About this house rental
Wandering Bear's Den
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Tucked away in the trees near Carters Lake, the Coosawattee River, and downtown Ellijay, this two-level home is a place to find relaxation after days spent hiking, fishing, tubing, or apple-picking.
As you enter, you'll be greeted by all the classic elements of a North Georgia escape - lofty ceilings of natural wood, a living room with ample seating and a streaming-equipped flatscreen TV, and a two-sided, wood-burning fireplace that warms both the living room and the kitchen to the rear. The kitchen is a cozy and well-appointed space, featuring stainless steel appliances (including a dishwasher), both a breakfast bar and a small bistro table for indoor dining, and a door that leads outside to the expansive back deck with its gas grill, covered dining table, and lovely views of the surrounding trees. Light up the firepit for a magical end to the day.
At night, you'll find the three bedrooms wonderfully separated for privacy. There are two, including the primary suite, on the main floor and one more upstairs that's perfect for kids. Additional amenities include central air conditioning, free WiFi, and a private washer/dryer for your convenience.
The resort has updated how guests gain access to the amenities on site. The guest will be responsible for purchasing amenity passes at the POA office. Monday-Saturday 9 am- 5 pm. Amenity passes are $59 per card. Each card allows 4 guests to use the amenities during the reservation dates. The POA only takes checks or money orders for payments.
The outdoor pools are open from Memorial Day to Labor Day only.
Fireplaces are operable from October 1st – April 15th only.

We enjoyed being in the mountains and close to wineries. It was a relaxing visit. The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2023
We booked property based on picture showing a flat drive. The bottom of the drive is flat, but you have two steep entrances. You have to gun the engine to get up and your car drags on the ground due to ruts and you can’t see if anyone coming down the road very dangerous. We tried both side of the circle drive and both bad. We parked on the side of the road after a neighbor told us he had not seen anyone park in the drive. The walk up and down is steep. We could not stay out late because it was too dark to safely attempt. We also had trouble with combination lock. We called Vacasa and the gave us code to lock box with a key. The key was hard to use because the lock spins. They were unable to fix it while we were there. Someone had been smoking because house smelled and we found wrapping paper inside the cabin. Would not recommend you stay unless you have four wheel drive. There is no place other than the deck for children to play. Cabin was nice and kitchen had all the essentials you would need.
