Spring on the Toccoa River! Cozy log cabin w/firepit in the Appalachian Mtns
Welcome to River Moss Cottage!
This log cabin nestled in the heart of the national forest and on the banks of the Toccoa River. River Moss Cottage has been curated to provide a warm and inviting atmosphere for families and friends seeking a tranquil escape.
As you step inside, be greeted by the rustic wood-burning fireplace that serves as the centerpiece of the living area. The kitchen is a home chef's dream, fully equipped with modern appliances and ample counter space, making meal preparation a breeze.
The cabin is tastefully decorated with antique furniture for a touch of rustic elegance. Large windows throughout the cabin offer views of the forest, river, and open yard, creating a seamless connection with the outdoors. Given the chance, natural light will flood the interior, highlighting the rich textures and warm tones of the log walls and wooden floors.
On the back deck, you'll find a Weber gas grill and views of the surrounding forest and the river. As night falls, sit around the firepit near the edge of the Toccoa River. The path is thoughtfully lit, allowing you to enjoy this amenity even after dark. The gentle sound of the river provides a soothing backdrop, enhancing the magical ambiance of your evenings.
The convenience of a pull-around driveway ensures easy access, and the cabin's location just a short drive from the main state highway makes it an accessible retreat while still offering seclusion and privacy.
For those seeking adventure, the area offers a wealth of activities. Enjoy fishing in the waters of the Toccoa River, where you might catch a glimpse of local wildlife. Tubing down the gentle rapids provides a fun and refreshing way to spend an afternoon, and the surrounding national forest is a hiker's paradise, with trails that cater to all skill levels, offering stunning vistas and the chance to explore the rich biodiversity of the region.
River Moss Cottage is more than just a log cabin; it's a destination where you can reconnect with nature and loved ones, creating cherished memories. Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat or an adventure-filled getaway, our cabin provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable experience in the North Georgia mountains.

Thank you for your review! I’m so glad you and your wife had a peaceful and beautiful weekend getaway. It’s always wonderful to hear when guests can truly relax and enjoy their time. I’d love to host you again for another serene escape!
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. Everything was exactly as described, and the kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with far more than the basics, which made our stay incredibly comfortable and convenient. The cabin was clean and well maintained, with fantastic views and a cozy fireplace that we really enjoyed. We loved seeing deer around the property. The directions were clear and took us straight to the cabin, and the circular driveway made access easy. Water pressure was great, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. It was clear a lot of care went into making sure guests feel at home—we would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this cabin.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay at the cabin, even for a short trip. We hope it provided the perfect setting for some rest and relaxation. We'd love to host you again for a longer visit next time!
Check-in was great, hardly anything to it! The kitchen and the gas-grill on the balcony are amazing, we cooked so much food during our stay. The fireplace is also super nice and comfy, only thing I should have done was bring more firewood.
We loved the cabin, location, and property. Our week was packed with adventures and very relaxing!

We loved this property! The cabin has the greatest atmosphere- truly a cabin experience. The outdoor spaces were just right for our relaxed week. Fishing nearby was good and we really enjoyed being right on the Toccoa. We will definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to the area.

Being right on the Toccoa and having good fishing nearby makes for an ideal getaway. I’d be delighted to welcome you back for another great cabin experience on your next trip to the area!
I loved the way the cabin was decorated. The stairs was a bit much for us but the cabin is beautiful. Sadly, we did not catch any trout in the river behind the cabin. We did enjoy the nature beauty surrounding the cabin though.
Cabin was amazing and made us feel right at home! The creek, firepit, and front porch with hummingbird feeder made every moment special! 10/10 experience!

