About this property

River Views & Access, Privacy, & Resort Amenities

--THE BEST PARTS--
- Private, riverside getaway just a few minutes to downtown Ellijay and close to all Blue Ridge and North Georgia have to offer.
- Your cabin overlooks the most beautiful stretch of the Coosawattee River. Walk down your stairs for private river access.
- Open windows to see and hear the rushing river from any part of the house
- Fully updated home with all of the modern comforts you want
- 5-star hosts that love providing a wonderful experience
- Gated resort & amenities (included for stays after 6/26/23)

--OUTSIDE--
The locals have called the Fawn River cabin "the best kept secret in Ellijay!" There is good reason: the privacy and location are divine, yet only 10 minutes to downtown Ellijay's award-winning shops and eateries. But the winning view is the secret here - this is one of the widest sections of the Coosawattee (over 200 feet wide!), and the river is so crystal clear you can spot trout from the deck.

Unplug and unwind on the deck with a glass of wine or cup of coffee, enjoy the view and ever-present sound of rushing water. A few things you’ll love about the outdoor living space:
- Smokeless fire pit (Solo Stove)
- Wildlife viewing. Spot deer, blue heron, hawks, fish, or (on rare occasions) a bear!
- Cornhole
- Comfortable outdoor seating and dining areas, including gas grill
- Safety gate

PRIVATE RIVER ACCESS
Open the gate and walk down the steps for riverside fun. Lounge and fish from the soft grassy area or tube from your own backyard!

PARKING
Your cabin is off a short and easy-to-drive gravel road with a large level driveway that can accommodate 6 cars.


--INSIDE--
This cozy cabin will be your home away from home no matter what you’re looking for. One of the first things you notice when walking in is that you can remain immersed in nature within the walls of the home. You can watch the water from every room or even open windows and doors to bring the sound of rushing water into the space. This is a very private location where green trees and blue water are the main thing you see from each window.

Unplug or remain connected with your cabin’s many updated features:

Modern Conveniences
- Upgraded and fully equipped kitchen
- Full-size washer and dryer
- 3 cozy bedrooms (all with views of the river), 2 full bathrooms, comfortable for 6 adults and 2 children
- Pack n’ Play

Tech and Entertainment

- Smart-home tech - Keyless entry, voice controlled smart thermostat, HD Roku Smart TVs in the living room and each bedroom
- Wii gaming system with a selection of popular games
- 2 portable Bluetooth speakers


--RESORT--
You’ll be staying at Coosawattee River Resort, a gated 5,500+ acre mountain and river community. The resort features several amenities including: three pools (including heated indoor pool & kiddie pool), game room, weight & exercise room, 18-hole mini golf, multiple playgrounds and riverside parks, fenced dog park, stocked fishing pond, tennis court, pickleball, basketball hoops, and rentable event space. To gain access to the amenities, guests must pick up an amenities card from the resort (limit: 8 guests).

You will enjoy the peace of mind of being in a gated community while being only a convenient 1-mile drive to the Ellington gate.


--LOCATION--
Your cabin is nestled in a private riverside location while still only 10 minutes to downtown Ellijay - a small town with big adventures. Ellijay is the Apple Capital and Mountain Bike Capital of Georgia, and within a prominent section of wine country that features eight wineries. Downtown Ellijay provides everything you desire in a quaint mountain town including delicious restaurants and taverns with live music, fantastic shopping, and memorable festivals year-round.

Quiet place with great river views
We enjoyed our stay over Easter weekend. The views of the river were lovely, but best of all from each room we could open our windows at night and fall asleep to the sound of the river. The resort amenities had a lot to offer to entertain our 11 year olds - minigolf, swimming, pickleball, arcade! My only complaint was that the resort was further away than we were expecting and required a 20 min drive due to winding nature of the roads so we ended up using it a little less than we might otherwise have.

Fantastic Stay with Family!
We had a wonderful low-key stay during our winter break. The home was very clean, welcoming and accommodated nicely to our family of five. Mac was great in communication. I would definitely recommend staying here and would stay again.

Family Getaway
Short trip to Ellijay for the weekend with the family. The property was right on the river with plenty of space to run the dog around. Lots of great deck area overlooking the water. Just what we had hoped for!

About the host

Hosted by Mac

Host profile image
Hello and welcome to Ellijay!

My name is Mac, and my family and I love helping our guests have a wonderful trip. As Georgia natives, Fawn River is our weekend getaway. The cabin has a special place in our hearts, and we hope it will provide you with as many fulfilling memories as it has for us.

I'll be available for you as often as you like while you stay with us.

Why they chose this property

We just love this area! Both the location of the property and the region are very special. The river is stunning and serene - whenever locals come by they always say things like "I think this is the prettiest part of the whole river" or "Wow! I never knew this was here, it is beautiful" or "I never knew the river got so wide." I love sitting on the porch and letting the sounds of the water take all the stress of life away. We almost always see neat wildlife each time we visit the cabin.

The Ellijay area and North Georgia mountains offer so much to do, see, eat, and drink. Our family especially loves all of the good restaurants (and we recommend our favorites in our welcome book provided upon arrival), hiking, water sports, and wineries. There are activities for those seeking rest and relaxation, outdoorsy folks, and the thrill seekers.

What makes this property unique

- Private, riverside getaway just a few minutes to downtown Ellijay and close to all Blue Ridge and North Georgia have to offer.
- Your cabin overlooks the most beautiful stretch of the Coosawattee River. Walk down your stairs for private river access.
- Open windows to see and hear the rushing river from any part of the house
