Charming Cottage in Downtown Ellijay, Hot Tub
Great host and lovely cottage!

Mad Hatter Cottage ~ *Dark Whimsical Riverfront*
Our stay at this charming cottage was nothing short of magical. Tucked away in a serene, picturesque setting, it offered the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The cottage was cozy, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully decorated, exuding mystery and comfort at every turn. Waking up to the gentle sounds of nature, enjoying coffee on the stunning porch, and basking in the breathtaking views made each day unforgettable. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, ensuring every detail was perfect for our stay. This cottage isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to reconnect, relax, and create cherished memories. We left with hearts full of gratitude and minds already planning our return. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful, rejuvenating retreat.

Hot Tub! Modern-Cozy-Perfectly Located
We spent a month here and felt at home from the moment we arrived. A beautifully remodeled farm home with a picturesque view of the foothills and farmland. Super close to Yaoola Creek park and Dahlonega center, too. And if any issue arose, they responded immediately. Jeana, the property manager, went above and beyond for us. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an escape to the beautiful north Georgia countryside.

DTBR-Walk to Everything! King Bed, Hot Tub, Sauna
We loved the close proximity to Main Street and all the restaurants. The hot tub and spa were a great addition to our stay.

Bougie in Blue Ridge
The home was beautifully decorated for the holidays making us feel at home from the start. The home had all the amenities needed and very clean. Laura was a great host providing information on what to do in the area and responses to any questions we had. Had an a time! A wonderful way to start the New Year!

Ferngully Cottage / Hot Tub / Mtn Stream
I loved my stay at Ferngully! Everything was as described. Instructions were clear and thorough. I felt right at home. I didn’t utilize all of the amenities, but there was plenty if needed. The hot tub was great which was a major factor in booking. Location was another factor. I enjoyed an amazing sunset from Bell Mountain, which is not far. I also rode over to Alpine Helen.

Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Nature, Seclusion, Family
We have nothing but wonderful things to say about our stay here! Dahlonega is only about an hour away from home for us, but we love the little town. We didn’t want to travel too far for just a weekend, so we picked somewhere close to home, but still enough distance to get away. From the ease of booking, to the communication from the host, to the directions, to our arrival and pictures doing the place just, and so much more. It was clean. It’s kid friendly which is what sold us as a family of 6 with our youngest being 3. The older kids loved the hot tub, while our 3 year old loved the toys and the playground. All of us loved the yard and open area. We enjoyed making s’mores by the fire at the beautifully lightened outdoor patio. There is a home next door, but it still felt very private. We so enjoyed our stay for my 30th birthday celebration. The kids want to come back! We would highly recommend to anyone and everyone! Thank you Michael and Sydney for an incredible experience!

A-Frame Getaway! 3 beds, 2 baths, hot tub
Our first stay in Georgia was absolutely perfect! The house was so wonderful. I can say they put in a lot of care into the air bnb. There’s everything you need plus some to cook, enjoy a fire, paint rocks, or just relax and enjoy some quite outside air! My family and I will most definitely return to enjoy making some more memories in Georgia! ❤️

Charming 19th Century Schoolhouse Retreat
What an oasis Callie has created! So glad we chose The Schoolhouse for our weekend get-away. This beautifully decorated home was so cozy, a true comfort from the hustle and bustle of daily life. We felt at home in the beautiful Georgia countryside. Could go back time and time again. Callie’s attention to detail has preserved its history and tells a story in every room.

Koi Cottage- 3-bed, 2-bath- Cozy, Newly Renovated!
this little gem is beautiful and if you want to feel disconnected and just enjoy nature this is the pot to be. The koi fish are beautiful, watching deer walka around the property is so peaceful, we had a great time here. Helen, GA is only 20 min away and you enjoy all the amenities they have. however, if you want to stay in the you'll be fine too. the place is fully stocked with all the amenities you need to cook a meal or you go outside and enjoy the fire pit. this place is definitely one of our favorites, will definitely go back. the host is very responsive and communication is awesome. I will definitely recommend this place.

Bella Cottage
My dog usually barks at anything that moves. She found peace and quiet. Not even a whimper all night. That was her first time away from home and that was an absolute plus for us.

