5 STARS Great Place! Very Beautiful

5 STARS Perfect spot for romantic get away!!! Loved listening to the river and the fire pit! Date of arrival - September 28, 2023

5 STARS Great house/lodge for a long Fall weekend getaway. The place was perfect for my group of 7 (three adults and 4 college kids). The place had everything we needed - fully stocked kitchen for meals, hot tub, fire pit for smores and plenty of outdoor space. Lots of deer in the mornings and evenings so Buck Watch Lodge lived up to its name! Nice sleeping and bathroom arrangements with a full bath and bedroom on every level. Convenient location for outdoor activities in and around Ellijay. The resort itself had a nice dog park and other amenities like tennis/pickle ball court and fishing areas. The river has with tubing access in the warmer months. The staff was super friendly and responsive. I called/communicated about the gas grill and a new one tank was delivered within 20 minutes. Will definitely keep the place as options for future getaways.

5 STARS Beautiful cabin! Everything felt brand new, uber clean and comfortable! Loved the deer that visited each day and the deer food was a nice touch and much appreciated. Best stocked cabin I have rented in a while and you can feel the love the owner has for the home by how thoughtfully it is prepared for guests. Everything organized and labeled well, kitchen well stocked. Arranged late checkout before arrival seamlessly - much appreciated! FYI Nice Keurig, no drip pot/french press available. The neighborhood is large so follow directions provided, not GPS. I recommend 4 wheel drive due to the steep driveway. River access is available and is absolutely stunning, but you will need a vehicle to get to and from with gear. Great fall getaway for my family - thank you!

5 STAR Valerie was great! Phenomenal stay. Highly Recommended. Over and Above to ensure we were all taken care of.

5 STARS This was our 2nd time staying in this cabin. We love it and plan to return as often as possible with friends. It is perfect for a couples getaway. The cabin is well stocked. The peacefulness of a campfire by the river is an extra perk.

5 STARS Second year in a row staying here for our anniversary! Nice quiet place and not hard to get anywhere. Will definitely be returning. Date of arrival - September 15, 2023

5 STARS We only had a weekend to get away, and this place was perfect. Wonderful home and a great place to relax and unwind, (a much needed break). The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The host is friendly, communicative, and responsive. We will definitely visit again, hopefully, for a longer stay.

5 STARS This is ny far, one of the best places to stay in Ellijay, a real mix of rustic and luxury. To me, it felt like a slice of heaven or "Valhalla." The house felt brand new was spotless and situated at the top of a hill. So, you have a view forest and partial views of the river in the day time. Though you can hear the rumbling of the river at all times, regardless of which balcony you are on. From the master balcony, you can reach out and touch the towering oak trees. it also makes a good place to camp out, and we slept out there a couple of nights. finally, the wildlife around the cabin was amazing. you will be visited by no less than 5 deer in the mornings and in the evenings. The deer are friendly and come right up to you to eat corn that the host provides. My family and I will definitely be coming back

The hostess was super helpful too!

5 STARS We had a great time at Buck Watch Lodge. The cabin was big enough to accommodate all 9 of us! We enjoyed the amenities at the cabin as well as the amenities in the resort too. We seen so many deer too! The hostess was super helpful too! Date of arrival - September 1, 2023

5 STAR It was a great place, with plenty of room. It was clean, spacious and comfortable. They also left deer food so you can feed the deer that come around. We had no issues with checking in or out. I would definitely recommend! Date of arrival - September 2, 2023

4 STARS Cozy and clean... kids loved the fire pit, jacuzzi and the open space. The deers came out midday and evening, right on the property. Lots of deers in the whole community. The resort amenities were great...cool down after hot day of hiking.

5 STARS Great place to stay and explore North Georgia!

5 STARS The cabin was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The river sounds were very relaxing and made this an incredible vacation Date of arrival - July 22, 2023

5 STARS This cabin is wonderful for a large crowd. We had kids ranging in ages from 3 to 13 so letting them go down to the playroom to hangout was peaceful for the adults up stairs. The surroundings were beautiful. There were a couple of hiccups at no fault of the hostess and she was quick to assist. I would recommend this place to anyone who has a large group.

Family has a great time, cabin didnt look like it was cleaned but we can in the same afternoon as the prior guest left. Maybe the cleaning crew gave it a quick clean. Wasnt crazy dirty just a few minor issues. Great location, beautiful river side, overall a great vacation. Date of arrival - July 22, 2023

4 STARS Great peaceful private location on the river which is good for tubing and wading. Bring your water shoes, rocks are painful on feet if you plan to go in. Good current so floating down is easy. Cannot swim back. Shallow enough to walk back though. Place had everything we needed and was clean. Very steep roads throughout the community. Loved the access to pools, putt-putt, and tenis courts. Have to use your car to get around. Property management is very responsive! Date of arrival - July 26, 2023

4 STARS It was peaceful and beautiful inside. Driveway needs updating two vehicles of our group got stuck leaving out. 2nd floor shower did not work but baths are always good. Some dishes werent cleaned so we washed the ones we needed. Hard to fine even with directions on the narrow roads. It is a nice place to stay in once they get the driveway done.

5 STAR What a great place to stay! The house was cozy and comfortable and set up for all of our needs. The location was only 6 miles from Ellijay where we visited a beautiful winery and enjoyed downtown. We fished in the river during the day then sat around the firepit at night. The outdoor lighting illuminated the river and deck which made it easy to stay outside well after dark. We will definitely go back. Date of arrival - August 4, 2023

5 STARS Great cabin with lots of space for large family. We loved the outdoor deck and seating. Fun country decor. Date of arrival - July 29, 2023
