Whether you are looking to participate in some whitewater excitement or plan on just kicking back and enjoying the view, Rushing River Lodge will be sure to please. On one of the most beautiful stretches of the Cartecay River, this cabin has 350' of gorgeous river frontage all while privately situated on over 3 acres of land. With a fire pit complete with seating and a picnic table to enjoy a meal right at water's edge, you could spend hours here, enjoying the spectacular scenery and listening to the rush of the cool mountain waters.

The large covered porch with seating and dining space also provides a great place to take in the sights and sounds of the river regardless of the weather. Inside, you will have all the comforts of home including a huge wood burning fireplace for those chilly fall and winter evenings.

Saturday morning I emailed about a late check out on Monday since I’m a VIP Guest. I never received a response, so we were rushed checking out especially given the icy roads that morning

You should have received a auto response to your email stating that emails are not monitored on the weekends and to give us a call since we answer phones 24/7. Regardless, sorry this was an issue, we certainly would have done what we could to allow a later checkout.

I vacation in the Blue Ridge area 3 to 4 times a year and always stay in Mountain Oasis Cabins. Rushing River is a fantastic cabin.

I don't know where to start, we were amazed when we stepped in the door. We all walked through each level of the cabin to look at its beauty. Waking up to the river was so relaxing, it felt like having your own tranquil oasis. My two friends stated this was the best sleep they have ever had. The beds were super soft and the water was just the right temperature. Overall we are planning our next trip for the summer 2021!

We had a great week at Rushing River Lodge despite a few set backs here and there. The cabin is beautiful and huge, much larger than I expected and a bit too large for our family but gorgeous nontheless. The beds and sofas were comfortable and there are plenty of extra blankets, bean bags and cots to use if need be. Each room also had portable plug in heaters to make sure you stayed warm. We loved the large wrap around porch on the main floor and also took advantage of the other two sitting areas on different levels. WiFi was 5G and worked great. The satellite channel selection was meh but the options of Netflix, Hulu, SlingTV etc made up for that. The cabin had several books to read but didnt have any board games or puzzles which would have been nice. We didnt enjoy the hot tub, however, it was large and clean. The property itself was easily located by gps with an exception of one turn at the end of the road, but thats clearly explained in the email you receive to NOT use gps but use the directions provided to you. We were very close to downtown Ellijay and many local apple orchards and stores. Blue Ridge is only 15 mins or so away. Honestly, even with the few set backs here and there, our overall stay was wonderful. The area of Ellijay is so welcoming and friendly. We will be returning in the spring for another get away vacation!!

The cabin was beautiful, we enjoyed the fireplace, jacuzzi, view thru the many windows, glass doors and the sound and beauty of the river. We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation that included a visit to Helen for October Fest, a visit to Mercier Orchards in Blue Ridge and the apple festival in Gilmore River Park.

Rushing River Lodge had everything my family needed and more. They thought of everything - enough seats and sofas for all to be comfortable. The picture shows only 1 sofa but there is actually two new big ones that are amazing to watch movies with the huge TV. I also love the sounds of the rushing river and the big kitchen with all the pots and pans you will ever need! My family loved the clean sparkling Jacuzzi, making smores next to the river and fishing. From the beginning to the end, it was easy, and the ladies were so friendly when I called to get more information. We definitely will be back! Thank you once again for the excellent house and customer service!

It was a very nice cabin, what I expected. Each staff member I had contact with was friendly, patient and handled my questions professionally. The cabin was nicely furnished with ample necessities. Love the cabin view right on the water... we had no issues and enjoyed this visit. Would recommend and visit this cabin again.
