Wonderful Location

We loved this cabin. Immaculate, well equipped and great spot. Easy to walk up and down 188 steps to the Toccoa River. We will be back!

Fantastic Time at Riverview Lodge and Outlaw Ridge

We rented both Outlaw Ridge and RiverView Lodge for our Family Gathering. Both houses are spacious with 5 master bedrooms each. We had a fabulous time in the Game Rooms, TV Rooms, using the access to the Tocca River (we brought our own tubes and rafts!), plus we used the fire pit each night! The houses offer high end furnishing and bedding - each family member was thrilled! We will cherish our time at these 'cabins' and hope to return soon!

A nice cabin to get away from it all.

The cabin was lovely and well appointed. It is tricky to get into and out of in the rain. You have a beautiful view of the river. However, a hike down to th rd river is not easy and the last 10 feet to the railroad tracks is dangerous. If you are looking for a.place to nestle.in and hang.ouf with family and friends it is a great place.

Beautiful home, but unresponsive management

We have rented many properties through Home away, but this is the first time I’ve ever had to leave a negative review. This home was very pretty, clean, and had an amazing location. Unfortunately on the evening of our arrival, we quickly noticed that it was freezing inside the house, and that our heating system wasn’t working. We called the management company and maintenance line multiple times but did not receive a call back until about 12 hours later. The maintenance person that finally returned our call seemed highly annoyed with us, but he assured my husband that the heat was working, and that he would set the heat (which he could do remotely via Nest system) and have it stay on for the duration of our stay. That night as the temperature started to drop, our heating system did not cut on again. The temperature outside was 30°, so anyone can imagine how cold it got inside the home. Again we placed multiple calls to the management company, and maintenance line, and also I sent emails to the management company. To this day, and it’s 2 Days after our stay at the home ended, we have not received any communication in return!

Can’t beat that view

Communication with the rental company was always timely, thorough, and professional. Getting there: I used Waze and it mirrored the separate directions they sent us. Note, this cabin is up hill and you do drive on some non-paved surfaces. Arriving: First thing you notice is the view. Cabin is up fairly high. View of the river and Blue Ridge mountains is stunning. Also, pretty cool that the train runs along the river. Also noticed some trash and a blue tarp outside the cabin. Don’t diminish the view, but was noticeable. Access through the front door was easy with the code we were provided. Settling in: unlike most cabins, every room in this cabin had an en suite bathroom. So, our friends could pick from any room. Watch your step on those stairs from the main floor up or down. Speaking of stairs, our friends walked down to the water. It was not simple and they stayed the stairs are a bit rickety. From the cabin you go down some stairs, walk a switchback, then hit some more stairs. We had hoped to do an outdoor fire with wood, but this proved unrealistic with the rain and muddy terrain. Even so, we enjoyed the fire in the cabin and in the back deck. What we did: first, we cooked a lot in what may be the largest cabin kitchen I’ve ever seen. Also, the dining table was a great size for our meals and card games. We spent a day in downtown Blue Ridge. Get there early and check out all the shops. We watched the sun set over the mountains every day. Amazing!

Problems

The cabin is beautiful, but we ran into a few problems during our stay. There are issues with plumbing, as our first morning the toilet on the second floor leaked dirty water into the kitchen all over the breakfast we had just cooked. The water pressure is very low. The water would not work in the sinks at random times. In addition to plumbing problems, the WiFi wasn’t working, the TV remotes weren’t working, Apple TV wasn’t working, the lighting outside at night is minimal, there isn’t enough seating in the main room for a big group to watch TV... the amenities are provided, but the toilet paper is 1 ply and the shampoo and soap provided are very small, and don’t last long enough, especially for a big group of people. Also, I wouldn’t say this is a pet friendly cabin. They charge a lot per pet per night( more than for people) and extra cleaning fees per pet. This extra fee seems unreasonable after already paying so much per night. Furthermore, there wasn’t a need for extra cleaning that required the high charge. Also, You charged extra per person after 4 people and extra cleaning fees per person. With a cabin that sleeps 11, it is deceptive to put the base rate at 4 people when you’re most likely going to be paying well over the base rate. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The view and tall windows are stunning. But for the price, we didn’t feel like it was worth it, and will not be renting from you again.

