East Ellijay private home

We had an excellent stay! The home was lovely, well maintained, and clean. Very private area. Area roads are narrow, winding, dark, and filled with deer. We did not use hot tub, but did enjoy fire pit and porch seating. Highly recommend

Fantastic place to stay!

The house was perfectly decorated, super clean, and very comfortable to stay in. We were surrounded by a gorgeous view of trees, with food and grocery stores in close driving distance. The kitchen has a decent supply of cooking items and the bathrooms were stocked with towels, shampoo, conditioner, etc. We were charmed from the moment we walked in the door and will definitely come back again.

Wonderful 1st Visit to Ellijay

Such a nice place to enjoy a long weekend in Ellijay! I’m a self-professed “decor snob,” so I tend to book places that are aesthetically pleasing. This house did not disappoint! It’s exactly as pictured. It’s also a great location for exploring Ellijay and the surrounding areas. We’d definitely stay again!

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this beautifully decorated and comfortable home. We cooked meals in the beautiful kitchen, the kids played hours of air hockey and we enjoyed all that Ellijay offers. The notebook left by the host helped us decide on which hikes to take and which restaurants to dine at. If you like wine, visit Roo. Stunning view!

Bachelorette party

We stayed for a bachlorette party for my daughter and could not have found a better place to stay! It has everything you need to stay in and cook or close enough to all the restaurants if you want to go out. The pictures are exactly what you find when you walk in the door. Perfect, quiet and can’t wait to stay again! And to top it off Jenny was so nice checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed.
