About this cottage rental
Firelight River Cottage is a 2 bedroom/1bunkroom cottage located at the convergence of the Chestatee River and Town Creek in historic Dahlonega, Georgia. River rapids, expansive, level lawn, colorful flower gardens, and campfire rings are at your doorstep.
The beautiful, pastoral setting is the perfect place to get away from it all (no neighbors within sight). It is nestled in the heart of North Georgia’s wine country on the Dahlonega plateau (5 wineries are within a 2-5 mile radius of the cottage).
The property is a trout fisherman’s dream. It offers many easy, level entry points into the river which is stocked with rainbow, brook, & brown trout. The natural beach is an inviting spot for sunning and swimming. Three patios provide lovely areas for outdoor cooking and dining.
Golfers may enjoy playing a round at Achasta, a Jack Nicholas signature course.
Trail rides are available through nearby stables.
Shops, museums, restaurants and groceries are just a 10 minute drive away in charming, historic Dahlonega.
The fully stocked kitchen, HD TV and huge wood-burning fireplace make indoor living fun.
We have had some comments from "flat landers" about our gravel driveway. We just had it regraded and re-graveled. There are some speed bumps that direct water into the drainage ditch. Drive slowly and you'll be fine.

We had the best time staying at this cute cabin in the woods! The location is perfect and very easy to get to several towns, wineries and the distillery. The cabin is very clean and so comfortable. The kitchen is so well stocked I was able to cook 2 family dinners with all the fixing and was not missing a cooking diah or serving dish. One of the best stocked kitchens I have been in! The grounds are absolutely amazing! The river/creek is so relaxing and the fire pit down by it was perfect to enjoy our "cold" evenings around. The wood burning fireplace got used and was a fantastic thing for our trip. We had zero issues with the gravel driveway, just take it slow and you will be fine. The host was absolutely amazing, checked in on us and even delivered firewood for a small fair fee. Pet friendly was huge bonus and our furry friend had a great time running in the yard and taking walks on the grounds with us. She also enjoyed all the fire options. We will absolutely be back! This is one of the best VBROs I have stayed at. Thanks again for sharing your amazing cabin with us! We cannot wait to stay again. 5 stars, 2 thumbs up and some happy friends that made some amazing memories.

Very convient location and nice river front property We enjoyed the fire pits as we brought an extra tv to watch the football games by a warm fire. Did a couple cold plunges in the Chestatee river which was refreshing.

Quick communication responses, very friendly, the house had everything you could possibly need, and the location was perfect to see a variety of towns.

The location and landscaping were great. The beautiful sounds of nature. We discovered Ol’ Clyde’s restaurant in Cleveland. A must try is the Avocado Fries and The Brisket.
