Camp Cartecay – Luxury Riverfront Cabin Rental in Ellijay, GA

Tucked along the peaceful banks of the Cartecay River in Ellijay, Georgia, Camp Cartecay is a beautifully crafted North Georgia mountain cabin rental that blends rustic charm with modern luxury. This upscale 2-bedroom, 2-bath retreat is ideal for couples, honeymooners, or small families looking for a relaxing riverside escape—just 15 minutes from downtown Ellijay and close to orchards, wineries, and scenic hiking and horseback riding trails.

Step inside and you’ll immediately feel at ease. With two spacious king bedrooms—each with its own full bath and porch access—you’ll enjoy privacy and comfort, whether you're visiting with family or planning a romantic getaway. Picture yourself and that special someone celebrating a birthday or anniversary as you soak in the hot tub under the stars, or cozy up by the gas log fireplace with a glass of wine and the sounds of the river just outside your door.

The main living area is perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure, with a plush reclining sofa and chairs, a 65” flat-screen TV, and large windows that let in soft mountain light. The fully equipped kitchen is a dream for cooking or entertaining, with stainless steel appliances, a generous buffet island, and everything you need to whip up anything from a hearty breakfast to a romantic dinner for two. Better yet, call in a personal chef and let him do the cooking for you!

Upstairs, the primary suite is a private sanctuary with French doors that open to a balcony overlooking the river—perfect for morning coffee or a quiet nightcap. The en suite bath features double vanities, a walk-in shower, and a garden tub for relaxing after a day of exploring. Downstairs, the second king bedroom is just steps from a newly renovated bath with a double walk-in shower and also offers direct access to the back porch.

But it's the outdoor living space that truly sets Camp Cartecay apart. Imagine you and the kids gathered around the fire pit, roasting marshmallows and sharing ghost stories, the gentle rush of the river as your background music. Spend the afternoon lounging in the Adirondack or anti-gravity chairs, fire up the gas grill for dinner, or challenge each other to a fun game of cornhole.

A standalone riverside deck with a picnic table offers another great spot for lunch with a view or soaking up the peaceful energy of the Cartecay. And when you're ready to unwind, the private hot tub is the perfect way to end the day.

Our guests rave about the soothing river sounds, and many say their favorite part of summer is sitting on the back porch and watching tubers float by, it's like having a front-row seat to nature’s lazy river! Be sure to check out one of the local outfitters to get your own tube, and enjoy a personal ride down the Cartecay River.

Another nice perk of staying at Camp Cartecay is the whole-house generator, you can rest easy knowing your stay will be worry-free no matter what the weather brings.
