Our family, children and grandchildren spent a wonderful week at these cabins on the river. The cabins, location and the grounds surpassed our expectations. Being right on the river is so peaceful and serene but there was also so much for the kids to do. They enjoyed fishing, floating down the river and kayaking. It was a great time and we will definitely return!
Our family vacation was a huge hit this year, because everyone loved this property. It is exactly as pictured. It is beautiful, from being able to hear the river, swimming, tubing, and all the wildlife to spending quality time with family with very little TV. Amy was such a great host and itâs so easy to communicate with about check in and other details. If you havenât visited the Ocoee river, it is something to experience. Thank you, Amy!
Cabins were very comfortable and clean. Lots to see and the river is right by your feet. Parking is not steep like others around the area with plenty of room for 4-5 cars. Amy was also great amwith communication and provide exciting places to visit. Overall wonderful experience to be out there with family and friends.
Everything about our stay was just as described in the listing. Amy was an amazing host and very responsive to any questions we had. The house is at the end of a dead end road and falls right at the bend of the river. The sounds are something I wish I could have bottled up and brought home. So relaxing. Would definitely book again.
The pictures donât do the views justice. Beautiful property with a ton of space inside and out. 10/10 recommend. Host was very nice and responsive before and during the stay.
We had a wonderful time staying here. Itâs tucked away right on the river as the pictures portray, which is beautiful, but if you do not handle winding, mountain roads well, you might want to rethink this location. It would be hard to pass it up though as it is incredible just as listed. The owner was easy to communicate with and attentive to details.
There were 14 of us staying for a family weekend. Our first visit to Elijay. The twin cabins were perfect for us - great communication with the Owner, easy checkin, clean cabins, well stocked for a weekend stay, beautiful inside and out.
Our family enjoyed this property - a memorable time. We fished and watched the deer and beavers on the river. Houses had everything we needed. Communication with Amy was great.
We own four cabins in the Coosawattee River Resort, these two, Trout Trap - https://www.vrbo.com/109998 and River Lodge on Fir - https://www.vrbo.com/583476. All the cabins are catered to large groups and are located directly on the river.
The word âEllijayâ is an Anglicized form of a Cherokee word, perhaps meaning "place of green things" or "many waters." This would make a lot of sense considering this is the place where the Ellijay and Cartecay Rivers meet forming the Coosawattee River. The Coosawattee and Mountaintown come together and flow into Carterâs Lake: A gorgeous recreational lake developed by the Corps of Engineers. This region abounds with wildlife, including deer, wild turkeys, bears, eagles, and hawks. The Rivers are a favorite for trout fishermen or feel free to our stocked fishing pond within the resort.
