Wonderful experience in this cabin. Kitchen is very well stocked and little things like small blankets on every couch/chair made the cabin cozy and comfortable. The lower floor gave us a perfect combination of privacy and connection with rest of cabin. My husband and I stayed there and the floor felt like an apartment with its own living area. Too cold for tubing but will be back to experience that as well.

Beautiful property with all the amenities you could ask for. River tubing bonfires deer everywhere and just an hour or so from home. Downtown Elijay has been transformed over the years and is worth a visit for lunch or dinner. Do consider this home for your future getaway.

Amazing property, with a lot of room for a big group. Love the well stocked kitchen and the fine decoration. Please follow Ann’s instructions regarding the address. If you have never been in Coosawattee River Resort, getting there may be tricky, specially at night. I have ATT and lost service in the resort area. We all enjoyed the fire pit and the super easy access to the river. We saw a lot of deers too! I highly recommend this property and thank Anna and her husband for the hospitality.

Fantastic spot for a peaceful and serene getaway!

We absolutely loved the cabin, it has a beautiful view and booking was a breeze. The host was very responsive and hospitable. The cabin itself was well maintained, clean and roomy. This is the perfect place if you are looking for some peace and quiet to reconnect with nature while big enough to host a large group. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful place to get away and relax

The cabin was located right on the river amazing view. Everything you want on a getaway house was exactly as described in listing. Owner was super nice and always available with a call or text if needed. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a perfect experience in the mountains. Our family will be visiting again.

Family Christmas Vacation

The cabin is beautiful and we enjoyed staying here. Please be aware the main floor is upstairs. My elderly Mom wasn't able to climb them; but there is a nice den, bedroom and bath downstairs. Also the driveway is steep. The view of the river is awesome!.

Fun river retreat

Our family enjoyed our stay here! We loved tubing in the river, it is fast moving and fun. Takes a little while to get to the property from the neighborhood gate but we saw tons of deer on the road. The deer are not afraid of cars so be sure tondrive slowly.

Perfect Summer Fun

Everything was as expected. Great location right on the river for ease of access. Cabin had all that and then some. Relaxing and a lot of fun. Easy to day drive to waterfall hikes and downtown Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Excellent communication from the property owner. Perfect summer family fun for all three families. Would stay again for sure. Thank you!

Peaceful river retreat

House directly overlooks the river, so you can sit on the screened deck and listen to it rushing by. Lots of different spaces in the house for the various guests. House is clean and host is very responsive and helpful. Tubing opportunities right outside your door, and nice parks nearby. Day trips into Ellijay, to Amicolola, or to kayaking outfitters take slightly more planning (it’s a slow drive in and out of the resort), but can easily be done. Really nice place to stay.

Vacation perfection

We had a great family vacation at this house. The kitchen was very well appointed for anything we needed to cook nearly all of our meals. There was even laundry detergent provided! Beach towels are also provided which was fantastic! There were plenty of bath towels in each bathroom which is so appreciated. The entire house was very clean, and communication with the host was easy and quick. Pack some earplugs if you plan on staying on one of the lower floors because you can hear every footstep from up above. There are more stairs than I realized when booking, but we managed, and that wouldn't stop me from staying here again. The river is shallow right behind the house, and it was perfect for sitting and cooling off. But don't miss out on tubing the river with the provided tubes. We would happily stay here again the next time we are in town.
