This was one of the best places I have ever stayed at. It was very warm and inviting, spotless, and had all the amenities of home. Wish we could have stayed longer. Look forward to returning one day for another stay!!
Super easy check in and directions to the property. Cabin was spacious and beautifully finished. Deer Haven lived up its name as we watched a large group make its way down to the lake in the evening.

The cabin exceeded our expectations. Clean, peaceful and beautiful location. We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable time. It was time we needed to just relax and get away.

Our family enjoyed relaxing and slowing down here. Ample parking was nice compared to others we saw. The cabin was as nice and comfortable as could be. About 100 yards into woods down hill is special, featuring natural creeks and wildlife.

My husband, son, DIL and granddaughter stayed for several days and had a wonderful time! The weather was perfect the whole time! Close enough to town to get what’s needed and far enough out to have peace and serenity!

Very nice property. Very quiet and peaceful. All of the amenities were very good. We loved that each of our teenagers had their own bed and bathroom, and we did as well.

We had an amazing stay at Deer Haven! The cabin was spotless! Rooms were all comfortable. Loved the garden tub in the master bath! We had our coffee on the deck outside the master bedroom every morning. Got to see lots of deer as well. We will definitely be back! Thanks for the peaceful and relaxing stay!

Our week long stay was spent relaxing, watching deer (15 at one time), and meeting great people in Ellijay. The cabin was spacious and better than advertised. The drive up and down was not a challenge. It was steep; however, at no time did I feel concerned while driving.The trash drop off was easily accessible, and we will be coming back!
