EXCELLENT Based on 59 reviews MiryamNovember 24, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so glad that I chose to rent this cabin!! The cabin was very cozy and clean. Loved the fact that food, stores are easily accessible. The staff were great and very easy to communicate with. Waking up every morning to the beautiful view, the view was absolutely breathtaking!! Jill SeymoreOctober 17, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What an awesome location! And the property was in amazing condition considering the flooding from the hurricane. New gravel had just been laid, thanks to Keith (an incredible groundskeeper). We enjoyed the river everyday, and built a fire quite a few nights. Highly recommend this place! We only left twice...the rest of the time, we cooked and enjoyed the scenery.

This was a perfect spot to relax and rest!!! Ironed it here. I'll definitely stay here again when in the area!!!

I can't express enough how pleased my wife and I were with Cabin #7, Cast A Line, at the Ela Shores Cabins. There were actually 3 other couples that traveled with us and they stayed in Cabins #5, #6 & #8. Each cabin was very large with all amenities that you could ask for, were very comfortable, spotless clean, roomy, great views and right on the river. The cleaning staff was friendly and accommodating in every aspect. Our entire group trailered our Harely Davidson's up from Florida and spent 5 days riding in the mountains. The cabin property had spacious trailer parking out of the way of the cabins and also has covered motorcycle parking which was great to have. My wife and I were so happy with the location and quality that was provided within the cabins we are planning to return in 2025 for another week. looplizardSeptember 21, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our motorcycle club rented 4 cabins. We couldn’t have been happier. They were clean roomie, and had everything that you needed for your stay. A beautiful river right behind the cabins. The location was perfect,… restaurants, Bars, grocery stores, gas stations and even a casino nearby. I highly recommend Ella Shores, for Low cost, cleanliness & location, JudyAugust 20, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
