We absolutely loved the property. Loved canoeing on the pond and using the fire pit and hot tub. The house is great and had all you need including kitchen needs. The town square nwarby was welcoming. We will definitely visit again.
Had a GREAT time! Wish we could've afforded to stay longer! The owners answered any questions we had prior to and during the visit. The pool is on the smaller side but perfect for people like us who enjoy "just getting wet". Pond was beautiful. House was clean and stocked. All the dishes and cookware you could need, charcoal and propane grills. Linens provided as well. Life jackets in all shapes and sizes for the boats. Plenty of room inside to spread out and not be on top of each other. That climb to the "tower" room is not for the weak; you WILL get a workout! Followed by an amazing view!The only thing I wish I had known prior to our trip (which had NOTHING to do with the property), is the terrain to get to the cabin. The roads were smooth and maintined. But... We have an older vehicle which does fine for us usually, but on the steep inclines (hey, this IS the mountains, we should've known!), it really struggled. Going to the house, not so bad, its mostly "downs". But the "ups" coming out onto the roads had us sweating, wondering if we would make it in a mini van with 2 adults and 4 (older) teenagers weighing it down. I would DEFINITELY advise renting an all-wheel or 4-wheel drive vehicle if you dont trust your own to make it! Which is what we had to do and we parked our van at the Ingles in town.This place was just so nice for our crew to just get away to on our very FIRST big family vacation, and we would DEFINITELY all go again.
It was such a great getaway; we felt relaxed from the moment we arrived. The surroundings were so peaceful, making it easy to unwind and disconnect from everything. Honestly, the amenities exceeded our expectations and added to the overall enjoyment. We will definitely be back and recommend this place to anyone looking for a chill experience.
Absolutely beautiful, serine, everyone had something to do. The hot tub and game room was a huge hit! While the kitchen was well stocked with all sizes of pots and pans, dishes and glasses! We felt right at home
We had a great time. There was so much to do at the cabin. It was very private and even had a perfect bedroom for a teen wanting to get some space away from the adults. I would definitely stay there again.
The cabin, pool, lake, and game room were a hit for all ages of our family. Property management was great about communicating when issue arouse(previous tenant caused a trash backup due to NOT following instructions). Kids enjoyed fishing and kayaking pond each day and there was plant of space indoors as well. Only things to improve would be a couple small things, one of the guest room fans didnât work, the pots and pans are small for a cabin fitting large families and made cooking tedious, and instructions for the showers may be a benefit as no one in our family had ever seen a shower system like those in the house and took a while to figure out how to take one, larger tvs for living room and game room would be a plus.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and the pool was beautiful and clean!
We were able to relax and enjoy the property. The pond was very pretty and fun to take the kayak/canoe out to explore and fish. The mornings and evenings were very enjoyable and made for a beautiful, calm and peaceful atmosphere.
So, we booked the Frog Pond for the second year, assuming we would have the same experience as we had in 2022.
The house was great, lots of room. The AC worked fine. The pond was amazing. The "country internet" worked so-so. The hiking around the location was appreciated by our "foragers" who came back daily with bags of different mushrooms. Great meals, good kitchen. The hot tub was clean and enjoyable. So far, so good.
Thinking the kids would love the saline pool, even more, this year than last . . . we were sadly disappointed.
The pool was filthy when we arrived. "Supposedly" it is said to be cleaned once a week. I hope the house owners will review the service of their pool attendants. They did not show up during our stay. Each morning we had to use the net to get the frogs and all of the frog eggs out of the pool. On the first full day the kids caught a jar full of tadpoles, which they released in the pond. The last few mornings the saline pool was so filled with frog eggs that swimming was no longer an option, even after skimming the frog eggs out each morning. The water filtration system wasn't working. A text to the owners to get the pool cleaned and water circulating again got no reply. So, we enjoyed the pond and a day trip to Ellijay town.
Before booking, get some confirmation from the owners that the pool will be clean and in working order . . . IF you want to use the pool.
Summer 2022 was WONDERFUL. Summer 2023 was great . . . except for the pool.
it was a nice place with lots to do. Loved the pond and boats!!! Lots of room in the house! Pool table needs some tlc. kitchenđ was great...everything we needed.
Pool And hot tub were filthy. grass was not cut. Overall a great vacation! Love the area. Easy drive to cabin! But overcharged due to grass, pool, and hot tub! Not what we paid forđ„ or as advertised!!! Owners might try staying there under these conditions. I don't think they would be very happy!
Our family really enjoyed our stay at Frog Pond. There's so much space in the house and the whole property is very private. We especially enjoyed using the kayak and canoe on the pond. We can't wait to visit again!
The house and grounds are absolutely beautiful, the property manager was courteous and helpful (even in the late afternoon), and seclusion if the location was perfect for getting away with the family and having some good fun in the woods.
Absolutely loved it!
This was our 2nd visit we enjoyed the entire cabin. We were able to have all of our family there and do different acivities. We didn't leave the property for anything. This is definitely our home away from home even if it's just for a few days. Our hostess was the best especially when responding to my emails.
This house gave us exactly what we were looking for. The kids played in the pool all day and then spent the evenings in the basement gaming area. My wife and I enjoyed the peace and quiet of the screened in porch.
This can be the perfect vacation spot, with so much to do. But it does need to be up dated. Broken furniture, grill etc. You have the perfect pond to fish in. Swimming pool and hot tub. Plus they have pool table & ping pong table. But the pool table needs new cue sticks & ping pong paddles are coming apart.
