Welcome to Shepherd’s Run – where dogs aren’t just allowed… they’re celebrated.
Tucked away on 1.6 private acres just minutes from Downtown Ellijay, this fully renovated 1940s cottage blends rustic charm with modern comfort—creating a relaxed, dog-first retreat surrounded by open pastures, mountain views, and nature at its best. In spring and summer, wild peppermint blankets the grounds, filling the air with a fresh, calming scent you won’t forget.

A true paradise for your dogs (and just as special for you):
Your furry companions will have the time of their lives with two fully fenced play areas. One is designed for fun and exploration—complete with a fire pit, agility-style seesaw, three truck tires, a “sniffari” path with natural textures, balls of all sizes, and a giant sandbox for digging. There’s even a doggy pool (stored under the deck) for warmer days.

Whether they love to run, sniff, dig, or simply lounge in the sun—this space was created with them in mind.

A little history:
Shepherd’s Run was once a free-range mini farm, home to chickens, roosters, bunnies, and more. Since purchasing the property in 2022, we’ve lovingly transformed it into the peaceful retreat it is today—while keeping its warm, welcoming spirit alive (and yes, the red roof and doors reflect that energy perfectly).

Good to know before booking - The bathroom is shared and accessible through the main bedroom only!!

Guests have access to the entire home except a locked storage cabinet and crawlspace
