About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Right on Clear Creek Tiny Home! Secluded yet convenient to town.

Search 279631 for our Pondside cabin. Please note that we have a surveillance camera which hangs on the edge of the roof of our garage. It only records what is in the driveway. this is for your safety and ours.

Forest Cabins of Ellijay is set on 6 acres of pristine old-growth forest of hardwoods and huge white pines. The acreage is bordered by about 900 feet of Clear Creek. Clear Creek is about 20 feet wide . And you have a lovely view of the rushing trout stream. Sit on the covered porch and listen to the pileated woodpeckers, babbling stream, crickets, frogs and lake loons. Most visitors will spot deer taking advantage of the creek or a blue heron fishing for supper.

When you’re ready to stretch your legs, lace up your hiking boots for a trek along the Tumbling Waters Trail, an easy 1-mile out-and-back hike that meanders through the forest in the Ridgeway Recreation Area at Carters Lake and across a wooden bridge to a series of waterfalls on Tails Creek. More adventurous souls may want to explore the Cohutta Wilderness Area, which boasts 13 trails totaling more than 87 miles of remote, often rugged hiking through the Cohutta Mountains, Georgia’s portion of the Smoky Mountain range.


Designate Go Wine! Tours as your transportation for the day, or plan your own self-guided tour, starting with an afternoon at Ellijay River Vineyards. Here, you can sample wine in a small barn on-site, but the real appeal is buying a bottle to enjoy at the river bend, where Adirondack chairs, swings and a fire pit make for a picturesque picnic spot. For a more traditional tasting room experience, kick back with killer mountain views at Ott Farms & Vineyard, or cozy up by the roaring fire at Cartecay Vineyards, both of which offer live entertainment, light bites and often food trucks on the weekends.


Gaze at the millions of sparkling stars. Forget your work-a-day world and relax in the comfort of your little piece of heaven nestled in the Appalachian Mountains. Lounging in your wooden swing on the porch sipping your morning coffee to the tune of Cardinals, titmice, nuthatch, and other songbirds. The tree frogs are cacophonous.

After your morning adventures, head back to River Street Tavern for a burger made with local beef from nearby Bear Creek Cattle Co. and a cold craft beer. Next, hop over to MooBears Ice Cream for a sweet hand-dipped treat….Some of our favorite places.

A Little Piece of Heaven
If you’re looking for a place to wind down and relax, this is it! Jim and Sally, our hosts, were so welcoming and friendly, and the cabin was comfortable and cozy. We loved sitting by the fire each night; sleeping to the sound of the running creek; and waking each morning and sitting on the front porch with a cup of warm coffee while taking in the beautiful scenery.

Peaceful!
We loved our stay at the tiny-house forest cabin. It was a great way to unwind from city life. The cabin had everything we needed. Sally and Jim were excellent hosts and fun to talk to. We enjoyed the beautiful setting and the animals that passed by such as deer, heron's, cardinals, and some other unidentified cuties maybe a beaver. Lots of wonderful forest sounds along with the creek lulled us to sleep. We visited wineries and cider businesses. Tubing at the creek was fun too!

Tiny cabin on the creek
We fully enjoyed our stay and plan to visit again. The cabin is very small and rustic. Great location and not far from town yet you feel like your way out in the country which was exactly what we were looking for. The best part was the back deck overlooking the creek. If your looking for fancy, move on. Jim and Sally were wonderful hosts. If your looking for easy, peace and quiet, it’s a 5 star!

Nice little stay
We had a great time! The area is very nice and the house is very convenient to town and the vineyards and apple orchards. We also hiked Amicalola Falls (which is beautiful but not for the faint of heart, FYI so be prepared!) We ate at the Roof and really enjoyed it. Ott Vineyards was super nice as well.

Exactly as described, exactly what we were looking for!
I booked this place as a weekend getaway for my boyfriend’s birthday - he loves to fish/golf/hike - the cabin is within walking distance to at least one excellent hiking trail with some great fishing spots! Not to mention it’s right on a creek. The space was perfect and had everything we needed! Very easy to keep warm and comfortable. The owners were so kind and helpful. WiFi was solid enough for us to watch the football game Saturday night, and cuuuuute restaurants and shopping very nearby. We also went up to Toccoa Farms to golf - it was an easy 30-35 minute drive, and he said it was his new favorite course. Gorgeous. We will be visiting again!

I hate to use the word “seclude”. But it is very private without be “remote”. The view is absolutely stunning. The whole tiny cabin experience was perfect for two. Everything you need in a cozy area. Jim and Sally were delightful. Jim built these and the workmanship is unbelievable! Highly recommend!

Pleasant creek side escape
We absolutely loved our stay here. The views and sounds were wonderful and we enjoyed the hospitality of our hosts. The cabin was well stocked and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. My husband said that of all our trips this was his favorite and he especially enjoyed opening the screened window and letting the soothing sounds of the creek in.
