Girls Trip

This was a beautiful place to stay for our girls trip. It was close to the yarn shop and quilt shops but was also in a beautiful rustic location.

Rest and relaxation

Jake's Hideaway exceeded our expectations. The housekeeping staff was friendly and informative, and the cabin was impeccable and cozy. Even our fur baby enjoyed a break from the fast pace of city life. Our family could not ask for more. It felt like a slice of heaven. Thank you for your hospitality and we look forward til the next adventure. not have asked for a better place to stay.

Jake's Hideaway

The cabin was cute and clean, the hot tub was wonderful. Kitchen is pretty small for a group of 6-7. Better lighting in the great room (kitchen and living room area would be good, it was pretty dim.The problem we had was that two of us had to park down the hill to make room for other cars, there was no warning that 4-wheel drive might be needed to get back up. I tried 3 times to get my car up the hill to the driveway and kept sliding back down, the gravel gave no purchase. Finally someone was able to get the car up although it caused some gravel to spray, but it was a real issue. I was happy we didn't have to call AAA or a tow truck. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

A Bit of Heaven in Georgia

We had a wonderful family gathering at Jake's Hideaway. We loved the comfort of the house and the quietness of the surroundings. We hiked, bird watched, and fed the deer. Overall it was a wonderful Thanksgiving week.

Cozy, comfortable and accommodating

i We enjoyed the unexpected deer visits. The host was very helpful with information about the area and things we could do. She was very accessible. the kitchen was well supplied and enough linen was available. the only down side for us was not having a fire pit.

Christmas Family Getaway

Cabin was all it was advertised to be! Great communication with property manager. Cabin was very clean and lots of room. Perfect for our family of 10. Kids loved feeding the deer. We had up to 18 show up for breakfast. Close to downtown Ellijay. Enjoyed the shops! We would definitely stay at this property again.

Pleasant get away

We very much enjoyed our stay. The property is as described and we had no complaints about the cleanliness of the cabin. The hot tub and surrounding areas needed some attention, however. It wasn't clean. This did not spoil our visit, as the weather was rainy and cool. Perhaps roof additions over the porches could be considered. The abundance of deer throughout the resort was a surprise. We enjoyed watching them. But a forewarning on the property description might be considered.

Great Retreat!

My two year old son and I stayed at this cabin for a long weekend and we're very pleased with our experience. The cabin was very tastefully decorated and the entire cabin was beautiful inside and out. There was plenty of room and plenty of amenities including little details like a wide selection of movies and board games. The game room downstairs had a full sized pool table. The grounds were beautiful and very very quiet. The deer were everywhere! The resort was rather difficult to navigate for a FL girl, but we stumbled upon many of its offerings such as the many streams and ponds and playgrounds. I would definately recommend this place for a relaxing retreat.

Mountain Bike Trip

The property and cabin were well maintained. I have stayed at other cabins where there was plenty of toiletries (dishwashing soap, toilet paper, hand washing soap, etc.) I am not sure if a previous renter had purchased and left but this property had enough to begin with but I needed to purchase more. This was well documented but different. I used the hot tub which worked without issues. The wifi worked with out issues. The instructions on how to get to the cabin were spot on so that made it easier the first day. I look forward to coming back the next time I come to Ellijay for mountain biking.

Nice property... HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT

When we booked the cabin we were given a price, list of amenities, and all of the other details you are more than likely looking at already. A few days after booking we received an email from Julee King (property manager) stating that HomeAway did not have the right pricing for the dates we selected. We were asked to cancel the reservation and book again under the new pricing. The new pricing was a slight increase, but it was still within our budget. After booking we were notified by Julee that we need to sign an updated contract. The contract which shows a cancellation policy that is different than the HomeAway site, and many other oddities. We began looking for another cabin, but were advised by Julee that we would not be getting a refund based on the new contract. It is very odd that the contract is sent after you pay. If you book with them, please get the contract up front. Upon arrival we were delighted by a lit Christmas tree and a softly lit cabin. The warm feeling quickly sank as we noticed mounds of dust on the fans. We couldn't help but think of the contract and communication with Julee, so we began to inspect the home in detail. Aside from the dusty fans there were cookies and cereal in the couch cushions, crumbs on the counters, dust on all lamps and shelves, and a used women's sanitary napkin left in a dresser drawer. A few of the sliding glass doors don't lock, so a piece of wood is used to prop them shut. While not alarming it doesn't make one feel secure. Later our sons went to use the hot tub and came back inside after only a few minutes. They smelled of mildew and came inside to find out why. After looking at the hot tub I noticed a layer of black film on the surface of the water, black mildew on the white fixtures inside of the hot tub, and later saw a filter caked in mildew to the point that it was entirely black (filters should be white and clean). We ended up throwing away the boys' bathing suits because two washes didn't get rid of the smell. Julee was notified by phone and email. Both to which she became combative and later blamed us for all of the problems we listed. We have pictures, but she still places the blame on us and insists on holding our deposit. Be very cautious of Lonesome Paws management and Julee King! If there were more space for a review, then we would have more details. We recommend the property, but not at the cost of doing business with her. Zero stars would be given.

Family reunion

Jake’s Hideaway is a beautiful, comfortable, well maintained, clean, and quiet place. However, the communication between the property manager and the resort staff is seriously lacking. One gate guard actually told my daughter that they, meaning Coosawatee staff, dislike VRBO rentals. Also, the Host Fee of $355 effectively doubled our cost. We won’t return.

Girls Trip Weekend

The property was perfect for our group of 9. We could have accommodated at least 3 more easily. The Cabin was nicely decorated and fully stocked with all we needed. It was conveniently located near the square and all the main shopping and restaurants. The population of deer was fun to see. We had a great time and would definitely go back..

Peaceful Stay

The property is in a gated community. You have to check in with security every time you enter the community. However the house was clean and nicely decorated. The house had adequate amenities but PLEASE bring your own bath towels, wash cloths, kitchen towels, trash bags, bath tissue and paper towel. The kitchen towels and bath towels provided were old and faded. The house had a hot tub, pool table and tons of games. My family enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and sitting on the porch and patio watching the deers (there were hundreds). We also enjoyed Carter’s Lake (the overlook at the dam is breathtaking). There is not much to do in the Ellijay in terms of things to do. It was refreshing to get away from the city and enjoy the peace and quiet in the mountains.

Nice but Noisy with some issues

The location was great and it had plenty of room for everyone. The place does need a deep clean. There was also dog hair all over the rugs. We slept downstairs in the biggest bedroom since we had a baby but every movement upstairs or even on the stairs was so loud in the rooms. It was difficult getting our daughter to sleep when anyone was upstairs moving around, pulling a chair out to sit, etc. We had seven adults, 2 kids, and 1 baby. We found out that if you are running the dishwasher or washing machine, you can't shower. There was no water pressure downstairs so we would have to wait for either one to finish a cycle before someone could shower which was inconvenient when you had so many people. We did love the hot tub and the abundant deer.
