Cozy Cabin on the Toccoa River - Fireplace, Screened Porch, Fishing, & S’mores

Welcome to River Rapids Bookery!

This cabin is a beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom mountain retreat with all the amenities you need to enjoy a comfortable stay in the North Georgia wilderness!

As you step inside, the living room invites you to relax with its cozy seating and a well-stocked library, perfect for book lovers seeking a peaceful escape. In the colder months, there's no better place to curl up with a book than beside the warm glow of the indoor wood-burning stove, while the front porch offers a tranquil reading nook in the warmer summer months.

With a fully equipped kitchen boasting brand-new appliances, meal preparation becomes a breeze, whether you're whipping up a quick breakfast or preparing a family feast. Outside, the screened porch provides a serene setting to enjoy your morning coffee, cooled by a gentle breeze from the ceiling fan, while gazing out over the Toccoa River. For those who love to grill, the deck is outfitted with a gas grill, allowing you to cook outdoors while taking in the riverside scenery. In the evening, gather with friends and family around the outdoor fire pit to roast marshmallows, share stories, or simply marvel at the stars above.

Upstairs, kids will delight in their very own gaming table, offering hours of fun and entertainment. Each of the three bedrooms are equipped with their own television, ensuring everyone can relax in comfort and enjoy some downtime after a day of outdoor activities.

Beyond the comforts of the home itself, River Rapids Bookery offers unparalleled access to the great outdoors, nestled near the stunning Chattahoochee National Forest. Outdoor enthusiasts will find themselves surrounded by a wealth of opportunities for adventure. Hike through the rolling forests and majestic mountains along the Appalachian Trail, with nearby trailheads offering hikes to iconic spots like Preacher’s Rock and Blood Mountain, both providing sweeping views of the mountain valleys below. If you prefer a gentler walk, the Cooper Creek Trail leads you through peaceful woodland streams and waterfalls.

For those who love to fish, the nearby Toccoa River is known for its exceptional trout waters, ideal for fly fishing. Anglers can also try their luck at Cooper Creek or Rock Creek for a quiet day of fishing in the serene mountain streams. The river’s calm waters also make it perfect for kayaking or canoeing, offering a leisurely way to take in the beauty of the landscape.

The nearby Suches Loop and Georgia Highway 60 provide scenic drives through the heart of the forest, especially breathtaking during the vibrant fall season.
For wildlife lovers, the Chattahoochee National Forest offers excellent opportunities to spot local wildlife, including deer, black bears, and wild turkeys. Birdwatchers will enjoy catching glimpses of hawks, owls, and various songbirds as they explore the trails.

Nature isn't the only attraction in Suches, though. Every year, the nearby Woody Gap School hosts the beloved Indian Summer Festival, a local tradition held in early October. This two-day festival celebrates the rich culture and heritage of the Suches community with live music, arts and crafts vendors, local food, and family-friendly activities. The Indian Summer Festival provides a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture while supporting the students of Woody Gap School, the smallest public school in Georgia.

As the day winds down, return to the comfort of River Rapids Bookery, where you can unwind in front of the fire pit, watch a movie in your room, or enjoy the calming sounds of the river flowing by. Whether you're looking for adventure in the great outdoors, a quiet place to read and relax, or a chance to experience the charm of a local festival, River Rapids Bookery offers it all.

You will have the entire listing to yourself.
