Julie, Thank you for your nice review. I’m glad you liked our home. I hate that the weather wasn’t the best, but it sounded like you still had a good weekend in Dahlonega. I hope you’re come back again. You’re always welcome at River Lily. Patti

Thank you, Bailey. I appreciate your review and kind words. It was nice talking with you and you’re welcome to come back to the River Lily!
What a wonderful stay at the River Lily!! Patti is an amazing host and took the time to text us to make sure we had everything we needed. Our family of four stayed for a long weekend and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. We immediately felt right at home. It is even better than pictured online. This home is completely remodeled! It was immaculately clean and had comfy beds for a great nights sleep. The kitchen has everything you need to cook at home. But you are also close enough to town to go out and eat at the wonderful restaurants in Dahlonega (highly recommend Shenanigans Restaurant) We also had pizza delivered one night while we sat out at the fire pit which is next to the river. I especially enjoyed sitting out on the back deck reading a book and enjoying nature. We can’t wait to book our next stay at the River Lily when we take our next trip to Dahlonega!! Thank you Patti for sharing your beautiful home with us!!

About the host
Hosted by Patti Corl
I am a native of Dahlonega, but moved away after college. I live in Franklin Tennessee, with my husband Tim and we have two grown children. Dahlonega will always be my hometown, and I am excited to share our river house with you.
Why they chose this property
The property was bought in June 2025 and renovated. We began sharing it with others in November 2025. I chose this property because it’s a beautiful wooded lot, on a scenic river, that we can fish in and actually access, in addition to enjoying the river view.
What makes this property unique
It truly is a cute, cozy cottage with river frontage, access into the river, huge trees, and privacy.
