We had the best time during our stay at Trout Haven Lodge.(We shed a few tears during checkout) It was truly a little slice of heaven. We didn't leave the cabin for 3 days straight! The property was immaculately clean, and had all the amenities. We spent 90% of our time outside down by the water or on both porches, grilling out and watching football. Downtown Ellijay is only a few miles away and has the cutest little shops and restaurants. Most everywhere was dog friendly which is a huge bonus! This was our second time booking with Sliding Rock Cabins and we can't wait to book another one, maybe in the summer next time!! Thanks Again!

This is the first overnight trip we've been able to take with the "girls" (Sophie, Panda and Ginny) since we moved to the Atlanta area. I don't know who had more fun, us or them. Getting to the cabin was easy, the instructions were spot on. And the cabin was exactly as described. We appreciated all the "extras" that were left out for the girls, making them feel at home as well. At home they are allowed on all the furniture, but we understand how their fur can get anywhere, so we really appreciated the extra covers so they could go anywhere and lay down where they wanted, and we didn't have to be stressed keeping them off of anything. Since it was winter, we didn't hang out all that much on the balcony or the fenced yard with them, but when we come back in warmer weather we will for sure take advantage of the fenced areas. (Yes, of course we're coming back!) Sophie loved the access to the water, she got to run around in the river. Everything was clean, and easy to find and use. Communication was easy, as well as getting the key. We've already recommended it to friends. Seeing as it was a quick weekend getaway at the end of the winter holidays, once we got to the cabin we stayed and enjoyed the quiet and calm. And whatever coffee beans they leave for you... really good coffee!

We had a great time and the property was perfect for our getaway!

This is third time we have stayed at this cabin in 2025. Love the location of this cabin and that it's along the river.

We loved everything about our rental. Cabin was just as described, clean and well kept. Loved the beautiful secluded location. Would happily stay again or recommend it to friends.

We love Nativa, it provides everything we look for in a mountain retreat. The view every morning watching the sun comes up is beautiful with the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background. Love the fenced in area for the doggos so we don't have to worry about them getting into trouble investigating the area. The cabin has every amenity that we needed and we really enjoyed the fireplace. Looking forward to staying again!

Beautiful, spacious cabin. Quiet and peaceful. So wonderful that we can bring our pet! We loved the fenced in back yard. It was very nice and relaxing sitting on the screened in porch watching the deer. Cabin was centrally located. We plan to stay again this summer. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

We stayed for Christmas 2025 and it was amazing! This property is clean and very new. We would definitely return!

Cute cabin, peaceful and beautiful. Enjoyed the hot tub and morning coffee on the porch! Dogs loved it, loved the extra little fenced area and they enjoyed sunning on the fenced porch. No issues with Google Maps and phone service worked normally. Would stay again!

We had the best time in this little cabin. The creek is everything - sitting in the hot tub listening to it at night was fantastic. The cabin is clean and feels new. Loved it and will be back.

We rented River Dance Cabin from 12/26/25–1/2/26, and it was absolutely wonderful. The cabin is at the end of the road, right on the river, and you can hear the river rushing from the decks—so peaceful and relaxing.

The cabin is very well equipped with everything you need. We especially loved the gated decks and yard, which made it perfect for our 2 Bernedoodles to safely enjoy as much (or as little) free roam as they wanted. The dog-friendly touches were exceptional—dog bowls, muddy-paw towels, treats, and even poop bags were thoughtfully provided.

The road to the cabin was not bad at all, and the directions were precise and easy to follow. The cabin itself is lovely, cozy, and full of special touches. We also really enjoyed the hot tub, especially during the colder days.

The location is ideal—close to many hiking trails and waterfalls. There were quite a few house rules, but we completely understood and didn’t mind at all; we’d want the same if we owned such a beautiful place. Communication was excellent, especially with helpful texts during the freezing temperatures.

We definitely recommend River Dance Cabin. Thank you for a relaxing and fun adventure, and for allowing us to share your special place!

VERY NICE PROPERTY, ONLY THE PICTURES MAKE IT LOOK BIGGER THAN IT IS. BUT VERY CUTE AND COZY. SLIDING ROCKS WAS VERY NICE TO WORK WITH.

The folks at Sliding Rock Cabins have their act together! I was very impressed with the excellent and timely communication. The cabin was clean, very comfortable, and in a delightfully secluded location. Our 2 dogs appreciated the fenced area, the big porch, and the great creek area. Double Tap Creek was the quiet after Christmas get away we needed to unwind and recharge.

