ALMOST 100% happy

Property very clean...sleep accomodation were great...kitchen was great...parking was great...fire pit and hot tub were awesome. All around a great set-up. I would have 1 suggestion. The benches at the table are extremely flimsy. As an insurance agent, I would suggest to replace them with chairs that are the correct height. The existing chairs are short for the table height, and the benches are VERY unsteady, and don't feel comfortable. One of my team members almost fell twice at them. Other than that...a great rental!!

Beautiful Home in the Ellijay Mountains

Property was in a beautiful location. Quiet and peaceful. Lots of room to spread out in including a game room and play and exercise area. Beds were comfortable. Property manager was very prompt with answering questions. Hot tub was relaxing. Nice wrap around deck to sit on and enjoy nature. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful stay!

Our group had a great stay at casa cartecay for the week. The house was stocked with everything we needed (soap, garbage bags etc). The bedrooms were spacious and decorated nicely and so comfortable. All the games were a hit with the kids as well as the playground and basketball goal. We could go for walks each day to the creek. The property manager responded immediately with any questions and concerns. My 3 year old said the best part of the trip was riding her scooter on the giant wrap around porch. Will definitely go back!

2 families with 6 small kids

We met with our close friends and their kids at this cabin for an extended weekend visit, and we had a great time! We were 4 adults and 6 children total, ages 2-6. The setup of the house was great for us and exactly what we were looking for: fun at the house without going anywhere else. The playset and basketball goal were hits, as well as the wrap around porch, creek, and hot tub. We also prepared all of our meals there utilizing the kitchen and grill. The property manager was extremely helpful with answering inquiries before we booked, and with being available while we were there. Would recommend for young families!

A gathering with friends

We had a wonderful weekend in this lovely mountain home! Communication was very good prior to check in. The kitchen was well stocked with any needed items, the the rooms were a nice size and comfortable. Although we did not use it, the basement has a lot to offer! Ping pong, exercise equipment and a nice sitting area to watch tv. We will definitely look to rebook this property on our next visit to Elijay!!
