Notes from the host
Hills 'n Holler
Please...Show us respect... write to us BEFORE attempting to Book. We will respond... and ... CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER!
Lets make sure we are a good fit for each other. We will not complete any booking without a proper email discussion.
We require an "official" guest list with all names and ages, including daytime guests, and any pets visiting or staying.
We are proudly a true VRBO'er, the most important part being By Owner. That means we offer the attention to detail, cleanliness, and amenities that you would expect from owners who are intimately and directly involved with the care and management of their cabin. It also means we have another life! and are NOT on duty 24/7 (except for emergencies of course).
We are giving you our best, and we expect your best in return. We do not care to be treated like the Economy Inn. We hope you can tell the difference and treat us accordingly. We are not your best option for bargain hunters, but do provide one of the best values available for quality of your intimate mountain vacation experience.
Hills 'n Holler is our second vacation rental. HnH is located behind our first, rental called Wagon Wheel Ridge, which you can find here on VRBO at listing #161442. We invite you read our reviews at WWR to get an idea of the kind of experience we seek to give you.
The most consistent reaction we have from guests, family and friends is that Hills 'n Holler is equal to Wagon Wheel Ridge, and some prefer HnH because it is more spacious. They definitely have two different 'characters.' Both are always far more beautiful than expected to first-time visitors. Pictures don’t do them justice. Beautiful, private setting. Fully landscaped and decorated.
There is something for both him and her. She will appreciate the tasteful and well-appointed rooms. He will appreciate the Large screen TV and home theatre systems for watching the game. Both will appreciate the private, cozy, quiet, natural setting. You will simply enjoy! HnH is fun, relaxing, beautiful, serene, exciting, peaceful, private. It is close to nature, quaint, cozy, comforting. There is a warmth that is hard to put into words, that you cant see in pictures.
Hills 'n Holler is a little bit rustic, a little bit modern casual elegance. It is the darn near perfect cozy cabin tucked away in the hills. If you are looking for an extraordinary, peaceful, private and relaxing getaway, We'd love to have ya' drop by!
On vacation in the mountains…Its All About The HOT TUB and The View…The tub itself is a 6 seat Gulf Coast Spa LX5000 with lights, waterfall, and aromatherapy. And...drum roll please...we positioned the hot tub so you can enjoy the mountain view from the tub...you can truly soak it all in.
Do you want a getaway that sticks with you for weeks. A vacation experience you cant help but tell your family and friends about? This is the place. Right here. Enjoy a week or a weekend - grillin', chillin', hiking, biking, kayaking. Or just snuggle in watching your favorites - sports, movies, classic TV - or maybe some quiet time, catching up on some reading.
Upstairs we have a comfy-cozy Living Room, Master Bedroom and Dining Room all open to each other, with a tall vaulted ceiling. The overall effect is cozy spaciousness. The windows are trimmed in tree bark. We gave the vaulted wooden ceiling a soft buffed effect, and almost all of the furniture has been custom made for us. We have a see-thru wood-burning fireplace that opens to the living room and the kitchen
The Living Room has a wall full of large windows to give you a full time view. You can enjoy the game in sheer audio and visual pleasure on the Sony 46' HD LCD TV and 5.1 Sony Home Theatre System with in ceiling and in-wall Yamaha speakers & subwoofer.
We provide Dish Network Satellite TV reception, a DVD player upstairs, and a Sony PS3 downstairs.
The kitchen has a dual composite sink, antiqued and distressed cabinets and granite countertop. Whirlpool electric range and ceramic stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, and French door bottom freezer refrigerator, and various small appliances for your convenience.
We have a beautifully decorated king Master Bedroom and Bathroom with tub/shower and two sinks upstairs. Then we have a cozy and cute queen Bedroom downstairs with an equally cute full (shower-only) bathroom.
We have a doubledecker deck. Right outside the kitchen on the upper deck we have a stainless steel propane gas grill for quick and easy grillin'. Walk around the corner and you are outside the upstairs living room overlooking our holler. There are with plenty of tables & chairs to spread out, and two comfortable rocking chairs for relaxing with someone special. The Hot Tub is on the lower deck, along with more tables & chairs, and being lower, a closer view of the Holler!.
Outside, we have beautiful natural landscaping.. We also have an outdoor fire-pit. We supply the wood - you supply the common sense and don't set the woods on fire.
Details matter, and we have put extra attention in appointments and furnishings, from the linens to the wall decor. For all beds we use premium quality mattresses and high thread count sheets.
How do you get a mountain view - You gotta climb a hill. With over twenty years of rental guests coming and going on our hill, obviously this is not an issue for most folks. But for a few it is. Unlike so many of the privately owned roads out here in the country, we make sure ours is maintained regularly. Nevertheless, low-slung cars, overloaded/under-powered vehicles, and timid drivers are at a disadvantage driving any gravel hill. If you want to know more, please ask.
Hills 'n Holler is only about 12 miles from Ellijay in Gilmer County, Georgia, the Apple Capital of Georgia. Ellijay is home to the Apple Festival held two weekends in October. There are Apple Houses along the highways with fresh and canned produce, gifts, baked goods, and other treats. Ellijay has numerous antique shops, art galleries, and restaurants. Hills 'n Holler is also convenient to Amicalola Falls, Dawsonville, Dahlonega, and Blue Ridge, each with their own attractions. Go antiquing to your heart's content or ride the scenic railway in Blue Ridge. Visit the North Georgia Premium Outlet stores & the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame in Dawsonville. Pan for gold & shop antiques in Dahlonega. Yee Haw!
