Rainbow Riverside Farmhouse is a breathtaking cabin offering a wonderful feeling of seclusion and privacy along scenic Mountaintown Creek in the private Coosawattee River Resort. Watch as the geese glide into land, browse at the herd of deer grazing in the meadow next door, catch a glimpse of the giant Blue Heron who often visits this tranquil valley. Cool off with a swim in the river. Bring a tube and walk up stream and float your stress away.Experience magic.

The Space
Enjoy all this from a newly remodeled five-star cabin that includes details such as professional hair care products, luxurious bedding and towels, a fully stocked gourmet kitchen, a game room with Air Hockey and Foosball, a movie room with a 75 Smart TV/Sound Bar/DVD/Blu-ray player, two fireplaces(one firepit) to choose from, a wide assortment of board games, poker set, cards, a luxury Bull Frog Hot Tub with lounge seat, 2 king masters with balconies overlooking the river. You simply will not find a nicer cabin in a more idyllic setting.

Guest Access
You will enjoy access to the entire home and nearly 1,000 feet of private riverfront as we own two additional lots and three adjacent homes.

Other things to note
Note that our base rate is for 4 people and that the rate increases $15 per night per each additional Guest up to 8 total Guests or an additional $60 per night. This allows us to offer a more reasonable rate for smaller parties.

PETS- While we do allow a pet, we only allow one dog that is 50 pounds or less and at least 2 years old. We require a Vet Health Certificate confirming the dog's age, weight, and that its vaccinations are current along with a photo of the dog. Note that there is a pet fee of $35/night with a $70 minimum charge per stay.

Now with Fiber Internet!

Please note, while access to the cabin is generally easy(we drive a Hyundai Sonota Hybrid), the last ~1/3 of a mile is on a community maintained gravel road. Parking for up to 3 cars is off-street and there are no stairs to enter the cabin.

Finally, note that our air conditioning and heating system is set to allow for a minimum temperature setting of 72 degrees and maximum temperature of 76 degrees.. Experience has taught us that these temperatures are very comfortable for most Guests and is an important part of our energy conservation program. In the event that a Guest desires a lower or higher setting, we are happy to accommodate this need allowing a setting as low as 68 or 80 degrees for a surcharge of $10/night.

We will be available to help at any time during your stay. We have lived in the area for years and are happy to help in any way we can. From restaurants to activities, our Welcome Book which will be provided covers many details of the area.

    Second time at this house, this time with our grown children. A great property, with a great house and great amenities. If you are looking for a place to get away, and enjoy trout fishing, this is the place for you.... fishing optional.

    Great host who understands the little things make the difference. A perfect getaway that allows for relaxation, a conversation by a fire, a cold drink on the porch with a view, or a relaxing walk by the rustling creek. Did not want for anything while staying at the Farmhouse. If we needed it, it was already there.

    Just a wonderful house and wonderful property. The house was beautiful, well appointed, clean and perfect for what we were looking for. If you like to fly fish for trout, this house is perfect for you as well. If you like wildlife in general, this house is perfect for you. If you like comfort and feeling spoiled, this house is also perfect for you. We also had the privilege of meeting the owner and he is great and very accommodating. We will be renting this house again and sharing this experience with our family and friends as much as possible in the coming years.

    The Farmhouse was a perfect getaway! Perfect setting, loved watching the deer come by every evening, sitting by the campfire, enjoying the rushing river! Every detail was thought of, including an apple pie and a treat for our pup! Beds were very comfy, everything clean, kitchen stocked with basics , loved the secret game room (how I wish we would have come here when our kids were younger!), hot tub was great, plenty of cozy spots to sit and relax around the house! Thank you for sharing your space with us!

    This house makes for a magical vacation. If you're looking for serenity, comfort and quality family time, this is a great place to make that happen. The beds were wonderful, the creek was peaceful, so many deer came to say hello through the window and the secret rooms behind the book shelf were a hit. Wish we could have stayed longer!

    The cabin itself was cozy, spotless, and fully stocked with everything we needed. Fishing was definitely my husband favorite. My two year old had a blast in the yard. The hosting really set this stay apart. Brad is a fantastic owner who goes above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable. He was incredibly responsive, gave us great local tips, and made the whole check-in process seamless. It’s clear he takes great pride in this property.We’re already checking the calendar to see when we can book our next stay!

    Our family loved this property. Cabin is well-appointed and the layout is well-designed to maximize the views of the river, which is truly beautiful and serene. So many friendly deer and geese (I think). Host was very responsive and full of helpful info. We hope to return soon.

    We had a wonderful stay at this farmhouse and couldn’t have asked for a better pre-Christmas getaway. The setting right on the river is peaceful and beautiful, and the property itself is extremely well thought out and comfortable.The home was clean, well stocked, and exactly as described. The hosts clearly put a lot of care into making this a place where families can relax and actually enjoy their time together. The quiet surroundings, fast internet, and thoughtful amenities made it feel like a true retreat.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly riverfront escape.

    I cannot say enough about our Farmhouse Cabin stay. From the start, the communication with Brad, the host, was so thorough and helpful. The cabin was decorated so cute and cozy but large enough to comfortably host 8. The attention to detail was impressive - from the coffee bar in each room to the fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook any meal. Big windows offer a fantastic view of the creek and mountainside. We enjoyed seeing many deer and the baby geese. But the icing on the cake was fishing right outside the back door. We were able to trout fish every day without having to drive. A lovely firepit with very nice chairs and a delightful hot tub made our stay So Much Fun! We will definitely stay again when we come to the area. Look no further and book this cabin!

    We had an amazing stay! The home was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The sitting room that over looks the river was perfect to enjoy our morning coffee and have family conversations. The kitchen came fully stocked with all your cookie essentials, which was nice. We got to meet the host, Brad, who was very attentive and welcoming and provided suggestions on places to visit.If you enjoy wildlife, this is definitely a place to stay. Our kids counted over 100 deers during our 5 day stay.We plan to return here in the future!

    Brad the property manager was absolutely fantastic to work with, we felt very comfortable booking this Cabin for our vacation from the very beginning. Great communication, wonderful website with guides to the resort along with great recommendations for activities around the area. The cabin was spotless when we arrived, the decor and use of space was really well thought out be the owners. Also, it was nice knowing that they owned all 4 properties along the river bank and that they were all rentals being vetted by Brad and the management company. We really enjoyed the game room, we stayed up all night playing air hockey. Very accommodating to our furry babies, even supplying a crate so we didn't need to bring one. I like to cook and at home I have a robust kitchen, most rentals are missing a lot of what you need to cook meals from scratch. This kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed and then some. Comfortable beds with rooms spread out around the house. Overall this was the best rental we have used and we will absolutely use Elestay properties when in the area in the future.

The communication was amazing, he went above and beyond to help us with last minute plans. The location, views from the home, attention to every little detail was amazing. We can not wait to come back & stay again.
