River Run Chalets - Nottely Riverfront, Starlink w/ Roku TV, Easy River Access
Fish and relax just feet from the Nottely River! One of a kind riverfront property located on the beautiful Nottely River. River Run Chalets consist of two 1,200 sq ft chalets, the Tranquil Chalet and the Trout Chalet. They have identical floor plans. The River Run Chalets are located on a 1 acre fenced-in lot on a 25-acre meadow with 9 acres of river front property to hike and explore. We have upgraded the internet to Starlink. No more unbelievably slow HughesNet or DISH internet! We also upgraded the Wi-Fi and added two brand new Roku TVs. The property is located at the end of a mile long dirt road - true end of the road privacy!
The River Run Chalets are great for families, multiple families, or small family reunions. Got a moody teenager with friends who want their privacy? Or do they want to play their music too loud? Or want to watch something different on TV? No problem! The Trout Chalet is the perfect kid’s getaway while the adults enjoy the peace and relaxation of the Tranquil Chalet. They are happy and you are happy! Perfect!
We chose this property because it is very unique and incredibly relaxing. The covered wrap-around metal roofed porches are just feet from the Nottely River. You can fish, hike, go antiquing, sit by the fire and listen to the river, BBQ on the outdoor grill, watch the cows graze across the river, or just sit on the porch and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Nottely River.
The chalets are located just 15 minutes from Murphy NC and Blairsville GA. Antique shops and flea markets are just minutes away.
Our family spent years camping. We always hoped to get one of the camp sites next to the creek at Vogel State Park so we could relax to the sounds of the rushing water. That rarely happened…
As my wife and I grew older, we got tired of the walk to the communal bathroom, lousy showers, lack of privacy, and the not-so-great sleep in the camper. As our kids grew older, the allure of sleeping in a tent with no WiFi faded so we set out in search of the next best thing that allows us to enjoy all of the outdoor benefits of camping, but with all the comforts of home. We found it at River Run!
The two chalets offer something for all members of the family to enjoy while on vacation: • Husband can trout fish while the wife goes antiquing. The best of both worlds! • Rent both chalets and give your teenagers the privacy they want and the privacy you desire. • Ideal for two families to vacation together and still give each other privacy. • Ideal for a family reunion. • Do the adults want to sleep in a real bed and take a shower in a real bathroom but the kids want to camp? We have tents and sleeping bags for the kids so they can sleep in the great outdoors next to the fire. Kind of like camping but much better for the adults! • Kayak or tube down the Nottely River. The property is 2.5 miles downstream from Nottely dam. You can get into the river at the base of the dam. We do not supply any flotation devices. • Rent a pontoon boat on nearby Lake Nottely.

Cabins were great, clean, had basic essentials that made it really convenient for a weekend trip. Peaceful setting and rewlly loved hearing the water at night.
Pictures do not do justice of this beautiful place that's Heaven on Earth. It was so quiet and peaceful. We had both chalets and each one was very clean and perfect. If I tried to find any fault it would be impossible. I canot wait to return. We were there for Thanksgiving weekend. We want to return when it's warmer to fish and play in the gorgeous river.
The property and both cabins were clean, perfectly located on the river and had absolutely everything we could need. We came for a family Thanksgiving getaway.
These chalets were perfect for a family getaway! Beautiful and peaceful location. We had 5 in one cabin, and 5 in the other with plenty of room. The chalets were clean & comfy. Kitchens were well stocked with pots, pans, and utensils for cooking meals, and there were games, a fire pit, and a nice gazebo directly over the water. We spent most of our time on the porches enjoying the sounds of the water just feet away. This stay felt private, but trips into either Murphy, NC or Blairsville, GA were convenient. Trout fishing was successful here, too! Just be sure to check the schedule for the dam to run its generators. Overall a great stay, and we plan on returning in the future!
Took our family here we are a variety of ages. There’s something for everyone! Absolutely wonderful stay! Chalets are exactly as described! River view and meadow are beautiful!! We will definitely stay here again!! Contact with property owner was easy to contact.
My family from a few different states and I got together to bury my papaw in town this December. It was a true blessing to be able to stay here together. Rather than multiple hotels, the 9 of us were able to have family meals, play games, and roast marshmallows in this secluded and beautiful area.It felt like being home again. Thank you for that!
We rented both cabins and they are not as the photos depict. They are MUCH nicer! The photos do not do them justice. We will be staying here again.

Like a little corner of heaven
Our family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The setting is so tranquil and serene - calming to the soul.
The 4 children especially enjoyed the air-hockey, games and tubing down the river.
If you stay during the summer months, the evening mist arising from the the Nottely River provides a cooling effect that is surprisingly refreshing.
Our family hopes to return again!
I'm a member of a group of artist friends who schedule plein air painting retreats annually in the fall. This property and walkable surroundings has all the scenery a plein air painter needs to create a variety of painting compositions convenient to two comfy and well-equipped chalets. We'll definitely consider returning next year!

Anniversary weekend
What a wonderful place! It is so quiet and so much more than pictures portray. The chalet was so clean and everything you might possibly need is there. Little cool for fishing but perfect for the firepit! Only sounds you hear are the abundance of wild turkey and the cows across the river every now and then. We had such a wonderful time and will definately be back! Thanks Kevin for a last minute anniversary getaway!

Thank you Tracey! We are so glad you had a wonderful time!
Enjoyed the river. Cabins were neat and clean. The set up of bathrooms was unusual. (all n bedrooms) The road was terrible. Bad on cars. Once you are there, it was real nice. Temperature was around 85 with a breeze. We were not bothered by mosquitoes, which was nice. Had a great time..
This property was great! The houses were exactly as advertised, clean and right on the river! We had a great time! We got to see river otters which was great as well! Everyone had a wonderful time! I will say that river access right at the house was not "easy" for everyone. They do release the dam early in the day so if you are not a river person you have to be out before that happens, which our littles were a little disappointed, but they had plenty to do with the amenties the house offers! The only thing i do want to point out is that the grill is a stone charcoal grill. So it doesnt have alot of cook space or ability to be closed. We made it work though, but just for future references. (Also grill tools are in an inside cabinet) The kitchen is stocked nicely with anything you could need!!! I absolutely would reccomend this place to anyone!!
We rented both cabins for our son's 16th birthday celebration. He and 2 of his friends stayed in one cabin, my husband, daughter and her boyfriend stayed in the other. Within minutes of arriving, my son was so in love with the property, he was wanting to buy it! lol. They thoroughly enjoyed the property. Unfortunately, didn't catch any fish there, but they went swimming and loved it all the same! The boys made a short trip to Cooper creek in GA to go trout fishing, so the whole trip was a success! Would definitely stay here again!
This is a great place if you want to be away from the rest of the world. Amazing views. Very secluded. Truly peaceful. Wi-Fi very spotty. Since we had 9 people, there was no where for all of us to eat together which was disappointing. The kitchen was very close quarters for trying to prep and make meals for 9. The dam released every day at 1:30 while we were there so we didn’t get to play in the river like we hoped. The drive is dirt/gravel. Unfortunately our first day there was quite the storm and we had to get out to move a tree off the drive. Overall, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the peace.
