Beautiful home in a peaceful setting, we were reluctant to leave every day to explore! Felt like a luxury escape that somehow absorbed 6 kids seamlessly so parent and kids alike had a wonderful time. Home itself was well appointed and had delightful interior design. Will definitely stay again.

Our family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. It was perfect for all 11 of us with room to spare. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that we needed and the layout of the home allowed for us to have time together or branch off for our own space. We had great communication with the property owner, who was very accommodating for our family. We hope to have the opportunity to stay here again.

Best Blue Ridge Stay!

I loved staying at River Run! The house was so well decorated and still kept the feeling of coziness you want from a mountain cabin. The drive was easy, the hot tub lovely and the sound of the river was simply the best. 10/10 recommend.

Our families had an excellent vacation at the river run cabin. The place is very nice, the setting is amazing! Very comfortable and all the amenities needed. Location was great only 10 minutes to either blue ridge or ellijay. We would 100% recommend this property for vacationing.

We went for 4 days for fall break and it was wonderful! Had our 4 kids (ages 2,4,7,9) and there was so much to do just at the property. We fished, we had a fire and cooked s’mores, tons of games to play in the home, all the cooking supplies, went apple picking nearby and visited the Bigfoot museum. The home was lovely with amazing views and space to spread out. Would love to come back again!

We had a wonderful stay at River Run. It was the perfect home for our multi-generational family to gather for an early Thanksgiving. The house was beautiful and comfortable, with plenty of space to relax, play games, and watch TV. We especially loved the large hot tub, outdoor swings, fire pit, porch, fishing on the river, and the grounds for Bucket Golf. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We hope to return in the summer months!

Best cabin we have stayed in

My husband and I wanted to celebrate his retirement and we found the PERFECT cabin to do so. Not only is the cabin beautiful and has everything you might need but the river in the backyard is amazing. Sitting by the fire pit or being in the hot tub hearing the sound of the river was so peaceful. We will definitely be back again.

Stunning home! Awesome home and parcel layout for a group or family, fun activities inside and outside the house for kids & adults, and conveniently located between Ellijay & Blue Ridge. The neighborhood and surrounding area is nice for walking and outdoor activities. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking and baking necessities to make whatever is needed. Some parts of the home show a bit of wear, but that almost makes it homier and more welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Stunning

This cabin was a dream. Beautiful views, stunning design, and very close to downtown Blue Ridge. My favorite spot was by the fire in the living room, with the sliding door opened, coffee or wine (depending on the time of day) in hand, and the river noise in the background. The owners were very responsive and made our stay so special. We will definitely be back!

River Run in Cherry Log,Ga is a little piece of heaven on earth. The cabin itself , and all the surrounding nature is exceptionally beautiful, cozy, and relaxing. The owners are incredibly nice, very helpful, and very informative. We had a wonderful time, and look forward to a return trip in the future. I have already told many friends about the cabin and will continue to recommend it. Booking was easy, and check in and out was simple as well. Definitely can't wait for another relaxing stay at River Run. Already missing the relaxing sounds of the river while sitting on the porch.

Perfect getaway

We had an amazing time at River Run. The property and home is prettier in person.. the photos do not do it justice! Check in was a breeze and David was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The location was perfect.. no steep mountain to drive up, lovely river sounds 24/7, 15 minute drive to Blue Ridge and 20 minute drive to Elijay. If you’re looking for a new place to stay River Run is perfect for a friends and family getaway!

Best Blue Ridge Getaway!!

This was my second stay at River Run and it did not disappoint... perfect for families with young kids OR a girls weekend -- this property is impeccable. The location on the river is unbeatable, the views and sounds instantly calm you, and the hosts have thought of everything needed for a great stay. Fantastic kitchen, comfy beds, all the things that count. Great communication too, which doesn't always happen with rental properties. They were proactive with all communication and we had zero issues. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this property!!

Beautiful and well organized cabin

We gathered our family to gather from across the states, one of my sons, still in the military, for a rare get together. When I was looking for a cabin, this one jumped out at me perfect gathering Place for a family with several children. This was one of the most well organized stay’s we’ve had and met all of our expectations. Honors communicated with us from start to finish making sure we have everything we needed. The gentle moving Creek was a perfect place to cool off or fish. The boys caught one 😃. Thank you for a special time.
