Deer Watch Retreat

Situated amongst the North Georgia Mountains, a timeless cabin awaits your arrival - perfect for families or groups of friends. Nestled in the Ellijay’s Coosawattee River Resort, a quiet gated community surrounded by the woods, this 3-bedroom cabin provides a private paradise. Guests will enjoy the secluded hot tub deck where you can leisurely unwind in the evenings. Steps away, a firepit is situated for cozying up under the stars while smores cook over the flames. The protected deer in the area will come up and eat snacks from your hand. You’re sure to make the most of the natural beauty all around, but inside offers recreation options just as enchanting. Make use of the downstairs movie room and pool table for some family-friendly entertainment and fun. Then, head upstairs to the loft where you can challenge your friends to a game of foosball. Take the competition to the digital world with the loft’s smart tv and gaming console, or simply relax with a favorite movie playing.

Back on the home’s main level, you have everything you need for the perfect getaway. Share quality time hanging out in the living room with gas fireplace, cook up delicious meals in the fully equipped kitchen, and dine at the table set for 6. Morning coffee and evening drinks alike can be enjoyed on the home’s balcony, complete with seating, grill, and tree-filled views. From here you can also watch the deer roam free.
