Terrace level patio features a 6-person hot tub - perfect way to end an evening if you choose.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful cabin. Everything was so thought out and we had everything we needed to prepare meals. Such. Wonderful host. Very attentive.
The host was very responsive from the time of booking all the way through checkout. The cabins were nice and perfect for our families. Would love to come back in the summer!
Everything was absolutely perfect. Hosts were very curteous and communication was great. Cabin had everything we needed plus some things we didn't realize we needed. Very pet friendly and exceptionally clean. Plenty of room in a beautiful setting. We will definitely be back!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful mountain cabin on the river. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how peaceful and scenic the property was. The sound of the river flowing nearby made it incredibly relaxing.The cabin itself was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. It had everything we needed for a perfect getaway, and you could tell a lot of care had gone into making the space welcoming for guests. We especially loved spending time outside enjoying the river and the quiet surroundings.This was the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat or a cozy place to spend time with family, this cabin is truly special. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful mountain escape!
The host was incredible! Super responsive and welcoming. The cabin itself was beautiful. Amazingly comfortable with lots of amenities and space for many people. I picked this place because the hosts were well rated and there many high reviews and I can see why! It lived up to all expectations. It feels very private even being next to another cabin. The hottub and firepit are awesome!
I usually don't review things, but this property deserved a review. This VRBO was one of the best ones I have stayed in. The views and sounds, impeccable!! The couches and chairs VERY comfortable and classy. Large TV screens in all rooms and very comfortable beds. Large decks all around and decks off every room with awesome comfortable chairs and views. Lots of seating areas everywhere. Nice game room downstairs, loved the jacuzzi!The kitchen was well stocked, great for a foodie chef to cook in. There is a gas stove, and the fridge has filtered water and automatic ice maker. Only downside was the plastic spatulas and lots of plastic glasses (you know what they say about plastic). Using plastic spatulas in cooking is a big no no. The pans were a little worn Teflon, but stainless steel or titanium pans could fix that problem easily. But everything else was top notch. We loved our stay. Ellijay is a cute town, and we also went to Blueridge which is even cuter. The Roos vineyard is exceptionally classy with great views, and they now have a restaurant which is very good. The wine was great too.
Rivers Echo exceeded our expectations. Location was great. It felt like home as soon as we walked in. The porches were perfect for visiting and kept us dry during the frequent rain. We loved having a fire at the flick of a switch. The house had everything needed for our stay. Highly recommended
We had yet another amazing family vacation here! The property is beautiful, the river was flowing and the wildlife was amazing! Even the dog got in on the swimming :)
This cozy cabin is perfection! Beautiful scenery with views/sounds of the river, wildlife, and a quiet community. The cabin itself is fully stocked, the owners have thought of every amenity (and more) that makes this rental feel like home! This was our second trip and we look forward to booking again! 10/10!!
They have it all! Everything was perfect! We loved it and will definitely be back. The host was very helpful about everything :) The unit was well stocked in the kitchen, bathrooms, games, hot tub, you name it and it was there.Thanks!!!!
