3 months and counting...w00t!

Well, I just made reservations again at The Overlook Inn in Ellijay, GA. After Kelly and the boys had been out of town for 6 weeks last summer Kelly and I went and stayed the night there and fell in love with the place! Very romantic and beautiful scenery. We decided it would be an annual event, as she finally got it - she FINALLY realized that we, as a husband and wife, HAVE to get away every now and then to remind us of our roles OTHER than mom/dad. So we have been talking about it and decided to do a quick fall trip this year when it is cooler and the leaves are colorful.

We stayed in the the Grand Gahuti last year and planned on staying there this year too for nostalgia's sake. That is, until I saw their new addition. You see, the Overlook Inn, though very private, is still a small B&B with a communal sitting area with fireplace, etc. Let's just say that when we go on these trips we don't want to be looking over our shoulder to see who's around. Well, they have added a new, separate, "secluded" cabin - the "Ananda". When I asked just how secluded it was, the owner kind of giggled and said, "Don't worry, you can't see nothin' except the view of the overlook..."... BONUS! Hmmm... let's see....

  • Brand New Spa Cabin
  • Elegant 3 Course Gourmet Breakfast at the Inn each morning
  • Complimentary Wine & Cheese Tray in your cabin the night of arrival
  • Join us at the Inn each night for Complimentary Wine and Cheese Hour
  • Steam Shower for 2
  • Cedar Lined Sauna inside cabin
  • Satellite TV - CD / DVD
  • Stacked Rock Wood-Burning Fireplace
  • Fantastic Mountain View - Very Secluded
  • Gas Grill
  • Use of the Inn Extensive Library
  • Egyptian Cotton Robes
  • Hairdryer - Shampoo, Soap & Spa Salts
Um, yeah, baby! Check out these pictures - the place looks beautiful! Can't wait! Though I don't know how much I will be able to report back afterwards.... hehehe. For all my buddies living in the area, you should really check this place out, quiet, romantic, the food is great, and the people are super nice!
