We really enjoyed our time in this beautiful home on the river. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous, and being able to relax on the screened patio while taking in the view of the river below was such a treat. It was the perfect setting for a peaceful getaway. We look forward to staying here again!
We had a great family reunion and the river and surrounding area was beautiful. Some in our group were much older so navigating the inside and outside steps and terrain was difficult for them. Overall, we had a great time and loved our stay, but this rental is more ideal for a younger crowd.
A nice peaceful stay with family. My favorite spot was the screened porch, which offered a bug-free place to see and hear the river. One thing I appreciated was that it offered seating for as many people as it slept, which is not always the case in some places; it has a nice long table for dining and games, and plenty of chairs around the fire pit.
Beautiful riverfront property and the screened porch was definitely the favorite place to be! Beds super comfy and kitchen nicely stocked, definitely would recommend and would love to stay again!
The home is beautiful and the location was wonderful. How could you not relax when you could hear the rushing river the minute you stepped outside. It was close to town.The communication with the owners was the best I’ve ever encountered. I would love to return in the future.
The host responded quickly when we messaged her. Very friendly. The house was perfect for our needs. Beds very comfy! What brand were those mattresses. We all slept soundly. View at house was awesome! Don't let the drive down to house is a bit tight but just ease on down! We loved it!!
Amazing river view and so well stocked. Comfortable beds and fabulous kitchen for breakfast before our son’s wedding. We would definitely rent again and highly recommend! Thank you!
This property was absolutely perfect! My friends and I came for a girls weekend, and we loved everything about this house. The sound of the river is so relaxing and the rooms are the perfect size! If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing get-a-way weekend, this is the place for you.
great location. family loves, loves, loves this place and wants to come back. communication with owners was great. highly recommend and looking forward to spending some more time here!

Nice place on Thanksgiving
House was nice, and the river in the back was very nice and peaceful. House in relation to Dahlonega was great, but road to and from the the immediate area of the house was a bit treacherous.
We stayed recently for a family girls weekend and it was great! The communication with the host, the coziness of the house and the view of the river were all unmatched! We will definitely be back!
We had a great visit here. Definitely off the beaten path, but the location is lovely next to the river. Property is very clean and well supplied with essentials. Would be great in the summer.
My friends and I had a lovely time in this cute, cozy home and surrounding area. Wonderful host that were so easy to communicate with and extremely fast responses to all my questions.We will definitely come back.
Had a great family Christmas in the mountains. Property is a little slice of heaven, so quiet and peaceful. Plenty of room for the 7 adults in our family. House is super cute, clean and cozy. Would definitely rent again.
Home and property are amazing. The house is perfect and the river views and sounds are unforgettable. We had the best time - will be back next year !!!
We love this house! We have stayed here 4 times and will be back for more. It is clean, well appointed, and stocked with everything you need! Janet’s attention to detail does not go unnoticed!
This house is so great, the pictures do not do it justice. Having the river directly outside is so peaceful - we sat on the screened deck listening to it free from bugs almost the entire time. Super close to downtown and wineries.
