Chestatee River Cabin

This adorable riverside home on the Chestatee is just minutes from historic downtown Dahlonega, wineries and wedding venues. Only 7 miles from GA 400, the location is central to everything you would want to do and see. Enjoy the scenery and wildlife from the large covered deck, rain or shine. You can hear the peaceful sound of nearby rapids from the deck. Songbirds, as well as duck, blue herons, deer and the elusive river otter make an appearance from time to time. No Smoking Indoors, NO Pets & NO Parties or Events.

We come here every year and we love the view and hospitality. Mr Bruce and Lisa are fantastic people. We fish, lounge in the river, and explore the river. We even saw a Bear this year. Such a wonderful place to spend the vacation.

If you are looking for a beautiful quiet relaxing spot then this is it. My husband and I stayed with some close friends and we loved it so much that we returned back again this year. The owners, Bruce and Lisa are right next door and are wonderful host. The cabin has everything you need for a great stay. The cleaniest cabin we have ever stayed in. Can not wait to go back next year.

Great host and amazing cabin
Bruce and his wife do an amazing job of thinking of everything! All you need to do is bring your bags and groceries! Amazing view on the river, every amenity you could think of to include marshmallow holders for smores. We so enjoyed the back porch and take a walk along the shore down where the rocks are and enjoy the sounds! We went downtown and enjoyed all the shops and fall decorations. Thankyou for sharing your piece of heaven with us. A great girls weekend after dealing with 2 hurricanes!
