About this property

Beautiful mountain Cabin with Slide, Game Room, Hot Tub, Resort Amenities

Beautiful mountian cabin nestled in the woods of the Coosawatee River Resort. Enjoy a deck slide, hot tub, fire pit, game room and deer watching from the deck. Sleep comfortably for up to 8 guests, 3 full bathrooms & a kitchen equipped with all cooking needs! Community amenities- 3 pools, arcade, fitness center, tennis, basketball, pickleball, putt putt, riverside parks & playgrounds. We’re located in the heart of Ellijay and 25 min to Blue Ridge. Designed with families, couples & friends getaways in mind. Looking for that cozy cuddle-up cabin in the woods with all the comforts of home? This is the mountain escape you've been looking for! We affectionately call it the ‘Off Duty Deer Cabin’ because the deer are plentiful and the rest & relaxation are easy to come by after a fun-filled day exploring the beautiful Blue Ridge area.

The cabin has 2BR/3BA + loft that sleeps 8 guests. We have a King bedroom upstairs with an en-suite bathroom with shower and tub. The main level has a Queen bed and bathroom with a bath tub and shower. In the upstairs open loft there are two single beds and in the basement there is Sleeper Sofa and bathroom with walk-in shower. A Pack-n-Play is available for use too.

The cozy main living room is spacious with a comfy leather sectional, smart tv, gas fire place, board games, puzzles & books. You’ll feel like you’re amongst the trees with a beautiful view of the surrounding woods.

Our Game room is located in the terrace level basement that includes a ping pong table, old-school arcade game, darts, dual basketball hoops, ring toss, smart tv, electric fireplace and sleeper sofa. It’s so much fun for everyone!

The upper deck has a gorgeous wooded view including patio seating, rocking chairs, and a ring toss game. It makes the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or wine from one of the many local vineyards.

A Porch swing is located under the deck which makes for great deer watching and taking in the fresh mountain air.

Backyard has a Fire Pit with seating for eight and a seven person Hot Tub with a Peacful wooded view!

Kitchen is well equipped with drinkware, flatware and cooking essentials, pots and pans, baking sheets, Crock-Pot, blender French press & drip coffee maker. Charcoal grill and utensils also available.

Dining room table has seating for 6-8 and the Breakfast bar has 3 comfy barstools.

4 Smart TVs available with Roku streaming capabilities in the each bedroom, living room and basement game room.

Free fiber optic WIFI available up to 100mbps. Fast and reliable!

Full size washer and dryer is located in the basement available.

We’re located in the beautiful Coosawattee River Resort that offers access to a year-round indoor heated pool, kiddie pool, 2 outdoor pools seasonally, arcade room, tennis, basketball and pickle ball courts with provided equipment, putt putt, and picnic areas, playground, walking trails and best of all the Coosawatee River all within driving distance from the cabin. Guests bring your own water gear to enjoy access to the Coosawattee River.

A catch and release pond in the community is a 10 minute drive away so we keep two poles and tackle for you to use.

There is parking for up to 4 vehicles under the carport and driveway. It’s all paved roads to get to our cabin.

And one of the best parts is the beautiful nature that surrounds us including the deer that roam freely around the property. We’re not called the ‘Off Duty Deer’ for nothing.

Come, the mountains are calling.

Wonderful relaxing trip!
This property was fantastic, and perfect for our family trip! Everything was perfect from start to finish, and a lot of details were used to show you everything you need to know about the cabin. We loved the deer sightings, and fed them regularly. We highly recommend this cabin to others looking for a relaxing getaway!

Lots of space!
My family had a blast at this large cabin in the woods. The community amenities were a nice perk. There was plenty of room for our five kids ages 5-14 to spread out and not annoy each other too much! Everything was clean and comfortable. We ran into one snafu when the Roku remote did not work. The owners had one delivered to us the very next day and included some treats for our inconvenience. All in all it was a great trip at an awesome place.

Cute and clean mountain house!
We had a great stay! It was SO clean and there were many fun amenities. We used the indoor pool at the rec center (bring your own towels!), the hot tub, and the little slide off the porch! There are truly so many deer and our kids loved watching them! There was an issue with the hot tub not heating but the owner was very prompt with addressing the issue. We didn’t realize that the twin beds were a loft and not a true bedroom like it says on the listing title but further down it does state that it’s a loft just as FYI for those needing a true third bedroom. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again!

Just What We Needed
We enjoyed out stay with our kids and parents for fall break. This cabin fulfilled all of our needs and then some. Our 2 kids loved the game room, our parents loved the main floor bedroom, and all of our needs were met. We absolutely loved getting visits from the deer! Hosts even provided some deer corn. A possible suggestion for a cozier stay would be lamps in the living room for softer lighting. Other than that, no complaints! Would recommend to others.

Super cute cabin
The cabin is great for families. Very spacious and roomy. They have thought of everything to accommodate. The kitchen had a lot of helpful utensils as we had Thanksgiving dinner there. It was perfect. The game room was very entertaining for our girls. They loved the ping pong table and dart board. The fire pit was awesome for cooking S'mores and hot dogs. We loved watching the deer. They are everywhere. We actually bought more deer corn to feed them. Overall, I would definitely stay again. The hosts were great communicators as well! A+ stay!

About the host

Hi, We're Micaela and Joey.

Why they chose this property

We bought a cabin tucked away in the woods in the mountains with the dream of sharing our sweet spot with other adventure loving families. When we're at the cabin we're 'off-duty'

What makes this property unique

The Off Duty Deer is open with a balance of rustic and modern cabin. You'll feel like you're in a tree house with the soaring pines and hardwoods all around. Seeing lots of deer all over the property never gets old.
