HOMEAWAY
HomeAway offers more than 300 cabins for rent in the Ellijay area, making the website a great resource for booking your Ellijay cabin getaway. Most of the cabins available are actually outside the technical city of Ellijay, and are more around the riverfront and in the more remote, secluded areas of the region. For a peak seasonal stay in the fall, on a weekend, you can expect cabin prices to range from $75 to $300 per night. As you might assume, the pricier cabins come with more amenities, more space, better locations and other perks that those more affordable cabins might not offer. Popular amenities across the cabins include hot tubs, pools, decks, game rooms and fireplaces. Pet-friendly cabins are not uncommon.
Only a small fraction of the cabins available offer the Instant Confirmation feature, which can be a downside to some travelers, as that means you might be unable to instantly book your stay at your preferred Ellijay cabin.

BOOKING.COM
Booking.com has by far the fewest number of Ellijay cabins available for rent via its booking system. You can search the site for vacation homes, but that obviously doesn’t only include cabins. The prices on the website are also not as good as what you might find elsewhere, with some nightly rates soaring past $500 per night.
You can find Ellijay cabins on Booking.com with amenities such as free cancellations, desirable views, hot tubs, air conditioning and pools. Do keep in mind that not all cabins in Ellijay come with air conditioning, so if this is a vital amenity for you and your fellow travelers, confirm that it’s available before you book.
