Great little cabin. Has everything you need and more. Great spot to either hit the river to cool off or do a little fishing or just relax. Kids loved the loft area and definitely enjoyed the river. Very quiet and clean location.

Can’t say enough amazing things about this cabin. By far the nicest in this vicinity, inside and out very clean. Very dog friendly patio, what a stress reliever for pet owners. Sounds of the river takes you away to a distant place in your mind from the everyday worries.

Our family of 5 plus our golden retriever had an amazing stay in June! Hanging out all day in the river, fishing sun up to sun down (even though we caught nothing - it was still a blast), the hot tub, s’mores on the firepit and grilling lunch & dinner were a huge hit. My boys played kickball on the turf and games upstairs in the loft. The stairs are more for younger or fit adults (I made it!), and our 8/6/4 year olds loved being upstairs. This cabin was amazing and we look forward to coming back again. We went to Mercier Farms to pick berries and DT Blue Ridge. Once the sun went down the bugs came out, but we loved seeing the fireflies in the forest across the way. We couldn’t imagine NOT staying at this cabin on the river. We will be back to stay again! Thanks so much for a memorable summer vacation.

Relaxing family weekend
We loved our stay for the weekend at this beautiful home. It had everything we needed. Enjoyed the fire pit on the deck at night, throwing a fishing rod in the river right off the deck during the day, traveling to Ellijay just 5 mins away. Communication from the owner was wonderful from checkin to checkout. We would definitely stay again.

Short stay, long lasting memories
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Riverside Retreat. The cabin is well maintained and decorated, and it felt private while being close to town. We fished, roasted smores around the fire pit and ventured out for food and drink in downtown Ellijay. Owners were very responsive regarding any questions we had. Would definitely recommend!

A week getaway on the river!
My husband and I have been coming to the Blue Ridge mountains for over 20 years, we usually have our kids and now Gand kids in tow… this time it was Just us and our pups. The cabin is beautiful and location is amazing! I am very particular when I rent cabins…. And this cabin delivered on every level.
Thank you so much - we had a wonderful time.

We spent the week here for Spring Break and it didn’t disappoint! The cabin is updated and beautiful, the location on the river is perfection!! The prompt response to questions with the homeowner was a plus. Close to everything. Would love to visit during summer to float in the river and catch fish.
We will be back:)

The description of the property was spot-on. We (4 adults, 2 children) spent Thanksgiving/Birthday week and had a wonderful time. Beautiful and relaxing location, everything you need was provided. Communication with the property owner was instant from the beginning to end. We will definitely be returning.

Relaxation at Riverside
The location of this property right on the water is the appeal. The sounds of the river combined with the fireplace were a Thanksgiving relaxation win.
The property is within six miles of grocery, Walgreens, fast food, etc. Very convenient.
The home itself has obviously been updated to it's benefit, and makes for a comfortable stay.
