Riverview Lodge, Blue Ridge, Georgia ...

Riverview Lodge is a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath luxury Toccoa River Cabin Rental perched high on a ridge with a spectacular view of the winding whitewaters of the Toccoa River.

The mountains of Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina provide a beautiful backdrop as you listen to the rushing waters of the river echoing from below.

A short hike down to our mountain lot below, you will find a 200-foot staircase or a private hiking/walking trail that will take you all the way down to the railroad tracks to watch the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway go by, or go to the river's edge to do some trout flyfishing right where the Cherokee Indians built their rock Fish Trap, or maybe go tubing or canoeing, or just do some exploring.

Riverview Lodge is a luxuriously spacious lodge with sleeping capacity of up to 10 guests.

Even when you're inside the lodge, you will feel as though you are outside with the spectacular 2-story prow of solid glass and beams overlooking the rushing river and the mountains of Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina.

Riverview's Main Level consists of a King Master Suite with doors opening up to a covered porch which houses the hot tub (see photo below); a living area with stone gas-log fireplace; the impressive 2-story prow of glass and beams; and a spacious gourmet kitchen and dining area with doors opening up to a covered porch perfect for al fresco dining ... all overlooking the breathtaking view of river and mountains, along with a "sea of trees."

Upstairs there is a Loft which is the media/library area.

There are TWO Bedroom Suites off each side of the loft which contain queen size beds and private baths.

Each bedroom upstairs has its own private deck giving you a panoramic view of the North Georgia Mountains and the Toccoa River.

The Basement Level provides an extra Queen Bedroom and Bath ...

We provide everything you will need for your stay except for food, drinks, and personal items ...

    We had such a wonderful time! Your house is beautiful, warm and comfortable. It's so peaceful here. The view is spectacular. We spent a day at Amicalola Falls which was a great hike. We spent a day at the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, TN which was awesome. We also went to Ruby Falls, which the kids really enjoyed. We took a ride on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway and waved to Riverview Lodge as we rode by!

    Our last day we went back to Chattanooga and rode the Tennessee Valley Railway (short ride) and then rode the Incline Railway, then visited the Chattanooga Choo-Choo Hotel - great fun for the train buffs!

    Our nights were spent in the hot tub, gazing at the stars. We slept great here, the beds are so comfortable!

    We greatly appreciate you allowing us to share in your home! It's truly special here. Thank you for everything!

    Best regards, The Carlsons from IL
