Riverstone: Amenity-Packed, Riverfront Retreat, 8-Person Hot Tub/Sport Court.

Georgia Riverstone Lodge is your dream Georgia cabin (along with our sister Lodge "Rocky River" (VRBO #701904)) waiting for a memorable vacation in the beautiful North Georgia Mountains near the quaint town of Ellijay. Our upscale cabin is located in the beautiful gated river community of Coosawattee River Resort situated directly on the river where we provide you canoes, kayaks, and tubes for your river adventure!

The cabin is outfitted with a large outdoor seven person hot tub, a game room with pool, foosball, and ping pong, and canoes and tubes for use. There are three spacious bedrooms that easily sleep 20 people, each with their own bathroom. Come and relax, you’ll never have to leave with all the amenities provided! Find out for yourself what our many loyal repeat guests have discovered about our North Georgia Mountain first-class lodge style cabin, maintained with loving care, that provide the ultimate relaxing environment for escaping the hustle and bustle of city life.

Come spend a weekend or longer in our cabin and feel the cares of everyday life slip away. Riverstone Lodge is located on the Coosawattee River and has a tree lined view. You can hear the sound of the rushing water echoing up from the river. Ellijay, Ga. is an easy, scenic 60-minute drive north of Atlanta by freeway and four-lane parkway.

Our cabin is available for rental year-round. Each season has its own unique beauty: dogwoods, mountain laurel, and rhododendron in the spring; the deep blue river with white accents, dark greens of the trees in the summer; a vast sea of hardwoods that are on fire with color in the fall; and, if you're lucky, a white blanket of snow in the winter. Click on the Availability Calendars to see which dates are open. Click on the Contact Us button to book the cabin or to get more information.

The Coosawattee River Resort community is packed with wildlife. Deer, turkey, ducks, and countless other forms of wildlife are destined to be observed on a long walk or drive through the mountain complex. Shopping, dining, golf, and antiquing are all minutes away tucked away in the charming downtown Ellijay.

Beautiful River Front Location
The cabin was very clean & there was plenty of space for our group of 10 people ranging from ages 5-75. The kids enjoyed the basketball goal, badminton net, hot tub and fire pit for s'mores . Good access to the get in the river & appreciated having the tubes, kayaks, & canoes available for our use. Was surprised at how long it took to access the cabin from the main road/gate. We booked a cabin at the river to avoid mountainous roads, so it was disappointing that the drive in the neighborhood had a lot of hills and sharp curves, and that the driveway to the cabin very steep. But the sound of the water rushing in the river was very pleasant once you arrived.

Our souls are at peace after our stay
Painting a mental picture of this property is impossible, and the pictures on the listing truly do not do this location justice! Woke up to deer in the yard every morning while sipping my coffee on the swing. The activities are endless, but kayaking was a favorite for our group! Everything we needed was on the property from tubes, to kayaks, to canoes! You have never felt more at peace than when you are kayaking next to deer and the sounds of the river. We were able to easily cook for our group of 13 and enjoy movie nights together! When it rained the kids enjoyed ping pong, foosball, and pool, also in the home! We WILL most definitely be returning next year!

Great Place for a Church Retreat
We stayed with a group of our students from church for a summer retreat. There was plenty of space and the property was clean. The river was fantastic as well! Good places to swim right behind the cabin. We also brought tubes and did the 3.5 hour tube trip back to the cabin. The driveway is VERY steep. We had a problem scraping the back of our church van. In the end it was fine. We parked at the bottom of the hill. We would stay again!

We had a fabulous time in Georgia staying on the Coosewatte. So much to do at the property and in the area. We had three families in the house with a mix of older teens and kids. Everyone had enough space to sleep and have fun! We loved tubing, fishing, and volleyball the most. Great stay!

Pictures Don't Do Home Justice
We were 9 guys on a guys trip and wow what a fantastic cabin nestled in the bottom of a beautiful mountain resting on the Coosawattee River. The home was clean and perfect, plenty of room to spread out with a lot of beds. The pictures truly don't do the home justice as It looks so much better in person. Just a short trip to town for good dining, shopping and many activities. We did paint ball in Blue Ridge at Blue Ridge Paint Ball which was very fun. Kitchen was fully stocked with all the necessary cookware, clean bed sheets, nice clean towels, etc. Cell service is not that great here however the WIFI worked well with all 9 of our phones plus the TVs and other WIFI capable technology on property. We hope to be back one day!

Great weekend getaway
We rented both lodges for our group. Everything was perfect! We came here last year and enjoyed it so much that we rented the sister cabins again. Sarah and Ian are great hosts, easy to communicate with, and very helpful with any additional questions and requests. We highly recommend Riverstone and Rocky River Lodge.

Wonderful Cabin
We enjoyed the Riverside Lodge. It was spacious and had a great view of the river. I would recommend following the instructions the owners give to access the lodge. It is a much easier mountain ride. The driveway is steep and scary at first, but definitely doable. We had SUVs and sedans and all could go in and out of the driveway with no problem. We enjoyed the kayaks, pool, ping pong, puzzles, and basketball court. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space. We were able to watch the football and baseball games. A helpful tip….To make the shower work on the main floor and basement, you pull down from the knob where the water comes out. We had three families with three children ages 14, 15, and 2 and everyone enjoyed the cabin. We built outdoor and indoor fires. It was a wonderful trip. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

This was the most amazing place. We brought our high school summer baseball team and they still have not stopped talking about this place and how much fun they had. So much to do and entertain. Being in the river was so incredible. We just sat out by the river and enjoyed every minute of our stay. It’s so big we never felt on top of each other either. Thank you very much!!!

Sticker shock
house was clean, it is smaller than what pictures show, grill would not work, so we tried to call the numbers listed, and no one answered either of the numbers to call, had it been a real problem not sure what we would have done. my main dislike was the signs posted all over the house (inside and out) made it feel like a youth detention center, not a relaxing mountain get away. The most appalling signs were the ones on every toilet lid in the house. I mean, you have to be an adult to rent the property, please have a little respect for your guest. I rented the house for our trip, and i was embarrassed by the stickers. also take Tp with you, when they say limited, them mean what is left when others leave, we barley had enough for the first day and only had 10 people. drive from gate to house was long, so no quick trips to town. one nest chair on top deck needs replaced, and some other stuff was very worn out, also wound be nice to have some bowls with lids in the kitchen and some knives that are sharp. but the river and the hot tub and game room were very nice. all in all we had a nice time at the house.
