Our stay at the river cabin could not have been more enjoyable! It is one of the best homes we've ever stayed at during our travels. The cabin was very comfortable and cozy. The location is perfect. On the river with a large deck for relaxing and enjoying our afternoons. Close to historic downtown and the wineries but tucked away so you have privacy. Everything we needed was there. The bed was comfortable. If you want to stay in and cook the kitchen has everything you need. The host was great. Very easy check in and communication made everything super simple. We definitely plan on staying at the cabin again and recommend anyone coming to Dahlonega to do so also. Thanks for the hospitality!

Great property in the woods, right on the river. And the location was far enough away, but close to town and everywhere we wanted and needed to go. It rained most of the time we were there, so we didn't get to enjoy the firepit, or sit out on the huge deck. It's a cute little cabin. It was quite comfortable for my husband and I, but any more people, it would be a bit crowded - especially if stuck inside due to rain. Anything that we could've needed was supplied - fans, small kitchen appliances, utensils, dishes, pots and pans, towels, linens. There were even some games, puzzles, and fishing poles in case you wanted to fish off of the deck. We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. For the amount we paid, it was comparable and so much better than staying in a hotel. You can't get that view or privacy in a hotel.(Especially if you come in after dark, the last couple of miles to the property, don't rely on your GPS. Have the map handy and read everything the host provides before you go. I had already mapped it out before we got there, so our GPS was a backup. It would tell us we had reached our destination and it was what looked like a small gravel "inlet drive" on the side of the main road that only went about a foot before going straight into the trees, down the hill! From what I can tell, I think that was an off-road shortcut - straight down!! Yikes! But once we came and went a few times, our GPS finally caught on to the correct route!)

We travel to Dahlonega several times a year and have rented dozens of vacation properties. This property is our new favorite! The cabin is quiet and secluded, and nicely furnished. The real standout was the deck overlooking the Chestatee River. It's huge! We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evenings watching the birds, fireflies (or lightning bugs as we called them growing up), and other wildlife. We even saw an otter. It was warm during our visit, but a morning rainstorm gave us a hint of what the cabin would be like in colder months: cozy! We are looking forward to returning in the fall or winter. All in all, a great experience. Thank you to our host!

Loved the view of the river from the large deck and the sound of the water flowing. The cabin is out in nature (with a few neighboring houses) but also not far from town. We loved 19 North restaurant just off the square which had a dog friendly porch. The cabin being friendly for dogs was great for us too and our Labrador Retriever. We took a lovely hike part way around the path at the reservoir lake for the town of Dahlonega. The cabin had very good air conditioning which was a real plus in July. The bed had a comfortable mattress. The TV worked great. The walk-in shower was nice. The kitchen had everything we needed including a separate ice maker on the counter. The cleanliness of the property was very good and the host was readily available to answer questions. It did look like there was some tweaking of the closet storage space in the bedroom with some blinds lying in the closet floor and some extra furniture in there, but all in all the cabin was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. We plan to come back in the fall to see the leaves in color over the river and enjoy the fireplace in the cabin. Thanks for the stay! Linda

We love this cabin. This was our second time staying and we enjoyed all the updates done since our last visit. Super clean cabin. AC worked great. Fully stocked kitchen. The deck is amazing. It's over the water and we enjoyed fishing from it. We will be back again next year!

The property and cabin are the epitome of relaxation! It had everything we needed to unwind and just “be” all weekend. Fished right from the deck, enjoyed the fire pit and had the cozy inside to unwind before a restful sleep. The host was super responsive before and during the stay when we had a few quick questions. Would not only recommend, but can’t wait to book another stay!

We enjoyed the cozy, comfy little cabin overlooking the water. It was a peaceful getaway, with the fireplace keeping the cabin nice and warm. It was clean, and stocked with dishes. The deck was perfect for fishing and relaxing. The hostess was extremely nice and very informative. She responded to our text immediately. One bedroom with a pull out sofa in front room. Very nice. Thankyou.

Host was welcoming and easy to reach through email. The cabin was charming in a rustic way, but had most everything we needed. We really enjoyed the fire pit outside, and especially the fact that firewood was provided. The setting is serene and absolutely lovely.
