Mountaintown Creekside Cabin Getaway

Cabin was as advertised. View was better than expected. Location was convenient and quiet. We visit Ellijay every year with family and this was one of the nicer places we've stayed.

The barbecue grill needs to be changed

Our experience was stellar. Beautiful furniture including log beds! Loved the rocking chairs on the porch where it felt like we were in a tree house. Beautiful double fireplace and fire pit below. The creek (which was more like a river) was refreshing and the kids enjoyed playing on the tubes. Loved seeing the deer at the entrance a few times. No clutter. We will definitely be back!

There’s no way this cabin is not a 5 stars! As you walk in the cabin you feel peaceful, beautiful true wood cabin with high ceilings. As you walk out on to the huge back deck, you can hear the sound of the roaring creek. There’s a huge out door fireplace and new rocking chairs and dinning tables and chair to sit and enjoy the beauty of the back yard and creek. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and fit the cabin theme perfectly. The kitchen is large and stocked with every thing you will need to cook a great meal. We have already booked our next vacation at this beautiful cabin.

The location was a 10 for what we. wanted - the river in the backyard was amazing and we all enjoyed it! The cabin itself has the potential to be a 10 as well however, it needs some attention - it was surface clean which is what we expect with a rental home but, this one needs a deep cleaning soon or I'm afraid it's rating might go down drastically - the baseboards, window sills and painted walls all need attention. The covered back porch is one of the best features of the home but the cushions are worn and stained and in need of replacing. A deep clean and fresh coat of paint would greatly benefit this property. We would love to book this location in the future but would want to know that it had given some serious TLC before we did.

No way this place gets less than 5 stars.

Location was amazing - river in the backyard was perfect! We spent most of our time enjoying the river - some just sat chairs in the water and others spent the day tubing. House has the potential to be just as great however, it needs some attention. Window sills and baseboards had dust and cobwebs and any wall that was painted had marks or stains. A deep clean and fresh coat of paint would do wonders. Covered back porch was so nice but furniture cushions were old, stained and in need of replacement. We would love to book this location again but I would want to know that a deep cleaning had been done!

The home was spacious and had all the things we needed to prepare our meals. The deck was amazing overlooking the creek where we floated on tubs. The air was out our entire stay so we were uncomfortable our entire stay.

This cabin is in a fantastic location and is super relaxing by the creek. However, this house is not being managed and maintained well. The furniture on the porch is in very poor shape and makes the porch basically unusable. The cleanliness of the cabin is an issue as well. Cobwebs, rat dropping and roaches were all witnessed in varying quantities. Lastly, during our stay both the upstairs and downstairs air conditioning units stopped working. Vacasa was responsive in fixing the first, but completely ignored our requests for service on the other unit.

We came in on Saturday and we left on Tuesday. The property is just as it is listed; it is spacious and beautiful.

Our group definitely had mixed feelings staying at this property.The good: the price was good, the location was great, the actual size of the property was great for our group, and the river in the backyard was very scenic. The bad: This property was not clean and lacked basic necessities. I cleaned something up off the floor and removed a whole layer of just grime/dirt off the floor. We had to buy extra trash bags, sponges, and dish soap. There was half a roll of toilet paper for our group of 10 which was problematic for a multi-night stay. The owners left a note saying to use a specific type of toilet paper due to the septic system. I called VRBO to see what type of toilet paper the owners would prefer but VRBO was not able to tell me. The other frustrating thing was that VRBO said they would bring our group toilet paper for our stay which of course was never delivered.

We enjoyed our stay very much and the property was beautiful and the view and weather were wonderful.
