    A great place to set up camp. We brought our overlander van to Mulberry a were very pleased with the experience. Kate and Misty were great! Their local knowledge and recommendations were spot on for me and my wife. Breakfast was great and the shower facilities were perfect. We will be back as Mother Nature became the uncontrollable issue. Plan your trip today Tell them the crazy lady on the 80lb e-bike sent you.

    Great place to stay a few days to relax or to enjoy the trails, mountain biking, or hiking, and you can't beat a hot tub at the end of the day. Well maintained facilities, cabins clean and cozy. The bathrooms are always clean, and the barn is available 24/7 to make your own basic meal or to just relax. All the staff anf the owner were super nice.

    All I can say is just WOW! Beautiful, friendly staff and excellent lodging. The meals are top notch!!!! I was rested and at total peace. Nice experience and trails are world class. I will be back at Mulberry Gap Adventure. Andrew and Kate my experience was great, thank you!

    This is the first "all inclusive" kind of MTB destination I have visited and I'd go back for sure. We usually do a VRBO and carry in etc. The crew that runs the place are amazing. Super friendly and accommodating. Home made food every step of the way breakfast and dinner with packed out lunches with more than enough food for the ride. I was a sucker for the meatballs but the pulled pork dinner was maybe even better. The brisket was crazy good as well. Fresh desserts, salad, and they will accommodate picky eaters allergies, etc. SO good. A case full of beers for purchase (all good selections) made it easy. Firewood for a small price was simple. The setup for a weekend of riding was perfect. They even have gear for the small things, Maxxis Tires, chamois butter, some other stuff if you are in a pinch and Catarcay bikes is a solid shop who helped my buddy out with a chain ring issue on the spot. They have cool schwag too..... The cabins exceeded my expectations with comfy beds, good blankets, NICE bathrobes and NICE towels! Good touch. There is AC if its hot and a dehumidifier if needed. We went in Oct and weather was PERFECT! Pillows were fine but i did bring my own. The fire-pit right outside the cabin was base camp for us post ride. The hot tub was nice for a soak after asjos long ride. We brought a hammock which added a nice touch for sure for some suspended living. The bathrooms were well maintained and clean all the way. there is a private bathroom if you don't want to use the group set up. Three showers- its perfectly fine. We rode locally one day on mountain gap and the Pinhoti system and then drove out for different terrain the other days- seeing something a bit more technical vs. up and down. Stanley Gap was by far my favorite ride of the trip. We missed the snake- next time. The trails around here IMHO are not technical (like hardly a rock or root to be found) on many of the trails we rode but the climbing and downhill speed more than makes up for it. Don't miss the Sasquatch Museum on the way back from Stanley gap! It's worth it. Thanks for everything Mulberry Gap - this trip was memorable. You thought of everything and made it REALLY easy.

    Incredible experience!! Andrew and Kate are the quintessential hosts in this little slice of heaven called Mulberry Gap. We had an amazing time meeting other outdoors folks living their dreams. Although not seasoned bikers - we were given great advice on what trails to take and the shuttle service to the top was perfect! For experienced bikers - I think this place is definitely a destination worth exploring. We've never slept so well - cabins and beds are so very comfortable. There are bathrooms and showers scattered throughout the property - and friendly campers if you have your own tents. It's a perfect base camp. And don't forget to sign up for the meals. Andrew is a master chef - serving up tons of delicious home cooking - I promise you won't be disappointed!! The "barn" is lovely. Just enough rustic but super comfy and loads of places to sit inside and out. Be prepared to unplug and enjoy the fresh air and light your own campfire. They are set up all over camp. I'm leaving feeling challenged and refreshed at the same time. Kate said their Thanksgiving dinners are becoming very popular for families - so if you are looking for a new experience to share as a family - I am hoping to get my kids on board for a trip to the amazing Georgia mountains and stay a few with Kate and Andrew again. Thanks to the entire staff of Mulberry Gap for the incredible hospitality!!

    Dad and I stayed here. Service was wonderful. Tons of trails. Staff was super helpful and friendly. They can shuttle you to trailheads and even save you when your tube is blown by driving up to you with a fresh tube and parts. Campsite was gorgeous. Recommend to all MTB rs! They also offer delicious meals although we didn't partake. Fantastic experience

    We had a really fun day trip at Mulberry Gap recently when we biked the Bearhoti Loop with the help of the shuttle up to Bear Creek. The staff was wonderful with answering my many questions about arranging our group outing. They were able to explain the trails and offer recommendations and paper maps if needed. Can't wait to go back!

