    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Cabin was very nice and a peaceful place. We had a great time.My only suggestion would be to install taller toilets. The toilets are very low to the ground and hard to get up for older people.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin was on a beautiful stretch of the Ellijay river. We loved just relaxing on the porch, listening to the sounds of the river and abundant wildlife. The cabin had very easy access to the river making it a breeze for our puppy to romp around in the water. The fenced in yard off the side porch was great for puppy playtime, too! The cabin was clean and comfortable for my family with a beautiful fire pit area. We got to see deer every single day during our stay as they visited the side yard for their breakfast and dinner. This is our second stay with Sliding Rock Cabins, and we loved it just as much as the first time!

Reviewer Comments: From booking our Cherokee Shoals Sliding Rock mountain vacation to check-out time, customer service and providing us with any necessary information was fantastic! We were given very specific driving directions which was extremely helpful due to arriving after dark. As we entered our cozy cabin, already lit up with welcoming Christmas lights, we immediately felt at home! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of paradise where we could relax with our family dog, too! Upon daylight the first morning, it was evident that we were truly in paradise... the gorgeous setting on a flowing stream, we caught our first glimpse of the many deer that visited us everyday! We will be back soon!!!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked a last-minute getaway at Cherokee Shoals Cabin for some trout fishing along the river, and it exceeded all our expectations. The reservation process was seamless, with clear, detailed directions provided promptly, making it easy to find the cabin.Upon arrival, we were thrilled with the location—right on the river’s edge. Sitting in the rockers on the porch, listening to the water rush by, was pure bliss. The steps leading directly into the river made fishing incredibly convenient. Though neighboring cabins are nearby, they’re spaced far enough to ensure privacy.The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped. Our group of four, plus two dogs, had plenty of space without feeling cramped. The owners thought of everything for our furry friends, providing sheets to cover furniture, bowls, towels, and even a dog bed. Cooking on the gas grill and dining on the screened-in porch was a highlight, as was relaxing in the hot tub after a day of fishing. We also loved gathering around the fire pit for s’mores and playing pool in the upstairs game room.Cherokee Shoals Cabin was the perfect retreat, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommend for a relaxing, riverfront getaway!

    We loved the view of the river, the cabin was clean and comfortable, and the extra attention to pets was awesome! Literally our ONLY complaint is the extremely rough gravel road leading to the cabin. We both had aching backs and necks from it, and that was with us driving very slowly. There’s a sign going onto the road that asks for donations to maintain the road…. All the owners really need to improve the drive. We understand that rain and snow will definitely cause ruts, we lived in the country on gravel roads for most of our marriage. But that can be repaired every year with proper maintenance. As much as we loved the cabin, we won’t be staying there again just because of the rough road and the way it gave me headaches and my husband a back ache.

The cabin was just as pictured-clean and well maintained.the property managers were friendly, responsive and a joy to work with. Sitting on the porch overlooking the river is the most relaxing experience. We basically stayed around the cabin enjoying the view and walks around the neighborhood. We saw deer next to our cabin everyday. I would highly recommend this cabin and company. Pet friendly-above and beyond!

    The house was perfect for a group of four. We also had our four small dogs (note the front porch railing slots were wide enough that a small dog could fit through.) Very comfortable beds, clean and well stocked. We had a few issues with the hot tub jets and temps but still a lovely place.