We had a very nice stay here. It was what we expected for rest and relaxation. The beds were comfortable. We built a campfire at the firepit and made smores. We built a fire in the fireplace. The kitchen was stocked with Kerig,coffee pot, crockpot,kitchen scissors and panini maker. The only thing missing was a can opener. There was a nice screened in porch to sit and look down at the river (which has a few rapids just not time of year to be in the water). We saw 4 deer walk right up one morning and one night a buck on the property. There are crows and squirrels also. I would stay here again. ��

We arrived to a clean welcoming cabin. The TV was on a yule fire channel and we were delighted to see how well equipped the kitchen was!
Our stay was filled with many hours of peaceful quiet, meals cooked in your well equipped kitchen and nights by the fire. We also enjoyed the hot tub as an additional stress free way the spend our evenings.
While we didn't go out to any restaurants because we brought our dogs with us, we happily spent time with each other playing Jenga, Scrabble and other games provided. Our Frenchies were thrilled to have a new place to while away the days with us instead of at a daycare! Thank you for your pet policy! It made our decision easy when we read the reviews and description of your cabin.
We even got to enjoy a lunch visit from our friends from Asheville who are now interested in renting the cabin for a future stay for themselves.
We will definitely be booking another stay here in 2026!

For the first time ever to rent a cabin i must say that it was the best experience ever. Such a quick last minute vacation became the BEST ever. Our pups our kids my hubby we all enjoyed and look forward to another one for longer period God willing.

This was one of the nicest VRBO experiences we’ve ever had. The home is beautiful, comfortable and has a very well equipped kitchen. There are many different areas to relax in, each with a view of the lake. The host was always helpful and easy to communicate with.

Cabin was cozy and well suited for our needs! Pups and us, especially my grandson, loved the little creek behind the cabin - it was my grandson's 1st creek experience! The screened in porch was also nice and the drive to the cabin, easy. The screened in area for the dogs is pretty steep and so not a space you'd want to keep them for very long. Good place for keeping them while loading in and out though.

I had an incredible stay at this cabin with my two dogs. The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and everything worked perfectly. The kitchen was very well stocked, even an air fryer for the quicker stuff, which made cooking easy. The area was great for my dogs, though I’d recommend keeping a close eye on them if you have any escape artists. There are gaps at the stairs for the fenced in area. The location was easy to find, and the house access was simple and smooth. We loved seeing so much wildlife, especially the deer. I would absolutely stay here again.

My husband and I had a great weekend with our greyhound at Highlands Cottage! It was perfect for a weekend of relaxing and watching football with a cozy fire. We loved walking through the neighborhood and seeing some festive lights! The cabin was stocked with everything we needed to cook and eat there!

We love this place. It’s the space we needed and we had a beautiful weekend.

Enjoyed my stay. Nice and quiet location.

The house was very nice and clean. Roomy for 6 guests. The road to cabin is a bit treacherous but worth it. The outdoor tv and grill area was a hit with the older kids, it was a bit cold for us older folks. All in all it was a great place and the water right out of the sink is delicious. I posted pics on facebook and people are wanting the rental info.

Had a great time at Sound of Silence. The cabin had everything we needed for the long holiday weekend

I was genuinely blown away at my stay with Sliding Rocks! The cabin was extremely clean! This was such a huge plus. As a cabin that allows dogs, I was pleasantly surprised by how clean it was on check it. The dog friendly supplies were the cherry on top of our stay and made it so easy to travel with 2 dogs. The cabin was so secluded from the world and we had the best time! Will definitely be back!

We really enjoyed our stay. So much thought was put into making us and our fur babies comfortable. The cabin had everything we needed. The view and sound of the creek was our favorite. We loved seeing the deer each day too. We definitely plan on returning.

We've stayed in many Sliding Rock cabins over 15 years, and this was our first time at this one. The location is lovely, and we appreciate a wood-burning fireplace. Another positive on our list.

It was a beautiful getaway. Everything was perfect. Coming from Florida, we were only used to flat terrain. This was really new for me, but as the direction stated in their welcome book, slow and steady is the key! Everyone on the mountain is very respectful. The restaurants and excursions we did were also amazing and there is so much to do in the area! Thank you for extending your beautiful cabin to my husband and I for my birthday celebration as well as for Thanksgiving.

