We loved staying here. Beautifully decorated with the charm fitting a riverside cabin. Bruce was a friendly and courteous host. This floor plan was very comfortable to spend time relaxing and soaking in the natural setting next to the river. We would love to visit here again.

This was hands down the best VRBO vacation ever! The home was warm and welcoming and the view was so relaxing! Everything was clean, perfect and updated. The shower is phenomenal! Thank you so much for the Christmas tree in the living room! We will definitely have to make this an annual thing. We came for Christmas in Dahlonega and it did not disappoint! All the people are just phenomenal. Can’t wait to go back!

The hosts were outstanding, and the house was perfect. Perfectly clean, and was stocked with everything. The property was beautiful and it was so fun walking along the river. We had a fire one night and sat on the swing, it was great. I cannot recommend this house enough! We will absolutely be coming back.

The cabin and deck are absolutely gorgeous. The owners did an outstanding job. A gas fireplace is always a plus for me, too. Great beds and linens and soaps! The location is perfect, just a few minutes away from downtown and hiking. I have been going to the mountains for the last 15 years and this here is my favorite place to stay. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Bruce, who is a wonderful host and very nice person. He and his wife live right next door but don't fret, you have plenty of privacy.

This was our second visit to the river house. It's very comfortable for two couples. We spent most of our time relaxing on the back deck, and the guys did some fly fishing on the river bank. We took day trips into Dahlonega (great lunch at Shenanigans) and Helen, and had a delicious, quiet lunch with no tourists that day at the nearby Unicoi State Park Lodge.

We stayed 7 nights in this relaxing get a way. The home was fully stocked with cooking utensils to shampoo and kleenex! We brought food in from Tomatoe House. I think we went there at least 5 times. Used the grill. Played games and cards on the deck, swung by the fire pit and walked the river.
