We loved this cabin and the area. It was peaceful and relaxing. Our experience was great overall. We did have to request directions a few days before. We were told you would send them one week in advance. We have no complaints. This whole experience was great.

I have already shared on FB & sent 2 referrals your way ?????? Best Cabin we have ever stayed in… Clean well stocked … booking was easy & searching for what all I wanted on my trip was so easy to navigate on your website… Best Website I have ever used…. Have been visiting North Georgia for the past 16 years ?????? The waterfalls, parks & towns are the best. Vrbo has been my go to in the past… Because you are an independent Company I feel you have more at stake so that makes you provide top services

A nice place to enjoy the river and firepit.

A nice place to enjoy the river and firepit. The home very clean with many accessories to cook and clean with. The drawbacks and the cabin rentals are close to one another so you will have neighbors on both sides. The road to the cabin is over a mile of dirt, gravel, twist and turns up and down mountains. The walls from bedrooms to other rooms very thin so you hear everything. Everything went very well

Everyone was great except the cleaning lady.

Everyone was great except the cleaning lady. She wasn’t warm and welcoming like everyone else I spoke to. I was literally in my car about to put it in drive and she says you know check out time was 10. It was just a few minutes after 10 and clearly I’m leaving.

Exactly what we wanted - plus a bit more! We were looking for a place by a river to just unwind after lots of stressful life events . What a nice place to spend a few days away from the craziness! This property was beautiful...the inside was amazing. Check in was a breeze and the property is perched right at the waters edge, just as promised with a large porch overlooking. The place was absolutely spotless, truly neat as a pin, AC worked ideally and the kitchen had full size appliances and everything you could ever need. We spent our mornings with coffee listening to the soothing sound of the water and our afternoons floating on rafts and sunning on the big rock! This cabin has everything you need in order to “escape”to the Georgia Mtns, including an outdoor fireplace with a gorgeous view. Highly recommend this river retreat. very responsive

I have already sent the link to a friend!! That's how positive I am about it. There were only two of us so we only used about half of the cabin, but it would be great if we ever went with others. Everyone was very friendly & helpful!!

We are already looking forward to planning another stay. Our experience was fantastic. It was very easy to find based on the information provided. The cabin was clean and upon our arrival all the lights were on with music playing waiting for us to come in.
