We had a family reunion and could not have asked for a more perfect home. It was in a beautiful location, although the road is gravel and can be a little tricky as it is very curvy, but that’s to be expected with a house in the mountains. The view was unmatched by anything I have ever seen. The host was extremely communicative within minutes of my emails. The beds were extremely comfortable, as was the other furniture in the house. The kitchen is immaculate and well stocked. The house is pet friendly and my dog loved hanging out on the back deck. Our family enjoyed making s’mores at the fire pit. There were numerous games available, including a Pac-Man arcade game. There are a plethora of toys for young children. It just was extremely relaxing being there and spending time with family. There are so many things to do in the immediate area. Several relatives took advantage of the pool and the mini golf at the rec center. My son-in-law enjoyed fishing. Very close to downtown Ellijay, where we enjoyed meals and shopping.
