Cabin near the Ohoopee River

Need to get away from it all for a few days? Welcome to our cabin, "Highwater Hideaway". Perfect couples getaway bordered by a beautiful freshwater creek on one side and the Ohoopee River on the other, offering a private UTV/ATV trail through the woods leading to private sandbar access. The majority of wood used in construction of this cabin was hand milled on site. Bring your own UTV or golf cart (or rent one) to cruise the majestic cypress, white oak and palmetto Ohoopee River bottom land. Hike on the banks of the Ohoopee River and Beaver Creek. Birdwatch on the nature and wildlife trail as we have abundant owl, hawk, turkey and deer. Forage the palmettos and the riverbank for chanterelle mushrooms to accompany your dinner. Roast marshmallows on the sandbar.

Our river is known for white sand, black water and famous redbreast fishing so bring your bait and tackle to catch cold freshwater redbreast, bream, white perch and bass. Or just sit in the sand with your toes in water that's refreshingly cool year round.

After your outdoor adventures, return to your cabin to rinse the sand off in your outdoor shower and swing or rock on the front porch. Audiophiles will enjoy the record player and classic record collection. Sit by a campfire in your yard and stargaze.

Home is fully stocked and includes high speed wifi service.

***A starting supply of paper goods, laundry detergent and dish soap are available. We greatly appreciate our guests helping us replenish these items as they are used.***

***No parties or events are allowed without owners prior consent and approval.***

***The cabin itself is located on 36 acres which extends to the Ohoopee River. The cabin itself is not directly on the riverbank. While you can technically walk to our private sandbar (8 tenths of a mile) a UTV, 4 wheeler or golf cart is highly preferred, especially if you are taking chairs, towels, coolers, etc to the water.***

***This property is located approximately 2 miles down a dirt road. At times, a truck or 4x4 vehicle is needed. The road can be very sandy, muddy and/or rough on occasion. Consider the road as part of the adventure.***

***We are in the woods and there are bugs in the woods. We recommend bringing mosquito repellant and sunscreen. We prefer deet free varieties and citronella bands. Sunscreen with repellant combined also is nice at times.***

Please let us know in advance of your stay if you'd like to rent a golf cart. Cart rental is currently $30/day.

You are welcome to build a fire on the sandbar but please don't cut or damage live trees on the property as it has been selectively thinned. Feel free to use any downed trees and or limbs for sandbar fires.

Please note that the main bedroom downstairs is lacking a door. We special ordered a door that never arrived and in the interim, we decided we liked the way it worked without a door! Never fear though, the bathroom does have a locking door.
