Shine on the Cartecay Hot Tub + Game Room Hammocks & Fire Pits | Cabin in Ellijay
3 Bedroom Cabin in Ellijay
Wake up to birdsong and the whisper of the Cartecay River, just steps from your back door. Spend mornings sipping coffee in a riverside hammock, afternoons conquering the game-room putting green, and evenings soaking under starlit skies in the hot tub. With two floors of well-designed space, luxe kitchen, and every outdoor game you can name, this home is the perfect mash-up of rustic mountain vibes and modern convenience.
The Space
