Directly on Big Creek/Hot Tub/Game Room/Outdoor Living Space/ Remote/True Cabin

Have you ever been longing for a place that is inviting, remote and carefree? Castaway is the ideal retreat situated alongside a rushing creek. The adventure begins as you cross over a covered bridge. The perfect place to castaway all your cares and enjoy all that nature has to offer. Enjoy listening to the creek as you relax with a cocktail on the screened-in porch, soaking in our Hot Tub or toasting marshmallows at the fire pit just feet away from the creek. Experience the chorus of frogs, crickets and birds at dusk. You won't forget how beautiful that is. What a treat!

We can't say enough about this amazing property. The host Martha was so welcoming, accommodating and always ready to help. The property is stunning, clean and full of activities (you never have to leave). The creek located at the back of the property is stocked with gorgeous rainbow trout (catch and release) and provides a natural soundtrack for relaxation. If you are looking for the perfect compound for your wilderness getaway...look no further!!! Highly recommend!

Much needed Grammy & PawPaw time
Perfect place for a quiet and peaceful gathering. Amenities galore. Super clean and comfortable. The grands loved throwing rocks in the stream, catching and releasing tadpoles, playing with the many creek toys and other outdoor games available. S’mores at the amazing fire pit and a dip in the hot tub closed out the fun filled days. The birthday boy said “this was the best birthday ever!” Martha is a wonderfully helpful and kind host. She even had a gift and birthday cookie cake for my grandson! We will definitely return one day!

There is nothing negative I can say about the property. It is remote and absolutely beautiful! We had the best time, the creek was the highlight for our family. The game room is perfect and the bedroom above it is very comfortable. Our group consisted of teenagers to adults and everyone was very pleased. We don’t have one complaint about this place. Martha was an amazing host and quick to respond. The donuts left upon check in were amazing. We will be staying here again!

Amazing Family Vacation on the Big Creek!!
We chose this property for our mom’s 80th birthday celebration because she loves to trout fish and this offered a very gentle walk to the waters edge and had only two steps into the main level featuring full bedrooms and bath on main. The host, Martha, was an absolute pleasure to work with and left no stone unturned when it came to both decorating and provisioning the property. Everything was perfect and we’ll definitely return!!

Fantastic Getaway
My family spent three nights here. It is a wonderful property with great access to a creek right in the backyard! The property is well tended and the cleanest rental we’ve stayed at. The beds and linens were extremely comfortable. Kitchen appliances and dishes were in pristine condition, which really helped you feel at home. The owner, Martha, is available if you have any questions, and she even greeted us with warm fresh banana bread after our first night. The kids were never bored! There were several family board games, outside games such as foosball and corn hole, and a hot tub! I enjoyed reading a book on a wooden swing down by the creek. We spent each afternoon by the fire pit, enjoying s’mores. It was secluded, yet accessible (25 minutes to Blue Ridge). We look forward to coming back for a longer stay!

AMAZING GETAWAY!!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our short visit to Castaway . I am a neat freak and was excited to see that the owner takes pride in cleanliness and organization. At first concerned that we were far from stores but it turned out to make for some great quality time with family. Only ate out once. Wonderful kitchen to prepare meals. So many amenities. Lovely view and sound of rushing waters from Big Creek. You score a 5 with us. Thanks again for a wonderful experience.

If you’re looking for a 5 star experience in the beautiful north Georgia mountains, then you need not look any further! Clean, fully equipped, cabin and guest house situated on a softly rolling creek with covered bridge entrance - you will feel as though you have entered a storybook setting. You will lack for nothing and the property host is amazing!

Just Right
It was just right! My family of four plus both sets of parents had a great time. Close enough to Ellijay and Blue Ridge to visit both. Cabin was stocked with plenty to do for us and kids (shuffle board tournament became a big hit) along with the fire pit. Sitting listening to the creek was definitely relaxing. Owner was great! Reached out to us before we got there and was very easy and good to work with and very accessible if needed. We all ageed we will be staying there again!!

Family is Everything
This year, we decided to have our family vacation in the mountains, Blue Ridge mountains. Oh did we get lucky. We had the most beautiful cabin, with the best hospitality. Our host/manager was thoughtful and caring. She made us feel right at home. Our cabin came equipped with absolutely everything a family would need. There were so many indoor/outdoor activities/games we only left the cabin to do grocery shopping. It gave us the opportunity to bond with our family especially our teen children. We came back home recharged, closer than ever and a bit nostalgic of our time spent at the cabin. It was absolutely everything my family needed. We are looking forward to our next stay at our home away from home.

