Perfectly perched in the heart of Ellijay / Talking Rock wine country and just 500 yards from Chateau Meichtry, this impressive four-bedroom, dog-friendly cabin is made for families and friends who love to gather, play, relax, and explore. From the moment you arrive, the home's grand size and welcoming design make a lasting impression. Park under the covered carport, step under the covered breezeway, and make your way, while surrounded by outside lighting, especially helpful on rainy days, and enter a light-filled space where knotty pine walls, wildlife-inspired décor, and thoughtful mountain craftsmanship create a sense of cozy elegance. Large windows frame the scenic beauty outside, offering peaceful glimpses of the surrounding year-round mountain view and wooded landscape, a peaceful backdrop for your mountain retreat. Inside, the open-concept great room sets the stage for togetherness, anchored by a gas fireplace, 75" Smart TV, and plush reclining seating. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring custom cabinetry, quartz and granite counters, a gas stove with pot filler, double ovens, and an oversized island perfect for casual breakfasts or pizza night prep. (Yes, there's even a gas grill and pizza oven outside!) Outside, the experience only gets better. Gather on the covered deck in front of the 28-foot wood-burning fireplace, unwind in the 7-person hot tub with long-range views, or roast marshmallows under the stars at the fire pit with seating for seven. Whether you're sipping local wine or counting constellations, the peaceful rhythm of mountain life takes over. When it's time to unwind, each of the four bedrooms invites restful retreat with handcrafted wood-carved beds and plenty of space to spread out. Two expansive king suites, one on the main level and one upstairs, offer a true sense of privacy and comfort, each with an en-suite bathroom featuring double vanities, oversized showers with rain and standard showerheads, and built-in benches. The main-level suite also includes a freestanding soaking tub positioned to soak in the tub while taking in the mountain views. Upstairs, another king bedroom shares a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with the bunk room, which is perfect for kids or cousins, featuring two sets of full-over-full bunk beds and a futon. With granite counters, ample storage, and spacious layouts, every bathroom is designed with both style and function in mind, making group stays seamless and comfortable. Need a little friendly competition? Head to the game room, where a regulation pool table, air hockey, and classic arcade machine keep the fun going. There's even a wet bar with fridge and sink so you can stock up and stay upstairs. Just a short drive to downtown Ellijay's shops, eateries, and apple houses, and only 25 minutes from Blue Ridge, you're close to some of North Georgia's best attractions. Spend your days exploring nearby waterfalls, hiking the Appalachian Trail approach at Amicalola Falls, or floating down the Toccoa River. And don't miss a stop at one of the many local wineries dotting the region. From Salt Life to Mountain Life isn't just a getaway, it's a lifestyle shift. Spacious, scenic, and thoughtfully designed for connection, this home makes every moment in the mountains one to remember.

We had a group of 14 (moms and kids), and the house was perfection! Spacious indoor and outdoor space for all! We played games, grilled, used the jacuzzi, outdoor fireplace, made a bonfire, and went down to the winery nearby (within walking distance)! The home is well-equipped with everything we needed for cooking, but make sure to bring your own spices. We appreciated all of the games that were in the house for us to enjoy, along with the strong WiFi. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/13b4eab7-2455-4bfb-acd1-9d3001729d95-1754248819530.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![S’mores](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/acb5a650-0c5f-44e6-b9a3-9590bdd7f1b0-1754248819620.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Winerh](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0360e626-34f4-48e9-a9b6-40832ae11d9b-1754248820011.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Neighborhood walking](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9ac0472e-54c3-40ee-9e2f-abd340ee9580-1754248819753.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Carla J.
