Enjoyed our mountain holiday
Our extended family had a very nice time at this home. Very well appointed with all needs met. Christmas tree added ambiance. We made use of fireplaces in and out and hot tub. The kitchen had most everything we could need as we cooked every day.

Amazing Long Weekend Getaway
We had a group of friends stay for a long weekend and had an amazing experience. The house is in a beautiful area and we were able to use and enjoy the large porch, outdoor fireplace and hot tub. Jason and Deana made the check in and out process very easy and were available quickly with any questions we had. Would greatly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing vacation away!

River bear lodge is very bucolic with nature surrounding the cabin. The layout of the cabin was exactly as listed on website. Deanna and Jason were great in communicating on our arrival and departure. Will definitely visit again for 2025

Excellent stay at wonderful cabin
Deana was an excellent host. A strong storm came through the area our first night there and she texted information about road and water conditions and safety precautions. The cabin was beautiful, spotlessly clean and very-well stocked. We especially liked the nice labels for many items. Thank you, Deana!

Every detail is beautiful!
My family of 6 (all are 18+) stayed in this beautiful home for 5 nights and we all loved it! It was spacious and completely furnished with everything we needed, and more.Every detail in this home was thought through. We loved being on the river and had a blast hanging out on the deck, grilling out, making a fire in the fire pit, roasting s’mores and just relaxing by the river. We counted deer one day as we drove to the property and counted 41! We visited Elijay, Blue Ridge and Amicalola Falls and all enjoyed our trips. Highly recommend!

Awesome Family Gathering
What a fun, peaceful gathering at this beautiful cabin! The location on the river was so nice, and we appreciated the comfortable accommodations, fully stocked kitchen, and the many personal touches throughout the property. The hosts were very responsive and quick to address our questions. We loved the ease of hopping in the river with our tubes. The downstairs game room, pool table and hot tub gave our teens plenty to do. Lots of spaces to gather and to spread out. Overall, it was nearly perfect. Thanks for everything!

Nice place
We have 6 kids ranging in ages from 11-1 which means the outdoor activities are very important. The distance to the pools was a significant drive and the steps to the river were quite a few which the description does not reflect. Additionally we had 4 family units and we were expecting, according to the description 7 bedrooms and 5 baths and that was not the case. There were 4 bedrooms plus the loft and 3.5 baths. The amenities were fine but the distance from the cabin made it hard in getting the kids ready and being able to go back and forth to our cabin. It was just too far.

Clean, Beautiful & Owners who are Attentive
Beautiful, quiet location. We had a few questions during our stay and the owners were so quick to respond. We also appreciated all the "extras" that not many owners provide anymore... for example: plenty of toilet paper, several dishwashing pods, a few things of coffee/hot cocoa, large towels for hot tub, etc... Our teens loved the basement space... felt like they had there own guest house down there. We had a great stay!

A week of fun with family
To start with it was so far to get to the houseand too steep to go down to the creek. My husband and I r 81 and 78. Our children and grandchildren and great grandchildren enjoyed the creek and fishing. The house was very nice. We all enjoyed the fireplace on the porch

Perfect house and location for an extended family weekend!
Our extended family consisting of six adults and six teenagers spent a long weekend at this amazing cabin. The cabin was all of the superlatives - exceptionally clean, extremely comfortable, and beautifully decorated. There is plenty of space to lounge in multiple rooms and the kitchen was well-stocked. The location is beautiful with direct access to the creek, which we enjoyed fishing and tubing in! We also enjoyed the rec center for pickle ball, weights, and swimming in the pool. We will definitely be back!
