Loved by Every Guest

David and Ruth, hosts of The Bear Necessity Cabin, at a Blue Ridge Mountain overlook in Ellijay, Georgia

Meet David & Ruth

Hi — we’re David & Ruth! We fell for Ellijay’s enchanting blend of natural beauty and small-town charm, and we bought this cabin to share a piece of it with guests like you.

Ellijay’s friendly community and quaint downtown exude the kind of warmth and hospitality that made us put down roots here — and we pour that same care into every stay. When you book direct, you’re not dealing with a call center; you’re talking to us, and we’re always just a message away.
