Very, very nice house located right on the river. Perfect place for families and adult groups. Owner was very responsive and made the entire process very easily. This house is an absolute win!
We really enjoyed the relaxation. Being on the river & relaxing in the hot tub was perfect. My husband and I enjoyed the long weekend my our three children & both sets of parents. Cabin was stocked with EVERYTHING you need. Just pack clothes food & enjoy. Thank you, The Whites, Paynes & Roudebushs
We stayed at the Cartecay River House recently and were happy with the property. It was spacious and we were very happy with how clean the property was. It had a great deck to relax and enjoy the view of the river. We would definitely rent this property again!
We enjoyed the view and a weekend of relaxing. Multiple king beds was a plus.
Our family enjoyed our stay in your North Ga home!!! Very quiet and nice neighborhood; surprised by the wildlife we saw each day on the river from the porches!!! Thanks for allowing us to stay in your home!!!
We had a great time. The view was nice and the cabin was comfortable.
Beautiful cabin on the river! Owner was easy to communicate with.
This magnificent cabin was Jay what our family needed! I will absolutely return to this property!!
Have rented this house for the past 16 years on this date. House is more expensive then surrounding houses. May look into other houses on the same street due to the price next year, but would come back.
Floated the river, rinsed off and hit the hot tub everyday. We don’t usually do the same property twice, but we might have to hit this one again! Awesome and communicative owners with great suggestions for activities in Ellijay. Lovely people.
This is our 3rd year staying in the home and it was still just as nice as the first time. Kathy is always kind and very responsive. The home is prefect for our 10 people. Kitchen is stocked well for all of our cooking needs.
We just left the Cartecay River House and had an absolute amazing time. We stayed for 6 nights which was perfect for our group of 9. The house had ample sleeping room and the way the home was set up our three groups each had their own floor to themselves at night. Everything was well thought out and very clean. We enjoyed white water rafting on the Ocoee (45 min away), pontoon boat rental on lake blue ridge (30 min away), zip lining in blue ridge and of course hanging out on the Cartecay River. We anchored some connected tubes in front of the property to chill out and take it easy but when we wanted to float we drove a mile down the road to the canoe launch and floated an hour back to the house. We will definitely consider coming back next year. Thank you Kathy for being so attentive and for letting us stay in your beautiful home!
We had an amazing time at the Cartecay River House. Very clean, well thought out house in an amazing location. We had a blast and would love to come back again.
Clean, well maintained, beautiful. My only suggestion would be to label all the light switches.
