-- The Space

This dream location is close to the attractions of Ellijay, GA, but a million miles away from it all! The perfect place to call home while you are away! THIS is what a vacation should feel like!

This professionally designed and recently updated mountain retreat is just what you need for a cozy couple(s) trip or a memory-making family fun get-away. From morning sunrises over the mountains to cozy evenings with s'mores by the fire pit or indoor fireplace, and a starlit dip in the hot tub you will not be disappointed with this cabin!

Spend your days exploring nearby hiking trails, chasing waterfalls, relaxing at wineries/breweries, and shopping in quaint downtown Ellijay. Then return to the cabin for an evening cocktail on the lower party porch with a custom bar and a beautiful mountain view.

While you may not want to cook on vacation, it will be so easy, and maybe even enjoyable in our fully stocked and recently renovated (Quartz countertops) kitchen. Or, grill on the back deck while you continue to enjoy the stupendous mountain views.

The 2 king en-suites seamlessly combine modern luxury with quaint rustic charm. The beds and linens are soft and inviting, each room has a smart TV, USB ports on the nightstands, and an attached bath with toiletries provided.

Great Cabin

Our stay at Marilyn's cabin was absolutely fantastic! The journey up the long, twisty mountain road set the tone for a peaceful and secluded getaway. The cabin was spotless upon arrival and fully stocked with everything we needed, which made settling in effortless. We especially loved spending evenings by the fire pit and relaxing in the hot tub—both were highlights of the trip. Marilyn was an exceptional host, staying responsive and helpful throughout our stay. This is a place we would definitely return to in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a serene mountain retreat!

Nice little cabin off the path, would recommend if you want to stay in the Ellijay, GA area. Roads leading to the cabin are unpaved gravel, they are no problem if you take your time and have 4x4.

A wonderful weekend away from it all

A lovely property, exactly as described, with every amenity you could desire. It has a beautiful view off the back porch and everything you need to cook is available for use. The hostess is a wonderful and thoughtful woman who answered all of my questions. The drive up is mountainous but manageable; since we don’t have 4WD, we just made sure to be back before dark and not try to make the drive in the rain. Definitely come stay and see the peace for yourself.

Perfect Getaway Spot

The property was just a described in the listing! My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much! The cabin was clean, the owner quickly responded to all emails, and we could not have asked for a better getaway spot to just enjoy the moutain air and nature! If you decide to stay here as well, Ellijay is a very pretty town with lots of cute shops, antique stores, and restaurants. Blue ridge is not to far and my husband and I really enjoyed our day trip on the Blue ridge Scenic Railway! There are lots of beautiful waterfalls and hiking trails nearby as well, we visited Amicalola Falls! There is lots to do nearby or you can stay and enjoy to Mountain View’s from the cabin and the hot tub!

Great mountain getaway

We had a great short, last minute stay here! It was fantastic. The location is remote and quiet, just perfect. The decks are perfect for gathering and enjoying the peaceful mountain setting. Unfortunately, we didn't see any bears...maybe next time. The cabin (house) was clean with everything we needed. The grill was great and clean. We loved sitting around the firepit and relaxing in the hot tub. Marilyns directions were spot on...the last few minutes of the drive up are definitely exciting! 5 stars, highly recommend! We're already talking about booking this winter with hopes of getting snowed in so we can't leave!

4x4/AWD Recommended!

