Sep 28, 2023 #### Emerald Forest Sept. 2023 The house is beautiful and very private. The porch was wonderful. The kitchen was well set up. The bedrooms were comfortable and both downstairs bedrooms had their own bathrooms. It is about 15 minutes to Ellijay and 35 minutes to Almicola Falls State Park. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Was disappointed that we were informed only after booking that there is a one mile gravel road to the house and that 4wd/awd vehicles are recommended. We had front wheel drive vehicles, and while we were able to make it, one of the vehicles scraped a couple of times on the way up. Also, if it had rained, the drive would have been extremely difficult for us. Also, the fire pit was nice, but the area was much smaller than it appears in the photos. ##### Jay E. Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Allyson W. Feb 19, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Extremely frustrated 0/5 stars - My sister and I were to arrive Friday night at the cabin and were unable to reach the property. The description does not state that in order to reach the property you must drive down a Very Rough gravel road. It has been raining in the area for several days which left the property inaccessible for anything other than a 4wd/SUV. My sister were stuck in the mud in our camry at 11pm and after nearly an hour were finally able to reverse and go back down the hill. We were stuck trying to find a hotel at near midnight in Ellijay. I informed the property owners on Sat morning and was informed the "local property team" would be calling me. I never heard from them and ended up having to stay in the hotel for the weekend. Extremely dissatisfied that it was never made known that 4wd was needed to reach property & more disappointed that no member of property ever reached out. ##### Allyson W.
