We stayed 7 nights in this relaxing get a way. The home was fully stocked with cooking utensils to shampoo and kleenex! We brought food in from Tomatoe House. I think we went there at least 5 times. Used the grill. Played games and cards on the deck, swung by the fire pit and walked the river.

House was immaculate. Was not aware that the owner was only feet away. Riverbank was not cleaned up enough to fish. Felt like everything we did was being watched. At times, the owner was making too much noise for us to enjoy porch time.

This is a great location. The hosts thought about all the details, and they were prompt and easy to work with. What I loved most about our stay was the back porch overlooking the river. We spent hours there, talking, recharging, remembering, anticipating, planning. I highly recommend you give this place a shot if your looking to get away, be able to stay at the cabin, and have a refreshing time.

The house is immaculately well kept and the view is stunning! The decor is beautiful and cozy. It truly felt as though we were staying at a treasured friend’s home. Details throughout the home were very thoughtful. After the drive, it was such a treat to discover frosted mugs in the freezer to enjoy as we grilled out. We loved having coffee on the deck, wading in the river, and reading on the swing. We did not want to leave and will be back!

Stayed but didn't

During our trip up a terrible storm blew through the upper north Georgia area knocking out power, downing trees and causing general chaos. The owner gave us a heads up on the happenings and helped us graciously through the problems we encountered. We really appreciate you Bruce! Thank you for all you did!

Perfect and peaceful

This property is amazing. The house was very clean and had every amenity we could want or need. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch area, on comfy and clean outdoor furniture, listening to the sound of the rushing water. We loved this place. The owner lives next door-we met him and he is a very nice and helpful host.

Best Cabin Ever!

This cabin was immaculate, extremely well equipped, everything worked perfectly, even all the light switches were labeled. The floor plan with 2 master suites was perfect for 2 couples. We enjoyed the large porch overlooking the river and our host, Bruce, told us to look for the family of ducklings and a pair of bald eagles. Dahlonega is a cute town to visit and we did several hikes in the area. We can’t recommend this cabin enough and certainly hope to return!
