Available for this weekend: January 24-27. Discounted rates! This is a great time to enjoy the cool winter temperatures. Take advantage of Valentines/President's Day weekend February 14-17 while still available. Enjoy our 2 indoor push button gas fireplaces, outdoor porch gas fireplace, outdoor wood firepit and hot tub! When you arrive at River Watch Lodge you’ll immediately be drawn to the huge back porch to see what locals call the very best view in Georgia of the scenic Toccoa River. You can watch it round the bend and move past our private dock at the bottom of our 2 acres of mountainside covered with oaks that turn a breathtaking golden color in the fall. Watch and later join the fishermen, kayakers and tubers float down the river which is known as the best fly-fishing body of water in the Southeast. Once you enter the cabin you will feel the warmth and comfort of a showcase spacious living area facing the river with a 30’ high vaulted ceiling and an amazing floor to ceiling fieldstone fireplace. Ready to kick back and relax. Sink down on our leather sofa in front of the 65” cable TV and light the gas log fireplace.

You may want to meander down to our spacious terrace level entertainment center with 12’ high ceiling to enjoy the regulation size pool table, 2 goal arcade basketball game with electronic scoring, regulation ping pong table, multifunction game table for poker, board games or bumper pool, the 58” TV viewed from our leather sofa with two end recliners and the custom-made bar with slanted tin roof and party lights.

Want to relax in the fresh mountain air? River Watch Lodge has three levels of porches all with amazing views of the Toccoa River. Try our swinging day bed or rocking chairs. Dine on the custom-made table that seats 10. Enjoy our large hot tub with seating for 6. Test your skills on our professional grade 4 hole synthetic putting green and enjoy the firepit with plenty of seating.
