Outdoor Living at Its Finest
The outdoor amenities are truly the highlight of this beautiful riverfront Ellijay cabin rental. Relax in the soothing hot tub as you take in the breathtaking views of the Cartecay River and the surrounding North Georgia Mountains. While the cabin is tucked into a serene, natural setting, you may hear some road noise from across the river — a reminder that you're close to conveniences and some of the highlighted attractions of our area, while still feeling worlds away. Enjoy evenings by the riverside fire pit, where the gentle sounds of the water provide the perfect soundtrack for roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the stars.

Inside, the fun continues with a game room featuring a pool table and arcade games, perfect for guests of all ages to enjoy after a day of outdoor adventure. A unique highlight of the cabin is the large custom water wheel, churning the river water into a small pond below, giving this retreat its charming name: Waterwheel on the Cartecay.

A spacious outdoor deck invites al fresco dining, complete with a mini kitchen and a well-appointed eating area. The deck also features a romantic swing built for two, perfect for quiet moments together as the river flows peacefully below. For sports enthusiasts, there’s no better spot to catch a Sunday ball game than from a cozy rocking chair on the deck, accompanied by a glass of wine from a nearby North Georgia winery.

Rustic Elegance Meets Modern Comfort

Step inside this brand-new cabin to discover custom craftsmanship and luxurious touches throughout. Cathedral ceilings and gorgeous wood floors create an inviting ambiance, while the true wood-burning fireplace in the living area sets the stage for cozy winter nights. Imagine snuggling up with your special someone in front of the crackling fire, celebrating a special occasion as the glowing embers dance and fade.

The fully equipped kitchen is a culinary haven, boasting top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a large island complete with a sink, microwave, and dishwasher. With ample seating and plenty of space to prepare and serve meals, this kitchen is perfect for hosting family feasts or casual gatherings with friends.

Comfortable Accommodations

The cabin offers three well-appointed sleeping spaces to comfortably host up to six guests. On the main level, you’ll find a luxurious King bedroom featuring a spacious ensuite bathroom, a flat-screen TV, and direct access to the deck.
