Spring Break Getaway from Florida

Exactly what we were looking for with 2 nature-loving kids on their spring break! Beautiful location on a lake, immaculate home and property, short drive to downtown Blue Ridge and plenty of outdoor activities and hiking nearby! We recommend Amicalola Falls for hiking and the Blue Ridge Train, especially if you have kids. The host was quick and helpful with his communication and extremely friendly and welcoming! Thank you again!

Well- stocked/ Great location

Great location for winter break! Coming from Atlanta we placed a grocery pickup at the Walmart Ellijay which was an easy 20 min ride on to the house. The house is well stocked with necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, laundry supplies, cooking needs, etc). Some listings only provide “starter packs” of items but the owner is quite generous and truly thought of everything. The interior is the perfect set up for a family of four and is quite cozy. We enjoyed the lake for fishing and it was a nice area for dogs . As clearly listed this house isn’t for those with mobility issues. You have to take exterior steps to the hot tub, fire pit, and 3rd level room (no bathrooms). Overall we were really pleased with the property, location, ease of communication, and amenities. I would definitely recommend.
