Charming Mountain Retreat in Ellijay, Georgia

10/26/2026

🎄 Christmas at the cabin — and it's one of the last ones open.

Our Christmas week (Dec 22–29) is still available, and if you know these mountains, you know that doesn't last — the holidays book up here every year, and there aren't many cabins this size left for the week.

Picture it: the tree lit up in the great room, a fire going, everybody piled into the theater for a Christmas movie, and the hot tub steaming out under the trees after the kids finally crash. Sleeps 6, minutes from downtown Ellijay. 3-night minimum over the holiday week.

If Christmas in the North Georgia mountains is on your family's list this year, now's the time. 🎄

🍂 This week just opened back up.

A stay fell through, so Oct 26–31 is wide open again at the cabin — right as the fall color peaks in the North Georgia woods. Hot tub under the trees, fire pit, home theater and arcade for the crew, fenced run for the pup. Sleeps 6, ten minutes from downtown Ellijay. Halloween weekend's open too. 🔥

Scary-movie marathon on a 100" screen, deep in the woods. 🎃 What could go wrong?

Halloween week is open at the cabin: Oct 25–31, including Halloween weekend itself. Leather recliners and surround sound downstairs, arcade for the brave, and a hot tub for when the credits roll.

Tomorrow night, this fire table could be yours. 🔥

The cabin is open Saturday Oct 17 through Wednesday the 21st. Take the weekend, or stretch it into a midweek escape while the woods are at their most colorful.

About two hours from most of Atlanta. Throw a bag in the car after work and you're on the screened porch by dark. 🍂

Sleeps 6 · dog-friendly · minutes from downtown Ellijay

Apple Festival's second weekend just opened up at the cabin. 🍎

October 17–21 is free: the Saturday–Sunday festival weekend plus the quiet midweek behind it. C***r and fried pies in town by day, fire pit under the trees by night, hot tub when your feet are done.

Late October is the stretch everybody asks us about in July. This is your shot at it. 👇

Three nights left in September — and then that's the month. ☕️

September 28, 29 and 30. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. The very last open nights we have before October.

Slow mornings at the coffee bar, apple season five minutes down the road, the woods going gold outside the windows, and the whole place to yourselves in the quietest week of the season.

After this, our calendar belongs to leaf season.

If you've got any flexibility at all this week — take it. 👇

Tonight and tomorrow are open. So is the whole week behind them. ♨️

September 25–27 is free, and so is the 28th through October 1st — the last real stretch of open nights we have before leaf season takes over.

The cabin is sitting here clean and ready. Pour something, get in, look up at the trees. That's the entire itinerary.

About two hours from most of Atlanta. Sleeps 6. The dog comes too. 🐾

Last-minute is honestly our favorite kind of booking — if you can go, go. 👇

Tag the person you'd need a rematch with. 🕹️

Every group has one. They lose at foosball, say "best two out of three," and suddenly it's 1am and the Ms. Pac-Man high score has changed hands four times.

Downstairs at the cabin: foosball, two arcade cabinets, air hockey, and the 100" theater right next door for when everyone finally calls a truce. 🎬

Rainy fall afternoon? This is where it goes. 🍂

So who owes you a rematch? 👇

Sleeps 6 · tucked in the trees minutes from downtown Ellijay.

Unpopular opinion: midweek at the cabin beats the weekend. 🍂

September 28, 29 and 30 are open — Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday — and midweek up here is a completely different trip. The trails are empty. Downtown Ellijay is calm. There's no line at the orchards.

Screened porch, gas fire table, coffee in hand, and nowhere to be until Thursday.

Those are the last three nights we have in September, and they're the cheapest ones on the calendar that week.

If you can move a couple of days around, this is the sweet spot of the whole fall. 👇