Wonderful cabin and location
We have vacationed quite a bit in this area over the past 10 years. This cabin appealed to us based on the location on the creek and general proximity to both Ellijay and Blue Ridge. The cabin was as advertised and the reviews were accurate. Well appointed, plenty of room and Martha was very reachable and left us some treats. There is plenty of room for everyone and having a creek to cool off in was great. Dont hesitate to spend some quality family time here for sure.

Wedding weekend
We booked this cabin for the weekend as it was fairly close to my sons wedding venue, Summit Farm. It was everything advertised and more. Martha was so sweet and even left us a card and donuts for our stay. We had 8 adults and we had plenty of room. Our favorite part was the screened porch and the swing right by the creek to relax before the day got busy. The extra room in the game room area was very nice and have every one plenty of room and privacy. The cabin is as immaculate. We didn’t have time to use the hot tub, but plan to return soon to just relax and enjoy the cabin and creek.

Castaway was perfect in every way! It is peaceful and even more beautiful than the pictures convey. Our family ranged in age from 14 to 73 and each had a wonderful time enjoying all the activities from the creek to the hot tub! The game room was a big hit with our teens. The location is perfect! Martha is a gracious host and definitely goes the extra miles for her guests! Our family is looking forward to returning next year! Thank you, Martha!

Beautiful and perfectly appointed cabin
We loved the cabin, the beautiful property and the owner was super sweet and helpful. We had absolutely everything we could have needed to keep our young family entertained - our kids were completely in love and stayed occupied playing outside, catching tadpoles, picking blackberries, and playing in nature the whole trip! The creek access is absolutely ideal for young children - gradual entry, no steep bank or big rocks to navigate. The only note is that the wi-fi signal was not ample for us to do work or take work calls, so if that is on your agenda as it was ours for part of our stay, plan accordingly! The town of Blue Ridge is very cute, as was Ellijay. Both are about 30 mins away.

Amazing all around!
From the time we booked to the day we departed, everything was absolutely perfect at Cast Away! Martha went above and beyond keeping in touch with us. She was available for any questions we had about their property as well as questions about the area. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a kind note and a local, yummy treat. Martha checked in with us to see that we made it down safely and to see if we had any questions/concerns. Everything was perfect and exactly as described. It really is like a slice of heaven. The main cabin and game cabin are beautiful, cozy and super clean. We had fun bouncing from place to place playing games, watching movies and hanging out. The outdoor property is great too! It was so fun being right on the stream. We had fun fishing, splashing around, and hunting for salamanders and turtles. All of the outdoors toys and games were a very nice touch. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing after a walk/hike or just to hang out in. The best part was getting the opportunity to meet Martha and David. There was a little hiccup with the hot tub which they were on right away which resulted in us meeting them. They truly are the nicest couple. Our daughter was celebrating her 13th birthday while we were there and they surprised her with a cake to help her celebrate! So very sweet! We had an amazing stay and look forward to returning to Cast Away for more memories! Thank you Martha and David for everything!

Excellent Stay!
We had the most wonderful relaxing memorial weekend at this cabin! Martha was the absolute best host! She was in contact with us even before we arrived to be sure we had everything we needed and knew where to go. When we arrived, she had left us delicious apple cider donuts and a lovely welcome card. The cabin was maticulously clean and well stocked with all the essential cooking appliances. My wife was particularly impressed with the lack of cob webs and spiders around the outside of the house. Especially for the cabin being in the middle of the woods. They have definitely paid attention to this and clean not only the inside of the house, but the outside as well. We ventured into Blue Ridge a few times for dinner and activities, which was only a short 30 min drive. The roads too and from the cabin are winding, but not terrible. Because we have a truck we had to drive through the creek to get to cabin, but that made it even more fun! Highly recommend this property and host. We will definitely be staying here again if we are back in the area!

Beautiful and Spacious Cabin
The pictures do not do it justice. We all loved it. Myself, husband, his parents, my 14 year and my 27 year old and wife along with my 1 year old grandbaby. We had plenty of room, the water steps from the house was clear and cool. The guys loved fishing and we just all had a good time hanging out with each other. The old bridge that you can use to drive across to the property was a great background for pictures. The game room was like an extra cabin for my son and his family to sleep in. I can just go on and on. I would recommend anyone looking for a place to stay to choose here, you would not be disappointed. The owner Martha went above and beyond helping and making sure we had everything we needed. She even stopped by at check in to make sure we were able to get in the cabin early and stopped by at check out to make sure our stay was great. Thanks again Martha you are the best and sweetest person I have dealt with using VRBO. Lisa Dover and Family
