Riverhouse | Ellijay, GA

Enjoy restful solitude on the Cartecay River right outside the back door. Buffered by the GA wilderness area, The Riverhouse sits on a small rapid with large rocks available to sit and just watch the river go by. The river is a certified GA trout stream and a few rainbows have been caught and grilled! The House also offers easy access to drop off points for tubing down the river right to your backyard. The Riverhouse could best be described as elegant with a mountain flair. Four bedrooms, 4.5 bath house sits right on the Cartecay River with spacious decks on three levels. Jacuzzi, widescreen high def TV, DVD, a complete stereo system, and wireless internet offers plenty of chances to get away and unwind. And it's only 1.5 hours from downtown Atlanta. The wintertime features gas fireplaces in each master suite, one on the main level, and one in the basement.

Very nice property

This property was as advertised. It’s a beautiful location and the stream and property is beautiful.Only issues we ran into was it was difficult to control overnight temperatures as we normally like 69 but thermostat automatically turned temps up to 73 after 11:30 even though we set to 69 before bedtime. Would like more privacy blinds in the main and upstairs bedrooms. Game room downstairs is well stocked with games and pool table was great. Didn’t use the hot tub but noted the temperature was cool when we arrived. Maybe the tenant was required to turn up temperature when arriving. The property management team was great and came out to turn on all fireplaces within a hour after we placed the request.

This property is so comfortable with 4 bedrooms and 4 and 1/2 bathrooms. My only recommendation is that the mattresses upstairs are not very comfortable nor or the pillows in the basement suite.