    We had a great stay here. Donna cooked delicious food and our cabin was adorable. FYI, this place is great for hikers too, we hiked Pinhoti 3 and Emery Falls and checked out conasauga lake. We stayed as a couple but will definitely come back with the kids.

    What an awesome place, great mountain biking, friendly people and the food is terrific. We had heard about Mulberry Gap and when we were in the area we made sure we stayed here a few nights. Loved the area and the cabins we stayed in. Great to be in the woods, in our own cabin and then eat with so many other mountain bikers, cool place to meet, ride, eat and sleep.

    The beautiful scenery of Ellijay is the perfect place to take your mountain bike. Mulberry Gap has all the amenities needed while enjoying nature. The owners and staff are so friendly and helpful. The home cooked meals are incredible. We are so blessed to have this wonderful retreat just an hour away.

    Mulberry Gap is an amazing place, never have I stayed anywhere that comes close to Mulberry Gap. Mulberry Gap is a mountain bike get away. Mulberry Gap is nestled in a mountain valley. The property itself offers camping and bunk houses. The people of Mulberry Gap are the friendliest, kindest and caring group of folks you could come across. They make you feel at home. From the hospitality to home cooked meals everything about Mulberry Gap is simply genuine. The accommodations: you choose from either a bunk house or camping. I choose camping in our small teardrop trailer. The campsite was completely wooded, I felt like I was in the middle of a forest, absolutely beautiful. Right next to our campsite was a small creek, at night the sound of nature and the creek was all that could be heard for miles. The campsites and bunk houses are located near the bottom of the property, a short walk up hill you will find showers, hot tubs and the barn for meals. There are two sets of bath houses. The smaller house is located in the middle of your uphill walk to the barn for meals and the second larger house is located near the bunk houses. The smaller house has one shower, the larger house has three showers and the building itself is made of all wood and is more aesthetically appealing than the smaller bath house. How it all works: Mulberry Gap is known as a mountain bike get away. This means you bring your mountain bike and they do the rest. They have shuttle service that takes you to many trail heads (bear creek, pinhoti), after the drop off you ride back into Mulberry Gap. Mulberry Gap even covers meals. I only do breakfast and dinner but they will cover lunch upon request. All the food they prepare is delicious and one hundred percent home cooked. I stayed six nights and never had the same thing twice. They prepared a different main course every night, from pasta, pork, chicken beef and a ton of fresh veggies and huge salads. The food was delicious, healthy and perfectly cooked every night. Breakfast was just as delicious with fresh eggs, French toast, sausage, pancakes, waffles, fruit and bacon, different every morning. It takes me fourteen hours to get to Mulberry Gap, this is my third visit and I can't wait for my forth. The peaceful camping, wonderful meals and great people make this a destination I will come back to for many years!

This cute bed and breakfast is up in the mountains where we were in the clouds in most mornings during our stay making breakfast time magical. And speaking of breakfast, every night you fill out a form indicating your choice of a sweet or savory meal. Arrive at your table hungry because the portions are fit for a king (huge!) and oh so tasty! (Dinner can also be ordered for an additional fee but again, king sized portions and so delicious! ) The Inn is located in Chatsworth, close to Fort Mountain and the cute town of Ellijay is on the other side of the mountain. There are so many outdoorsy places to visit near by, a long weekend is not nearly enough time to visit! We really enjoy our time visiting with Bill and Nicole and highly recommend a stay here!

The smell of fresh laundry is exactly what you want when you turn down the sheets at a new place-- so clean and cozy. I wasn't sure about our private bathroom being across the hall, but it was honestly great. Bathroom was very large & somehow also cozy [I think it was the warm heat coming out of the floorboard vents each time I stepped out of the shower lol]. Breakfast each morning was a 10/10! Bill is a boss in the kitchen. The homemade granola and lavender peach 2nd course were our two favorite things! If you plan to take it easy at the b&b one evening, go grab takeout brisket from Trinity in Dalton or truffle shiitake pizza from Ellijay Wood Fired Pizza and bring it back up the mountain. One of the best nights we had was eating pizza and playing giant Uno in the common room. [the giant Uno is in the basket to the left of the common room's fireplace!] Be sure to take a left when leaving the b&b so that you can see the INSANE views!! The road down the mountain to the left is SO beautiful! Things to Consider: -A more size inclusive option for the robe. My husband looked so cozy in his robe and I was disappointed that the size large was a bit too small for me. Having a few plus size robes on hand might be something to consider. Having a spot in the room's notebook that mentions larger robes are available upon request would help curvier guests feel that much more welcome & included :) -A way to text or send a message to Bill or Nicole when we have a quick question :) Thanks so much for having us Bill & Nicole! We have already convinced some friends to come and visit you guys!!

