Property Description
Welcome to your private slice of North Georgia mountain paradise! This charming log cabin sits directly along the beautiful Cartecay River, offering authentic mountain character, privacy, and unrestricted riverfront recreation. From the moment you arrive, the peaceful sounds of the river create a relaxing retreat. Inside, the inviting open living area features a beautiful rock, vented fireplace, perfect for gathering after a day on the water. The home offers 3 bedrooms, including a spacious main-level master suite with French doors opening to the screened porch. Upstairs, a generous loft bedroom and bath provide comfortable space for guests, family, or a private getaway. Enjoy the expansive wrap-around porch, including a screened rear section ideal for morning coffee, family meals, or relaxing beside the river. A large picnic table creates the perfect outdoor gathering space, while the deck's sunken hot tub offers a peaceful place to unwind beneath the mountain skies. The property is surrounded by natural beauty, including rhododendrons, mountain laurel, multiple fern species, mature hardwoods, and thoughtfully preserved landscaping. A long, private driveway lined with hundreds of daffodils provides a spectacular spring display. Just steps from the cabin, a natural path leads to your own riverfront dock. Enjoy fishing, kayaking, swimming, tubing, or simply relaxing beside the water. Trout are released by the DNR upstream, making this an appealing location for fishing enthusiasts. An adjoining lot is included, offering additional privacy and flexibility for parking, storage, sheds, or recreational uses, subject to applicable requirements. A large stand-up crawl space provides valuable storage for outdoor gear and belongings. With no restrictions and short-term rentals allowed, this property can serve as a second home or income-producing rental. Experience the sights, sounds, and serenity of the Cartecay River and start making unforgettable mountain memories.
