Description
Welcome to The Goathouse, a 3-bedroom Ellijay cabin hosted by Georgia Cabins for YOU in the Walnut Mountain community. With 3.5 bathrooms and room for up to 8 guests, this North Georgia getaway makes it easy to spend time together by Turniptown Creek. Settle onto the screened deck beside the fireplace, head down to the creekside firepit, soak in the outdoor hot tub, or challenge the group to a game of pool. The wooded setting and several indoor and outdoor gathering spaces give you plenty of ways to shape your stay.
Living Room
The main living space combines warm wood finishes with comfortable seating and an open connection to the kitchen. Catch up with friends after a day around Ellijay, put on a movie, or relax by the electric fireplace while someone gets dinner started nearby.
- Smart TV and comfortable group seating
- Electric fireplace
- Open layout adjoining the kitchen and dining area
Kitchen and Dining
Start with coffee and breakfast before heading out, then return for a meal together at the cabin. The kitchen island and nearby dining space give the group room to gather without stepping away from the conversation. After dinner, the arcade games just off the main living area offer an easy next stop.
- Kitchen with refrigerator, oven and stove, dishwasher, and microwave
- Cookware, dishes, glassware, and utensils
- Drip coffeemaker and Keurig
- Island seating and a dining space
Game Room
The lower-level rec room gives everyone another place to hang out. Set up a game of pool, take turns at darts, or sit at the bar while the next round gets underway. Upstairs, the arcade games bring friendly competition into the main gathering area.
- Pool table and dartboard
- Wet bar and bar-top seating
- Golden Tee 3D and Pac-Man arcade games
Bedrooms
With three bedrooms spread across the main and upper levels, The Goathouse offers places to recharge after a day of sightseeing or a quiet afternoon by the creek. The lower-level common space adds a futon for another sleeping option. Please plan for a maximum of 8 guests even though the bed mix offers flexibility.
- Main level bedroom 1: queen bed
- Main level bedroom 2: 2 full beds
- Upper-level bedroom 3: king bed
- Lower-level common space: futon
- 3.5 bathrooms
Screened Deck and Outdoor Spaces
The screened deck feels like a second living room tucked into the trees. Watch a game by the wood-burning fireplace, share a meal or a conversation, and take in the wooded North Georgia setting. Another covered outdoor space holds the hot tub, and a gas grill gives the group an option for an easy dinner at home.
- Screened deck with seating, fireplace, and outdoor TV
- Outdoor hot tub and gas grill
- Porch with rocking chairs
Creekside Firepit
Follow the outdoor stairs down toward Turniptown Creek and pause at the swing along the way. At the stone patio and firepit, the sound of flowing water becomes part of the evening. The creek is visible from this area; the setting is best enjoyed from the designated seating spaces rather than assuming access to the water.
- Firepit with seating near the creek
- Outdoor swing along the stepped walkway
- Creek and wooded views
Other Amenities
A few practical details help the group settle in for a longer visit. Wi-Fi makes it easy to check plans for tomorrow, and a washer and dryer are available when everyone comes back from outdoor adventures.
- Wi-Fi and washer and dryer
- Central heat and air
- Parking for up to 3 vehicles
Walnut Mountain Community
The Goathouse is located in Walnut Mountain, where guests may also use the community swimming pool. Make cabin time the focus of your trip, or take a break from the hot tub and creekside firepit for a swim at the shared pool.
- Community pool access
Community pool access is provided and managed through a third party. Availability, maintenance, downtime, and closures are outside the host’s control.
Local Fun
Explore things to do in Ellijay when you want a day away from the cabin. Browse downtown shops, plan an orchard stop, or head farther into the North Georgia mountains for a waterfall outing. Distances from The Goathouse have not been independently verified.

Important Information
The mountain driveway is steep. The multi-level cabin has interior and exterior stairs, and reaching the swing and creekside firepit involves a long outdoor staircase and sloped ground. Use extra care in wet weather or after dark. Creek views and sounds are part of the setting, but direct water access is limited and should not be assumed. Parking is limited to 3 vehicles, and the primary renter must be at least 25 years old.
