Our family had the best last minute getaway at the Riverfront cabin! Our host made it quick and easy to book. Our children absolutely loved waking up to the river just feet away and it’s where we would spend our mornings. The cabin had everything we could need for our stay and made our Christmas a memorable one.

My wife and I went on a 31st Anniversary trip!! We had an absolute blast!! Loved the rustic cabin!! Everything was clean and cozy!! Very close to Toccoa River Restaurant!! Cabin located on Toccoa River! We shopped, rode the Scenic Railway, wine tasting at Bear Claw Winery, had dinner at The Black Sheep that was amazing! Hiked to Falls Branch water fall and had a picnic about 3 miles from Cabin! Even drove 40 minutes one day to Murphy, NC to the Casino!! The scenery is amazing! So much fun!! Thank you to the owners for the great hospitality!!

We had a wonderful stay in this cabin! It was clean and very comfortable. We had great communication with the manager. The location along the River was fantastic! But it was also very close to so many amazing activities and areas to see. We give this our highest recommendation for anyone to stay and will be back ourselves to enjoy it again!

Cabin is close enough to the highway to hear loud vehicles but really not a lot of traffic. Back porch with large swing bed was a wonderful place to relax and listen to the water cascading over the rock in the river below. Very clean and well furnished. Would recommend to others.

Perfect Romantic Getaway

We celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary in Blue Ridge. The Riverhouse was perfect for a romantic getaway. The property listing was accurate, and actually exceeded our expectations when we arrived. The Host responded to questions in a prompt fashion and was very friendly. The house was clean and well equipped for a quick trip or longer-term stay. It was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend!

River Gem

This river home is a perfect mountain getaway. It’s close enough to town for all the conveniences, but far enough away to give a sense of escape. Being so close to the Aska Trail System was super nice. We did a different hike every morning. Relaxing by the river at the end of the day was wonderful. There’s a restaurant and a general store a mile down the road. Great vacation home!

Beautiful Location

Location was absolutely beautiful and very convenient to shops and multiple hiking locations. Well appointed kitchen and relaxing screened in porch. Our favorite part was eating around the campfire by the river, and our daughter loved exploring up the small stream beside the property. It is a bit of a steep walk down to the fire pit area, so just be aware of that if you have smaller kids or older members of the family. Property manager was very quick to respond when we had questions.

About the host

Hosted by Joy By Design

Host profile image
We love creating spaces that feel like a breath of fresh air — places where guests can truly unwind and reconnect. We manage and design boutique short-term rentals across Georgia and beyond, each one chosen for its natural beauty and sense of peace.

Hosting allows us to share that joy with others — from morning coffee on the porch to evenings by the fire pit under the stars. Whether it’s your first visit to Blue Ridge or a return trip to your favorite spot in the mountains, we hope our cabin feels like home the moment you arrive.

Why they chose this property

This cabin sits in the heart of the Aska Adventure Area, where you can hike, fish, kayak, or just sit by the water and breathe. Downtown Blue Ridge is just a short drive away for a day of shopping, dining, or exploring local art galleries. It’s a place that still feels untouched, where time slows down and nature takes center stage — and that’s exactly why we love sharing it with others.