It's buried in the fine print of the property details, but a 4x4/AWD is recommended for a reason. I didn't read that far into the listing before booking it. I wish they had put that at the beginning of the listing because I wouldn't have booked it if I had known what we were in for. I've done a fair amount of off-roading in 4x4s, 2x4s, motorcycles, etc. and this was a challenge in a 2x4. We were slipping and sliding up the hills. It rained one of the days we were there and we felt stuck in the cabin because, though we could have gotten down the mountain safely, we couldn't have gotten back up it in the mud. There are no guardrails on the roads either. They say it's part of the adventure, but I wanted a relaxing weekend, not an adventure.Once we eventually got to the cabin, it was nice enough. They have a covered hot-tub, which I really liked, but it was set to 80 degrees F. It took several hours to get up to 100, where we like it. We were unable to use it the first day, like I was looking forward to doing after that drive!Their internet service had a few hicups, but nothing major. Verizon reception was good. The power never went out, but I saw what I think was a generator for when it does. Very nice! The smart TVs were nice, but you have to log in with your own info. No services (Netflix, Paramount, etc.) were included. There were some free, Sling channels with ads available, but we grew tired of watching the Dog Whisperer after a few episodes.

Second Fantastic Visit

This was my husband and I’s second visit to the Rustic Hideout. We loved it so much last year for our anniversary that we decided to do a repeat for our anniversary this year. Our stay was fantastic yet again. The cabin is beautiful, private, and very clean! The kitchen is stocked with all the cookware and utensils that you could possibly need. The view of the mountains in the distance was a highlight of every morning and evening while we were relaxing on the porch in the rockers or in the hot tub. I can’t say enough about “A Rustic Hideout” or of the amazing job the host does to make sure your stay is a 5-star experience. We can’t wait to come back again!

Great stay!

The cabin was wonderful! The power was out when we got there but Marilyn communicated to us before we even go there and the generator provided power to enough of the house to be able to make it work until the power was back on the next morning. We really loved playing scrabble and scattergories (both at the cabin) on the swinging daybeds on the lower deck. We even saw a little armadillo trekking down the mountain one night. Highly recommend! Great host and amazing place to stay :)

Breathtaking Views

Seeing is believing! The pictures do not do this place justice. We needed a peaceful place to unwind and relax and that is exactly what we got. Amazing views, very roomy offering many different areas to relax outside and enjoy nature. Marylin provided helpful tips and turn by turn directions that made getting to the cabin a breeze. So glad I found this gem!

Always good to get away from it all.

The property is exactly as it looks in the pictures. Having two seperate king suites with their own bathroom was ideal. All 3 TV's have apps installed so all you need to do is log in with your own information. The Wi-Fi was strong and supported all use. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything needed. When we arrived there was already some ice made in the freezer. The fireplace is as simple as turn on and off with a remote. The temp was very easy to set with a Nest Thermostat. Having two seperate balcony's is a nice touch. The top balcony can only be reached from the interior of the cabin. On that balcony is the hot tub, chairs, and a gas grill. Tub was 100 degrees plus. Gas grill was clean and worked well. View is amazing. The only way to reach the balcony below is by walking on the side of the cabin down. On that balcony are two large swinging chairs/beds and a bar. There is a set of stairs down to the firepit from this balcony. The firepit can also be reached by walking around the other side of the cabin. When we arrived their was some wood already stacked on a wall. Our host Marilyn was very easy to deal and communicated with us often. We had read many comments saying you will need a 4x4 to get to the cabin. We went in April with a Chevy Traverse and had no issues. It was both dry and rainy during our visit. Stick to the directions given and go slow in low gear. As they say, getting there is part of the adventure. We will be back.

Quiet relaxing place to stay high in the mountains

There were 4 traveling for a few days of R&R. The trip up the mountain was a little rough but we managed with a 4 wheel drive. The kitchen had adequate table ware, and coffee pot. We cooked most days using the grill and stove.We had windy days, so we didn't get to use the firepit. If you are looking to have a peaceful relaxing week at a cabin, this is the place. We went several places to hike while we were there so we made trips up and down the mountain several times (20 minutes each way). We enjoyed the stay and Marilyn was very accommodating. Place was clean and plenty of room for 4 adults (separate bedrooms with ensuites was great). Very little traffic comes up as far as we were. Beautiful sunrise and sunsets. I am sure in the Fall it is beautiful with the changing of the leaves. We were there in mid-April.
