    The cabin was cozy and the listing should really be updated to state 2 master suites because both bedrooms were really master bedrooms. The automatic fireplace was great and the two decks couldn't be beat!

    The house was just as advertised! We were 2 couples so having 2 king suites was nice. The house was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, playing pool, and watching all the deer in the neighborhood. Dog friendly with gates you can use at porch entrance. House was close to lots of fun things to do.

    We loved this property. The inside was spacious and had a pool table. Outside, we enjoyed the hot tub, river, and fire pit. We will definitely be back!

    This place was a beautiful getaway for my wife and myself. Great views of the river out the back windows and off the back deck. The fire pit was great for sitting around at night and just enjoying the outdoors. We had deer visit daily, and even had them come within about 10-15 feet while we were sitting outside. We would 100% stay here again.

    A few issues with the blinds of the home not working. Otherwise the property was exactly as advertised. Great location on the river with all the comforts of home.

    Directions to the property were precise and very necessary! The gate attendant asked for a reservation number which we did not have, but figured it out based on our name and property number, which had been supplies. The cabin was an older home but well-maintained and the layout of bedrooms and kitchen were perfect. Neighboring homes were quite close but still enjoyed being right on the river.Kitchen pots and pans were very worn and knives were really dull. Since we stayed in and cooked a lot, that was annoying. I should have remembered my knife sharpener! Otherwise a very pleasant stay! Loved the outdoor decks and porches!

    The stay was very good. However , we received one small bar of soap for two people for 5 days. The soap was gone on day three. It would have been nice to have a chair or luggage rack in the bedrooms. One bedroom had several roaches. Overall , We enjoyed our stay and the property. It was close to Ellijay and other attractions..

    We weren't able to enjoy the property/river like we had hoped due to hurricane Helene coming through. It was nice having a pool table and dart board so we had something to do while it rained. And we were still able to visit a few wineries. I would like to stay here again and hopefully have better weather.
