We had a fabulous stay at Riverside Retreat. This area is one of our favorites in Ellijay. The cabin had everything we needed and we were able to relax. Our only suggestion would be to make the "fenced" yard a little more secure and a little bigger. We had no issues but the neighboring rental had dogs running loose and had ours been out at the same time, they would have been able to push the fence over. Other than that, we are completely satisfied with the property and will be putting on our list for future rentals.

Check in was easy having a lock box with the key and a code text prior to arrival. Kitchen was fully stocked for us to cook or grill there with ease. I much appreciate the deck which made getting waterside with a wheelchair very easy. It’s quiet, with easy access into the Ellijay river from the back yard. The cabin, although small, was well furnished and comfortable. Lots of wild life. All enjoyed the stay even our two pups.

Reviewer Comments:
3rd year in a row I have rented with Sliding Rock cabins. Each year, we have tried a new spot, but I think this will be a place to return to!! The cabin is big enough (4 adults, 3 dogs) to not be on top of each other, while also being cozy. The outside space is impressive! The boardwalk to the patio over the water is very well maintained and safe (unless you have a blind dog who tried to fall off the walkway!). Riverside Retreat had all the amenities needed, the grill was super convenient to the kitchen (though the grill grates could stand a replacement). Well stocked kitchen. Do note that the upstairs king "master" is not private- it is in a loft space. Only minor issue to us was that there was only 1 single 2 person hard wood bench in the covered porch. Fortunately, we traveled with some camp chairs, so we set that up on the enclosed deck to hang out outside during the rain. Relaxing, wonderful long weekend! Thanks!

Reviewer Comments:
The cabin was acceptable. Actually nice. I was very disappointed in several things. The hot tub never got above 85°. I was on usable. It’s what we used as a primary decision. The two chandeliers in the main part of the house did not work. There was only two wine glasses. Probably need more. And very minor, but the salt shaker was empty.
