Our actual address is 92 Edgewater Drive Ellijay GA 30540. Our cabin is in a gated community of thousands of acres called Coosawattee River Resort- visit their website online for further info and insight into a great resort property with something for Everyone! 10 minute drive to downtown Ellijay which has restaurants, pubs, coffee and wine tasting shops. Blue Ridge is 20 min. north and has a bigger downtown. Fort Mountain is about 30 min. away and offers hiking and a lake with boats to rent- an easy to walk nature trail around the lake for all. A more rugged walk to a very pretty waterfall. Amicolola Falls is a pretty drive and about 45 min. and is fun with the beautiful falls- a hiking trail up the mountain or 600 + steps up the falls!! A delicious buffet at the top awaits if you can make it! Carter's Lake is very close with day use areas and a marina with rental boats. You are very close to Walmart, grocery store, Starbucks, Ruby Tuesday, Longhorn etc etc. Can go white water rafting in Blue Ridge or in Ellijay- places downtown will have info!
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2005
About the owner: Clay and Janet Carver- owners and renters for over 10 years. It is fun to have our own place in Ellijay where we always relax and feel like we truly get away from it all--- but its only an hour plus from Atlanta. We love going into downtown Ellijay to shop and eat. Our daughters have enjoyed the cabin at every age. Tubing is a blast in the summer but winter is fun with the fire and hot tub. We hope you enjoy it too!
Why the Owner Chose Ellijay, GA, USA:
We rented the cabin next door (from VRBO)- and fell in love with the area. River Edge cabin is less than an hour from our house and we have enjoyed it immensely with family and friends. We love tubing and hot tubbing and the different relaxing atmosphere of Ellijay and being on a river. The kids have invited many friends over the years who just love it. Perfect for a girls' weekend- no one wants to leave and they always ask if we rent it out- now we do! Have had Thanksgiving there as well as Mother's Day celebrations and family reunions. Good guys' getaway with golfing in Ellijay, hiking, tubing and also football and grilling. It is a fun relaxing easy change of place and pace.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
Being right on the Coosawattee River in a beautiful peaceful gated community is very special and unique. Guests can tube to the deck stairs and be home- then drive just a few miles to go get the car. Another key benefit is the easy drive to and from our cabin- some roads in mountainous areas can be dangerous or way far back- ours is easy to get to. If it's wintertime- outdoor firepit and sitting by the river in blankets is a great time to visit and just talk. The cabin itself is decorated in 'mountain style'. Another unique benefit is the many decks- in front, upstairs, screened porch and out by the river- to read, visit etc. The motif of the cabin is all fish, moose, bear and everyone loves it- all wood floors and walls give the cabin the fresh mountain smell. The property is also flat from the road to the river so it's great for kids and adults alike- lots of room outside and in. There are great restaurants (even Starbucks) within 5 miles or less- a very cute downtown Ellijay- with shopping, antiquing and wine tasting. For the outdoorsy type- there is Fort Mountain, Carters Lake, Lake Blue Ridge, Amicolola Falls, Cartecay River_ all within 30 minutes. Golf and tennis also. Blue Ridge, GA is right up the road and has a larger downtown and the Blue Ridge Train trip which a lot of people enjoy. Lots and lots to do if you plan ahead or you can just do nothing (which is what we usually do!) We usually cook great meals and just chill after tubing- play frisbee and make s'mores. For those who like wine tasting- we enjoy Cartecay Vineyards- 6 miles east from downtown Ellijay.
