Nestled among the rolling hills of Ellijay, Georgia, Peace On The Porch invites you to leave busy schedules behind and settle into the slower rhythm of the North Georgia Mountains. Here, mornings begin with coffee on the covered porch as birdsong replaces alarm clocks, afternoons are spent exploring scenic hiking trails, local wineries, apple orchards, and the charming shops of downtown Ellijay, and evenings end gathered around the outdoor fireplace beneath a sky full of stars.

Designed for couples, small families, and friends traveling together, this two-bedroom retreat makes it easy to reconnect with the people who matter most. Challenge each other to a game of ping pong or foosball, soak in the hot tub after a day of mountain adventures, grill dinner while your dog plays safely in the fenced yard, then settle into the outdoor living room where conversations linger long after the fire has faded to glowing embers.

Whether you're discovering Ellijay for the first time or returning to one of North Georgia's favorite mountain towns, Peace On The Porch offers the kind of getaway that reminds you how refreshing it feels to simply slow down.

Living Area

The living room welcomes everyone into one comfortable gathering space beneath soaring vaulted ceilings and warm wood finishes. Sink into the leather furnishings with your favorite movie playing on the 55-inch television, curl up with a good book while sunlight pours through the windows, or simply enjoy the quiet moments that seem easier to find in the mountains. The open layout keeps everyone connected, whether someone is preparing dinner, setting the table, or stretching out after a day of hiking.

Kitchen & Dining

The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, generous workspace, and everything needed to prepare anything from a leisurely breakfast to a family dinner after a day outdoors. The breakfast bar naturally becomes a place for morning conversations over coffee, while the dining table invites everyone to gather for shared meals, card games, or planning tomorrow's adventures through the North Georgia Mountains.

Game Room

Friendly competition has a way of bringing people together, and the game room was created with exactly that in mind. Challenge each other to foosball or ping pong, see who can claim bragging rights at darts or cornhole, or settle into the seating area to watch the big game on the 55-inch television. Whether you're celebrating a win or laughing over an epic miss, this space quickly becomes one of everyone's favorite places to spend time together.

Primary Bedroom & Bathroom

When the day winds down, the primary suite offers a peaceful place to recharge. Stretch out in the king-size bed with your favorite show before drifting off to sleep, then ease into the morning with a long shower or an unhurried soak in the oversized tub. It's a private retreat that encourages you to slow your pace long after you've unpacked. The ensuite bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower and a soaking tub, making it easy to begin and end each day feeling refreshed.

Secondary Bedroom & Bathroom

The guest bedroom offers a comfortable queen-size bed and television, creating a welcoming retreat for another couple or additional guests. Just steps away, the shared full bathroom with a tub and shower combination provides convenience for everyone, giving each guest their own comfortable space to unwind after a day spent exploring the mountains.

Outdoor Amenities

The porch isn't simply another outdoor space—it's where this cabin truly comes to life.

Gather around the stone fireplace as cool mountain evenings settle in, stream your favorite show on the outdoor television, or linger around the dining table long after dinner is finished. Fire up the gas grill for an easy meal before slipping into the hot tub beneath a canopy of stars. If your four-legged companion joins the trip, the fenced yard offers a safe place to roam while everyone enjoys the fresh mountain air. With paved roads leading all the way to the driveway, arriving at Peace On The Porch is simple and stress-free in every season.

Things to Do Near Peace On The Porch

One of the best parts of staying in Ellijay is that you can spend your days as active—or as relaxed—as you choose. Venture into downtown Ellijay to browse locally owned boutiques, antique shops, art galleries, and inviting restaurants before stopping at one of the area's craft breweries or wineries for an afternoon tasting.

If you're visiting in the fall, Ellijay's celebrated apple orchards are a destination all their own, offering fresh-picked apples, homemade cider, baked treats, and family-friendly fun. Throughout the year, nearby hiking trails lead to cascading waterfalls, scenic overlooks, and peaceful forest paths that showcase the natural beauty of the North Georgia Mountains.

Adventure seekers can kayak or tube the Cartecay River, cast a line in one of the region's rivers and lakes, or enjoy a scenic drive through the mountains. Just a short drive away, downtown Blue Ridge offers even more shopping, dining, and entertainment, including the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, which winds alongside the Toccoa River through some of North Georgia's most spectacular scenery.

Whether your ideal getaway is filled with outdoor adventure, discovering local wineries, exploring charming mountain towns, or simply returning to the porch for another quiet evening by the fire, Peace On The Porch places you close to everything that makes Ellijay one of North Georgia's most loved destinations.
