Great spot

This cabin fit our group perfectly. The cabin is on Mountain Town creek, a great spot and very pretty inside. There were a few items that needed addressing like most rentals, but overall our group liked the property and would rent again.

A Very Merry Family Christmas

We stayed here over Christmas with our grown children and families. We had a wonderful visit and had everything we needed. Plenty of room for 8 adults and three small children. The back deck is amazing; we had a fire in the fireplace and listened to the babbling brook! We’ll definitely be back!!!

Perfect Cabin!

What a lovely home! The creek in the back is perfect for kids floating and skipping rocks. The house was immaculate and well laid out. The porch was the place to be! And the master closet is big enough for a pack n play! The house was more than big enough for our family trip of 9!

A place to be renewed

Perfect for a retreat. It's isolated but not too far from other cabins that can be barely seen. The ambience was ideal. It overlooks the running water that provided the most soothing sound. It provided the space for all 11 to gather for discussion and group activities. We are blessed to have been there.

A great home on the river

This was our 2nd time staying at Mountaintown Creekside, and we loved it! The home fit our families well and has a great layout. We enjoyed the porch, the fire pit, and the comfy living room! The easy access to the river is great for tubing, relaxing, or playing in the creek. The hot tub was also a big hit! The kids also enjoyed the flat yard spaces for running around and playing games. Ellijay is a great town and we always love coming to visit.

A tucked away gem!

Awesome location, close to everything in Ellijay. Home was fantastic, great beds, plenty of space for everyone. It was rainy and cold so we didnt utilize the outside fireplace or firepit by the river. Cool to watch the creek/river change color and rise with all the rain. Kitchen was well sto ked with everyrhing you need for cooking and gas grill worked great. Would definitely recommend this house!! We had 6 people with us and could have fit more comfortably.

Mountain Cabin getaway

What a beautiful, peaceful place! We were close to activity’s we enjoy ( boating, shopping, brew pubs, wineries, farm stores, the train). We spent one very hot afternoon just sitting in the creek and it was lovely. The only downside was an ant colony in the downstairs bedroom and bath. Called the property manager who apologized that there was no pest control available on the weekends. But, she had maintenance bring us some spray which took care of it.

Girls trip- Birthday weekend

The home was safe behind a locked neighborhood. We had 6 women so the house fit us well. I love to cook so I was surprised at how well the cooking supplies were well stocked. We really enjoyed the river having tubing races (not pretty but fun) and putting the chairs in the river to just relax and talk. The only downside is upstairs, there is a bathroom and bedroom but the others in the shared bedroom have to come in for middle of the night bathroom activities. We are trying to talk our husbands into coming back next year though :) The host and the representatives are very responsive so if there is an issue, they come with solutions. Good job!!

40th Birthday Getaway

We had a great time at the cabin. Checkin was really easy when we arrived. The only issue we had is that inside the house there was a buch of spider/spiderwebs. I know that we should expect that out doors but even in the bathrooms you could see the webs. Before we could use the patio furniture we had to wipe down all the table and chairs. Some of the cushions had mold on them which I understood since they stay outdoors. This was a family getaway to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday. Overall our trip was amazing. We loved the water in the backyard! We would definitely stay again. Just a heads up the driveway is pretty steep going down. Walmart and ingles are really close by. Cant wait to vacation here again.

Bats in bedroom!

Upon arrival we smelled a horrible odor and heard odd noises in the front guest bedroom, after closer inspection we discovered a bat nested behind the window frame. Maintenance came out and discovered a gap in the wall allowing the bats to enter but wouldn’t be able to repair until after our scheduled checkout. We asked to at least plug the gap with something temporarily and so they did. They also advised us to close the bedroom door and not use the room, which wasn’t going to be used anyway due to the horrible smell. Beyond the bat infestation the home needs a deep cleaning, spider webs throughout the home. The creek view was nice and the home has tons of potential but needs proper maintenance.

Serenity

We spend a lot of time at different VRBO's in N. GA and this was one of the best. Really no negatives as the kitchen was fully stocked, everything was clean and comfortable for us and 7 others between 15-24. Never even used the hot tub as we spent most of the time in the river. Didn't need to reach out to management once because everything was there for us, so that was good. Go buy a few floats from Walmart ($6 ea) then float down the river a half mile or so. There is a dirt road on the opposite side to walk back, and we put in further up the river and floated back home...so easy! I will say that the driveway is steep but not terrible. Also its 76 stairs from the kitchen to the river (yes, we counted). Definitely got in our cardio but well worth it. We also brought some folding chairs and put them in the river to read books while the water cooled our feet. Will be back if schedules align.

You get what you pay for

Our group definitely had mixed feelings staying at this property.The good: the price was good, the location was great, the actual size of the property was great for our group, and the river in the backyard was very scenic. The bad: This property was not clean and lacked basic necessities. I cleaned something up off the floor and removed a whole layer of just grime/dirt off the floor. We had to buy extra trash bags, sponges, and dish soap. There was half a roll of toilet paper for our group of 10 which was problematic for a multi-night stay. The owners left a note saying to use a specific type of toilet paper due to the septic system. I called VRBO to see what type of toilet paper the owners would prefer but VRBO was not able to tell me. The other frustrating thing was that VRBO said they would bring our group toilet paper for our stay which of course was never delivered.
