About this cottage rental
Come find rest and relaxation at River Haven. Our beautiful new cottage is located directly on the banks of the Chauga River and is secluded within 10 acres.
The cottage is light and airy with large windows and high ceilings throughout for viewing the river and surrounding area. The cozy, well appointed living space provides a complete kitchen, master bedroom, living area with sleeping sofa, and bath. In addition to the beautiful indoor space, two porches and a hammock area are available to enjoy the rushing river sounds. A riverside firepit and sitting area will also provide an excellent opportunity for relaxation.
Visitors of River Haven, will enjoy fishing, tubing, kayaking, and swimming in front of the cabin or simply curling up with a book listening to the river. Also you may experience the thrill of Chattooga White Water rafting just 15 minutes from the cottage.
If you enjoy hiking, nearby waterfalls provide for wonderful hiking opportunities. Boating and skiing activities can also be enjoyed on nearby Keowee, Jocassee, and Hartwell lakes. Other areas of interest nearby are Chattooga Belle Farm Distillery & Vineyards, Clemson University Tiger football, Brooks Center for the Performing Arts, Duke Power World of Energy, antiquing, White Water Falls, Chattooga white water rafting, visit to Clayton, Ga and shopping just to name a few.
NOTE: Cottage is on a long gravel road that is steep. 4 -wheel drive is not necessary, but helpful. I personally do not drive a 4 wheel drive car and no issues. Long drive but ends in paradise.

Very peaceful and private. Cottage was cozy, creek sounds were soothing. Great getaway
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Very clean and cute! kitchen was well stocked. Washer and dryer was not available and there were no toiletries for showering. Grounds were well kept. We could not get to the water easily and could not swim. :( Host was gracious and texted me back quickly with answers to my questions. I would recommend for peaceful retreat. River access is not good for physically challenged. The river was beautiful and the sounds were calming.check in was a breeze.

Location was picturesque! The river is footsteps from the property and the water was very nice. It’s about 20-30 minutes from several scenic spots in the area. The only issue I had was the property had no soap for bathing and no iron. For the price they charge, it should have included these basic amenities.
