I would recommend a day at the pool followed by a round of mini golf in the early evening! You can pre purchase your passes ahead of time!

Great spot in Ellijay amidst the Mountains
Close to all necessities, yet far enough away to be private. Gated community, which wasn't an issue. Parking for 3 vehicles, which was perfect. Minor issue with gas fireplace was promptly taken care of. Wifi was excellent, and was well set up with master on one side of the main areas, 2 bedrooms with shared bath on other side. Lovely screened in back porch, and front porch with rockers. We didn't get a chance to use the firepit. Thank you for sharing this home with us!

Perfect for traveling with our pup!
Our family (parents, teen & grandma) stayed at the Golden Retreat for the weekend while visiting friends at the Coosawatee Resort area. The place was perfect! It’s right in front of the neighborhood with easy access. All the pet-friendly items our pup could ask for where there! Including a kennel, doggie bowls, doggie bags, leash hangers, & etc. The owners were very communicative and we greatly enjoyed our stay!
