The cabin is located a quick ten miles from downtown Ellijay and truly is a dream come true in the mountains. The warm furnishings, ample space and pure comfort make this a unique place to stay during your escape to the mountains. As you walk inside, you’ll notice the lovely indoor fireplace with a painting of the cabin’s namesake right above it.

It’s meant to create positive thoughts and a reminder to enjoy life with our loved ones for all who stay at Rudy's Retreat.
  
Another place for bliss and fun at Rudy's Retreat? The well-stocked game room. Enjoy billiards, a foosball table, and air hockey when you stay here. For the family that likes being competitive, we’ve got you covered!
 
The outdoor areas are immense and lovely, complete with an outdoor fireplace, a gas grill, and a hot tub. Fire up the grill and cook some delicious burgers and take a seat at the outdoor table. Cozy on up to the fireplace with a glass of wine and Fido (yes - the cabin is dog-friendly!) and get ready for an evening you won’t soon forget.
 
Near the cabin, the owners love Roo Mountain Vineyards, The Roof Ellijay, Cantaberry and The Shack of Ellijay. These unique local spots provide memories that you’ll only find in the Blue Ridge area. Pure bliss awaits at this cabin. So, book your stay and prepare for relaxation!

It felt very homey and comfortable. We appreciated all there was too do between watching TV wherever and whenever we wanted, the video game consoles, the game room downstairs, the large dinning room table, the outdoor patio space. The quality of the appliances was very good. Overall the home was beautiful and functional.

We really enjoyed the downstairs level with the game room. There was so much to do and all the children had a blast playing all the games. It was also nice that the adults could hang out on the middle floor with a nice fireplace and very comfy furniture.

Absolutely Amazing!
Rudy’s Retreat was more than I imagined! The views and amenities available were outstanding!! Gorgeous surroundings, easy drive up to the cabin and short drive into the adorable town of Ellijay! Surrounded by amazing wineries within a very short drive as well. So much to do, yet nestled in a quiet mountain setting. Outdoor fireplace and hot tub was a big hit! Game room was awesome! Comfy beds and everything you need for an awesome get-away!