This establishment feels very new, and it is well staffed by friendly and knowledgeable folks. We booked a King suite in advance at the rate of $189 for a Saturday night. We did a wine tour throughout the day and made sure to stay local. Our room had a mountain view that made it extra special (room 303). Pros: very clean, feels new, glass walk in shower (no weird tub/shower combo), clean crisp bedding. Free parking and free hot breakfast w/ coffee and juice. Conveniently located within walking distance of a Starbucks, IHOP, WalMart, and more. Other things to note - we booked in advance and could have cancelled without any charge up to 2 days before. That was awesome. I'm very picky about hotels and was just delighted with this Comfort Inn. I typically stay at Marriott brand hotels, and wasn't sure what to expect here. Skip a cabin rental and enjoy a night or two here while you experience some of the cool things that Ellijay has to offer. Safe travels and enjoy!

The rooms are smaller, carpet in the rooms need cleaning. The rooms overall is not as clean as the blue ridge location. The breakfast doesn't even compare to the one in Blue ridge either. Now let's talk about the staff. We arrived around 11:30p no smile, no welcome to comfort inn & suites. She greeted us by saying "name?" She definitely didn't want to be bothered. Checking out at 930am was someone else & same response. Serious face, no Good Morning, definitely didn't want be bothered. Good thing she didn't say "thank you hope to see you again" Because we definitely will never again stay at this location. Take the drive to Blue Ridge comfort inn & suites!

Mary S's response to this review is full of inaccurate statements. I won't go into all of them but i want to state emphatically that I never used foul or abusive language while attempting to resolve our issues. Her statement about the fire pit and my insistence that there was no fire pit during our previous stay is nonsense. It's been several years since we last stayed in the cabin. The description of the cabin on their website mentions both a Gas Fire Bowl AND a fire pit. Mary also failed to mention the most important issu about our stay at this cabin. All rental mountain rental cabins have hot tubs, that's a must when renting a cabin. The hot tub at this cabin never worked properly during our entire stay. The water simply would not heat. that is the issue most dealt with bu the staff. When the hot tub guy came on the 3rd day of our stay he said the heating unit was broke and he needed to order a new part. That resulted in no hot tub during our entire stay. So readers of this review let me ask you. Would a $50 credit be satisfactory considering all the inaccurate website infor and especially considering the hot tub was unusable during our entire stay? I'd be very interested to know how any potential cabin renters would react to these issues.

However, we had some snags in our plans and didn't get into town until late, so we opted for a last-minute hotel room. And to sum up the quality of this hotel...I would have had a better nights rest if I had set up my tent in the ditch off the highway. It would have been cleaner and more comfortable for sure, and it probably would have been safer and quieter as well. So let me save you some time: don't stay here. But because I almost never give 1 or 2 star ratings, I feel like I have to explain. Here's my full review... Cleanliness - I think the room was lightly vacuumed, and I'm genuinely hoping (yet seriously doubting) that at least the sheets and towels are clean. Service - The lady at the front desk was nice enough. But I literally saw no other employees. Granted, we checked in way late and got the hell out as quickly as possible. So I guess I don't know. Amenities - Other than a relatively new microwave and mini fridge, there weren't really any. Only one towel in the room, no hand-soap, no cups (though there was an ice bucket), no pens, no paper, no guest book. There was a table and two chairs (both with suspicious stains and loose screws), a love seat (probably brand new in 1990), a TV so outdated that I had flashbacks to my pre-daycare cartoon time (that was 20 years ago)...you get the picture. Other comments: -Incredibly loud (train crossing directly outside that sounded it's horn every 1/2 - 1 hour) -Maintenance in rooms was non-existent...or maybe the place is under construction...see pics. -Don't expect a hot shower. At highest setting, it was lukewarm. -Overpriced. Look, in a pinch, I'm not a diva. I am happy to stay in a basic, no frills, and outdated hotel...I just expect it to be reasonably clean, safe, and to have hot water. Not only did this place not meet my minimum requirements, but even if it had...I could have stayed at a 3 star hotel for this price.

THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING." Honestly, Wendy yelling at that young girl was wrong and out of line. You could clearly see something was wrong with the girl. I feel like if I were the manager or even the owner of that hotel, I would definitely not be happy with my employee yelling at another employee. Even if you are a manager or supervisor, it's not okay to yell at your employee like that. My family and I will not be going back. I hope that young girl is okay, and I hope Wendy doesn't do this to anyone else there. I'm sure that if Wendy did it to her, she does it to all of the employees there.
