Everything in the description was spot on. The house was wonderful. Being on the river was amazing. We took our dog and she had the best time ( who knew she would love playing in the river so much). Sitting by the fire with a glass of wine was so relaxing. It was the best anniversary (40th). We would definitely go back.

My two adult children and I haven’t vacationed together in far too many years. With four dogs between us and hectic work schedules, there was always an excuse. We finally planned this escape and I was fearful. To our surprise, the cabin was absolutely perfect! Our dogs loved it as much as we did. In fact, we booked a full week in November in the same cabin. Thanks to Julie and Tara for helping create the perfect place for such amazing memories!

It has been a decade since my two adult kids and I have been able to go on vacation together...especially as we have four dogs total! We stayed 3 nights and no one wanted to leave. In fact, we scheduled an entire week at the same cabin for this fall. Perfect. Amazing. Relaxing. Cozy. Julie and Tara were great when booking both trips! We ate out for lunch one day and cooked or brought back take-out every other meal, because the cabin was so enjoyable. My son travels for his job and insists that these 3 nights were the best sleep he has had in years! Our pups enjoyed swimming in the river and hanging out with us on the deck or at the firepit. Did I mention the deer and the fireflies? I am counting down the days until our next trip to the cabin in 3 months!

This cabin is very nice to stay in. It has a very large treed fenced in dog yard on one side an a nice tree lot on the other. The Ellijay River is beautiful and the property is right on it. You can go in the water with a bit of some root steps down. We had large dogs that just jumped down onto the shore of the River. No root steps needed for them. I recommend wearing some type of water shoe going down the roots. The roots are not sharp so don't worry about that.
The road to get to the many Sliding Rock Cabin rentals is typical of mountain roads. Mostly a gravel/dirt road with pavement going down a very steep hill by the cabin. The road can be very narrow in some spots where only 1 car can get by. I refused to drive it because it's not something I was comfortable with so I left the driving out and in to my husband. That road is about 1.5 miles.
You will be blessed with passing through the most beautiful covered bridge. Trucks have to take the creek entrance to the right.
I recommend it and taking a trip to hike the approach trail to the Appalachian Trail in Amicalola State Park and a hike at Fort Mountain both nearby.
We hated leaving.

Very nice soothing cabin