I loved how private the cabin was but was very glad for the description of the roads leading to it so we were prepared for it.

We loved everything about this Cabin. We have rented 2 others and they were great too, but we liked being on one floor. It was better for our older dog. The daily visit from the deer was a nice addition. One morning we had as many as 15 at one time. The home was immaculate and fully stocked with everything you may need in kitchen and bathroom. The fry pan was scratched, so we bought another one and left in draw for the next renter. The River Resort was great for walking and taking the dogs for walks daily. They made friends with the dogs down the way too. There is a dog park at Fish Trap Park near the Riverside pool. The cabin was close to all stores and you can take the back road to downtown Ellijay which is very convenient. We will definitely be renting again in the near future.

Cozy, comfortable quiet place! Clean and nicely appointed. Separate fenced in yard was great for the pups! Hot tub area was nice!

absolutely loved our stay. The cabin was great, very comfortable, clean and the view was to die for. We even was treated to a day of snow flurries which made the whole trip.

We have stayed at this beautiful cabin 3 times and as usual enjoyed it very much. Close to our favorite places, Mecier orchards, Roo vineyards and Ellijay. We will be back.

Wonderful location. Lots of outside room. Just wish the fenced area for the dogs was a grassy area and not granite rocks. My pups had a rough time adjusting to potty time there.

If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind, this is it. If you are looking for things to do, then this is not the place for you. Cabin was perfect little getaway to relieve some stresses of today’s world. Highly recommend The Last Catch restaurant in Jasper, just a few miles away. Great fresh seafood! Happened to be there during a festival which was amazing. Overall I’d highly recommend this as a great place to escape to.

We had a great time in a beautiful home. We got to watch deer walking in the yard and the children saw snow for the first time. We will definitely come back.

Very nice cabin. It was very comfortable and clean. Will definitely stay again.

Our pups recognized the cabin as we drove the winding road to get there. Great stay! Relaxing and cozy! We experienced 76 degrees, leaves changing color, 21 degrees and snowfall all in One week! Amazing timing!

amazing

From booking our Cherokee Shoals Sliding Rock mountain vacation to check-out time, customer service and providing us with any necessary information was fantastic! We were given very specific driving directions which was extremely helpful due to arriving after dark. As we entered our cozy cabin, already lit up with welcoming Christmas lights, we immediately felt at home! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of paradise where we could relax with our family dog, too! Upon daylight the first morning, it was evident that we were truly in paradise... the gorgeous setting on a flowing stream, we caught our first glimpse of the many deer that visited us everyday! We will be back soon!!!

Loved it great place to stay nice and cozy ,the road is a little bad in some places ,I have an SUV we had no problems , I have been staying with sliding rock for years . We love it . See ya next year . Ps. Love the beds

We had the most relaxing time at Fauna Lodge6.Enjoyed the wildlife each day. The daily walks along the roads. A roaring fire nightly was so wonderful. The cabin was just great for 3 people and 3 dogs.
Added bonus, a fenced in dog park.
None of us wanted to leave.

We had a wonderful stay at River Rock. I especially loved how there was the yard and deck over the water all gated in. The dogs had a ball. The cabin was very nice too.

Great as always

We had the best relaxing week! We loved waking up to the beautiful sunrise Mountain View from the upstairs bedroom, enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub almost daily, loved venturing out hiking and having our pups with us too it all off. We will definitely be back!

Cozy Bear Cabin exceeded our expectations! It was perfect in every way.

We have stayed in Song of the South two years in a row. We love it. Fits out needs perfectly. Favorite part is the firepit area with the babbling sound that is so peaceful and private. Love the hot tub area. The cabin has all we needed and nice a clean. This year we went to Dahlonega and loved it. We rode the train last year and did the rail bikes this year.

This place was absolutely perfect from when I booked it until I left. The bedding, dishes, everything was very well thought out. The small pet relief area was great also. I would highly recommend

Inside of the cabin is just as pictured and gorgeous!!! It's a great cabin if you want easy access in and out or if you just want to curl up inside. It is off the main road so it can be a little noisy from cars during the day. Security does patrol wish is nice. Decent views and a great community. Would return!

We had a wonderful time celebrating our 30th anniversary and included our dogs. The cabin was well equipped for the exception of a microwave. The gas fireplace and fireplace were so easy and convenient to use. We loved the seclusion. We will be back again.
