About this property

Cute Creekfront, rustic, hot tub, pet friendly-fenced yard, screened porch

Song of the south is an adorable, rustic oasis on Turkey Creek (not a fishing creek). With end of the road PRIVACY, heavely wooded and a firepit area right by the water. Song of the South is a Sliding Rock Cabin that offers a screened porch, patio and deck with a large hot tub, Gas Grill, creekside firepit and FENCED yard off of the screened porch. You may want to laze away the day in the hammock, roast s'mores in the creekside firepit, maybe hike the Ellijay and Blue Ridge's mountainous trails, then in the evening soak in the large hot tub, or cuddle up next to the fireplace and watch an old movie on your large screen SmartTV, maybe sleep in late on the King Size bed in the loft.
Main floor has one queen-size bed, a bath with shower and tub combination. Upstairs, the open loft has a king-size bed and Juliette balcony. The kitchen offers solid surface counter tops and new stainless-steel appliances. Living room furniture is leather and therefore No cats please. PLEASE NOTE CANCELLATION POLICY BELOW.

Birthday getaway

My wife 2 dogs and myself had a great time at the cabin in the mountains. The creek in the back was awesome to sit by while enjoying a fire. I will definitely return in the future.

Cabin of Convenience

Description of the cabin is accurate but the pictures are deceiving. All of the outdoor spaces and outdoor furniture need TLC. Photographer must have used a spotlight to take the inside pics because the cabin is incredibly dark. I had to use a flashlight to see inside my suitcase. Convenient to stores and restaurants Comfortable beds Clean hot tub Decent rental overall, but would not book this one again.

Beautiful and Relaxing

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay. Comfortable beds. The kitchen was adequately stocked. I loved that the creek was so close that you can hear it to put you to sleep at night. Very private. The roads were easy to access. I would have liked brighter light bulbs in the cabin because it was hard to see inside. Make sure you go to the lockbox on the front door porch not on the side of the house! We enjoyed our stay and will be back! Thanks you!

Great Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was exactly what we wanted. Quiet, clean, no distractions. Kind of hard to find but that's what you want in a secluded cabin in the woods. Fortunately the directions provided were excellent.The only improvement I could make would be to screen in the hot-tub. We didn't have time to use it, but if it was screened it might have tempted us more.Great for a couple, or two couples that are very close.

Great couples retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Quiet, clean, peaceful cabin and setting. Our two Labrador retrievers, Sunshine and Sally, really enjoyed the clear cold mountain creek in the backyard. Easy to find, good roads with very little traffic, excellent location. Tried fishing with no luck, but didn’t expect much, even though it could support trout. Made visits to numerous vineyards and Reese’s Cider House, all within short driving distance.

Cozy cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were pleased with our stay at Song of the South. There were a few things that could have made it better. The lighting in the kitchen was still not good. We struggled trying to prepare meals. It would help if you could remove the TV cabin and put something smaller there or hang it on the wall. It would have been nice to have the screen porch clean from spider webs and leaves. Same for all around the outside of the house. I had to take the broom and sweep as much as I could. I would have brought my leaf blower if I had known. I understand you are in a low terrine that doesn't help. Otherwise we enjoyed the firepit area and hot tub.

A slice of heaven

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Song of the South was exactly what my husband and I needed. Everything was as described and the creek in the back is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. Sliding Rock is truly dog friendly as we were able to bring our four dogs who loved the fenced yard and screened in patio. The stairs even had backing to the steps preventing our smaller dogs from falling had they slipped between steps. We all had the most restful nights sleep with the sound of the creek flowing in the background. We definitely plan on returning to Ellijay in the near future and Sliding Rock will be our first choice for cabin rentals.
