Annual Cabin Trip

This cabin was amazing! This kitchen was the best stocked of any cabin we’ve rented in the past. We enjoyed the beach as well as the deck for relaxing by the creek. Overall the cabin was beautifully decorated with very comfortable bedrooms, enough for our party of 12. We’ll definitely book it again!

We had such an amazing time at The Grande Lodge. It was the perfect size for our family. We went fishing, played games that were provided as well as fed deer by hand in the front yard which was a fun experience. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed. The beautiful kitchen had everything we needed to cook every meal (minus groceries). The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were nice and clean. The cabin has plenty of parking. It also has plenty of seating - both inside and out. The owners communication was great. We knew what to do upon arrival and departure ahead of time. I have only great things to say about this cabin and Brad (owner). If you are looking for a cabin in ellijay on the river, consider The Grande Lodge… ITS WORTH IT!
Feeding a deer by hand!
So many take deer to enjoy.
Beautiful morning on the river.
Thankful our fur baby was able to join us on this trip.

Absolutely wonderful

This is truly a wonderful cabin. The home is gorgeous and so thoughtfully designed. The layout cannot be beat for a large family or group. We enjoyed the beautiful fireplaces both inside and out, the hot tub and game room. But the best part was being able to walk straight out to the beautiful river. We brought out kayaks and fishing poles and had a glorious time. The Alexa's for music, well stocked kitchen and coffee pots in the bedrooms made for a truly relaxing and convenient getaway. I cannot gush enough about this amazing place! And I must mention how wonderful Brad was to work with. Very attentive and helpful. Thank you so much!

The Best Christmas Ever!

Our family ranging from 65yo - 4yo all thoroughly enjoyed themselves at this Elestay! This house was perfect! The owner has a quick response time for any questions and provided a DELICIOUS apple pie that we immediately baked and ate. He has a service that mails you lost items which saved us a ton of time and money for the valuable items that we left. The home is huge but still feels homey. We are already discussing when to book again. You may need more than a weekend to fully enjoy everything it has to offer.

Wonderful stay over NYE

We had a great time staying at the Grande Lodge! The location right on the river was the best part, and even though it was cold, our kids loved being able to fish right off the dock. The community is also great with lots of activities for kids. The house was clean and very well stocked with extras and things that you dont typically find in other rentals (like flashlights in the bedrooms). The owners have truly thought of everything and were very responsive throughout the stay when questions arose. We'd absolutely stay here again!

This was easily the best VRBO we have rented. The property was beautiful and the pictures really don't do the riverfront justice. The house was well stocked with necessities and the owner has clearly put a lot of time into their handbook and website which made the entire interaction feel very professional compared to many rentals.

The Perfect Retreat!

If I could give 6 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would! From the tranquil location to the well thought out details, this home had it all! When we arrived we were greeted by a local apple pie as a gift from the owners. From there, all of the details were noted; keurigs and hair dryers in every room/bathroom, a fully stocked kitchen with all of the amenities you could need, plenty of plates, bowls and glassware for 8 people. The best part of our stay involved our daily enjoyment of the river. We jumped in and floated every day. The location was great as it was secluded and away from the hustle and bustle. However, if you want to run into downtown or to the local Wal-mart, it’s a quick 15 minute drive. The owner, Brad, has created an incredible manual that literally notes everything, including suggested things to do in the local area. He was also quick to respond within 5-10 minutes for anything pre, during or post trip! Overall, this is a fantastic property and we hope to stay here again!
