I have taken my 3 adult girls glamping for 2 years and it is now a "must do" annual event. The experience is unique. You get the wonder of camping with the comfort of 5-star linens. The owners of the Martyn House are wonderful and make you feel like family from the moment you enter the property. The breakfasts are... More

We were here for a weekend with 3 other couples. Everyone had a wonderful time. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. We enjoyed sunny days and cool evenings by the campfire. JoAnn and Rick were very knowledgeable about the area and interesting to talk to. Glamping made camping fun for the non camper. Looking forward to coming again to see their... More

What a great retreat! This was a girls trip for me, without husband and kids. I do a girls trip every year and usually to a big city, beach, or tourist town. I have to say I loved being nested in the woods and secluded from the hustle and bustle. We had 5 tipsy gypsies total and our hosts at... More

My husband and I have never been glamping and our experience at the Martyn House was wonderful. With indoor plumbing, it is as close to camping as I will get. Rick and JoAnn are entertaining hosts and fabulous cooks. Each meal was a treat and I would highly recommend the farm-to-table dinner. We felt very welcome. Three other couples were... More

We selected early September so we could experience the Farm to Table dinner. Turns out there was so much to experience in addition to the wonderful dinner of incredibly fresh foods and wines from a local vineyard. The breakfasts were exceptional. Each morning there was a new and different extremely healthy entree. JoAnn and Rick are lovely, warm people and... More

I celebrated my birthday with five friends and enjoyed it so much I wrote a blog about the experience. http://gocomics.typepad.com/7day_menu_planner/ I gave the experience 5 stars because every part of it was terrific: food, "rooms", hosts and surroundings. The place even has resident cats and dogs who are part of the welcome "committee." From all reports, everyone had a great... More

My husband and I loved EVERYTHING about the Martyn House. JoAnn and Rick both, were such amazing individuals. I can't begin to explain the warmth from them, their hospitality, generosity, and passion for what they do for others. They opened up THEIR home, and shared it with US, to explore. Our accommodations were so incredibly beautiful, (We had the Hummingbird... More

From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and treated very well through out our stay. It was very relaxing. It was very cold in fact the coldest it has been since they opened but we were kept warm in the tent by the heater and outside by the warm fire pit. The breakfast's were unbelievable, very fresh, tasty and... More

We had the best time Glamping. The "tents" are comfortable and homey. We went in late October when it was fairly chilly at night, and the heaters in the tents were more than adequate to keep us toasty warm. JoAnn and Rick are amazing people, talented artists, and remarkable hosts. We went during a Farm to Table dinner and that... More

The Martyn House was a perfect weekend getaway for celebrating our anniversary. It's just a delightful place with wonderful hosts who have set up the most charming place in the woods of North GA. We loved our glamour tent with king-size bed and feather quilt, bathroom and front porch. There was a nice campfire at night where we sat and... More