Lovely place but little privacy and NO water pressure

Riverview Lodge does not disappoint when it comes to the views and the overall beauty of the cabin. The cabin was well stocked with all the basics and the beds were clean and comfortable. However there were a few drawbacks... to say the water pressure is bad is a total understatement. The only place there was any at all was in the washing machines. Washing dishes was a chore as there was rarely more than a trickle coming out of the tap. Sometimes when you turned it on it took up to 20 seconds for anything to come out at all. It took over 30 minutes to fill the jetted tub in the main floor master. Showers were a joke and if there was ANY water running anywhere else in the house nothing came out at all. If you’re looking for seclusion, this place is right on top of three neighbors and the builders have left debris all around. For what we spent we expected a little more. We still enjoyed our vacation because well, it was a vacation.

FUN WEEKEND, BUT...

1. You show photos of a ping pong table, but there is not one. 2. You show the hot tub outside the main floor master bedroom, however it has been relocated to the lowest level of the house. 3. The water pressure is deplorable..I tried filling a tub in the basement level, and no one had ANY water while I was doing this. 4. There are not enough pieces of silverware for the amount of people that the cabin holds. We had 9 guests, and had to run the dishwasher after every meal, and still did not have enough spoons. 5. The new dining table outside on the main balcony, which is gorgeous, never worked. It has a fire top, but does not function. 6. The refrigerator is awfully small for a cabin with this many bedrooms. In addition, a knob was broken on the cooktop. New appliances would do a world of improvement in the beautiful kitchen! We LOVED the cabin itself, loved the bedrooms, the linens, and the views. Please think about addressing these small items and correct the listing, and we may make this our annual cabin!

Great Christmas vaca

Rental company worked with me on changes I had to make at last minute. Love this house! Would have liked an easier path to the river. And would have liked a sitting area around the fire pit...

Beautiful view

Loved the view, was nice to be on river but steps and concrete pavers needs to be fixed. Would like to know where other path to get down to river was, never found! The air conditioning was a major problem, first of all every time you set it to a lower temperature and got the cabin to a comfortable Temperature and left for a couple of hours you came back to it on 79 which is very stuffy. It never stayed regulated. Had to get up many time though night to Adjust because it’s set to a schedule! We had all fans on and had to buy more to keep cool. Water was another problem with taking showers! No water pressure when everyone is trying to take a shower! We had a great time and the house is very spacious just needs air and water fixed!

Beautiful home with a rough star

First, I don't have the vocabulary to describe the breathtaking view upon entering the home. Everything is built to cater to the incredible view. From the balconies to the large window, every room has a view of the Toccoa River and the mountains. My family and I had a wonderful time exploring the surrounding area and would absolutely come back to this property. However, this home's shortcomings are extremely obvious. After taking in the breathtaking view, finding my breath was nearly impossible because the house was 93 degrees. We arrived at 6 PM, and it didn't reach 72 degrees until well past midnight. Our first night was spent sweating and miserable. After we thought the house was cool and set to a reasonable temperature, the house reach 78 degrees by noon ever though the thermostat was set to 70! Again, it didn't reach a reasonable temperature until around midnight. This house is entirely too big for one A/C unit. If you love beautiful views and warm temperatures or if you're out and about and don't plan on being in the cabin too often, then this is perfect for you. The cabin is BEAUTIFUL, and I'd love to come back if the owners install another A/C unit. I'm not kidding when I tell you that my entire family sweated themselves to sleep.

Hope to Return

Gorgeous cabin! When you first walk in through the main door, you can't help but to be amazed by the gorgeous view of the mountains and the river. Soft jazz music welcomed us home for the weekend! Another thing that doesn't come across in the pictures is how clean the cabin is. You can tell the cabin is well loved and taken care of. There was not a single dust bunny in any of the rooms! We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday weekend. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Cabin

The cabin was very comfortable for our 2 families and the layout suited us perfectly. The living room was such a fun place to relax and take in the incredible views. Although it's a trek to get down and back up from the river, its definitely worth it. I can imagine the river access would be awesome in the summer or with older children/teenagers. We made several trips into Blue Ridge for supplies without any issues at all with the roads or navigation. The kids really enjoyed the gem mining nearby as well as the local bowling alley. We had a truly wonderful weekend getaway.

Couples Retreat

This weekend my friends and I stayed at Riverview Lodge. This cabin is amazing. It offers 5br and 5.5 ba. With a group of 10 we had plenty of room. The views of the river and the mountain from this cabin are spectacular. We took a hike on the trail and relaxed in the gazebo next to the river. It snowed while we were visiting which was an added bonus. We fired up the fire pit outside and laughed and talked for hours. This was a special trip for 5 couples. The rooms are very spacious and we'll furnished. All amenities are included with the cabin. I would recommend this place to couples, large families or anyone who wants a little taste of country paradise. We will be returning very soon!!!!
