This waterfront property sits on a small bluff above the Toccoa River, with direct river access,! There are incredible views of the river! A straight on view overlooks one of the five federally protected fish traps on the Toccoa River, with a partial view of the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway as it crosses the property in the warmer months. Off to the left there is a beautiful down river view as it gracefully curves through the mountains. The cascading outdoor deck has been designed to accentuate the views and creates an incredible outdoor space for relaxing, reading a book or just taking a nice nap as you relax in nature. A fire pit area has been incorporated into the deck design, overlooking the river.

The interior of the cabin was refurbished and professionally decorated in 2020 and features a Cabin Chic design - including a little glam - with custom design features not found in other river cabins.
MAIN LEVEL:
• Kitchen features a fridge, stove, microwave, and a stainless steel dishwasher, with a granite counter-top, and farmhouse design features.

This room is light and bright, yet perfect to curl up in for a good night's sleep!

Light window treatments, a glam convertible light/ ceiling fan with Austrian crystals create a nice breeze. Crack the windows to hear the rushing river water as you relax in this one of a kind space. The master bath is attached, with a little bit of bling and tin added to enhance the romance of this room. As an added bonus, we've recently added an oversized white curtain that can be closed to add extra privacy to this beautiful space. It adds to the Cabin Chic décor, while being a feature not found in other cabins with loft bedrooms.

Wonderful nature escape! The Toccoa river is beautiful and we enjoyed the charming Blue Ridge passing twice a day as we waved to all the passengers. The property was as-described, could use a little dusting here or there but overall clean and comfortable. The steps leading to the river access point are steep and there are many of them, so take that into consideration. We would definitely book again.

Beautiful property with lots of amenities! Our family enjoyed the Toccoa river and being located right at the fish trap we were set for success. The game room was fun and so was the Blue Ridge Railway which came by every day we were there. Lots of nice decks and outside furniture areas to enjoy the outdoors. Also lots of steps, so especially the way back up may be hard for those with mobility issues. Wonderful place for fishing, nature and fun!

Amazing family getaway w/great fishing

Cabin was secluded yet 15 minutes to nearby towns for restaurants and shopping. It is extremely clean and clear on house rules. We spent alit of time fishing trout and floating on the river. We had no complaints nor issues at this beautiful home that comfortably housed 5 adults. Lots of stairs inside and out but we liked the exercise. Thank you for opening your home to us to enjoy a change of scenery.

Wonderful Christmas Trip

Our family had a great experience spending time in the Blue Ridge area and staying at the cabin. The cabin was very nice and the decks, river, fire pit, and hot tub added to the fun and relaxation. It was fun to see the Blue Ridge train pass right by the cabin all decorated for Christmas too.

A Much Needed Break!

Beautiful property and a much needed break for our busy family. Cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. The shuffleboard was a hit with our kids. River was up and muddy so the fishing was poor but it was still beautiful down by the water’s edge. My goal was to drink coffee and read and that’s exactly what I did!

Cozy cabin nestled way back in the woods. The outdoor deck is the highlight of this location with an amazing view of the Toccoa River. There were deer everywhere on the drive up to the cabin, and even saw plenty of them on the property. It is a bit of a hike to get down to the river and back up, so just be prepared to handle the long staircase down and back. It was fun to see the train go by twice a day as well. Ellen, the host was great about communication and making sure we had a great stay.Side note, fly fishing here in July is tough due to the warm temps but did manage to land a few fish. Gotta hit it early in the morning or right at dusk, but pay attention to the dam release schedule so you don't get caught out there in rushing water.

Fun family trip

Loved the cabin! It has such a great view of the river, with really lovely outdoor spaces for relaxing. The drive in to the cabin was easy, which is always a plus in mountain areas. Everything was super clean and we appreciated the little touches like marshmallow roasting sticks and a few fishing supplies. We saw deer, a racoon, an armadillo, and a mama turkey with a few babies in the few days we were at the cabin.

This is a beautiful house with a wonderful view. The sound of the river is very relaxing. It was very fun to see the passing train go by. The house is very well equipped and has all you need for a nice visit. Location is great as it is far enough from town for quiet but close to drive for groceries or shopping. Would love to stay there again. We were able to find the house using Google Maps.

Amazing Mountain River Vacation

Our family had a phenomenal trip to Fishtrap Overlook. Ellen and Dave were literally the most astute and ready to help hosts you will ever have on trip using VRBO. I cannot say enough about their hospitality and the property they share. While it is fun to debate what properties were best among the ones you have stayed at. This absolutely is in the conversation for one of the best for our family. You will not be disappointed!
