DEALS! Island River| HotTub | EV | Firepit

Welcome to Your Private Island Retreat on the Cartecay River

Step into serenity at Cartecay Island Cabin, where the river flows just steps from your door—and your very own island awaits. Whether you're soaking in the hot tub, exploring the private island, or relaxing on the screened porch, your peaceful mountain escape begins the moment you arrive.

Inside, you’ll find everything you need for comfort and connection—from a fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops and a stocked coffee bar, to cozy living spaces with flat-screen TVs, a gas log fireplace, and a full-house music system that plays inside and out.

Looking for fun? Head upstairs to the loft game zone with giant bean bags, a pool/foosball table, puzzles, and retro gaming—perfect for kids or the kid-at-heart.

Outdoors, the options are endless:
• Lounge on the screened porch with a drink from the mini-fridge
• Swing gently in the hammock chairs under the deck
• Soak in the hot tub with river sounds in the background
• Cross the bridge to your private island and sit by the river
• Roast s’mores around the fire pit (wood not provided)
• Plug in your EV with the on-site charger
• Or simply listen to the river as you unwind in a rocking chair

Perfect Mountain Getaway

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with my family. The stay was so wonderful, we asked to extend our trip an extra night. My husband and I loved sitting on the porch listening to the river. My kids loved the porch swings and the game room! We cooked several meals in the house and had every utensil/appliance/pot/pan you could think of! One of the most well appointed kitchens I have used in a rental. Very convenient to Blue Ridge and Ellijay! Will be coming back!

Amazing home

The home was clean and had all the amenities one would need. The location was quite and relaxing. There are numerous places to relax and enjoy the surroundings. There are plenty of local restaurants in area and plenty of things to do and see as well. From apple picking to state parks with beautiful views, the area has it all. We were fortunate enough to go the Amicalola falls on Monday morning and had the falls to ourselves. Absolutely amazing. We would definitely come back to this home.
