Women's weekend getaway

We loved everything about our stay at the Chestatee River Cabin. It was clean and very well maintained. The attention to detail was much appreciated, Before we even arrived we knew what to expect. Bruce was in contact with us and gave specific instructions to get us right to the cabin...even went as far as to warn about the drop in speed limit 2 miles out! He greeted us upon arrival and made sure we had no problem with entry. One evening there was an issue with the gas fireplace (operator error) and he came over at 8:30 p.m. to check it out. We appreciated the coffee, sugars and creamer and also the toiletries (which were top notch). The location was great, only a 15-30 minute drive to all the activities we wanted to do. There's plenty of hiking nearby and we spent evenings playing games or sitting by the campfire, wood provided by Bruce. This was a very comfortable stay for girlfriends who wanted to get away from the city, do a little shopping, but mostly chill out. This is definitely the perfect cabin for 2 couples, a small family or a couple friends wanting to get away! Thank you Bruce & Lisa for opening your sweet cabin to us.

Great host and amazing cabin

Bruce and his wife do an amazing job of thinking of everything! All you need to do is bring your bags and groceries! Amazing view on the river, every amenity you could think of to include marshmallow holders for smores. We so enjoyed the back porch and take a walk along the shore down where the rocks are and enjoy the sounds! We went downtown and enjoyed all the shops and fall decorations. Thankyou for sharing your piece of heaven with us. A great girls weekend after dealing with 2 hurricanes!

River get-away

This property is just beautiful. The river is calming and relaxing. It rained every day except one, so we were unable to enjoy this beautiful porch. The porch is covered, but the wind and rain prevented us from going out. The house is excellent and you have everything you need or want. It is decorated beautifully. Our host was very nice and answered every question promptly.

Great cabin, great location, great stay

Super little cabin. Fit our family perfect. Well appointed...obviously lots of thought went in to stocking the cabin. Kitchen, bathrooms, closets all had extra touches that made are stay even better. It was wonderful sitting on the deck in the morning and evenings listening to the river. Owner was there to meet us and make sure we could get in. Close to town and wineries. Highly recommend and would stay again.

If you are looking for a beautiful quiet relaxing spot then this is it. My husband and I stayed with some close friends and we loved it so much that we returned back again this year. The owners, Bruce and Lisa are right next door and are wonderful host. The cabin has everything you need for a great stay. The cleaniest cabin we have ever stayed in.

Second time here, can’t wait to come again!

We love this place so much! Everything about it allows for a relaxing, restful time (from the river, to the great back porch, to the cozy cabin feel) which is exactly what we had. Having the river right in the backyard is a treasure. We got to see a bald eagle and a blue heron, which was fun. It’s also convenient in that it’s only a short drive away from downtown Dahlonega. Plus, Bruce is a great host! We truly look forward to coming back!!
