    The view of the river was spectacular. We enjoyed the fire pit area near the river one night.The house was comfortable and clean. We will visit this location again!

    The property is beautiful as described. We enjoyed our time at River Gem. The road going to the property has a shockingly steep portion, but once you are used to navigating it, it is very doable. The beauty of the home and property is worth the short drive off main road. Our only problem was that a question we had was not addressed in a timely manner. We texted the number provided and did not get an answer and then messaged through VRBO and got a delayed response. Property manager was alerted that we saw a rodent.

    This cabin was exactly as described. Beautiful inside and out. Just steps away from the river, with awesome surrounding views of the mountains. The cabin has plenty of everything you need for a stay their. Very roomy and comfortable and easy to get to as it’s pretty close to town. Will definitely stay there again.

    This house was fantastic! There were no negatives about this house and the yard and creek were fantastic! They have everything you need. The only thing I would say would be having a can opener (they have a hand held one which is fine but it doesn’t work) and the coffee maker looked great on the outside but when you go to fill up the water it was gross so we opted for Starbucks which wasn’t so bad either if you like to go. We enjoyed going to the Hiawassee Brewery which was about a 5 minute drive. We are thinking about renting this house again when we can take time off in the next year or so. A plus was all beds and pillows were fantastic! That’s not always the case when renting or staying in hotels. I highly recommend this house! Thank you for renting to us!

    This place is like the perfect little mountain get away. The river was shallow and gentle enough for the kids to play and tube in. We had a few days when it was raining too so the kids spent time playing air hockey and basketball so those things were a God send. We did have a bit of a scheduling problem (which was 100% my fault) and Robyn was amazing fixing it and getting it all straightened out. It was so gorgeous and relaxing, I highly recommend!
