Mountain Top Lodge | Ellijay, GA

Bring the whole family and escape to the mountains at Mountain Top Lodge, a spacious 7-bedroom retreat designed for groups who want room to spread out, incredible North Georgia mountain views, and plenty to do without ever leaving the cabin.
Tucked away on 21 secluded acres, this impressive 5,000+ square-foot lodge sleeps up to 14 guests and combines the privacy of a true mountain getaway with a location convenient to some of Ellijay's favorite attractions. Chateau Meichtry Family Vineyard is less than a mile away, and downtown Ellijay is approximately 15 minutes from the cabin.
The moment you arrive, the mountain setting takes center stage. Step onto the large covered wraparound porch and take in beautiful layered views stretching across the North Georgia Mountains. With plenty of covered outdoor space, you can enjoy the scenery in almost any weather, whether you're starting the morning with coffee or winding down after a day of exploring.
Inside, Mountain Top Lodge offers plenty of space for everyone to gather without feeling crowded. The main level features a comfortable great room with a gas fireplace and Smart TV, along with a large gourmet kitchen equipped for everything from a quick breakfast to a full family dinner.
And when it comes to entertainment, this cabin delivers.
Challenge the family to air hockey or foosball, head upstairs for ping pong and basketball, or make your way to the terrace level for another spacious gathering area complete with a Smart TV and wet bar. With multiple entertainment spaces throughout the home, kids and adults can each find their own place to relax and have fun.
When you're ready to slow things down, step outside and soak in the covered hot tub while enjoying the peaceful mountain setting. End the evening around the outdoor fire pit, then retreat to one of seven private bedrooms for a comfortable night's sleep.
The sleeping arrangements are especially well suited for large families and groups, with three king bedrooms, three queen bedrooms, and a twin bedroom with two twin beds. With accommodations for 14 guests in actual bedrooms, no one has to spend their mountain vacation sleeping on a pull-out sofa.
Whether you're planning a family reunion, multi-family vacation, friends' getaway, or a North Georgia wine-country weekend, Mountain Top Lodge gives your group the space, privacy, views, and entertainment to make the trip memorable.

The cabin was beautiful. Our family had a wonderful time. The driveway was very steep with loose gravel. 4wd recommended,but we made it up without.

Beautiful mountain retreat!

We had a great time with our family this weekend in Talking Rock! There were 14 of us (full house) and we used almost every amenity - hot tub, grill, air hockey, basketball hoop, yard games, every kitchen appliance - and everything worked great. The views are breathtakingly gorgeous and the property very private and quiet. Bat watching off the deck at night was really cool and there are a ton of beautiful moths. The property was exactly as advertised. We did pick up some things at Walmart that made the weekend much easier (hope this is helpful for future guests): toilet paper (only 1 roll per bathroom provided), paper towels (only 1 roll provided), dish soap (a couple little bottles provided), hand soap (none in bathrooms), olive oil/spices/seasonings, trash bags (3 provided), blankets (it gets chilly at night), foil/Saran wrap, towels for the hot tub.

Perfect setting in the Georga Mountains.

This was our first time to travel to the Georgia mountains and we were most impressed! We absolutly loved the house and the setting on top of the mountain. The home is beautiful and well maintained and in an ideal location. The home allows for gatherings on multiple levels and has great games for entertainment (ping pong, basketball, air hockey). We loved Ellijay and the restaurants as well as the shopping; however, we made the decision that the house was even more fun so we used the firepit, played games and cooked in the fantastic kitchen. We will return to Ellijay and we will stay in this home again!
