Our family had an amazing stay at Lake Dakwa Lodge! The location is stunning—overlooking the lake with a huge deck that has plenty of seating and fire pits, perfect for roasting marshmallows with the grandkids. It was the ideal spot to relax and enjoy the view.The cabin fit our group of sixteen perfectly. Everyone had their own spacious bedroom, and the primary suite was a dream—definitely worth claiming! The kitchen made cooking Thanksgiving a breeze, and the large dining table was perfect for meals and games.We loved the four-sided glass fireplace, which became a cozy gathering spot, and the big hanging swing was a hit with the kids, who imagined it as pirate ships, rockets, and everything in between.The rock wall and slide in the playroom downstairs kept the little ones busy for hours, while the adults enjoyed playing pool, making popcorn, and watching football games and movies. And of course, everyone got in on the fun playing skeeball and basketball.With such gorgeous scenery, we couldn’t resist taking tons of family photos—the backdrop was picture-perfect everywhere we turned. We had a wonderful time and created memories we’ll cherish forever. We’ve rented cabins over the years, but everyone agreed that this one far surpassed all the others.If you’re lucky enough to find open dates, don’t hesitate—Lake Dakwa Lodge does not disappoint!

Amazing views, space for everyone
There were 18 of us that came to enjoy your cabin. The basement was amazing for kids, fully stocked with games, 2 large tv's. The space upstairs was spacious and we all enjoyed the views. Thank you for having us.

What a wonderful place for allll ages!!
Our family - myself, the "Nana", two daughters and spouses and 4 kids ranging in ages from 9-18 all had a wonderful stay at this home. There was enough to do right around the house for at least a day and a half. Pedal boat, hot tub, the game room in the house is incredible - all kept everyone entertained. Some went fishing in the lake (it is a small lake -but still fun). Then... if that is not enough find a gazillions areas to go hiking within a 45 minute drive. We did a fantastic 9 mile hike - part of the AT- one day. Rested the next day in the hot tub! For the adults there are several wineries that were super fun. Children were welcome and there was plenty of room for them to run around while the adults chilled. The home itself has the best equipped kitchen I have ever encountered in a vacation rental. The owners are super communicative and quick with responses. Clear instructions - no overbearing "rules". Easy checkin and checkout. Highly recommend Lake Dakwa Lodge!! Elijah is cute town and Blue Ridge is an easy drive - had dinner there one night at Whiskey and Water - very good! Go and have fun!!!

Wonderful Girls Getaway Weekend
We had the BEST weekend staying at this property! We had 13 girls in total and this house was SO spacious and had a bed for everyone! Some of the highlights of the home were the large gathering area upstairs and the Dining table that could fit all 13 girls with no problem. The cabin is well stocked with everything we could need and you can tell the owners take a lot of pride in their cabin. They texted me checking in the entirety of our stay and when we needed more bath towels, she had some delivered within hours! The only 4 star I gave was for cleanliness as there were some things left behind from the previous visitors (boxers in the closet, a qtip on the night stand) but nothing that could deter us from staying again! The Hot Tub was also very clean which is hard to find at vacation homes. We could have stayed a few more days and still had things to do with all the games and activities in the basement! Definitely saving this place for future trips!

Worth every penny
The home is exactly like the photos. Beautiful and spacious. We had 8 adults and 5 children. And plenty to do in the house and in town. The attention to details to the space for children and even having headphones for the piano so the kids could play without driving the adults crazy. The views, the lake and the jacuzzi were by far my favorite. We will definitely be back!

Kids Paradise
This is a must if you have kids. We have 10 year old triplets and a six year old and they never wanted to leave the house. Everything was just as it was posted. Very clean and organized. Pam, the host, was very quick to respond to any questions that I may have had. The house is located on a quaint little lake which added to the beauty of it all. It is also located in a good proximity to Blue Ridge, downtown Elijay, and Cherry Log where there is a great stable. We were only able to do a long weekend but the kids have asked to stay a week next time. Great place! I know we will be back. Just too much to offer not to return!

Perfect Birthday Get Away
From the second we walked through the front door we knew we had made the perfect choice. This home is inviting, spacious, luxurious! Well equipped is an understatement! A real Wow! We had a total of 4 couples the first half of our stay, then a total of 11 people the second half including all of our kids, spouses, and grandkids and the spaces were perfect to truly enjoy one another’s company, yet also have the option of relaxing in the privacy of your own bedroom. (The master bedroom suite was the perfect place to start and end each day.) Everyone enjoyed the incredible game room, the deck, the hot tub, making meals together, the walk around the lake, the feeling that you were in the middle of nowhere yet being just 10 minutes from town, tubing down the river, and close by wineries and some good restaurants - we ventured out almost every day but really would have been content to never leave.

Über den Gastgeber
Zu Gast bei Pamela Fordham
Hello friends,
We are the Fordham's (Gerry & Pamela)! We are originally from the beautiful state of Utah, but since becoming empty nesters, we have been spending our time between California, Arizona, Nevada and most recently Georgia.
In our 36 incredible years together, we've built a beautiful family with 4 children, 4 bonus in-law children, and 5 awesome grandchildren. Our favorite thing to do is spend time with our ever-growing family.
Pamela works as a labor and delivery nurse and Gerry flies helicopters as a life-flight pilot. We feel very blessed to have both found careers that we love! When we are not working or spending time with our beautiful family, we both enjoy playing poker. We have a second vacation rental in Las Vegas that we often visit so we can easily find our way to a poker room and try our luck!
We are happy to share our beautiful lakeside lodge with you and your family. We hope you will be able to fill the lodge with love & laughter, and make new and beautiful memories with friends and family!
Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft
We have fallen in love with the Blue Ridge/Ellijay area. It is incredibly beautiful, and there is so much to see and do outdoors! We fell in love with Lake Dakwa Lodge the moment we stepped out on the balcony. The view of the lake is absolutely breathtaking, and is the perfect place to go and relax, unwind, and forget about the worries of everyday life. There is just something special about being in nature that refuels the soul!
Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig
Lake Dakwa Lodge offers plenty of space and fun activities for large or extended families to come together! We have enjoyed spending time playing games together in the game room, hiking, and playing at the lake. But one of our favorite things to do is just relax and enjoy the view off the balcony.
