  Description
Not your typical log cabin, this beautiful and unique property has all the feeling of a cozy cottage, but plenty of space for your group to relax and enjoy life on the river. Nestled on the banks of the Coosawattee River, you get the feeling of stepping back in time as you enter. This home is modeled after a historic Appalachian farmhouse with shiplap walls, whitewashed ceilings and wide plank pine floors. With a gourmet kitchen and ample seating, the kitchen and great room is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Open up the French doors to the large screened porch and let the sounds of the river wash over you while you watch the birds and deer visit. Stroll down to the back yard, where you’ll find a hot tub, cedar barrel sauna and firepit area with Adirondack chairs. Enjoy the private beach located right on the river, where you can launch your kayak, go tubing down the Coosawattee or just play in the sand. When the day comes to an end, enjoy a movie on the terrace level with a gas fireplace and game room. Every bedroom is beautifully decorated with tranquil decor that will quickly dissolve your stress away. The cabin is located in a private gated community just minutes from downtown Ellijay and 15 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. Rivershire Cottage is now pet friendly, with a fenced front yard, orthopedic dog bed and dog bowls for the main and terrace levels. If you are looking for a cozy cottage with lots of space for memories to be made, Rivershire Cottage is your top pick.

								Blue Sky Cabin Rentals was incredibly responsive. Answers within 10 minutes always!

								The Rivershire Cottage was perfect for our group of 7 adults and 1 teen. Plenty of space to spread out and have our own space, the hot tub was a welcome perk and our family scrabble tournament will long be in remembered. The space feels like a home versus a cold rental. Opening the windows to hear the river was a bonus. It does back up to a somewhat highly traveled road, but the sound of the river washes out any of that noise. This place was enjoyed by my whole family!

								We have been very pleased with the dog-friendly cabins! This was my 4th time renting a cabin from Blue Sky; trying a different one each time. Love being on the water! Customer service is always very helpful!
The WiFi was out upon our arrival on May 25th (Thursday) early evening. After trying the usual, unplug the router and wait a minute, we called customer service, and a very helpful and lovely young woman (Kristy we think??) answered our call and arranged for a tech to come out first thing in the morning. My daughter had a work Zoom call at 11 am so the rep made sure the tech came out right away to get it all figured out and working out before her call. 
James, the tech was great and very friendly as well, and figured out the issue!

								This is a beautiful, spacious house, very well appointed! The owners were very responsive, and ready for us despite our last-minute booking when another reservation had to cancel! There are neighbors close by, but it was very quiet during our stayIm not sure anyone was there then. Indoors: tons of beautiful living space, very comfortable beds, great showers with shampoo/soap thoughtfully provided, excellently appointed kitchen, a screened porch to die for overlooking the river...again, beautiful space! Outdoors: hot tub and sauna great for chilly March nights, fenced area for the dogs, fire pit on the sand... very lovely spot right on the river. The house was close to neighbors, but I dont think anyone was staying in the houses near us while we were thereit was very quiet. We saw lots of deer, and the birdsong is wonderful.
