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 thoroughly enjoyed our stay this week for Spring Break. There were plenty of outdoor activities to do, and so many outdoor items supplied by the house. The kids enjoyed playing in the stream and hot tub, and the game room was great for spacing out everyone in sleeping quarters. Martha was great to communicate with. We would love to come back!
The house is beautiful and is got all the amenities that you would want would definitely suggest staying at this house and the host was very helpful. Will be coming back.
The host was amazing. The cabin is beautiful and stocked with everything you could think of to make your stay awesome. We had the best time with our teenage kids. They loved everything to do outside. It is a perfect quiet getaway to reconnect and unwind. We would love to come back and make more great memories.
This property was in a beautiful peaceful location and the cabins were incredibly clean. We could not get over how clean, neat, and organized the cabins were.
We truly enjoyed our time with our family. Cabin location is convenient to nearby towns and had everything we needed to stay in if we wanted. Martha is a fantastic host!
The house and game room/loft were HUGE. All the bathrooms and showers were beautifully done. The property was super clean. Martha, the manager was great to work with and very sweet. Nothing negative to say about the property. It was perfect! The stream, the old bridge, the hot tub, the fire pit and the loft above the game room. All were perfect. I absolutely recommend this property.
Our getaway was amazing the cabin was beautiful clean and immaculately decorated and the tranquility of Big Creek was very relaxing. Martha is the greatest premier host ever she’s very kind and informative she makes staying at her properties feels very welcoming.
We were 9 ladies and enjoyed our stay very much, very comfortable, very very clean, cabin was in nice water front location. We would be going back again to the same cabin next year.
Everything was great! The host was very attentive and accommodating. The cabin was well stocked with everything you need. We enjoyed the added touches of games and outdoor toys.
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!
We had a great immediate family get together in early June 2025. This property is absolutely breautiful and very peaceful. Many games and activities are provided to keep everyone entertained. Even more important, the owner, Martha, was so very kind and helpful....she even mailed items that were forgotten back to me. I highly recommend this property (wish I could give it 10 stars).
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!!
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.
This place was Amazing!! Peaceful and relaxing. The cabin had everything you would need. Martha was so kind and attentive if you had any questions or needed anything. My husband said that this was the best birthday ever and was so happy I found this cabin and location. We look forward to our next trip to Castaways.

From arrival to departure our experience was perfect. The cabin is situated deep in the mountains and perfectly peaceful. The cabin has tons of amenities, and is decorated beautifully. Martha was easy to work with and provided perfect personal touches along the way. While at the cabin we enjoyed fishing and playing in the creek, relaxing in the hot tub, and hiking in the woods. We hope to return again in the future.

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!
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!!
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!
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!
This place is beautiful!
The pictures doesn’t do it justice.
The 7 of us stayed 3 nights at this roomy cabin in the woods. There was so much to do at the cabin we didn’t need to leave. It went by way too quick.
Martha and David were amazing.
Any questions I had they were right on it.
Martha even made us banana nut bread. So cute!
I would definitely stay there again.
