About this property

The Water's Edge - Game room, creek access, firepit, and tons of outdoor space!

Retreat to this lovely creekside property near Blue Ridge, Georgia! Great for families, The Water's Edge is the perfect cabin for guests looking to get away from it all. Located on Fightingtown Creek, you'll find the peaceful creek sounds make you forget all your troubles. Relax in the hammock or with friends and family around the firepit. Do a little catch-and-release fishing on the creek or hop in for a swim. You can even bring your own tubes to float out on the water.

The multiple porches and decks are great for gathering or just enjoying the fresh mountain air, with their own seating areas including a porch swing. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms. The primary bedroom features a king-size bed while the second bedroom has a queen-size bed. The third bedroom has a king-size bed, making the cabin excellent for multiple couples or families with kids. Each bedroom has a TV with cable, and you'll have Wi-Fi, hundreds of DVDs to choose
from, and central AC to stay comfortable year-round.

Downstairs, there is a game room complete with a pool table and foosball table, plus a selection of board games when you're in the mood for some friendly competition. The spacious yard gives you plenty of room for games or any other activities you may have planned.

When you're ready for a night on the town, Downtown Blue Ridge, GA, and McCaysville/Copper Hill, GA are just a short drive away. There, you'll find restaurants, bars, shopping, arts and crafts, live music, and more. Take the family on a horseback ride, enjoy the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, or go whitewater rafting.

Nice Cabin

Our stay at the cabin was truly enjoyable. My wife, my 10-year-old son, and I had a wonderful New Year's Eve, just as we had planned. However, I do have a suggestion: the descent to the cabin could be better maintained. It’s quite steep, and the vehicle tends to slip near the top, which could pose a risk for inexperienced drivers. I had to reverse down the slope to gain enough momentum to make it up the hill. For reference, I was driving a Highlander, not a 4x4.Another minor concern is the parking space under the tent. Maneuvering the vehicle requires several back-and-forth adjustments due to the limited space available. Lastly, the heating was preset to 68F, which felt too cold for someone like me coming from Miami. I hope you don’t mind, but I adjusted it to 72F for comfort.Overall, it’s a charming cabin, and we had a great time!

Amazing cabin and location !

Weekend trip with my Son and his girlfriend and my Daughter and their two young ones, Location was great , we could hear the rushing water from the cabin if you had the doors open, Very scenic, very nice fire pit with sort of a lighted Gazebo, Stream was everything we hoped for , Cabin was very nice, set up well . We'll very likely book this cabin again in the future !

October trip

We read all the reviews before booking therefore there no surprises. We really enjoyed the cabin and sitting by the firepit at night enjoying the no kid vacation. Beds were comfortable, the water got hot fast, theres also a neighborhood dog that came up when we arrived she was super sweet. As i said overall definitely a place id stay again. Make sure when booking to read the reviews and the emails so you know what to expect.

location was beautiful but in and out from the cabin was challenging because of drive way

we were very excited at first but it all started from drive way. so we have decided to park our car on the road. it was yearly family reunion and we were all very excited to be there but when we entered in to cabin and try to unpack and organize foods and stuff , but refrigerator was not working and freezer was leaking water into the refrigerator. I did call management office and told them and someone was supposed to come out and check things out but no one showed up until we left cabin. Also wash machine was not working so our brother had to fix before we used it. We started out our vacation cleaning kitchen area first. And we were gonna make this vacation meaningful as possible and try to have fun but something was biting all of us and it was flea. Nature itself was beautiful and enjoyed deer family every day but we have decided to cut our vacation short and checked out one day early.. All of us were very disappointed but at least we were all together and made this trip happy and meaningful. Every year our families get together somewhere in mountain but never had these kinds of experience.

Nice location but some concerns

Super close to the state line in McCaysville. Super cute town with shops and dining. The icemaker is amazing. The creek was very relaxing. There a few complains though. 1. We were there all of 48 hrs and while we were out shopping, received a text that said maintenence was coming over some time to change out a few lightbulbs. When we got back it was obvious they were there while we were out. All our belongings there unattended. This is unacceptable and so inappropriate and a violation to our privacy!! 2. Would have been nice to be informed of how bad the road and driveway is. If you dont have a 4wd or all wd, you wont make it. 3. Basement shower has mold on the floor. 4. Door in 1/2 bath gets caught on floor and is loud. 5. Paper products are super thin, bring your own. 6. Checkout on website says 10am but white binder says 11am. They would not budge.

10 Things I Wish I Knew...

Overall we had a great stay but there are a few quirks about the cabin I wish I knew in advance. 1. There are NO BLINDS in the bedroom with the king bed. There were other people staying at the rentals below us and it was just uncomfortable and awkward. 2. There is a giant floodlight that points right in the king bedroom, right on the bed. After calling the property manager and receiving NO HELP we moved the bed out of the way of the floodlight. 3. All the blankets are thin & scratchy. 4. There is NO dishwasher. 5. The pots/pans are very limited. 6. There is an air fryer (seems odd, but ok). 7. Be careful going down steps to yard. Step 4 from the bottom is rotting and loose. 8. There is a generator that seems to turn on for no reason. And it's loud. 9. Never ever ever go down a dead-end road. You will never get out. 10. The driveway is VERY steep and with recent erosion not all vehicles will be able to get out. Overall we had a great time and we would go back. Bring your tubes and go down the river. Have someone pick you up at Quinns Nursery.

Peaceful place to relax

Enjoyed the peaceful setting and sound of the river. Encountered some wildlife, including a black bear that was startled by our presence and ran away. This cabin is definitely away from city life, but close enough to stores and restaurants if needed. Very nice place to relax.

Great Place but Needs Improvement

Pros: We enjoyed fishing on the creek, playing in the game room, and sitting in the rocking chairs. There is plenty of towels and kitchen supplies to use. Cons: Many of the stairs, especially the ones going to the front of the house, are rotting and could possibly fall in at anytime. We brought this to the attention of the cabin rental team and was hung up on. Be ready to climb many stairs during your stay at this cabin. I would not recommend this with anyone who has difficulty climbing stairs. Do not go bare foot in the house. They will be completely black. There is clearly no mopping. We had issues with the fridge, but the repairman was able to fix that. The back door also had issues as stated in previous reviews. The driveway is extremely hard to get in and out of without a 4x4.

On the river

Would rather have had a diswaher or hot tub instead of bidet on every toilet. No dresser or storage area to unpack clothes. No ball for Foosball table. Poorly stocked kitchen, lack of pots with largest maybe 6 cups. Went and bought one, left it there. Enjoyed the scenery.

Very relaxing and surreal

This is a very nice cabin and so relaxing.. yard full of deer at dusk. The sound of the river was so relaxing while sitting on the top balcony. Needs a tv in the living room where the comfortable furniture is. Cabin was clean but for the amount of the cleaning fee, there was dust on the tables and dried food on the knobs of the stove. Definitely would rent it again
