Perfect Valentine Getaway for Couples

We enjoyed everything about our stay. It was a great last minute getaway and the cabin was exceptional. The extra attention to details in every space made the stay even better. The cabin has so many cozy spaces. We especially loved the decor, the cozy blankets, fireplace, Bluetooth speakers, kitchen and chairs overlooking the river below, the bedroom space, the extra doggie treats and bed, and even the emerald green cabinet pulls. We especially enjoyed the covered bridge being lit up on our way in and out each day too. A very quiet place to retreat and enjoy nature. Highly recommended.

Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025

A Week of Peace and Tranquility

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Riverside Nest is beautiful - well appointed, great floor plan, very comfortable and so much natural light. The large windows overlooking the river and the skylights are a big plus. We enjoyed our peaceful week listening to the river, and so did our two dogs (our elderly dog appreciated the one story cabin). We saw deer, and even a bear! Thank you so much!

Home away from Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Place was wonderful in every aspect. From the drive up to the cabin and daily deer we saw. The cabin was fully prepared with utensils pans washing machine wifi not that you need to be on line much. The nights were full of beautiful sounds and tranquility. You get use to the katydids and the music that they produces ties the river for the perfect sound to sleep to. We wish we could of stayed longer.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I cant say enough about this cabin and location. The privacy was amazing. I loved having a fully loaded kitchen. I cooked all my meals there. The fire pit and hot tub were top notch. The only thing I would recommend is to maybe grade the drive way where to take the sharp right leaving the cabin. You can tell it's getting a bit slick. I will definitely be back again!

Riverside Love Nest in the Trees

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing time at The Riverside Nest! Our little ShihTzu Lu-Lu Belle did too! Everything we needed was there in the kitchen! We felt very comfortable! We enjoyed hearing the Ellijay River and seeing the wildlife! We saw deer daily. We did the 101 stair challenge! We loved the location. The owners have decorated the cabin so beautifully and whimsically! The bed was very comfortable! The linens, towels & robes were all very soft and generous ! The cabin was just the right size! We enjoyed fresh ground coffee every morning and Lu-Lu loved her treats that were there just for her! I enjoyed the coloring book & pencils! We sat out by the fire nightly with the lights. It felt like we were in a tree house! We had an amazing time and look forward to next year! Thanks for having us!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I can't say enough about how awesome our trip was. When you live in a tourist town such as ours it is imperative to get away for some peace and quiet. Everything was perfect. Sliding Rock Cabins is a joy to work with. We didn't have any issues at all getting into our cabin, it was exactly as stated on the Internet and met or exceeded all of our expectations. We will be booking again very soon. Thank you so much for providing us a much needed peaceful vacation. We will be back very soon.

Fun on the river

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This has to be one of our favorite rentals! This was the first time we have ever been to the Ellijay and Blue Ridge area and it was great! The house is secluded and right on the river. We spent the evening with our chairs in the river. Such a relaxing and peaceful time! The rental had plenty of room for my husband and I and our puppins. We love sitting in the cabin listening to the river through the windows. The kitchen has everything we needed as well. We will definitely be back!

Lovely Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay at cozy Riverside Nest! We spent our evenings on the back porch taking in the beautiful view/sounds over the water, enjoying the fire pit, and watching the many birds in the trees surrounding the cabin. Highly recommend! The only note I’d make to future renters traveling with dogs is that the “fenced yard” is a gravel path around the back of the house. There is no fenced grass and no enclosed space for medium/large pups to run/play off leash. We totally appreciated their very welcoming dog policy and extra special touches (treats, waste bags, bowls, bed, etc) - just elaborating on the fenced yard mentioned in the listing so that others traveling with dogs can prepare accordingly. Our dogs did enjoy taking a leashed walk down the stairs to the water! Thanks for a great stay!

The magical Treehouse

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From the moment we saw the cabin tucked high in the mountains with a view to die for,I knew we were staying at the right place. The cabin was immaculate with everything we needed to enjoy our stay with our two fur babies! I got to relax to a beautiful thunderstorm with the lightning coming through the sky lights. The hot tub was another bonus because I had a failed back surgery and it made the pain bearable,the comfortable robes after enjoying the hot tub were the icing on the cake!. We used the walking sticks to hike each day,thank you for that. We enjoyed evenings sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine. Saw deer everyday we were there!! I did make it down to the creek,walking slowly and enjoying all the nature around me. We had a wonderful week and will definitely return. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful cabin with us.

The perfect getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the best time at Riverside Nest. We will be back ! We enjoyed sitting our chairs in the river and taking walks with our dog. We saw several deer and other wildlife. The amount of amenities offered was incredible and we took advantage of the kitchen and grill the entire time we w there. The only cons about the place: Given directions were very confusing. Once we’re were there it was fine, but make sure you route your trip like we did. Make sure you have a good vehicle. The roads are dirt/rock once you turn off and can be steep. The only road we had difficulty with was the one going to the cabin. It is very steep and has ruts. On the way out we spun tires, but thankfully made it out. We will definitely be back. I only give an honest review so that the next stayers are prepared.

Beautiful cabin, very dangerous roads, not a great yard for dogs

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin itself is beautiful, well-furnished, lots of little details thought out like games, movies,and books. The amenities are nice and the kitchen is well-stocked. I wish we had been warned in advance just how dangerously steep and narrow the mountain road to the cabin is as we would have driven a different vehicle. We are coming from Florida and not used to these roads, and there was a very steep drop-off. The cabin is basically built into the side of a mountain. The stairs to the riverfront are also terrifying. We didn't feel comfortable leaving the cabin to go do anything once we got there and risk damage to our small SUV. It is a very picturesque and beautiful area and I love the picture windows and the gas fireplace. Our dogs enjoyed exploring the area but the fenced in yard is not really great. The fence posts are too wide in some areas so we couldn't even safely let them off leash without risking them running off and falling into a ravine. I also did not like being asked to do so many housekeeping items (stripping the bed, washing and putting away all the dishes, starting the laundry, etc.) when I am paying over $200 a night to stay somewhere. The checkout instructions really added to the stress of us packing and leaving. It is a beautiful area and a beautiful cabin. We should have chosen one with a better yard for letting our three dogs out off leash, but I don't think we will be going back.
