Private - Creekside - Cabin + Hot Tub/Pool Table & Pet Friendly

This 3,015-square-foot Veteran-owned pet friendly home offers friends and family a beautifully appointed interior, featuring a terrace-level game room with arcade games and pool table, 3 furnished decks with creekside views, a private hot tub, and a fire pit!

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Loft: Twin/Full bunk Bed w/Full trundle & Separate Twin, & pullout sofa in game room.

‘Big Creek Retreat’ will be your home-to get-away-from-home. Spend your days relaxing on the banks of Big Creek and your evenings lounging on one of 3 furnished decks. Together with your family, listen to the sounds of the creek and take in the serenity of the surrounding forest.

Begin each day sipping your morning coffee or tea on one of the private decks or in the living room as the space slowly fills with the morning sunlight. The inviting living room boasts vaulted ceilings, a flat-screen cable TV, and a stone electric fireplace that’s perfect for those chilly mountain evenings!

After exploring the hiking trail or wading in the creek, prepare lunch for the group in the fully equipped kitchen, fitted with a 4-burner gas stove, spacious countertops, cooking utensils, an island with seating for 4, and a dining table with seating for 6. Following lunch, you can visit a local vineyard or apple orchard or stay in for a game of pool or arcade games in the game room.

Prepare your favorite dinner on the gas grill while sipping on your favorite cocktail. There is plenty of seating to accommodate your entire group. There is no better way to finish off a peaceful day than roasting s’mores around the fire pit or soaking in the private hot tub. Be sure to gaze up at the star-filled sky!

When those eyes get heavy, sleep well in one of the 3 comfortably furnished bedrooms and loft.

Quiet Retreat

We enjoyed the property and all of the amenities. The sound of the creek was very relaxing and our kids enjoyed the pool table, arcade games, and movie area. We enjoyed the short drive to downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Lots of wildlife in the area, which was fun to see.

Great family getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The cabin was beautiful and very family friendly. We had a mix of adults, kids of various ages, and dogs, and everyone had a great time. The dogs loved splashing in the creek and the kids spent the much of their time outside exploring. Great location too -- nice and close to Ellijay, Blue Ridge, and hiking spots.

Weekend retreat

This property is beautiful. Great spaces for a group to gather with a large kitchen and living room as well as the game and movie room downstairs. Plenty of beds with clean sheets. Two queen beds, a king, in addition to the bunk beds, trundle, and full bed in the loft. There was everything we ne needed to cook, plenty of pots and utensils, a gas grill and extra propane, and small appliances like a blender and hand mixer. The driveway was very steep but not unsafe. We didn't have any trouble getting to the parking area or back out. Everything was very clean, no dust or cobwebs, just a dirty pot a previous guest hid in the back of a cabinet. Totally a guest issue, not host neglect. There were some nice touches from the host like chocolates and coffee when we checked in. ked in.

A true cabin retreat

The whole family loved all the aspects of this creek side cabjn retreat. So much space for all the family and room to spare. Loved all the fun activities offered such as the pool table, games, fire pit and hot tub. The paved driveway was a plus. Distanced so you feel remote but still close to Ellijay with great restaurants, shopping, hiking and entertainment. Very helpful and communicative owner.

A peaceful oasis

We had an incredible stay at this gorgeous cabin! It was comfortable, very clean, and well equipped. The creek and hot tub were big hits with our kids. Steven was very easy to communicate with and a five star host. This is the best cabin we have stayed at in the blue ridge area and we absolutely hope to stay here again!

Just returned from a week's stay

My wife and I (and the pup) just returned from a week's stay at the cabin. The owner was very responsive during the entire booking process and stay. The house is clean and very quiet. We loved the game room. The town of Ellijay is only a 20 minute drive away. And there are many hiking trails if you're willing to drive a little further. Oh, we visited all of the local wineries as well. I'd highly recommend this property for a getaway.

Although it rained for much of our 4-day trip, we enjoyed the cabin and kids especially enjoyed the arcade games in the basement. Steve was very responsive and that’s always comforting to a renter.

This property is better than advertised!! So many things to do, while being tucked away among the trees with a beautiful creek in the back yard. A great place to escape the rat race yet close enough to great shopping and restaurants!!

Weekend Birthday Getaway

I don’t think I have ever rented property that the host was more attentive. The cabin was clean, fully stocked, and the basement game room was amazing. This place is very kid friendly as well. My grandkids loved the loft area and the popcorn machine in the basement. Beautiful setting as well. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Great place to reconnect and recharge

The cabin was everything we hoped for. Each day was started with the sound of the rushing creek before we took our dog walking along the trails nearby. We loved the pool table and likely spent more time there than anywhere else in the house. The fire pit and hot tub were also a huge draw for us in the evenings. The cabin is perfectly located between downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge which both have great dining and shopping.

Much needed getaway!

If you're looking for rest and relaxing Steve's cabin is the place to go in the North Georgia mountains! The sound from the creek in the backyard is truly amazing! We stayed for 5 days and only left for groceries and a quick sightseeing adventure in Blue Ridge, otherwise we never really wanted to leave the cabin because it has it all!

Weve stayed in a lot of vacation home and this one checks all the boxes and then some. Clean, comfortable beds, all the kitchen basics, and in a beautiful, private setting. Room for a large family, great game room, hot tub and hiking paths on site. Last but not least, an extremely nice and accommodating host. Everyone in our party loved this house.

Great place!

We enjoyed our stay here. The cabin is spacious and very clean. Steve was a very responsive host. We walked along the creek daily on a trail that was perfect for the children. The cabin is close to hiking, apple picking, a run to Ellijay for lunch or coffee, trip to Blue Ridge for shopping. The basement is very spacious and the games were a hit with all ages. We plan to return again soon!
