Description


Welcome to Skyview Retreat, a luxurious log home surrounded by six private acres of forests and breathtaking views. Wake up to mountain sunrises and savor your coffee on the wraparound balcony as you admire the beautiful scenery. 
Spend your days hiking scenic trails just steps from your door, soaking in the hot tub jets, or gathering around the fire pit under the stars. With cozy interiors, an entertaining game room, and dog-friendly touches, this 3-bedroom retreat offers upscale amenities for a serene escape.

Nestled in the heart of the Appalachian foothills, Ellijay, Georgia, is a serene destination with an excellent blend of outdoor adventure, rustic charm, and natural beauty. Known as Georgia’s apple capital, this quaint mountain town is just 15 minutes from numerous apple orchards, like Mercier Orchards, and farms where you can pick fresh fruit, sample cider, or enjoy farm-to-table dining. Ellijay also has a burgeoning wine scene, with several award-winning vineyards and wineries like Ott Vineyards offering tastings with stunning mountain backdrops.

The nearby Benton MacKaye Trail is a popular hiking trail that allows enthusiasts to explore thick forests and waterfalls, including Long Creek Falls, which is just a short trek from the trail. Amicalola Falls, the tallest waterfall in Georgia, is also within easy reach.


Each bedroom is designed for total relaxation. The primary suite on the lower level features a deluxe king bed, private deck access, and an ensuite bathroom with a jetted tub and walk-in shower. On the main floor, a queen bedroom offers sweeping mountain vistas and easy access to a shared bathroom. Upstairs, another queen bedroom boasts a private balcony, a convenient ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, and Adirondack chairs for morning coffee or evening drinks.

Our outdoor living spaces are nothing short of spectacular. The wraparound balcony is perfect for lounging the day away in cozy rocking chairs. Fire up the BBQ grill for evening cookouts with loved ones, and enjoy at the outdoor dining table. A bubbling hot tub waits on the vast deck downstairs, while the fire pit provides a magical spot to gather under the stars and tell stories. Your furry friends will feel right at home with dog beds, bowls, and ample space to explore.

The VIEW AMAZING!!! I reserved this cabin for the view and it did not disappoint. The cabin and amenities also did not disappoint. Size, amenities, cleanliness and solitude, all met expectations. Everyone speaks of the road to paradise, and rightfully so. My wife and I had an unexpected encounter Monday evening shortly after finishing grilling. I looked out the door and there were 4 cute cubs and 1 big Mama Bear. So don't ask yourself if bears are around, as they are definitely there. So be on the look out but enjoy as well.

Skyview Retreat was the perfect getaway for me and my family! The views from the deck were incredible! We made good use of the grill and firepit, and enjoyed a good soak in the hot tub with a glass of wine each night. The location was ideal, plenty of hiking trails nearby and just a short drive from downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge.

This is a great gathering cabin! Our family came from all over and spent a wonderful week at this super secluded, roomy, well-appointed cabin. We had a ball in Ellijaygoing to wineries, breweries, and apple orchards (fried pies!) But our favorite pastime was hanging out togetherdrinking our morning coffees and sharing our evening cocktails on the spacious decks with incredible views for miles.

I visited with friends and loved the cabin Skyview Retreat. As the name implies, the view is spectacular, and it is a real retreat. The house is comfortable, with plenty of large decks outside. Inside are sofas and sitting areas to choose for a group chat or to find your own quiet space. The firepit with Adirondack chairs is a lovely spot for the evenings where you can either build a fire or listen to tree frogs. For outings, Ellijay and Blue Ridge have outfitters who could advise on nearby hiking or river experiences. Enjoy!

Skyview Retreat is amazing! I have stayed at many cabins in North Georgia but this one hands down has the best view I've seen. The layout of the cabin is ideal for groups. Since there is a bedroom on each floor, each guest has their own privacy and bathroom. The patio is huge and is a great place to relax and enjoy the incredible view. The fire pit and hot tub make for great evening activities. Additionally, the cabin is only a 15-20 minute drive from stores and restaurants in Ellijay if you want to pick up groceries or go out to dinner. Overall, this cabin is ideal for a mountain getaway and I will definitely be back!
