Great place to stay. No board games included. Outside grill was pretty nasty and could use a real good cleaning. No board games or anything. Beautiful cabin with amazing view. Host very friendly.

Motorcycle trip

The home was perfect! We all rode motorcycles to the home and normally parking is an issue but not here. The concrete driveway was perfect. The home had plenty of room. Also, in late June, the creek was absolutely fantastic. Everyone loved the place.

Peaceful vacation

We had a great time! House was easy to check in, clean and everything we needed!! The river was perfect for the kids, played in the water and floated down the river. Once in the gated community the roads are narrow and curvy but go slow and it’s fine! We have never returned to the same place twice on vacation but we are already planning our next trip to Edgewater!! Highly recommend

AMAZING LADIES TRIP

The cabin, the patios, the lake, the bonfire made for such a great time for our Ladies Trip this year. Ten of us ladies, some family, some friends enjoyed ourselves so much. We were disappointed to get there and find the hot tub was broken, but we didn't let it hinder our fun. We absolutely loved it there!! ❤️

Dianne, we are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Edgewater rental cabin in Ellijay, it's a gorgeous luxury property!! Definitely the perfect spot to gather with large groups of friends or family members. We do apologize about the hot tub and hopefully the $250 refund will help to compensate for not being able to use it during your stay :( We hope to see you all again the next time you visit the beautiful North Georgia Mountains!

Perfect.

Had a great time staying at this house. We have stayed a several different cabin in this area thru out the years, this was our favorite one. Plenty of room for 3 families, and the amenities made it perfect. Will be staying here again.

Made many great memories here on our family reunion trip! The yard was perfect for all our activities, basketball court was a hit and proximity to the river was great!

Beautiful!

The home and property are beautiful. The house was very well appointed and we really enjoyed the room of the house. The neighborhood is a bit hard to navigate but the destination is well worth it! We will definitely stay here again!!

Girls trip

The “trip” through the neighborhood to get to the cabin was lengthy, and curvey, and the directions provided were not even close. The cabin though was very nice. The windows and the outside needs a good cleaning though.

Holly, so sorry you had trouble getting to the cabin. It's located inside the Coosawattee River Resort, which has well maintained roads throughout. The main stretch is paved and then there is some dirt/gravel to get to the individual cabins. The Edgewater has been renting for the past 10 years and the directions are spot on. We can honestly say, no one has ever gotten lost going there unless they tried to use GPS. Which we highly advice against. As you mentioned, the cabin itself is gorgeous and it sits right on the river. Has a hot tub, firepit, pool table, extra large dock plus a basketball court. We definitely feel a 3 Star rating is very unfair because you had trouble driving to the cabin.

Great fun @Edgewater on Coosawattee River

We had such fun at the River for Spring Break! The cabin was spacious and the basement was great for the kiddos. The best part was the court and firepit next to the river! Kids played foursquare every night til after dark. We'd love to come back sometime soon!

Great home with lots of space!

The view was great and the home had lots of space for our group! The oven/stove doesn't work properly. The management company representative told me she was aware of a problem (so why wasn't it handled?). She said a repair person would come out the following day and that did not happen, nor did she call to advise why not. I left her a message about kayaks we were supposed to have access to, per notes in the home, but she never called me back. Overall the house was great. However, the management company could use better communication.

Hello Kathy, we are so happy that this great river cabin was able to accommodate your group! As far as the stove/oven, we had previous guests at the cabin who did not report an issue. We appreciate you letting us know that the ignitor went out during your stay. You reported it and it's already been repaired, the parts did take a few days, we apologize for that. We do not advertise that this property has any type of water craft available to use during a guests stay. The note in the cabin is for guests that bring their own tubes or kayaks. We work very hard to insure that each guest has a wonderful experience at our cabins. Take care and we hope to see you again in the future!

Wonderful spot!

We used this cabin for a staff retreat for our gym staff. The living space was open and inviting. The kitchen was a great size. The views were awesome. The basketball court we used as our spot to break out into groups to work on coaching and then a workout. The river is awesome! We got to cool off after our workout. I would suggest water shoes or chaco sandals, the rocks are slippery. The fire pit was a bonus as well! There were even horse shoe pits! Things I missed in the items provided, but wanted to note, are that you will need to bring and soap for the bathrooms, as well as soap for the kitchen sink. Our only critique would be that the windows looking over the river, could have used a good cleaning. But we also understood that we were in the woods in the mountains. Seriously the stay was a 10 out of 10 and we mostly likely come back to stay again!
