Fox & the Fawn - Tranquil Treetop Cabin w/ HotTub
The Fox and Fawn Cabin was absolutely perfect for the peace and quiet that my wife and I needed. The cabin had everything we need upon arrival and it was spotless. The cabin had all of the comforts of home, but provided an opportunity to unplug and spend quality celebrating our anniversary. The location was close to about 8 local wineries and downtown Elijay. We highly recommend Elijay Wood Fire Pizza, Downtown Elijay The Door (and share that you are there to "see a man about a horse"), Ott Vineyard for casual atmosphere, Roo for a more upscale vineyard experience. Anne (host) was amazing! We have a bad thunderstorm come through with some power issues. Anne was really communicative on resetting house items (fans, clocks, etc.) and showed concern for us and our experience. 10/10 would book with Anne again.

Blue Ridge Mtn Views/Hot Tub/Deck Fireplace/2Kings
We had an outstanding stay at the cabin, which was exactly as described. It was extremely well organized and clean. The hosts were excellent, responsive, pleasant and accommodating. The view was awesome and the cabin had everything you could possibly need for a relaxing weekend getaway. We will definitely look to stay here first, the next time we are in the area.

Rainbow Lodge-Riverfront, Fiber, HotTub, Dog, Fish
My wife and I took a short, last-minute trip to the Rainbow Lodge and couldn't have been happier with our accommodations. The river views from most rooms in the house (and from the hot tub) were spectacular, the bed and bedding were comfortable, and the property was peaceful and lush. The host, Brad, was quick to respond and was very detailed and thoughtful in providing information and ample supplies to make our stay convenient, comfortable, and relaxing. For a small fee, we were able to arrange a late checkout. There are a lot of stairs inside and outside the house, so it's probably not suitable for very small children or those with mobility issues. For us, this was a 10/10.

The Lens Lodge
The Lens Lodge is very relaxing and well appointed. We had a storm one night and we lost power but the generator kicked on right away so we did not feel the loss. We had a great stay.

Our family had a great time in Charles’ house. It’s a beautiful, clean house with amazing view. The basement bedroom is unique. Our grandchildren really enjoy sleeping there.

Calming Creekside Cabin
Absolutely beautiful place and oh so peaceful. While there is a road right by the house, it doesnt really distract from the beautiful scenery and noise of the creek nearby. We took advantage of basically all the ammenities. We went in the canoe, relaxed in the hot tub, enjoyed the convenient fire place and grill, caught a fish or two in the lake and had a great time being so close to some beautiful trails! And oh so many naps on the comfortable porch bed swing. The stairs to the loft were not an issue for us or our dog either, but note that they are steep, so they could be an issue for smaller dogs or people with mobility issues. We would absolutely love to be back again in the future!

Hilltop Haus | Stunning Views | sauna,gym,hot tub
I’d advise against driving a sedan or a small vehicle, but the drive up to the home isn’t bad at all. It’s just a little bit of a clincher. Best views I’ve ever had at a mountain cabin. Late cotober here would be a religious experience. The sun sets directly over the mountain in full view of the back porch. Incredible sight.

Big Creek Falls-2 bed/2 bath-sleeps 6-hot tub-WiFi
We had an amazing stay! We booked this place for our honeymoon and I couldn’t have been more pleased! The creek was so beautiful and we spent most of our time in it! The hot tub was warm and relaxing for our rainy stay and we finished the twilight series while cuddling on the couch. We plan to book another stay here soon! Thank you Jamison for opening your home to us!

Absolutely incredible property! My family and I had a fantastic time. The property was immaculate and there was everything we needed and more! The photographs do not do it justice, breath-taking views and added bonus of games in the garage were perfect. We didn’t want to leave! Thank you to Ashley and Brad for a memorable holiday, one we will cherish forever!

A wonderful place to get away for peace and tranquility. Very close to the best winery in the area as well as best orchard. Short drive to downtown Blue Ridge where all the action is but off the beaten path from the chaotic tourisim. Highly recommended!

Brandon and Kaitlyn were wonderful hosts! They were kind and very helpful. Their cabin is cozy and perfect for a couple’s getaway. My husband, family dog and I had the best weekend staying at this Airbnb. It was clean, close to downtown Elijah and downtown Blue Ridge, and we were able to go into both! Would 10/10 recommend for a couples getaway or a relaxing weekend away!

Modern Luxury A-Frame with Hot Tub
My wife and I selected the area of Ellijay for our honeymoon specifically because of Ted’s AirBnB! We were amazed by the style, decor, and feel of it! Every morning felt fun, light, and spacious and every evening felt private and intimate. What a perfect balance that was everything we could have asked for! On top of that, Ted was such an incredible host. Very kind and generous! We cannot wait to return to this spot time and time again!

Killer View | Hot tub | Cozy Charm | Easy Drive Up

Jennifer was such a responsive and kind host too! 10/10 recommend!

Your guide to Ellijay
All About Ellijay
Located at the junction of the Ellijay and Cartecay rivers around 1.5 hours north of Atlanta, the small town of Ellijay is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Although considered a quiet mountain spot, Ellijay has a lively downtown area, with antique stores and outfitters where visitors come to gear up for adventures on the Appalachian Trail. It’s not uncommon to hear live music drifting out of one of the restaurants or bars.
While Ellijay’s historic downtown has much to offer, the town’s surroundings make it a popular place to visit. Georgia may be known for its juicy peaches, but Ellijay is celebrated for delicious apples, earning it the nickname Apple Capital of Georgia. In spring, the orchards are covered in apple blossoms, while fall offers many U-Pick opportunities, where you can wander through the rows of trees to choose the sweetest fruit. The calm flowing waters of the Ellijay and Cartecay rivers are popular for tubing and relaxing dips, while the Blue Ridge Mountains are a renowned hiking and biking destination, with miles of trails leading through the mature wooded areas up steep inclines to spectacular viewpoints.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Ellijay
Due to its slight elevation, the climate in Ellijay is generally mild compared to the weather in other Southern cities. Summers are warm without getting extremely hot, and winters tend to be cool rather than freezing. Although the weather tends to be fairly comfortable year-round, late spring and early fall are excellent times to stay at cabins in Ellijay, Georgia. Not only is the climate pleasant enough to explore the miles of hiking and biking trails, it is also a popular time for events and festivals in the area — like the Georgia Apple Festival, which is Ellijay’s largest annual event. During this popular October celebration of the fall season and the apple harvest, you’ll find live entertainment; apple pies, dumplings, and doughnuts; handmade crafts and gifts; and a parade.

Amicalola Falls State Park
Just 25 minutes southeast of town lies Amicalola Falls State Park, best known for its 729-foot waterfall, the largest in Georgia. Hiking trails of varying difficulty lead to the top of the cascading falls and fan out across the 829-acre park, where you may spot white-tailed deer among dusky-pink mountain laurel.
Gilmer Arts Center
