Heaven's Gate is a spectacular five bedroom, three and a half bath upscale cabin. It offers an open floor plan, majestic stone fireplace, and a wall of windows to enjoy conversations while taking in breathtaking long-range mountain views. This mountain getaway offers games for everyone, so why not host a tournament of pool, foosball, or air hockey or play one of the board games or the arcade. The media center boasts a 50" HDTV screen with surround sound, a PlayStation Game Console, an Xbox Game Console, and over 50 movies and video games ensure endless entertainment. There are seven HDTVs and unlimited high speed WiFi. Smart TVs and game consoles have Netflix/HULU streaming services.

Venture out onto the terrace patio and soak in the spacious hot tub or cozy up to the fire pit and enjoy s’mores and telling stories as the sun sets over the mountains. The wrap around deck featuring comfortable seating around a granite fire table is a great conversation place. An outdoor playground with climbing wall, swings, and pirate fort is also available for the little ones to enjoy nature’s beauty. The site is a certified wildlife habitat with the National Wildlife Federation for the naturalist at heart.

There is a Keurig Coffee machine, drip coffee, waffle maker, slow cooker, griddle, toaster, and kettle to name a few. Just bring the provisions and let your culinary creativity flow.

We had the pleasure of spending the MLK weekend with family and friends at this lovely cabin. It was close to everything but yet it was set apart, so you got the feel of being in a secluded cabin. The beds were comfortable, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. I loved the dining area. There is a huge square table that seats 8, it was good for eating, playing board games, and talking. The living area has a gas fireplace that kept the house nice and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked with everything imaginable including extra pots and pans, plenty of silverware, waffle maker, mixer and electric skillet ... everything! This cabin should be called Fun Times because there are games galore. There was a pool table, air hockey, foosball and even books, videos and board games. Outside there is a little fort area with a swing and rock wall for the kids. The fire pit was awesome. There is even a clear area out back, if you want to throw the football around. Simply put, this cabin has something for everyone. The owners are kind and accommodating. They want you to really enjoy your stay. They provided us with things to do in the area. They really took care of us. I would recommend this cabin to anyone who wants to have a carefree good time!

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony or patio.

Amazing stay/amazing location!
We had family travel from South Florida and Oregon for a family weekend away in the mountains. This home was nothing short of perfect for our family! The only downfall is we wish we booked a longer stay. Beautiful views, and a beautiful home. Lee was also very communicative during our stay for questions we had. Highly recommend.

Great getaway spot for family vacation
This is a great home for a secluded getaway vacation. The views were spectacular. Did some easy day trips to Chattanooga and Atlanta, and downtown Ellijay was lovely for shopping and eating out too. The house was great, lots of space of a large family (and a dog).

Wonderful spring break getaway
We had a group of 2 families, 7 people total and had plenty of room for all of us. Our teenagers loved having their own queen size bed and the parents both had king size beds, all were comfy. The kitchen has everything you need, along with a grill and smoker outside too. It was chilly while we were there, but the temp in the cabin stayed warm all week. The view is absolutely amazing and spending time on the porch is a must. It's close to a lot of great places to visit. The roads and driveway are all paved which made travel easy. Definitely recommend!

70th birthday party for six people with two additional spouses.
And although we could not get the fire table to stay on, the downstairs fireplace was used both Friday and Saturday and work well with firewood that was provided and firewood that we brought. Heaven’s Gate is a treasure and we thoroughly enjoyed the indoor fireplace and gathering areas. The hot tub worked well and everybody had a great time. Lee, the owner, was very informative and splendid to work with. We look forward to using Heaven’s Gate again.

This home was everything and then some! We went a few weeks before Christmas with our adult children and their spouses and all were very impressed. The house was very spacious and the views were absolutely beautiful! The house was immaculate, very well equipped and decorated for the holiday with a beautiful Christmas tree with the view of the mountains behind it! The host was very accommodating. No question about it-we plan on returning!

Perfect for us
Just as advertised. Kitchen has everything we could have needed. We had a total of six adults, two teenage boys, a seven and five year old and an old lab. Yard was great, location was great and the house has plenty of room and things for everyone to enjoy. Peaceful and quiet location. Beautiful views!! Plenty of towels and outdoor area was very nice. Would recommend that the comforters get laundered, especially the master bedroom. Really that would be the only thing we could recommend-the house was clean and beautiful. We have visited the North Georgia mountains many times and would definitely be happy to stay at this cabin again.

The home is as pictured and very comfortable. Plenty of glass to enjoy the views. We found all of the basices were present and even several "extras" we were able to enjoy such as games and kitchen appliances. Driveway was no problem even for the rental car (Hyundai elantra).

Great cabin and owner!
The cabin was just as listed/advertised. Beautiful area. Very close to Ellijay and only 15 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. Drive to cabin not steep or difficult (we went at end of October). Cabin was clean, well equipped with towels, kitchen/cooking supplies, and roomy. Outside seating was very comfortable and relaxing. There are some things that could be done to spruce up the cabin, but it’s still very nice. Would have liked the air hockey table to be downstairs because the noise interrupts those watching TV in the living room. Lee, the owner, was very communicative and friendly and immediately addressed a small issue with the cabin. I definitely recommend this cabin for anyone looking to enjoy Ellijay, Blue Ridge, and the surrounding area with either a family or friends and definitely recommend Lee as an owner.
