Nice, modestly-priced property. Very clean and hosts were very nice. Not overly large, but great for a couple or small family!
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Oct, 2023
Thanks Steve, it was a pleasure to meet you both. Glad you enjoyed the cabin, hope you can visit again in the summer and enjoy a day on beautiful Carters Lake !
We had a great stay in this cabin. The view was beautiful with perfect sunrises and a short drive was good hiking and a beautiful sunset.
The cabin, although a bit outdated decor, was very clean and supplied everything we needed.

Thank you for your kind review, the quiet location and beautiful lake views make Carters Lake Marina a peaceful escape. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon !
We were recently in Ellijay and decided to stay in a cabin versus hotel. It was a beautiful location, and very clean cabin. Check in process was very easy. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next weekend and upgraded to a luxury cabin. We will be back in the summer with the family and will bring our boat!
Was very disappointed. The cabin is very outdated. The one bathroom needs new shower head an sink faucet. The living room furniture was very uncomfortable. It’s overpriced for such old furnishings . 185.00 a night. Have rented much larger cabins with updates much cheaper @150.00 a night.
Owners/managers were very attentive. Great spot on the lake with a great view. The bathroom shower, while clean, could use a new faucet, drain collar and shower head. Overall we had a great stay and would come back.
Thanks Shashi, glad you and your family had a nice stay, we will take a look at that shower.
Hope you got to visit all the hiking trails we talked about and enjoyed the local towns of Ellijay and Jasper where there are lots of good restaurants and shopping.
