Gaze out at the Chattahoochee River from just about every room. Open the windows and listen to the rippling flow of the water. Breathe the fresh air and enjoy the view from the deck or from the hot tub!

Should you decide to cook and eat at the cabin, the cabinets are filled with all the cookware, dinnerware and glassware you will need. Bring your favorite coffee pods for the Keurig coffee maker.
The cozy couch is the perfect spot to snuggle up near the gas fireplace on chilly evenings. There is a streaming TV for your entertainment, so don't forget to bring your channel subscription login information.

We had a wonderful time! It was a great experience!

What a nice property right on the water. We comfortably slept 5 there and 6 wouldn't be hard at all. Loved the rustic theme and the deck overlooking the river. Bring a coffee maker and a non stick pan is you are cooking but there are many places to eat in town. In the master bedroom we loved the pillows and mattress. We took the best nap with the door open listening to the river. We will definitely be back!

Very clean cabin, and it’s nestled right on the river. We enjoyed that. Things to consider: outdated kitchen, but everything did work. Not enough kitchen utensils, but we made it work. TV in den was on the smaller side, but it did work fine. I did know we would have to climb stairs to get inside, but it was just too much with luggage & groceries. Upstairs toilet could be tricky to flush, but it worked. I also wish the back porch would have been screened in. The hot tub worked fine, but most of the lights were blown in it. All in all, this was an accommodating cabin, but it needs upgrading.
