About the host
Hosted by Sarah Johnson
We’re an adventurous family of five who love hiking, kayaking, and exploring the outdoors. As a local real estate agent, I know the area well and am always happy to share recommendations. We live nearby if you need anything during your stay and look forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood for its peaceful setting and exclusive access to a private waterfall, available only to residents and guests. It’s the best of both worlds, tucked away in nature, yet just minutes from Dahlonega’s award-winning wineries. Cavender Creek is only 2 miles away, and Kaya, Three Sisters, Frogtown, and Doghobble are all within an easy 10-minute drive.
What makes this property unique
What makes our cabin unique is the sense of peace and privacy you’ll find here. Nestled right on the river, you’ll have exclusive access to kayaks, a paddleboard, and a riverside fire pit, plus a 6-person hot tub with a view. The big screened porch and deck are perfect for sipping coffee or enjoying a meal while listening to the river. Walk to a stunning waterfall, relax with fresh local coffee, or gather with family and friends in the spacious yard with plenty of outdoor dining space. Pet-friendly and adventure-ready, it’s the perfect mix of nature and comfort.
