor. The 6 person premium hot tub always has new water and amazing lights and sound system. You will not find a cleaner cabin!

What makes this property unique

If you like Blue Ridge, you will love Ellijay, it is the best of Blue Ridge without all the traffic and crowds! There is so much to do in and around Ellijay, we have been going there for over a year and barely scratch the surface. We never go to Blue Ridge anymore. Favorite activities, river tubing, shopping, and visiting the many vineyards. Shops and Restaurants in Ellijay are 2nd to none. Everything you could possibly want to do is within a few minutes of this cabin.
