We loved our stay. Our grandchildren age 5-10 loved the creek. The property is very well maintained inside and out. We have stayed in cabins in the Smoky Mountains several times and the Legends ‘ Cabin in Blue Ridge is definitely the nicest/impressive cabin we have ever stayed in. We would love to return next year.

This was a trip we will always remember! We used this location to join two families.. we had kids from 4 months to 28 years old staying at The Legend! An amazing trip with PLENTY to do for everyone. The kids loved the creek and playing with Lucy and Jett, the dogs that live nearby. So many wonderful memories in a beautiful setting. Unforgettable!

The Legend Cabin was the perfect property to make our cousins trip epic. This property is beyond picturesque and delivers everything you would want in a mountain setting – views, creek, wildlife, and the neighbors were wonderful. You quite literally don’t even need to leave the house; it has something for everyone and more than enough space for a large group. Very clean upon arrival and a well-stocked kitchen. The theater room & game room were a huge hit. We would definitely come back again! Best rental in Ellijay, GA

Gorgeous property

My family had the best stay at this home. The location was so perfect—we enjoyed hiking, fishing, and tubing without ever having to go anywhere else. All of my kids are lobbying for a recreation of the amazing theater room in our house. We cooked in the nice kitchen, played games, and slept really well. The location was so beautiful, we had family pictures taken by the creek.

A Dream Nestled in the Mountains

This beautiful home and the property it sits on was perfect for our family and friends. The views from the home were breathtaking from the mornings and into the evenings. All the amenities provided a very comfortable stay. The teens couldn’t get enough of the pool table, ping pong and pinball machine to name a few.

Perfect place to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary

The perfect place to gather our family for our 50th wedding anniversary celebration. I brought my wife and she had no clue where we were going and did not know the family would be there to surprise her when she walked in. Lots to do and enjoy with the family with plenty of indoor recreation for the grandkids even in the rain.

Annual family Christmas retreat

This was a great cabin for my family, loved the games for the kids and the kitchen was great. I was tickled to see the Christmas tree was still up, perfect for our retreat et celebration. What fun to watch movies and eat fresh baked cookies in the home theater. Love the location, we visited several places in Ellijay and Blue Ridge, the scenic train ride was fun too.

Best rental ever!

We totally enjoyed our stay at Legend! We had a large crew (12) and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. 2 porches, beautiful fireplaces (perfect for S’mores) wonderful creek for wading with the kids. Lovely view. Even horses to visit! Well situated for easy access to Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Would totally recommend!

Perfect for a Couples trip!

Our group comprised of 6 couples and this property was PERFECT for that. We enjoyed walking and enjoying the scenery, we enjoyed cooking in the large kitchen, and had wonderful discussions on the outside patio. The owners were super responsive to our needs and got our issues taken care of timely. The sound of the creek is just lovely! It served as a great backdrop to our hangouts. Thank you!

Relaxed family gathering

Beautiful property, uniquely situated next to a mountain stream that was great for wading and fishing. Close proximity to popular hikes. Home had amenities that made our 4-day stay with 4 small children a breeze. From the game room, to the outdoor fireplace for smores, to the hot tub (w/o the hot) for "dipping." Special treats were the flock of geese who called this home and the sweet horse and donkey on the property who kept the kids enthralled.

Amazing relaxed stay!

We had an amazing time staying at this property. The cabin is huge and has all the amenities vacationers would long for. The location is beautifully maintained and the hosts are very friendly. Guest services were very prompt in addressing any questions we had. One request is to have a later checkout time. 10am is too early to check out. However, I must say guest services were very gracious in extending the checkout time until 12.
Beautiful stream close to the cabin.
