Secluded Cabin Right on the Ellijay River minutes from Ellijay or Blue Ridge

This Secluded Cabin is just steps from the beautiful Ellijay River. Listen to the water rush by as you relax on the back screen porch or on the deck overlooking the river. You can relax in the hot tub or read a book sitting on our big rocking chairs. Use the firepit to roast your marshmellows or hot dogs or fire up the grill for your favorite steaks, burgers, or prized grilled chicken dish. You can stroll down this secluded road and visit with some of the local horses, donkeys, or goats or play an outdoor game in the big back yard. You will surely relax in this cozey cabin. Build a wood fire in the fireplace, make a drink, put your feet up and watch the stress slip away.

Heavenly!
It was as an amazing 3-day stay. Relaxing, rejuvenating, and restorative! From the babbling creek to the red-head woodpecker, sitting on the porch in a rocking chair with a cup of coffee was my ideal vacay. Thank you!

The property was easy to find, spotless, beautifully furnished. We found everything we needed. The owner was very helpful & nice. We especially enjoyed the rushing water sounds and roasting hot dogs & marshmallows on the fire pit. Best place we have ever stayed!

Terrific location! Great log cabin!
We loved the location of this wonderful log cabin. ‘‘Twas so easily accessible to the main highway and both Blue Ridge and Ellijay. What great little towns! The living room was comfortable and well appointed. The screened porch was wonderful, and the hot tub quite relaxing. We did wish the path to the hot tub was a bit safer. Just some flat concrete stones would work nicely. I am a nurse and I’m always thinking ‘ safety’. We loved the lay out of the cabin and its privacy, but I will say that the king size mattress was one of the hardest we’ve ever slept on. I think we would come back again if we could have the issues resolved that disappointed us . The first one was the dock. This cabin is advertised with a picture of a useable dock by the river, and the only one there is is a dilapidated structure cordoned off with yellow caution tape. We were looking forward to sitting there and couldn’t , nor could we climb on the steps to the river because the only place to hold onto was the questionable dock. Just remove it and that will eliminate further disappointments. Or at least don’t advertise it. Also, instructions to use the TV don’t match with the remote. Numerous calls were placed for help, but those went unanswered. Thank goodness we subscribe to a streaming service so we had TV, just not ‘live’. I know we would have loved the fire pit, but the yellow jackets got first dibs, and one sting was enough. Disappointments aside. We still loved the cabin and will return.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Great Waters Cabin. Everything about it--the style of the cabin, the easy process of check-in and check-out, the furnishings--was inviting and welcoming. A genuine jewel vacation spot!

Positive and negative
Positive: Right on the creek, perfect for kids. Good size yard. Easy access to everything the Aska adventure area offers. Clean. Plenty of blankets and pillows and extras in the kitchen. Negatives: Hard beds. Lack of hot water and not so great shower heads. "Screened" porch has lots of holes and rips and the wood plank deck allows mosquitoes in. They ate us up on the screened porch. Deck on the creek is falling into the creek and had caution tape up. Hot tub had so much chlorine, we couldn't use it. The fumes were too strong.

Beautiful property and was so welcoming!
We decided quickly that this was our favorite place we had stayed in using Vrbo. The river and view from the porch were both peaceful and like listening to a recording of water over the rocks. Coffee on the porch was enjoyed each morning. The cabin was very comfortable and clean. We do plan to come back for fall and Christmas in the future. This was a wonderful get away with good roads and easy access.

We are pleased with this cabin!
Cozy, quiet, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. Enjoyed the “tidbit” of history at the Whitaker Cemetery up the hill. It was a wonderful Christmas Holiday for us. If you need a lot of quiet/down time, this is the place. Very easy to find. No security gates ( like some other locations) to try to get through which can be a bother. The cows across the river were fun to listen to and watch. Would I stay here again? Yes, absolutely!

This property is wonderful. It's just as it was presented on the website, but better in person. The location of the cabin gives you access to a huge area for day trips, but we almost didn't want to leave the cabin. I definitely hope to return in the very near future. Thank you for such a fantastic experience!
