The Perfect Mountain Retreat

This two-story cabin has everything you need for a cozy stay. The ground level has a lounge area complete with a ping pong table, two additional bedrooms for extra guests, and best of all, an indoor pool! The kids loved spending time at the pool. We had multiple ping pong tournaments. We spent hours swimming and relaxing, which made the stay even more special.

Cooking and Relaxing

The kitchen was  spacious and fully stocked with every appliance and piece of cookware we needed. It made cooking as a group so easy and enjoyable to cook as a group.
Just steps away, the cozy living room was the perfect spot to gather around the fireplace and relax together.

I loved the mix of wood tones and modern touches throughout the cabin, so much inspiration for future DIY projects! The huge dining table had plenty of space for all of us, making meal times feel extra special.

The Master Bedroom

This master bathroom had a spa-like feel, complete with a large soaking tub, and spacious shower. It offered the perfect touch of luxury, making it easy to unwind after a day of adventure.

Outdoor Spaces and Cozy Nights by the Fire

One of my favorite parts of this cabin was the beautiful outdoor space. There’s a deck with an outdoor fireplace, making it the perfect spot to take in the peaceful views of the surrounding forest. The view was stunning, especially in the evenings when everything felt so serene. We even spent time around the fire pit, which made for the perfect way to end each day.

One of the most unique features of this cabin was the indoor pool and lounge area located on the ground level. This space was a huge hit with everyone in our group. The kids loved it, and we spent hours splashing around and enjoying the luxury of having a private pool right in the cabin.
The lounge area, complete with a ping pong table, quickly became a favorite hangout spot. With plenty of space to spread out, it was ideal for friendly competition and endless fun.

A Day of Apple Picking

We couldn’t visit Ellijay without stopping by a nearby apple orchard. This town is known for its beautiful orchards, so we spent an afternoon picking apples, enjoying the fresh fall air, and just taking in the scenery. It was the perfect fall activity and the kids loved it!
