2BR Riverside Escape | Hot Tub · Fire Pit · Loft

Top rated by guests
Plenty of parking and an easy approach. The cabin sits quietly at the end of a gravel drive surrounded by old-growth trees.
Inviting kitchen with a distinctive geometric backsplash and open shelving, blending style with everyday functionality.
The dining nook seats four beneath a trio of windows overlooking the forest, making every breakfast feel a little more special.
The Cartecay River runs fast and clear along the 150ft property line. In summer, guests wade in the shallows. In fall, the leaves turn gold above the rapids.
The pine stair leads up to the loft suite a completely separate sleeping and entertainment space above the main living area.

Every corner of this cabin retreat is made with intention and care. From the second you walk in, everything has it's place and is properly labeled. The living room is spacious, and plenty of temperature control options, the furniture is quite comfy, there is a streaming stick connected to the TV allowing you to watch any services you have. Both patios are quite comfortable and clean. There is a hot tub and grill which we did not unfortunately have a chance to utilize. The bathroom is spacious, with towels provided. The bedroom has options for both firm and soft pillows, something we really appreciated, we haven't seen anywhere else have this option! In the kitchen, everything has its place and we had absolutely no problem cooking several meals. And upstairs you'll find the loft. A comfy, low ceiling room with a projector. If mobility permits, you'll find this room perfect, but do note you'll have to make your way up stairs to reach it. The host is also incredibly communicative. Every question I had was promptly answered, both before and after check in. There's also a provided welcome guide that contains info regarding each room in the cabin, nearby restaurants and things to do in the Ellijay area. We took some of the recommendations and loved all of them. Highly recommend the Cartecay River loop (check weather conditions beforehand and give yourself 2-3 hours of sunlight to really enjoy it)This cabin retreat is just really amazing. It blew my mind. Highly recommend!!

PERFECT ANNIVERSARY/FALL BREAK WEEKEND.

This was probably one of the best equipped cabins we have stayed in. Everything is in and so tastefully decorated. You can hear the rushing river whether you are inside, sitting on the screed porch or by the fire pit. We also appreciated all the little extras in the kitchen and the rooms. We had everything we needed and more. The beds are very cozy and the blackout curtains ensured a good night's rest. Everything was really great and we enjoyed our time so much. Cozy evenings by the fire pit were very memorable. We will definitely be back for another visit!
