Stunning Rushing River Views ~ North Georgia Mountains ~ Short Hop to Town!

Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains along the Chestatee River, H&J Riverhouse is your ultimate rejuvenation destination. Just twelve minutes from historic Downtown Dahlonega and within easy access to the area's many wineries, hiking trails, and waterfalls, H&J is the perfect base camp for couples retreats, celebrating major family milestones, or reconnecting with the great outdoors.

H&J offers four, full-sized bedrooms on three levels and three and one-half baths, comfortably accommodating up to eight adults. The well-equipped kitchen and over-sized farm table invites lazy dinners at home and the screened in back porch is the perfect spot for an afternoon nap or morning coffee.

The backyard offers stunning rushing river views, 575 feet of waterfront trails, lounge seating, a fire pit for cookouts and keeping warm, and horseshoe pits for the competitive spirit. Just a short hike across the footbridge, The Overlook provides quiet reading and napping options under a huge natural rock.

H&J Riverhouse is available for personal weekend and week-long rental. Contact owners directly for special weekday corporate retreat pricing.

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!

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.

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.

Great river getaway!

Great location close to town but out far enough you feel like you are truly getting away. It sits right on the river with a 'beach' area to wade in and splash around which was fun for our whole family. Lots of outdoor entertaining areas which was important to us. The owners texted us so they were easy to reach should we have needed anything. We would definitely stay there again!

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.

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.

Perfect spot for girls weekend

This property was very comfortable for my mom, sister, daughter and myself. It was just a quick getaway to the mountains for a little shopping, dining and potter painting. But, we wanted somewhere "close to nature" and this was amazing. The river rushing outside the back porch is beautiful and impressive. Our hosts were very communicative and the whole exchange was easy.

Perfect Fit!

This beautiful lakefront property was the ideal space for our 3 generation family of 8 to get away for a few days! Sleeping space on all 3 levels gave everyone their own space, and the spacious common living areas made for some great times! We found everything we needed from the well appointed kitchen to the beautiful outdoor space and firepit area. Would definitely stay here again!
