Our stay at the Cartecay River Tails cabin was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how cozy and comfortable the space was. The decor was charming (loved the Americana vibe), and the cabin felt like a true home away from home. Every detail seemed to be designed for relaxation, and we slept wonderfully each night. The highlights were the different outdoor porches on each level. Plus the Jacuzzi and access to the river were great! Great service!

Absolutely lovely! The cabin was just lovely! It had everything we needed and more.

Absolutely lovely! The cabin was just lovely! It had everything we needed and more. Very comfortable. The location was great. Very quite and peaceful. The sound of the rushing water over rocks in the river was so relaxing. It felt like we were worlds away from everything while at the cabin however we were very close to restaurants, tubing, hiking and shops. We visited a nearby state park where we hiked to an absolutely beautiful waterfall. Absolutely loved everything about our stay and will definitely be back! Team members were excellent. Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly.

Enjoyed the stay, but was disappointed that was unable to relax in the whirlpool.

Enjoyed the stay, but was disappointed that was unable to relax in the whirlpool. On day of our arrival whirlpool/hot tub did not work. The water was hot, but the jets did not work. Called service, next morning and service man came , but was unable to get them to work. Thought that maybe the pump was weak. Said he did not know how to fix it and , would probably need the Spa people to come look at it. We were there for 4 days and it never was fixed, was quite disappointed.
