While relaxing on the huge deck overlooking the river, you will hear the roaring rapids, see the abundance of wildlife and be wowed by the breathtaking views. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath cabin sits on 1 1/2 acres that will give you a rustic feel with modern conveniences. The moderate hike to the river will lead you thru the woods and past many additional river viewing spots. There are two fire pits available to make your smores and memories.
The space
The cabin has 2 bedrooms (2 queen) on the main level and the master (king) upstairs. There is a full basement with a washer/dryer and game rooms. It also has central heat & air. There is a full bathroom on every level and 2 walkout decks overlooking the woods and river. The kitchen has recently (5/2023) been redone with all new cabinets and granite countertops.
Guest access
It is in a gated community with 4 access gates. We recommend coming in the main gate only. It is a huge resort with lots of twisty roads. We are located about 3 miles from that gate with only 5 turns required. Most roads are paved, only the last one is gravel. We have a driveway where you can park next to the house. Additional parking also available within short distance.
The cabin is in a resort, and we will provide 2 access cards to the amenities. Each pass will allow 4 guest in. We have 2 outdoor pools and a rec center with an indoor pool, workout space, tennis courts and putt putt.
Other things to note
We are kid friendly, but not necessarily 100% kid safe. Our kids are grown so we don't have the special furniture (unless you consider our outdoor swing one). It is on the side of a mountain so the terrain can be steep. We have steps to make it easier and safer. It does have 300 ft of river access. On our side, the river is shallow and great for wading. In the middle, the river flows fast with deep parts so while it's fun to go in, younger kids need to be watched.
The Gilmer County host license number is 002526.

    Great Location, beautiful back porch with Swing. Loved the Kitchen fully stocked and accessible. Daily visitors with the Deer and Geese were the absolute best. Can't wait to come back.

    Beautiful home and neighborhood. Exceptionally clean and comfortable beds. Kitchen was fully stocked with anything needed for cooking. Owner graciously let us in early since we arrived hours before check in time. Met a few neighbors while walking our dog and they were very friendly. The area is full of wildlife. We fed the deer some corn and they stayed around the house. There are windy roads up to the house but very simple to find. The walk to the river was steep but there are steps and a rope hand rail to help. We loved our stay here and will hopefully return next fall.

    Amazing stay in this cabin definitely deer friendly! My BF couldn’t stop feeding them! Cozy porch to snuggle in the rain and take it all in.

    We have stayed in several mountain cabins and this one was the best yet. Very clean nicely furnished. The couch, chairs, and beds were in very good condition. Not worn and in need of replacement like other cabins we have visited. Many additional small details and the spectacular view were icing on the cake!

    Our stay was so good. The cabin is beautiful and very clean. The owner thinks of everything u may need. Just bring ur own food. The deer was beautiful and feeding them was great, there are out by the cabin every evening and morning. The firepit area was good the little hike to the river was a little tough exspecially comeing back up…

    I came back for a second stay because we had such a great time during our first visit. The cabin was just as beautiful as the first time. We love the peaceful atmosphere and scenery. Dan is an awesome host!

    Very nice cabin for my visiting friends. Everything we needed was there. Great entertainment spaces, but the porch was our favorite hangout. The river was so peaceful to hear. I’ve stayed in this neighborhood before, but this has been my favorite so far. Love all the wildlife. Would stay here again for sure.

    The property and cabin were immaculate. Short walk down to the river, deer everywhere in the community at all times of the day. Dan, the host was great. Very easy check in and out. Planning on another visit here again. Couldn’t have been nicer.

    My family had a fantastic stay. I have stayed a many VRBOs and this is definitely one of my favorites. They have everything you need. The beds were comfy and the decks overlooking the river was the best part. Spent most my time out there listening to the river. The hike to the river is definitely an adventure but worth it. There are deer all over the place. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to relax. It is beautiful!
