Lovely cabin on a stunning whitewater river

Stunning cabin overlooking a beautiful whitewater river in North Georgia. Privacy, sounds of the river, perfect for fishing, hiking, swimming in the river, cookouts, sauna, or just enjoying a cup of coffee on one of the two decks overlooking the river. Head into town for a visit to the Dahlonega Gold Museum (the first major gold rush in America) or the two historic gold mines to pan for gold. Walk the square for small town shopping, great restaurants, and bars. Short drives to several wineries for local wines and food. And for serious hikers, the Appalachian Trail is only a 20-minute drive. Not to mention the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi, just a short drive away. Scores of waterfalls are just minutes from your doorstep. The house sits on a bluff above the river. The main floor includes a small, very functional kitchen and great room, a queen-size bedroom and bath, office, sleeping porch and deck. Upstairs ,a loft queen-size bedroom with half bath awaits you. The electric-heated Finnish-style sauna with dressing room and shower is just down the stairs from the sleeping porch. The sauna includes its own private deck, great for resting after the sauna or reading a book while soaking up the sound of the white-water river. Sleep surrounded by the sounds of nature and the river. You can enjoy a cookout overlooking the river and then serve your meal in the comfort of the sleeping porch, which overhangs the 80-foot bluff above the Etowah River. Bring a glass of wine and appetizers as you walk along your private trail to your private sitting spot at the river itself. Should you want a little action, Atlanta (just a bit over an hour away) offers professional sports, the Georgia Aquarium, the High Museum of Art, unlimited shopping and much more. This natural paradise is easily accessible from anywhere in the world via the Atlanta Airport, the world's largest airport.
