We were very pleased with our stay. The cabin was very clean and our communication with the host prior to the stay was excellent, as he responded very quickly to any questions we had. He also allowed us to check in early on the day we were traveling to the cabin, but our schedule did not allow for that. We very much recommend these accommodations.

The cabin was just as it was depicted in the photos and the host. Damon provided all the information that we need to get into the cabin smoothly and quickly. We had a great time at the cabin. I would highly recommend this cabin. It was only two of us and it was plenty of room. Another advantage is the gated communityit was a smooth drive up to the cabin and just moments away from Ellijay. thank you again, Damon for allowing us the pleasure of staying in your cabin.

I can't comment on the cabin itself but the owner was very responsive. A few days before the visit the heat broke. Fortunate for us he was able to move us next door. He was very communicative multiple times throughout the few days. I would select this property again.

It was a cold weekend and we were asked not to touch thermostat just use space heaters. Just did not do the job. Fireplace didn’t seem to put out any heat. The cabin was mostly clean. We cooked in and had most what we needed. I’ve machine in the refrigerator didn’t work. But at least there was a bag of ice in the freezer. Overall it was a nice cabin even if we had to wear our jackets inside.

The cabin itself if beautiful. Just a few things that would have made our stay 5 stars; the wifi was extremely slow, such that you could only watch one tv at a time. If someone was watching tv, you could not use your phone on wifi. It would be helpful to let people know that they will need to enable wifi-calling as there was no cell service. With slow wifi, this made working from the cabin almost impossible.Also, please take pictures of the stairs that lead down to the cabin. As someone with a disability, this was difficult to navigate upon arrival.Outside of technology issues, we had an amazing stay. The cabin was very clean and comfortable.

My husband and I arrived at 3:45pm hoping to get in before 4:00 or at least on time. We were held up 20 minutes by the cleaning lady, which made us late for our dinner reservation. The host acted like it was no big deal. No apologies. That same night someone started banging on our door. This person was rude, demanding how we reserved the cabin because she had rented it too. From Brandon. On VRBO. Again, we contacted him and he acted like it was no big deal. Negatives: the host, little water pressure in the kitchen, no throw blankets, acorns hit the roof so bring a sound machine. Positives: the cabin is cute and clean with plenty of space, bed was comfortable, back porch is amazing, hot tub is clean but takes 2-3 hours to heat. Overall, we’d probably stay again with no expectation of getting in the cabin on time.
