Riverside Retreat located on the Nottely River in the North Georgia Mountains.
Cozy, 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom cabin on the Nottely River in Blairsville, GA. Fully remodeled bathroom (with never ending hot water with the new tankless water heater) and with updates made to the kitchen and throughout the house, you're sure to enjoy your stay at our mountain cabin. Kitchen is stocked with all the necessary pots, pans, utensils and other items you might need to cook with. The bathroom is located on the main level while the 2 bedrooms are located upstairs. Each bedroom has a queen size bed with smart TV's and small closets to store your clothes while visiting. The living room has a couch with a pull-out bed and a gas fireplace so you can curl up on the couch and enjoy watching movies on the smart TV which also has dish network connected. (TV's upstairs do not have feed from dish) We do have a few board games for you or your kids to play should you want to stay indoors. You'll have several places to enjoy eating meals either on the roadside screened in porch, the open porch on the riverside or in the dining room area. Riverside Retreat is situated in the quiet secluded neighborhood of Choestoe Village only 8 1/2 miles from downtown Blairsville, GA. Enjoy the flowing sound of the river off the back porch while sipping your morning coffee or sleep with the windows open and let the sound of the river lull you to sleep. No need for a fake river sound machine when you can have the real thing! Just minutes from several exciting activities the North Georgia Mountains has to offer. Vogel State Park and Helton Creek Falls are just a couple of nearby places to go and only minutes away from the cabin. You can also take the very beautiful 30-minute drive on the Richard B. Russell scenic highway over to Helen to float the Chattahoochee River or enjoy the shops and stores. Nottley Lake in Blairsville and Lake Chatuge in Hiawassee are only about 20-30 minutes away. Take your own boat or rent one from the many boat rental companies located on the lakes. Take in all the beauty of the leaves changing colors during the fall should your stay coincide with that time of year. You can enjoy roasting hotdogs or making smores while sitting by the fire pit next to the river. If you enjoy fishing, the river is stocked with trout several times throughout the spring and summer months. You can fish from the rocky beach or traverse the river in either direction to discover some good fishing holes. Also, there are several great fishing spots located in the surrounding areas if fishing is your thing. Choestoe Village is tucked away so you can enjoy walks around the streets or let your kids play and tube in the river while you sit in a lounge chair on the rocky beach. Parking for 2-4 vehicles not pulling anything and enough room for 2 vehicles if you are pulling a small trailer or boat.

The host was incredibly welcoming! Checking in and assuring our stay was good! We loved the scenery & the house so much! We plan on coming back if the host will have us!
The cabin is cozy and well appointed. It was perfect for my little retreat from the world. I absolutely loved sitting on the back porch listening to the river. An absolute gem.
We enjoyed our stay! Perfect break from the hustle bustle of life. Adults and children enjoyed fishing in the river and the peaceful atmosphere on the property. The host is very prompt and helpful – thank you for everything!
Beautiful cabin, nicely set up and very cozy!! Loved the river running right behind it....so peaceful. Chose this one for the location too-was central to everything I wanted to see during my stay.

Hey Teri, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come back again soon!
The host was very responsive prior to our stay and provided us with details requested. The cabin was clean, cozy, and welcoming. Absolutely loved the creek and back porch area, including the comfy rockers and blankets. The beds were really comfortable and I slept well during the duration of our stay. The location is great too. We spent a day in Blairsville, a day in Helen, and a day in Blue Ridge. All were easy to get to from this cabin location. Highly recommend visiting some of the State Parks in the area as they offer great walking trails and sight seeing for a very minimal fee. We would stay here again!