Thank you for such a glowing review! I’m thrilled the cabin felt like home and that you enjoyed the creek, firepit, and those peaceful moments on the front porch with the hummingbird feeder. It’s wonderful to hear it was a 10/10 experience for you. I’d be delighted to welcome you back for more special moments in the future!
Thank you for your review! Sometimes the best getaways are the spur-of-the-moment ones. I’m so glad you had a five-star experience, and I’d love to host you again anytime inspiration strikes!
Beautiful, wonderful getaway. The cabin was clean and well-kept. Very comfortable. I only rated a 4 on the location because I wish it was a little further off of the main road. Trucks and motorcycles on HWY 60 are a bit annoying, but not enough to prevent coming back! Will be heading that way again soon.
The cabin was very clean and nice. It had everything we needed. The stream in the back is nice. The internet would cut.out, but always returned. I enjoyed watching the hummingbirds from the swing under the porch.
We very much enjoyed our stay at River Moss Cabin!! The grounds were fantastic! The firepit area was a great place for the family to enjoy s’mores and a little football throwing through the life preserver😂 The bedrooms were very comfortable, just watch out for those beams in the loft. I did bump my head a few times. Make sure to bring your own laundry detergent to wash towels and wash cloths as you are only allotted one per person for the entirety of your stay. Overall, we had a great time!

Thank you for your wonderful feedback about your stay at River Moss Cabin! I'm so glad to hear your family enjoyed the firepit and made fun memories together—it sounds like such a great time! The beams in the loft can be a little tricky; thank you for pointing that out for future guests. I appreciate your note about the towels and will look into ways to make that more convenient. I'm so happy you had a great experience overall, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Property was very clean and had everything we needed. Loved shampoo and soap were provided. Great location for fishing close to rock creek and coopers creek
Great Place and great location! Just a few frowns!
The cabin was nice, very unique. Only complaints I have are the living room TV is very small, only time we were inside was when it was raining or we were cooking. But I believe the TV could be much bigger for that room. The sheets on one bed smelled like urine, we washed them before we slept in that particular bed. The Toccoa River runs down behind the cabin which is nice, but there were no stairs or paths that would allow you to reach the river for fishing or wading purposes, That was a bummer that we couldn't access the river more easily. But over all the location and the cabin was very clean. The directions were spot on too! I would and will definately rent from them again.
Everything was so perfect , so clean , I recommend this 100 % , you are going to find Everything there , just go to a market "Ingles" i recommend , and enjoy your stay.
This cottage is adorable! Exceptionally clean and a really well stocked (supplies) kitchen. The beds were extremely comfortable. The grounds were really pretty. Wished we had more time there to just enjoy the cottage and outside area. Will definitely return and will stay longer to enjoy fully!
This cabin was perfect. The first (and most important thing to me) thing I noticed is how clean it is! It’s large enough for multiple people but still has a quaint feel. We absolutely loved the property and the sound of the river. I would definitely recommend this property!
Peaceful, quiet, comfortable cabin.
3 regular bedrooms with another room with a futon bed if you need.
2 Full bathrooms
Nice river/ stream in the backyard
We had more items available to us than we thought. We had laundry detergent and dryer sheets and coffee left for us. The refrigerator and washer and dryer were adequate. The internet wifi worked fast but not in every room (downstairs bathroom). There was a gas grill that looked nice but we did not use it. They also supplied little things like fishing poles and tackle and walking sticks. The TV was a little small but worked adequately with the Roku. There was a fireplace that seemed nice but we didn't use it because it's summer. The owner also provided us with a homemade guide book that was very useful. It gave us recommendations for places to visit and eat and had maps which were very useful because our cellphone signal was spotty there. The location is very rural. Very small country roads in the mountains. So I would bring the book in case you lose signal from your cellphone. The closest grocery store like Walmart or Ingles or Publix is about at least 40 minutes drive.
As for things to do, there were many waterfalls and walking trails within an hour drive from the cabin. We really liked Preacher's Rock and some of the waterfalls nearby. Some of the reviews said that Preacher's Rock was an easy hike but it wasn't for us. 😅🤣 Took us about an hour to get there walking from the parking lot.
The only thing we had a problem with is that the stairs are steep for us. So if you are older or have mobility problems then I would not recommend this place as you have to either go up or down to the bedrooms. And also we felt a little vulnerable because most of the windows do not have curtains so we felt a little exposed especially at night.
But overall we really enjoyed the cabin and had a great time exploring the area! Great for young people and families. If not in good condition to walk then I wouldn't recommend it.
Great cabin off the main track, but not out of the way. Has all the main essentials you could possibly need. Wonderful binder put together with a plethora of information on the area and things to see or do. Plenty of space for everyone, without being on top of each other. Relaxing site just off the river.
