About this property

Riverfront, loud rapids, on tubing path - easy access (neighboring River's Echo)

Newly listed 'sister property' to River's Echo (VRBO#1151964). Walk out directly on the Coosawattee River, you'll love the calming sound of the river both day and night. The last 1/2 mile of roads to the cabin are gravel, so even though you're only an hour or so north of the city, you'll feel a world away from life's 'normal' stress.

There is a large deck overlooking the beautiful Coosawattee River. Enjoy meals on the large screened in porch while being entertained by the abundant wildlife both in the wooded yard and in the river. It's not uncommon to see deer playing in the river or crossing through the yard. Let your relaxation continue as you build your own campfire by the river. Terrace level patio features a log swing and cushioned wicker seating area, as well as a 6-person hot tub - perfect way to end an evening if you choose.

Main floor features a living room with a gas fireplace, leather sofa, leather club chair with ottoman and 2 upholstered high-back recliners. Oh and there is also a 65-inch TV. Kitchen with black honed granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances is stocked with all the culinary tools you'll need - coffee maker, pots and pans, cutlery, bottle opener, etc. Large Master bedroom features King log bed with high-quality mattress for a perfect night's sleep. Master Bath has whirlpool bath and separate shower.

Upper level has loft area and second Master bedroom which also has a fabulous King size bed. Walk out of this bedroom onto a small private covered porch.

Terrace level is the 'fun' zone, featuring a large seating area with 65 inch TV, board games, puzzles and books. There is also a regulation Foosball table if you're feeling competitive. Bedroom with 2 Queen log beds and a full bathroom.

Everything was great at this property. Essential needs were provided like, foil, garbage bags, dish soap, some spices, hair dryer etc.The property is in such a great area. The water flowing in front of the property was so nice to just sit by the fire or on the deck and watch the deer come to drink. They are quite friendly and came right up to the deck.

This is our third time we have stayed here. For our family it couldn't be in a better location. One sister lives in the neighborhood, another flies in from Florida, and we drive down from Michigan. You cant beat the view from the front porch. Its perfect.

We love this cabin ! The outdoor spaces are so nice and the water literally right outside the door ! My favorite thing is to get up early , grab a cup of coffee , and watch the deer play in the creek ! What a show ! The three floors work out great for 3 couples to each have their privacy but group spaces to enjoy together. It wasn’t quite as clean as usual with dusty furniture , crumbs on the floor, and food left in fridge . But , overall we loved it !

Best cabin in Elijay!

The sound of the peaceful river rapids and the view from this cabin can't be beaten. The fire pit and the hot tub are in perfect locations to soak it all in. The cabin was well appointed for all of our needs. The comfortable beds made for a great night's rest! Would definitely love to stay here again!
