Reviews
We love this river house
5/5 This is our third stay and we will be back again! All the bedrooms are very comfortable and the amenities are plentiful. You can’t beat this spot on the river. Our children have a blast tubing and swimming. The adults love winding down the day in the hot tub. The owner is very nice and responsive to whatever we need. This one is a gem for sure!
Clean and Inviting!
5/5 First time staying at this property and it did not disappoint. Upon walking in felt very inviting and relaxing. Enjoyed all the amenities … tubes available to use in the river, cornhole/bags were fun, also enjoyed the pool table, shuffleboard, arcade game, hot tub, and the back deck is fantastic! That was our favorite space. Washer dryer seemed brand new. All 7 of us slept well and felt right at home.
Home is located in a nice quiet area only 10 minutes from grocery shopping. You’d never know you’re that close to town. One of our trips back to the house we saw a bear in the woods very near the home! Also saw deer across the river nibbling on plants.
Lots to do in the area. Many great restaurants close by (River Street Tavern, The Roof); explored Blue Ridge (2nd Story Entertainment minigolf, Southern Charm, shops); Amicalola Falls and a day trip to the Georgia Aquarium (whale sharks & manta rays!!). But our favorite thing to do was sit on the back deck and enjoy the scenery and family time ❤️
We have stayed at several different properties over the years in different states. You won’t regret staying at this one. Would definitely come back!!
Great home for family vacation.
5/5 Our family was celebrating my grandson’s graduation and we couldn’t have chosen a better home/location. Highly recommend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and for your kindness.

Relaxing Getaway
5/5 We really enjoyed the relaxation. Being on the river & relaxing in the hot tub was perfect. My husband and I enjoyed the long weekend my our three children & both sets of parents. Cabin was stocked with EVERYTHING you need. Just pack clothes food & enjoy.
Thank you,
The Whites, Paynes & Roudebushs
