Prior to the full description of this cabin, we want our future guests to know that we are taking extra precautions! Our EXCELLENT cleaner spend 3-4+ hours between guests, during which time they allow fresh air to penetrate the space.

Whether you are here for the famed Toccoa River trout fishing, hiking and sight-seeing in the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, or a romantic weekend getaway, River Valley Retreat is your dream vacation spot. Located on the banks of the Toccoa River, across from the Toccoa Heights area, River Valley Retreat is only 15 minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge, 20 minutes from Aska Adventure Area and 30 minutes from Harrah’s Cherokee Casino.
A true retreat, this renovated (2015 & 2022) rustic cabin sits upon a scenic hillside with beautiful views of the neighboring mountains and the Toccoa River. The magnificent mountain pine log covered deck is perfect for a relaxing evening in a rocking chair, or in the hot tub taking in the majestic scenery of the North Georgia mountains. The three acre property also includes a private dock with direct access to the river and a one acre riverside meadow, perfect for picnicking. It also includes a shared fire pit for relaxing and roasting marshmallows in the evening.
Upon entering the cabin, you are greeted by a western motif entryway and dining area with a pass-through to the kitchen. The artwork features a passion for an equestrian lifestyle in the mountains, in calming blues and greens, accented by unique mountain décor. The main living area features new furniture (2022) - a plush couch , a big comfy lounge chair with a leather topped ottoman and luxurious throw pillows, - TV with cable, including the sports channels, and a DVD player. For cooler seasons, there’s a real wood burning stove, perfect for curling up to for a romantic evening, or just exchanging fishing stories from your day on the river. The adjacent kitchen features a granite countertop, beautiful natural hickory cabinetry, Keurig coffee maker, and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher.

The Master bedroom features a luxurious high headboard bed with a pillowtop, Gatsby mattress. The suite includes a large closet and an additional half bath. We raised the ceiling, added some rustic trim and a little bling for an enhanced romantic vibe. New Smart TV and new linens package rounds out our new bedroom!(2022)
The lower Toccoa River has earned a reputation among anglers as one of the best trout rivers in north Georgia...It's long, deep pools separated by rocky shoals make the flow perfect for both trout fishing and floating. Due to its relatively large size, it is a favored water for fly-fishing enthusiasts, and in 2015 it was designated by the DNR as a year round trout river. It is stocked weekly from April through July 4th, and twice monthly thereafter. You’ll be pulling out mostly rainbow trout, but there are also large numbers of brown trout and a small population of brook trout.
Area activities include fishing, tubing, kayaking, trail rides, Harrah’s Valley River Casino, hiking, bird watching, fall leaf viewing, fine dining, Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, and zip lining. All within approximately 30 minutes or less.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this very clean and cozy cabin. Downtown Blue Ridge is about 25 min away and we really enjoyed Harvest on Main, Blue Ridge Creamery and the Twisted Tomato. There are plenty of shops for home goods, mountain and fishing outfitters, and souvenir gift shops.
Great place to relax close to town for shopping , quiet and great animal watching.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The dishwashers was left for us to unload when we arrived. The bed was horribly uncomfortable. The only vent in the bedroom is blocked by the bed, so sleeping was difficult due to being hot. There is no fan in the bedroom to help circulates the air.The good thing is that the owners were very kind and helpful when asked questions.The cabin is close to the river where you just walk across the property to fish or enjoy the river. The road/area was not busy. Very private.

Thanks so much for your feedback on our property. We strive to make everyone's vacation a great one! I have notified our cleaners that they need to pay more attention to details, such as unloading the dishwasher prior to guests' arrival. TO OUR FUTURE GUESTS: One of the hardest things for hosts to do is pick out a mattress that every single person likes. Impossible actually, but we have done our best by picking a semi-firm, higher-end mattress and we replace them much more often that you would in your own home. (Beauty Rest, I believe) We actually love this mattress and thinks it sleeps well, as do the majority of our guests. As for ventilation, there are 3 windows in the bedroom, 2 of which are screened so guests can let in fresh mountain air and breeze during their stay.
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The cabin was extremely clean and fit our needs. I just thought it was a little closer to the water. The owners were great to work with and always answered our questions right away.
Exactly what we were looking for. Secluded, but not far from town, wood burning fireplace, hot tub. Cooked Thanksgiving Dinner for my wife and I. Then sat in front of a nice fire
Exactly as pictured! Property was super clean and smelled clean as well! The area was so peaceful. Owners are extremely nice! I will definitely stay here again!

Why they chose this property
We purchased this property in 2014 and completely renovated it in 2015, and updated it again in early 2022 - all with the vacation rental market in mind. The log front porch with cedar siding was created to add significant curb appeal from the road and an amazing place to spend the majority of your vacation. We could sit out there for hours, sipping some wine, eating some cheese and crackers, and lounging in the hot tub.
This property has the perfect mix of amenities and location! The Toccoa River is amazing - so clean and refreshing when it's hot out! The fishing is incredible and we are located at a part in the river where it is wide, with a few deep pockets for fish, and privately owned, so it is not fished as heavily as other sections of the river. On hot day, sitting on the dock, dipping our toes in the water or maybe venturing out on a tubing ride - it's heavenly!
What makes this property unique
It's rare to find a property this large - 3 acres - and this beautiful - within minutes of all kinds of mountain attractions. Blue Ridge is 15 minutes away and has some of the best restaurants and dining options you'll find any where, including a much larger city. We love Harvest on Main,, and Black Sheep for better fare, but the little advertised Masseria (owned by same restaurateur as Harvest), is a gem for a fraction of the price. Also love La Pizzeria in Morganton. Take time out for yourself and walk the amazing shops on W. Main Street. You'll find unique gifts for any occasion and it's easy to stock up for the Holiday Season, even when it's July.
For a quick grocery run, Copper Hill/ McCaysville has a great little IGA about 4 miles away. We also love Rolling Thunder tubing company and browsing some of the shops can also be a nice past time.
Murphy, NC is located about 30 minutes away, including the new Harrah's Valley River Casino. Great for a rainy day past time.
