What’s New at the Sanctuary…


Church without walls:
The sanctuary has a beautiful 300-seat outdoor amphitheatre that is a perfect venue for religious services or weddings.  Call for rental information.

Ellijay Wildlife Rehab Santuary made a big impression at the GA. Science Teachers' Association Conference - Click Here

Our NEW Welcome Center/Nature store
At the base of the entrance into the sanctuary is our new Welcome Center and parking area where you can wait in comfort for your tour and browse through our nature store/gift center for crafts  from local area artisans.  T-shirts, refreshments, souvenirs and camp items are available for purchase.  Proceeds go toward the care and feeding of the animals here.

Ten new tent sites & five Teepees 18ft to 24ft
across!

Seven new sites, courtesy of Eagle Scout, Blake Tiger, Troup #429, can fit up to six-person tents.  This brings our current total number of tent sites to ten at $15 per night.  Overnight campers can also experience how our Native American friends lived by staying in one of our six authentic teepees at $50 per night. Perfect for scouting and school groups.  These roomy teepees can sleep up to 14 people comfortably and are just a few feet from hot showers and the kitchen. The view from our teepees cannot be beat!  NOTE- all overnight camp-outs include a $50 private tour as part of your $100 overnight PACKAGE DEAL.


Don’t Forget our Fabulous Family Days!
On the second Sundays of each month from June through September, we offer our visitors a little extra.  In addition to guided tours each hour from noon to 3p.m., guests are treated to a complimentary wildlife presentation in our outdoor amphitheater conducted by the Sanctuary’s Director himself.   

For those who want a TRULY WILD experience…

Come to a FRIDAY FEEDING FRENZY!!  Each Friday at 4:00 p.m. guests will be treated to a behind-the-scenes tour unlike any other around!   Get an insider’s look at what it takes to care for the wildest of our wild animals.  The highlight is watching feeding time for our bobcats, cougars and bears – Oh, MY!!  Admission is $20 per person, but half-price to overnight campers and kids 15 and under.  Not recommended for very young children.  By reservation only.

Five New Bunk Houses Completed!
We are thrilled to announce the completion of five cozy cabins for campers who like nature but prefer not to sleep too close to it.  These cabins are located only 50 feet from our pavilion which houses a kitchen and hot showers.  They also feature fantastic views of the north Georgia mountains!

We now have seven new tent sites available thanks to the hard work of Eagle Scout Troop # from Alpharetta.  These sites can fit up to six-person tents and bring our total number of tent sites to ten.

Over night campers can also experience how our Native American friends lived by Staying in one of our six authentic teepees! Perfect for scouting and school groups. These roomy teepees sleep up to 14 people comfortably and are just a few feet from Hot showers and a kitchen.  The view from our teepees cannot be beat!
