Stunning Rushing River Views ~ North Georgia Mountains ~ Short Hop to Town!

Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains along the Chestatee River, H&J Riverhouse is your ultimate rejuvenation destination. Just twelve minutes from historic Downtown Dahlonega and within easy access to the area's many wineries, hiking trails, and waterfalls, H&J is the perfect base camp for couples retreats, celebrating major family milestones, or reconnecting with the great outdoors.

H&J offers four, full-sized bedrooms on three levels and three and one-half baths, comfortably accommodating up to eight adults. The well-equipped kitchen and over-sized farm table invites lazy dinners at home and the screened in back porch is the perfect spot for an afternoon nap or morning coffee.

The backyard offers stunning rushing river views, 575 feet of waterfront trails, lounge seating, a fire pit for cookouts and keeping warm, and horseshoe pits for the competitive spirit. Just a short hike across the footbridge, The Overlook provides quiet reading and napping options under a huge natural rock.

H&J Riverhouse is available for personal weekend and week-long rental. Contact owners directly for special weekday corporate retreat pricing.

A very rainy weekend definitely changed our plans for hiking and playing in and around the river. A well stocked and very comfortable home made up for this and we were able to find plenty of things to do in and around Dahlonega. Hope to go back and experience it in the sun!

This home was perfect for our girl’s weekend. It was very clean, decorated beautifully, and it had everything we needed. We grilled out one evening and had a charcuterie on the screened porch. It was a perfect place to eat and be able to listen to the river below us. We look forward to coming back again.

The river literally runs through the back yard. This is such a cool property. While the house looks a bit old form the outside, it is very nice on the inside. No bugs. No smell. Everythign was super clean. The linens were nice. The kitchen is nice. And the screened in deck wiht big table overlooking the river is the place to be.

Our family had an amazing week in this charming cabin! The porch on the river is truly paradise with the sound and clear view of the rapids. There were great views from all of the rooms and the bedrooms were large and well furnished. We had excellent response from our hosts every time we had a question. The trip to town was very easy once we learned to navigate the mountain roads. Magical!!

Great river getaway!

Great location close to town but out far enough you feel like you are truly getting away. It sits right on the river with a 'beach' area to wade in and splash around which was fun for our whole family. Lots of outdoor entertaining areas which was important to us. The owners texted us so they were easy to reach should we have needed anything. We would definitely stay there again!

A nice peaceful stay with family. My favorite spot was the screened porch, which offered a bug-free place to see and hear the river. One thing I appreciated was that it offered seating for as many people as it slept, which is not always the case in some places; it has a nice long table for dining and games, and plenty of chairs around the fire pit.

We had a great family reunion and the river and surrounding area was beautiful. Some in our group were much older so navigating the inside and outside steps and terrain was difficult for them. Overall, we had a great time and loved our stay, but this rental is more ideal for a younger crowd.
