"This is a very nice cabin and very equipped. It was very clean on the inside and had all sort of items one might forget e.g phone chargers. The exterior was a little dirty with spider webs and you need an SUV 4x4 to be able to drive the road to the cabin. It is a little bit of a hassle but all in all, I would definitely recommend it. We enjoyed our stay very much and the fire pit next to the river was very relaxing. "

Private Modern Creekside Cottage Offering A Peaceful & Relaxing Getaway

10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful property and perfect for a couple. The cabin was clean, orderly and cozy. The creek winds along two sides of the property, close enough to see from the deck and hear the calming sounds of the water making its way down. The swing on the bank of the creek was my morning meditation spot. The back deck and hot tub was our happy place in the evening, watching deer make their way across the yard late afternoon. The host provided clear check in and out instructions and was communicative throughout our stay. There was also a notebook with great suggestions for enjoying the area. We will definitely be staying here again "

Budget Inn Ellijay

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was clean, comfortable and quiet. Coffee in the room was a plus. Check-in was a minus. They wouldn't let us in the office; we had to stay outside in the 90-degree heat WITH their office AC pumping MORE hot, humid air onto us. The office window is plastered with rules (I'm a man of rules, I didn't mind it too much, but, it was a little off-putting) about all of the things you must and must not do in order to not lose your deposit. I was warned that if I slept in both of the Queen beds I would be charged more. That was unnecessary. I would stay here again. OH! The 3% CREDIT CARD PENALTY was off-putting. That might keep me from staying again. As a businessman myself, I KNOW they're making money on that 3% charge."
