The chalet was clean and well kept, exactly as indicated from previous guests. We especially appreciated all the attention to details the hosts put into the chalet - from the soaps in the bathrooms and kitchen, to the towels for the hot tub. The layout of the chalet provided plenty of room to spread out, while also allowing a lot of opportunities to spend time together. We really enjoyed hanging out together on the front and back porches, the hot tub, and the fire pit. The foosball table downstairs definitely saw some great family matches . So many great memories made! Our host, Victor, was amazing with communication from the very beginning. He was wonderful from check-in to check-out, always quick to respond if I had questions. Victor also provided some great ideas of things we could do in and around Ellijay during our visit. I only wish we had more time! We will definitely be back! ##### Anna B. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Travis C. 15 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect mountain getaway The first thing I want to say is the host was great. Easy communication through the app and he responded quickly. We didn’t need to communicate much though because the house had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked, in fact it had a full set of knives, cutting boards, and pots and pans. The house had 3 floors with a queen bed and full bathroom on each floor. Our favorite part was the hot tub which was right outside the basement door so it was easy to get in and out of. There were plenty of towels, which is helpful for how many times we went in the hot tub. He had a great time and hope to return again soon. I would definitely recommend this property. ##### Travis C.
