Situated near the summit of Double Knob Mountain in Ellijay, Georgia, Mountain Ridge Retreat offers breathtaking views on all levels. Enjoy the adventure as you drive up the mountain.

Jump in the hot tub or lounge around on the swing on the lower deck. Or head back inside and gather around the pool table. The firepit is great for stories and smores. The Retreat is conveniently located 20 minutes from Ellijay and Blue Ridge for shopping and dining. We are also steps away from the Benton Mackeye Trail.

Clean, comfy and cozy cabin with amazing views!

We enjoyed a girl's getaway here and this cabin was perfect for us! It had everything we needed to cook all of our meals and to just relax. We especially enjoyed the amazing sunrises coming up over the mountains - absolutely stunning views!

Thanksgiving family vacation

The property was beautiful and cozy. The mountain view was incredible. Our family enjoyed the hot tub and pool table. The cabin was decorated for Christmas and that was a plus. It added to the atmosphere of our vacation. Beautiful place to spend time with our grown children and grandchild.

Great spot for a friend trip and the pups

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful location with friends. There was lots to do in the surrounding towns of Ellijay and Blue Ridge, but the cabin came with lots of games, entertainment and spots to just sit and enjoy the view. We particularly loved the screened porch to escape the summer bugs. It was also a great spot for our pups. The backyard was the right size for them to stretch their legs and it was fully fenced, which eased our minds with curious dogs.

Beautiful place… adventurous ride to/from cabin!

Beautiful mountain cabin with breathtaking Mountain View’s. Hot tub was a very nice touch. Kids enjoyed the trip back to 1980s to play Pac-Man. Very challenging access road from main road to cabin. Recommend making initial ascent in the daylight!

Best Christmas ever!

This cabin is absolutely amazing! Three stories all with amazing views. Being a foodie, I was really impressed with the very well stocked kitchen. It had everything. The bathrooms were very well stocked too with anything you would need. All the beds were so comfortable !! Being in between Ellijay and Blue Ridge was very convenient, but we spent much of our time enjoying the cabin. Wonderful and responsive hosts! We are booking again.

Nice stay

We loved our stay. Everything was clean and organized. The only thing we did not like was the drive up (20-30mins) gravel roads, but that can be common with a stay in the mountains. The property manager was great with communication. The cabin does have great views which we enjoyed.

Beautiful property

Absolutely breathtaking views!!! This house surpassed everything we could’ve ever imagined! There’s three levels of floors and each room had a king sized bed (comfy which is a super plus!), bathrooms and beautiful views. They decorated the house for Christmas and it felt like hime. The hot tub was great, we grilled and had a fantastic time. Everything looked and was SUPER clean. The only downfall is going up the mountain takes about 25 minutes and there’s a lot of dirt and gravel, but it definitely outweighs the beauty of this home. Thank you for an amazing stay!!! We can’t wait to be back :)

Perfect for a Group of Couples

This was the perfect spot for three couples to have lots of space, plenty of activities, great amenities, and a gorgeous view. The only detractor is the road to get to the cabin which is very rough and steep in certain spots.

Wonderful mountain getaway

I was very impressed with the cabin and that everything is provided for you that you might need. I always take extra basics like toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, body wash, etc. but everything was already there. The stairs are a little rough for us older people but everything was gorgeous. My only 2 complaints are the gravel roads are rough especially after it rained and my dog got out once because the yard and concrete from the driveway are so low in the 1 corner of the backyard. We really enjoyed the cable and views.

So beautiful I Popped the Question!

If you want a true mountain experience this is the cabin for you. The property is gorgeous with absolutely stunning views. All amenities were clean and in good working order. The surrounding hiking was magnificent and the town of Ellijay was picturesque. I proposed to my fiance with the sun rising in front of our private balcony. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect place. Make sure you drive a 4X4 or FWD drive vehicle though, it is on a mountain after all. We were able to make it up in a FWD Hyundai Sante Fe, but it was a bit harrowing at times. Thank you Mae for letting us stay at your amazing property!

The perfect spot!

This was the perfect cabin for our family of four! The house is stocked with everything you need for a vacation stay. The layout is perfect. The main level is the kitchen/ dining/ living area and also a bedroom and bath, with a screened in porch with outdoor living and dining space. Down one level is another bedroom and bath, and the entertainment area: pool table, tv, outdoor open air porch with hot tub, fire pit, and seating area. Upper level has a loft office area, and another bedroom and bath, with its own small screened in porch. House was stocked with great board games, as well as ring toss, darts, and cornhole. Great Weber grill on main level as well. Kitchen is stocked with lots of tools and gadgets, and we loved the gas stove. The decor is beautifully done, and all the beds were super comfy. The only negative I can come up with is the stairs, we didn't mind them, but if you have little kids or mobility issues, you might not enjoy your stay. We had a great time, and hope to return. PS We also loved the downtown Ellijay area, great shopping and dining there!

The views you're looking for!

Thank you for hosting us, it was an amazing stay and we can't say enough about the mountain views from both decks. Our stay was so comfortable and just what we needed. We loved hanging out on the decks, enjoying time with each other and our friends with us. You have a super clean place which also makes all the difference in the world. Internet was great too. Sitting in the hot tub with the clear sky at night was amazing, it's like you've thought of everything. Oh, and did I mention the views.... LOL I just can't stop thinking about them every time I looked out I saw something new. Can't wait to come back. We WILL be back! Your place rocks!
