    Luxury Riverfront Cabin - Pet Friendly

    Welcome
    When you lead a busy, hectic, overscheduled life, you need the peaceful, quiet respite that a Georgia mountain cabin rental provides. You’ll find it at Cartecay River Dreams, the perfect place to slow down, decompress, breathe the fresh mountain air, and relax in an idyllic wooded, waterfront setting.

    About the Area
    Surrounded by trees in a gated community in Ellijay called The Bluffs of Cartecay, this gorgeous Satterwhite-built log home sits on two secluded acres, with over 200 feet of Cartecay river frontage and no other cabins in sight. It’s the ultimate in privacy, but less than two miles to the shopping complex, four miles to the restaurants and antique shopping in Ellijay and just miles to downtown Blue Ridge.

    The Spot
    If you love the water, you can enjoy it in several forms here, whether it’s listening to the sound of the rushing river from the back deck or the brook from the front yard, soaking in the hot tub, or sitting by the backyard pond. The Cartecay River is just steps from the back door, so you can fish to your heart’s content and grill your catch for dinner on the outdoor grill overlooking the river. The outside areas are designed for outdoor living, with rockers and patio chairs to relax in, a 50” TV, wraparound porches and three fire pits to warm you.

    The Living Area
    Inside, the cabin is a beautiful mix of rustic elegance and modern comfort, with soaring vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and large windows overlooking the Cartecay River providing a bright and airy feel and wildlife décor to highlight the nature theme. Reclining chairs, sofa and loveseat, a stacked stone gas fireplace and 65” TV with DVD make the great room a warm and welcoming place to relax and unwind.

    The Kitchen
    The spacious kitchen is fully equipped and furnished with solid wood cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an icemaker, coffee maker and more. The adjacent dining area seats up to seven, plus three at the breakfast bar.


    The Bedrooms
    You’ll slumber in comfort in your choice of three bedrooms, each with luxury bedding, a 50” TV, and ceiling fan. The master bedroom overlooks the river and features a king log bed and zero gravity massage chair, and a private bath with granite counters, walk-in shower, double showerheads, double vanities, and a walk-in closet. The second bedroom also overlooks the river and features a queen log bed. The third bedroom is set up with two twin log beds. Both share a bath with a step-in tub/shower, granite counters and a linen closet.

    The Game/Movie Room
    The cabin comes with a well-equipped garage game room, featuring a pool table, foosball, darts, A 50” TV and a multitude of board games for every age. The movie room above comes with a 75” TV with streaming service that will keep the kids occupied while parents enjoy some quiet time.

    Other Amenities
    The cabin’s other amenities include Wi-Fi, Roku, washer/dryer off the kitchen, paved roads throughout the neighborhood and leading to the cabin, a large gravel driveway with plenty of parking available on the driveway or on the parking pad in front of the garage, a fishing dock, and stairs that lead directly into the river. It’s dog friendly too, so you can bring your furry best friend with you as you enjoy your unforgettable getaway at Ruby River Cabin.

    My Family’s Experience
    Usually I would start a review with a list of all the positives. In this case, I want to mention the negatives first so that other travelers will hopefully see what I missed. Not only did I miss some of the more truthful reviews, the descriptive listing provided was a bit misleading. This property is NOT quiet and secluded. Directly behind the house is a beautiful river. But then you are looking directly at the back of a paint and body shop that is on a loud and heavily traveled highway. Unfortunately, the noise made worse by dumpsters being emptied. My last complaint is the mention of three outdoor fire pits to stay warm by. There’s one with no starter or wood to burn. The house itself is great!! Very, very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. I was looking for a quiet, secluded mountain getaway to enjoy with my family. While we enjoyed our time together, this particular property with the given description was disappointing.

    Good, Not Great
    The curb appeal at the front of the cabin is everything we were hoping for. The front yard is very large and the overall appearance of the front of the cabin is very appealing. The neighborhood where the cabin is located is very nice. The furniture in the house was very comfortable. It was a cozy place. The location to the grocery store was very convenient and we really enjoyed the hot tub! There were some issues with the cabin that are worth mentioning before the next group arrives: The blinds need dusting really, really badly. Only half of the screen on the outdoor TV works. The other half of the screen is black. The water pressure in the cabin was never strong enough for our kids to use their own shower—they used the shower in the master bedroom for the entire stay. Although we knew there would be road noise, we were bummed that it was so loud and so busy. Also, the listing mentioned all the fishing we could do at the cabin. There was no fishing equipment that we could find on the property, which was a huge let down to our little boy who loves to fish. The remote control car in the game room also never worked, which was also very disheartening to our kids who wanted to play with it. The bag of complimentary marshmallows was open upon arrival, so we had to throw them away. We are not a fussy family, so we tolerated the issues with the cabin. However, the next bunch may not be so forgiving.

    The property was everything clean inviting relaxing and the hot tub was amazing. Had a great time with family. The only negative was the directions on the GPS wasn't great and it was hard to find. The furbabies had everything they needed to. Bowls a crate . I took there wireless fence and they to enjoyed the property and privacy.

    Beautiful home away from home.
    What a wonderful home away from home! The hosts thought of EVERYTHING!!! Beds & couches are comfy, linens are plush (robes included), tons of kitchen essentials, surprise S’Mores kits, exciting game room, inviting porches & fire pit, lovely hot tub & absolutely beautiful river with easy access! This cabin is PERFECT. One thing to note ~ Please be aware that this property is right on the river, which is awesome, but directly across the river is a pretty busy highway & the road noise definitely changes the “feel” of the property. You get busy road noise from 6am - 10pm.

    FYI mosquitoes were bad in the garage/game room unable to stay in the room due to bites. The flowers for my mom were very thoughtful and appreciated. Location and view to the busy road was disappointing.
