The Riverhouse: Retreat on the Toccoa

This River Cabin is on the beautiful Toccoa River and is located in the heart of the Aska adventure area. With a view of the river and direct river access, you can enjoy river activities and fishing right from the property. Other activities around include hiking to waterfalls and being in nature. The interior has been updated but still has a vintage feel. So come enjoy a beautiful view, and restful time, or have amazing outdoor adventures. Wifi and streaming are now available on a 65-inch smart TV!

You will feel just like you are staying in the trees in this magical cabin. The home overlooks the beautiful Toccoa River and Chattahoochee National Forest. Enjoy a hot cup of coffee on the deck while listening to the sounds of the river. You may experience the thrill of seeing a family of deer or blue herons fishing in the river. There is just so much to enjoy! When you are ready to enjoy the river, you just walk down the hill to get in or stop by the fire pit for the view. You can grill on the deck that has a view of the creek. When it rains you have a game table with plenty of board games/puzzles and plenty of movies to choose from. It’s a space to make memories in.

We are available to text or call. We also live next door and can be available to you when needed. Our mission is to make your stay as memorable as possible!

We are 7 miles up Aska Road from the town of Blueridge, near the rapids of Toccoa. We are a mile from Shallowford Bridge where they have tube rentals. The Lilly Pad is a block away where they have fishing, mini golf, and mining activities for kids. The famous River restaurant is a mile away. Hiking trails all around. 3 miles away from Falls Branch Falls. We are 3.5 miles from Aska Farms wedding venue. 10 miles from Mercier Orchards. 12 miles from Bear Claw Vineyards, 16 miles from Serenberry Vineyards and Winery.

We live off a paved road so no need for four-wheel drive. Parking is at the top of the stairs. Additional parking for more than two cars is available by request.

There is a downstairs that is unavailable to guests at this time. It is where the washer and dryer are kept and is available to you by request. Please message the host for the washer and dryer access code.
Another thing to note: there are two cabins on the property. The firepit is for this cabin, you will not have to share. You are welcome to the mountain yard for firewood for the firepit. We do not provide firewood. We recommend picking up a starter log for the fireplace/ pit, they can be found at the local grocery store, Food Lion, and Ingles.
We have a Gas grill.
Swim at your own risk. Keep in mind that sometimes the river is very fast and deep, and other times it is very slow and shallow. It all depends on how much rain we get.
Trash is picked up at the end of the walkway towards the other cabin. You will see an outside trash can that you place your filled trash bags in.
We have provided enough paper products to get you started during your stay. If a stay is longer than 4 days, the guest will be responsible for replenishing their own additional supplies.

Anniversary Get a way
I wish the code to gain entry would be sent the day before as the day of we were traveling and not seeing the code I confused the code from VRBO to access the app as the code to get in the door which of course didn't work. Thankful the owners were next door. Turns out the code went to my spam.. Loved the cabin and we had a wonderful stay.

very relaxing and somewhat peaceful
Cabin is close enough to the highway to hear loud vehicles but really not a lot of traffic. Back porch with large swing bed was a wonderful place to relax and listen to the water cascading over the rock in the river below. Very clean and well furnished. Would recommend to others.

Perfect Romantic Getaway
We celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary in Blue Ridge. The Riverhouse was perfect for a romantic getaway. The property listing was accurate, and actually exceeded our expectations when we arrived. The Host responded to questions in a prompt fashion and was very friendly. The house was clean and well equipped for a quick trip or longer-term stay. It was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend!

Fairly remote cabin ideal for a peaceful getaway. @7 miles from Blue Ridge but only 1/2 mile from great restaurant in the other direction. Comfortable accomodations that are well kept.

Relaxing Adventure
We had a wonderful stay in this cabin! It was clean and very comfortable. We had great communication with the manager. The location along the River was fantastic! But it was also very close to so many amazing activities and areas to see. We give this our highest recommendation for anyone to stay and will be back ourselves to enjoy it again!

Railing from road to cabin needs repair. Fire pit area needs some attention. Picture of fire pit area looked much better than it actually was. We did enjoy our stay and the cabin offered all we needed. Clean and well equipped.

River Gem
This river home is a perfect mountain getaway. It’s close enough to town for all the conveniences, but far enough away to give a sense of escape. Being so close to the Aska Trail System was super nice. We did a different hike every morning. Relaxing by the river at the end of the day was wonderful. There’s a restaurant and a general store a mile down the road. Great vacation home!

Summer family vacation
We made our first trip to Blue Ridge for our summer family vacation this year. This riverside cabin was the perfect spot for us! I felt right at home-like I was staying in my grandparents home place! The cabin was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved sitting on the screened back porch on the comfy bed swing, listening to the river and birds sing. We saw a deer and her fawn up close too! It feels like you are in a treehouse with trees all around and great view of the river. Be careful of the steep walk down to the river, but my husband and I and our kids (6 & 9) didn’t have any issues making it down there. Joy always responded quickly to my questions and was kind. The owners live right beside the cabin and respected our privacy, but were available if we needed anything. One night the power went out and the owner walked over to give us a flashlight to use and reassure us. I thought that was so kind. The location was great too! It didn’t take long to get to town or to tubing activities. I would love to come back one day!

Beautiful Location
Location was absolutely beautiful and very convenient to shops and multiple hiking locations. Well appointed kitchen and relaxing screened in porch. Our favorite part was eating around the campfire by the river, and our daughter loved exploring up the small stream beside the property. It is a bit of a steep walk down to the fire pit area, so just be aware of that if you have smaller kids or older members of the family. Property manager was very quick to respond when we had questions.

Boys trip weekend
My friend and I took our sons on a Blue Ridge mountain weekend for a getaway of fishing and hanging out. The property was perfect. Right on the river (where we caught a nice 8" rainbow trout), fire pit area overlooking the river that was great to hangout around at night with the sounds of the water rushing by, and the house was stocked with everything needed for cooking, coffee, and even games if we had forgotten ours. The location was great as well. Gives you that "out in the middle of no where" feeling, but there are places to eat and go to near by. Downtown Blue Ridge is also a quick drive down the road, so we couldn't have asked for more location wise. Property manager was quick to respond to any questions we had, and communicated the check-in process clearly. Will definitely be in the favorites list for future trips to the mountains.

Great cabin, great location, great stay!
I rented this cabin for a father and son weekend get away. We hiked, did some cast iron cooking over the fire, and did some fishing. Everything made easy the location of this wonderful cabin. Easy check in and check out and a quality experience overall! Thank you!
