Spend the day kayaking, tubing, or trout fishing along the Cartecay and Ellijay Rivers, or enjoy a peaceful walk by the Mountaintown and Fightingtown Creeks, where many of our cabins are tucked away. For those who love hiking and nature, nearby trails through the Rich Mountain Wilderness offer scenic views and quiet woodland paths.
