Riverview Lodge is a 5 bedroom - 5.5 bath luxury Toccoa River Cabin Rental in Blue Ridge, perched high on a ridge with a spectacular view of the winding whitewaters of the Toccoa River. Riverview Lodge is located in close proximity (along the Toccoa River) to Fallen Timber Lodge, Outlaw Ridge, Rolling River Cabin, and The River's Edge. 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. Located just minutes between the towns of Blue Ridge and McCaysville, Riverview Lodge is perfectly and serenly located. The Ocoee Whitewater Center is less than 30 minutes away, and very convenient for those interested in whitewater rafting where the 1996 Summer Olympics were held. To take advantage of the 1,000 feet of Toccoa River frontage property, you can take a hike down the mountain on our private hiking/walking trail, or you will find a 200-foot staircase that will take you all the way down to the railroad tracks to watch the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway go by, or continue across the tracks to the river's edge. This beautiful property features a screened gazebo, 2 fire pits, 2 picnic tables enabling you to take a picnic and enjoy the rushing waters of the Toccoa River. The ability to fish, tube, swim, or kayak right from this property makes it so appealing and convenient for our guests. The Cherokee Indians built their rock Fish Trap in this locale, and is a great spot for trout fishing. In the cooler months, this luxury property can be fully utilized and enjoyed to the maximum by watching sunsets, building fires in the fire pit, drinking a great bottle of wine, roasting marshmallows, and enjoying wonderful companionship and comaraderie with those you love. Riverview Lodge is a luxuriously spacious lodge, comfortably sleeping up to 11 guests (the 11th on a futon in the loft). Each bedroom has it's own full spacious bath. A grand living area with a massive stone gas-log fireplace along with the impressive 2-story prow of glass and beams overlooking the North Georgia mountains and Toccoa River, blends comfortably into a very large and spacious gourmet kitchen and dining area. French doors lead off the dining area to a beautiful deck overlooking the mountains and Toccoa River - enjoy outdoor dining along with a gas grill. Off the Great Room you will find a private oasis in the King Master Suite. Beautiful antiques and bedding will make you feel right at home. The 6-person hot tub is outside the french doors from the King Suite - very convenient on those cold winter nights! Head upstairs to a spacious loft with plenty of leather sofas for watching your favorite movie or football game. Flanking the loft are two Queen Suites, each with their own full bath, and each with their own private deck with chaise lounges for viewing the panoramic view of the Toccoa River and mountains. To take in all this beauty and breathing the fresh mountain air as you sip your morning coffee will be just the perfect start to a perfect day. As you head downstairs to the terrace level, you will find a billiards table, official-size ping pong table, and gas stove fireplace. Flanking each side of the recreational area are two beautifully comfortable bedrooms, each with their own full bath. Off to one side, a luxurious Queen Suite with full spacious bath and french doors opening up to a breathtaking mountain/river views to be enjoyed on the porch swing. Discover a 5th bedroom on the other side of the entertainment area offering a luxurious King bed, fireplace, large luxurious bathroom with 6' jetted tub, separate shower, beautiful stone and tile work.

Additional Information:
Waterfalls in Fannin County Long Creek Falls - The most popular of the waterfalls in Fannin County is Long Creek Falls, which can be seen by hiking down a short side trail from the combined Appalachian/Benton MacKaye Trail. These falls total about 50 feet in two distinct drops. A leisurely 30 minute hike to the falls is uphill on the way in, downhill on the way out. Directions - take Aska Road south until it dead-ends into Newport Road, turn right and continue down Newport. At the end of Newport, turn left onto Doublehead Gap Road, which becomes a dirt road. Just past a church and cemetery the road narrows, then splits into three separate roads. Turn right onto FS58 and travel 5.4 miles to a widening in the road. This is Three Forks. Falls Branch Falls - The upper portion of Fall Branch Falls is a series of cascades that lead to a single major drop of some 30 feet, with the water plunging into a deep pool at the base of the falls. These falls, along the Benton MacKaye Trail west of Aska Road are a shorter, although a bit harder, walk than Long Creek Falls. Directions - take Aska Road south 8 miles and turn right on Stanley Creek Road. Go 3.1 miles to the parking lot on the right just past the bridge over Falls Branch. Sea Creek Falls - Located in the Cooper Creek Scenic Area, Sea Creek Falls are an easy walk of less than 0.1 miles. Unfortunately, the drive can be difficult. The first, or upper, falls is a series of steep cascades ending in a brief drop. The second falls is also a series of steep cascades. When the water flow is heavy either in late Winter or Spring or after a summer rain, these are a remarkable sight. Directions - from the Georgia Mountain Parkway just past Blue Ridge, take Highway 60 south (toward Morganton). At Cooper Creek Store, turn left on Cooper Creek Road (this road is also called Mulky Gap Road). After 3.3 miles, the road makes a dramatic turn back on itself and FS 264 comes off to the left. This road is rough and may not be passable in anything but a four-wheel-drive vehicle. Travel 0.3 miles to a campground, park, and walk 0.1 miles further up the creek. Jacks River Falls - This popular destination in the Cohutta Wilderness Area requires the longest walk of all of the falls in Fannin County. The easiest access is a 9.2 mile hike from Dally Gap along the Jacks River Trail.