Charming Cottage-Duplex Downtown Clarkesville
This is the best location! Right in the center of Clarksville. Easy walk to all the little shops. Great place to stay while in N. Georgia.

Mary’s Cottage - Historic Roswell - Walkable
Mary's place was every bit the cozy cottage of my dreams! The lovely yard and garden, the beautiful master bath, the comfortable sunroom overlooking the back, and even waking up to the sounds of happy chickens next door every morning were just delightful! Mary gave us a very well put together list of local restaurants and things to see, and the neighborhood was quiet and many of those sights and sounds were well within walking distance. Thanks so much, Mary, for such a lovely stay! Looking forward to stopping in again if we ever find ourselves back in the area!

Woodstock Cottage - Great location - Pet Friendly
Scott and Lisa’s house is home from home. Everything is provided. The family enjoyed the darts board and table football. The house is a 20min walk into Woodstock. Where there are some nice restaurants. Would definitely recommend it to anyone going to stay in Atlanta.

The Lake House Cottage
This home is in a gorgeous location right on the lake. There is opportunity to hang out outside or inside, depending upon weather. It was in the 30’s and rainy when we were there, the home was very cozy. It was too wet for the fire pit. The dock would be great for spring and summer hangouts. We fished by the lakeside on the last afternoon when the sun came out. Saw a couple of deer every evening and morning. Lots of restaurants, shopping, grocery nearby. The beds were comfy, linens clean, house was clean, heater worked. I would stay here again.

Wanderlust Cabin #5 *Near Helen. Adventure Awaits!
We loved the cabin and would stay there again if we come back to the area. It was so peaceful and beautiful. The cabin is about a 10 minute drive to Helen. There are several wineries nearby and lots of places to hike.

5.5mi to Helen - Couples Shower - Private Fire Pit
We had a great restful weekend getaway at the cottage. The space was perfect for a couple, was very clean, comfy and modern and everything was as pictured and described in the listing. The area was very quiet and set in the woods but still very close to everything that you wanted to do. We loved the outdoor firepit which gave us a place to relax after a long day of sightseeing. The double shower was a nice perk. The kitchen had everything you needed if you wanted to make any of your own meals. The driveway is steep and gravel but we had no issues with our sedan. Robert was a great host. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend.

Sautee Valley Farm Cottage
The air bnb had a cozy feel perfect for a short stay.

Pet-Friendly Studio Cabin Near Helen & Blue Ridge
This Airbnb was a cozy and quiet cottage surrounded by trees, and song birds. There were other small cottages on the property but our place felt private. We enjoyed watching the chickens roaming around and the neighbors’ horses were beautiful to watch as well. This place is a 40 minute curvy mountainous drive to the “German” themed town of Helen and about a 15 minute drive to the town of Blairsville. Also about a 30 minute drive to short hiking trails and waterfalls. The owners provided a very helpful information book containing menus from nearby restaurants and other things to do. The cottage has a queen bed, loveseat, recliner chair, tv, dining table for 2, and a small kitchenette.

Ferny Creek Cottage
Will was an amazing host, very proactive on communication. The place was gorgeous, we were sad that we couldn't stay longer than one night (due to our schedule) because it just was the cutest little vacation spot. We do plan on coming back and staying longer next time. Thank you so much Will for everything!

Blue Ridge Cottage! 3 mins to lake/4 mins to town
We spend a few days after Christmas and the place was clean and quiet to relax , we definitely stay here again .

Modern, Forest Cottage w/ Hot tub in Wine Country
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Blissful Point. It was easy to find and we felt welcome from the moment we walked in. It was exactly like the photos —very clean, cozy & had everything we needed for a long weekend getaway. We really appreciated the welcome note & snacks too. It’s located in a great spot that is quiet & peaceful, but still an easy drive to downtown Ellijay (grocery, restaurants & shopping). We had a great time hiking on a nearby trail, visiting some local wineries (Roo Mtn was our favorite), and exploring the beautiful scenery around Ellijay & Blue Ridge. Such a great place to relax & unwind. We highly recommend Blissful Point & would love to stay there again.

Newly Renovated Country Cottage
Courtney's place is a lovely older house, perfectly located foir our visit with relatives in Dawsonville. It was also a beautiful drive to Dahlonega.

Lake Nottely Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home!! Accommodations could not have been better! We will be coming back!!
