House holiday rentals in Gilmer County

My husband and I have been taking our family on mid-winter excursions for over 20 years. In the last 10+ years we’ve added 2 son-in-laws and 6 grandkids. Alternating between Georgia and East TN, this has easily been one of our favorite getaways. Our grandkids loved the downstairs area they felt was especially provided for them, but lured the rest of us too! While we had several options for activities in the area to keep the kids occupied over the long weekend, it wasn’t necessary as they preferred to stay at the cabin and enjoy all the fun and games provided along with movies and popcorn made in the vintage looking popcorn cart! The cabin is lovely and very well stocked in every way. There was an issue with the heat-pump, but our communication was seamless with the Fordham’s and they had technicians sent out quickly to look into the situation. The cabin is set in a quiet, lovely location that affords privacy and relaxation. We would definitely recommend Lake Dakwa Lodge.

My family and I were gathering together from 3 different states to one mountain cabin in Georgia. We found Beary Happy because it met our requirements. Upon arrival, it was much better than expected inside and out! Rainy times were not a problem because the home had plenty to keep us occupied while the resort had lots for us to do when tge sun shined. The property manager was very responsive and welcoming, providing us far more than we could have hoped for. We lacked nothing but groceries, which were nearby. The cabin was spotless and smelled fresh! We hope to go there again in the future and we thank you for hosting us.

Wonderful home for the whole family.

Cottage was as advertised and much more!! From seeing deer’s in the morning and evening as well as the recreation center for some arcade fun. The locution was within short drives to winery’s. Downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge are also short drives for grate places to eat and shop. Definitely will be back!!!

We absolutely loved the house! It was perfect for relaxing and spending time connecting! We really appreciated every small detail throughout the home down to the dog bones and bowls for the pups. These ladies thought of everything. It felt like home! Having stayed in many rental properties, this home is a shining star and one I would highly recommend! It was a positive and truly a memorable experience!

Had a great time. Everything was as expected, and as stated in the listing. Several extras that were a nice touch. Plenty of towels and extra blankets and pillows. Really enjoyed hot tub, fire pits, swings, rocking chairs, corn hole and outdoor grill. Inside, pac man and pool table were entertaining as well. Kitchen well stocked with everything but a good frying pan. I always bring my own just in case. Only other thing missing were mixing bowls. Overall excellent trip. We only went to clubhouse 1 day out of the 4 but throughly enjoyed that as well. Plenty of things to do. Indoor pool was really nice and large. Host were responsive on all questions with quick responses. Would definitely plan a trip back sometime in the future.

Place was beyond amazing! Made our little Spring break getaway one to remember. Russel’s place is so private and quiet. Kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed. Plenty of towels and hot water for a house full. My Littles, ages 4 & 7 were always busy, playing inside and outside, they were never bored. The river is shallow but so clear and beautiful. We even enjoyed listening to the geese and watching all the deer meander about. No one wanted to leave after a 4-night stay. We loved it so much. We ventured out hiking one day with some nice waterfall hikes and swinging bridge not too far away. Went shopping in Blue Ridge on another day, such a cute little area with boutiques and restaurants that my older kids loved. This is a beautiful mountain area to visit if you want to steer clear of the commercialized stuff Gatlinburg has to offer. We will definitely be back will recommend Russel’s place to our families and friends!

The place is beautiful and peaceful and relaxing. It’s also located in a resort full of amenities with plenty of things to do and see. Nick is a great host and always quick to respond and help with whatever you need. I can’t recommend this place enough! 5 stars all the way!!

Beautiful location and views. The house was well stocked with activities for our whole group and was not far from town. The house is located up a mountain so you definitely need off-road capabilities with your vehicle to get there but well worth it.

We stayed at Jodi’s place for a quiet girls’ weekend. It was perfect- plenty of places to sleep & great common areas for hanging out. We will definitely be back!

Great stay and the downtown area was super close. Loved hearing the cows

Debie is a wonderful host—responsive, kind, and always ready to help! If I ever need an Airbnb, I’d choose hers in a heartbeat.

I really enjoy the peace and quiet location and the house was beautiful and equipted with pretty much every thing we needed. I would love to go again in the future.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay! The home was peaceful, Host was responsive, It was lovely and over all just very welcoming. We felt right at home! One of the best thanksgivings my family has ever had.

Absolutely stunning! My family thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the home. We brought our four children with us. Youngest being eight and oldest is 17. They had such a blast downstairs. They thoroughly enjoyed the arcade, shuffleboard , pool table and of course, hot tub! I was pleasantly surprised at how we all fit in the hot tub comfortably. They put a lot of thought and love into this home. The house was spacious and beautifully designed. They responded to all my questions and concerns quickly. I will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you for sharing your home. I look forward to my next visit.

It was a beautiful relaxing cabin that had an amazing view. It was super cozy and we felt right at home. The place was clean and had everything we needed. There were only two of us staying there but definitely could have fit 4 people with it having two rooms. The host was wonderful and checked in on us to make sure our stay was comfortable. Would definitely recommend this cabin and would love to stay at this cabin again in the future!

We had a great time staying here, we had a couple issues upon arrival but they handled it within 24 hours, except the already broken toilet seat but hopefully they’ll fix that for future guests!

We had an incredible stay at this property! The location is perfect – it’s just a short distance to downtown Blue Ridge, making it incredibly convenient. The house itself is spotless, and the layout is ideal for a large family, offering plenty of space both inside and outside. The decor and amenities are top-notch, truly enhancing the overall experience. The back deck is a standout feature, with ample room to relax and unwind, especially with the outdoor fireplace adding to the cozy atmosphere. The beds are super comfortable, and the bathrooms feel luxurious and spa-like. Natalie was an excellent host – very responsive and clear with communication, ensuring we had everything we needed. I would rate this property a 10 out of 10! I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a high-end getaway in the mountains with easy access to downtown Blue Ridge. You can’t go wrong!

What a great stay in Blue Ridge! Beth’s cottage is minutes from downtown, beautifully appointed, and she’s a perfect host. We had great communication, easy check in and lots of local recommendations. We can’t wait to come back!

This was our second stay at The Huff House, and it was perfect for our family yet again! Nice and clean, perfect location, nice personal touches, great value, and an amazing host. Highly recommend The Huff House!

Perfect location for us, close to Ellijay and Jasper! Host was very communicative and helpful, even warning us in advance of potential ice or snow on the driveway! (Fortunately all was good.)

Very lovely home, even nicer in person! Fire pit and being so close to the river was wonderful! Views from the downstairs king room were stunning aswell!

I really enjoyed my stay. The only thing that I was kind of disappointed about was the hot tub didn’t work. The fireplace on the balcony doesn’t work and the grill didn’t work so that was a little disappointing for my birthday weekend but everything was great.
