The cabin was easy to find with gps and easy to get up to in our Corolla. We both loved the view of the beautiful starry sky while relaxing in the hot tub. We had all the amenities we needed and no issues. Activities we did during our stay were chess, cards, horseshoes, hiking, horseback riding, and zip lining. There is a Dollar General less than a mile away, which was really convenient for snacks and drinks. It's pretty secluded, and we loved the privacy. We brought our dog and she enjoyed it, too. The fenced in backyard was great and they even had dog treats which I completely forgot to bring! We grilled steaks on our last night and enjoyed the fire pit. All in all, it was a great trip and we look forward to going again.

Quaint retreat

My wife and I, and our little puppy stayed here to celebrate my 47th birthday. Loved, loved, loved it. Close enough to town, but far enough away for peace and quiet. Everything was excellent.

Quiet and cozy

It was the perfect cabin for our return to Ellijay. Cabin is secluded so you won’t see neighbors, giant bed is cozy and perfect for after a long day of hiking up mountains. Was also perfect for our dogs.

Cozy little getaway

Our stay at Gunsmoke was terrific: Clean, cozy, well-appointed. really comfy King-sized bed! Great location: not far from town, but well-away from the hustle-bustle. Smart TVs are a plus: watched plenty of football. Had a clear evening when we enjoyed some star-gazing. Looking forward to a return trip - highly recommend!

Nice cabin getaway

The cabin was nice the hot tub was a good addition. Communication with the owners was good. There was a storm just before we came that knocked out the power and she kept in touch with us to let us know what was going on with it. The town is nice. It was a lovely stay.

I was coming to Georgia for a family wedding and decided I wanted to stay in a cabin in the woods and the Gunsmoke Cabin was exactly what I was looking for. It is exactly as pictured and was a wonderful retreat. It was peaceful and calming, and so very cozy. Thank you again Jill.

Great little cabin!

This is the cutest house! They have decorated the inside and the outside, and it looks amazing! It is so peaceful and quiet there. We had a very relaxing time. The only negative I could say,which the owners don’t really have any control over, is the drive up to the house is really rough. We would definitely stay there again.

Relaxing cabin in the woods

The cabin was really cute and clean and the listing was accurate. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas of Ellijay and Blue Ridge. The directions from the host were accurate and we had no problem finding it and they gave some good recommendations for restaurants and hiking in the area. We were glad to have 4 wheel drive as the gravel roads are pretty steep but we didn’t have any trouble accessing it. The property was very private and mostly quiet except for some traffic and occasional kids on 4 wheelers outside the property but nothing out of the ordinary. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return again.

Beautiful cabin

We’ve vacationed in dozens of cabins, but this one is our favorite! Everything was very clean, the floor plan is very spacious, yet cozy, and stocked with all the supplies needed to feel at home. After hiking all day, we were pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the bed was, and now buying the same mattress for our own home! This adorable cabin is located perfectly in a private area and easy to find. If you’re looking for a comfortable getaway and a cozy cabin, Gunsmoke is the cabin for you.

Good quiet place

Nice clean smallish cabin. Not too small though.Everything was well thought out and nice and clean. The only problem I ran into was not one that could be fixed. In the winter this particular hot tub drops in temp quickly after the cover is removed. Not a problem if you spend short times in it.
