Wonderful property next to the river. We enjoyed eating breakfast on the screened in porch and sitting on the deck with the gas fire pit in the evening. We would definitely recommend staying here. The house has all the comforts of home and it's in a very quiet neighborhood. I guess the only downside is the extremely windy mountain road driving to and from Helen.

This is the second time we stayed at this property. Each visit was peaceful, relaxing, and comfortable. We found plenty to do with a twenty minute or less ride. The property is fully furnished with extras (k-cups and toiletries come to mind) available to you. Checking in is a breeze. The neighborhood is quiet and anyone we saw was friendly. The property definitely earns five stars.

Love this house, property, and location!

We were there with our motorcycles and there is nothing better than after a long day of riding coming back and relaxing on either the huge screen porch or the deck overlooking the river. Perfectly located with everything you could possibly need for a fun relaxing vacation.

Spring break trip

We were very comfortable and had everything we needed. The property was even better than expected. So many nice details. We appreciated the extra blankets and pillows as it was pretty cold during our stay. Would definitely book again if back in the area.

We love Hiawassee! The river house & neighborhood are beautiful. 20-25min from Helen. Very curvy roads going to Helen (but to be expected in the mountains!)

Beautiful house and location. We celebrated our twins 29 birthday with their spouses. The house was perfect as it was directly on the river. We enjoyed sitting on the screen porch listening to the river. Also great location for hiking and checking out wineries. We will be back.

Extremely clean, comfortable and very well stocked with everything you need. Beds are very comfortable, living room is so cozy. The back porch was beautiful and the deck on the river stream was so peaceful and perfect. Highly recommend. The Chatuge Lake is breathtaking. Helen was fun. The area is just beautiful.

About the host

Hosted by The Chapmans

Host profile image
Welcome to the TYNMAN Riverside Lodge! We purchased a home that's been in our family for years. My husband's parents decided to move to a different part of Georgia so we bought this jewel in the mountains. We were so excited to be offered the opportunity to own property in Hiawassee.

Why they chose this property

Hiawassee is a quaint town in the North Georgia Mountains only a couple of hours from Atlanta. A great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

What makes this property unique

Relax on the screened back porch on the swing or adirondack chairs. Have coffee while listening to the river. Sit on the front porch rocking chairs while reading your favorite book. Refresh and recharge in Hiawassee!
