Creel Lodge

After only six months of planning, we have all safely arrived at the Creel Lodge. Nestled in the mountains of Ellijay, GA, this rustic cabin comes complete with a rushing stream in the back yard! It has become a tradition (going on 4 years now) for our family to take a trip to a cabin in the woods during the fall season. Mom began her search for the perfect cabin sometime in June and immediately booked the pet friendly Creel Lodge when she realized that it met all of her cabin criteria. Here are a few photos from our trip so far....

Berkley and Pete wasted no time jumping in the stream. They loved it!

Scooter thought he could get in the stream too and almost floated away. Lucky for him, Matt was there to save him.

Such a cozy spot! I spent most of my afternoon here. With a blanket, of course.
