Guests highlight how clean and comfortable the cabin is, with several returning for repeat stays
Wake up to the hush of North Georgia’s most celebrated trout river and end the day roasting marshmallows under a sky glittering with stars. Blue Ridge Riverfront Cabin — affectionately nicknamed The Big Chair River House — places you right on the clear Toccoa River in the heart of the Aska Adventure Area. Whether you’re a family of paddlers, anglers, and hikers or a group of friends craving lazy mornings on a porch swing, our cabin wraps you in nature without sacrificing comfort.
The space
The Space
Step inside and feel the everyday stress melt away. The river greets you through oversized windows the moment you cross the threshold, and the interior has been completely renovated to balance mountain-cabin charm with modern convenience. With approximately 1,300 square feet of indoor living space and another 1,300 square feet spread across two river-facing decks, everyone in your party of up to eight guests has plenty of room to spread out, play games, or steal quiet moments with a cup of coffee. The main level is devoted to gathering: sink-in sectional sofa, stone fireplace with wood-burning insert and blower, smart TV for streaming your favorite apps, and a dining nook that invites lingering conversations after dinner. Large sliding doors pull the outdoors in, so even on rainy days you’ll hear the soothing rush of the Toccoa just beyond the rail.
Outdoor Living
Our twin decks are the star of the show. The upper deck, shaded by mature hardwoods, is outfitted with deep-seat loungers, a generous dining table, and a swing bed that tempts even the most indoorsy guest to try a night under the stars. The lower deck sits closer to the water, perfect for morning yoga, sunset cocktails, or spying the resident kingfishers and white-tailed deer that pass through at dawn. A third platform is positioned right on the riverbank, giving anglers a private casting perch and transforming tube launches into the easiest part of your day. After the sun dips, circle around the large stone fire pit, toast s’mores, and watch May–June fireflies put on an unforgettable light show.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms
All three bedrooms are upstairs, so early risers can sip coffee downstairs without waking sleepers.
1. King Master Suite: plush king mattress, river vistas, direct access to a side balcony, and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower.
2. Queen Bedroom: cozy and quiet with a window that frames leafy views; steps from the shared full bathroom on this level.
3. Kids & Teens Bunk Room: a custom queen-over-queen bunk plus a single-over-trundle gives youngsters their own hangout and easy access to the covered front porch for morning cartoons in the fresh air.
Bathrooms: Two full baths and one half-bath.
Full baths: one upstairs with a shower and one on the main level with a tub/shower combination—are stocked with starter toiletries and hair-dryers. The half-bath is on the second level and has a sink and toilet.
Kitchen & Dining
The fully equipped kitchen lets you channel your inner chef with stainless-steel appliances, dishwasher, microwave, drip coffee maker, Keurig, wine glasses, sharp knives, pots, pans, mixing bowls, and place settings for eight. Prep breakfast while kids recount the previous night’s campfire stories at the breakfast nook, then carry plates outside to the 10-seat teak Pottery Barn picnic table on the deck. Nothing tastes quite as good as pancakes with a river soundtrack.
Neighborhood
You’re tucked away enough to hear nothing but water and wildlife, yet only 15 minutes (9 miles) from the boutiques, farm-to-table restaurants, and craft breweries of downtown Blue Ridge. The paved Aska Road brings you here, so no nail-biting mountain drives are required. Pull into the gravel driveway, unload the groceries, and forget the car—most days you’ll be content to fish, float, or read by the river.

Good to Know

• Firewood is not provided. Local convenience stores and roadside vendors sell inexpensive bundles.
• Trash must be bagged and secured in the bear-proof bin to keep curious critters away.
• Cell service can be spotty in the mountains; Wi-Fi calling is the most reliable method once you arrive.
• Check-in is contactless. You’ll receive a unique door code 48 hours before arrival.
• Maximum occupancy is strictly enforced at eight guests and no pets. Violation will result in immediate cancellation without refund per county regulations.

Where you’ll be
Blue Ridge, Georgia, United States
Neighborhood highlights
Only 15 minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge! Blue Ridge is Georgia's favorite mountain town, only 90 miles north of Atlanta via I-575, but a million miles away from it all. With 106,000 acres located in the Chattahoochee National Forest, Blue Ridge, GA is definitely the cure for whatever ails you.
Renew your spirit on a day hiking to local waterfalls or horseback riding on forested trails in the Chattahoochee National Forest. Bring the family and discover the thrill of an Ocoee River whitewater rafting adventure, ride on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, enjoy a current movie at the Swan Drive-In Theater, or treetop Zipline canopy adventure. Rent a pontoon boat, kayak or SUP on beautiful Lake Blue Ridge. Pick locally grown fruit at Mercier Orchards, a 75 year old family orchard. Play a round of golf at Old Toccoa Farm, Fannin County’s first and only golf course that fronts 4,000+ feet of the Toccoa River and offers immaculate zoysia tees and fairways along with challenging bent grass greens. Catch a trout on the tailwaters of the Toccoa River or a clear mountain stream; Blue Ridge is the Trout Fishing Capital of Georgia. You will not be lacking in things to do in the area. Or ... just kick back, relax, and enjoy the cabin.
Visit the Fannin County Chamber of Commerce website for much more visitor information. And since we are in what is known as the Tri-State Adventure Area due to our closeness to TN and NC, you may want to visit the Chamber of Commerce sites of the following counties: Gilmer (Ellijay area), Union (Blairsville area), Towns (Young Harris & Hiawassee area), Polk County, TN (Copperhill area), and Cherokee County, NC (Murphy area).
There's a lot to do here and the surrounding areas. Too much for a short visit. Have fun!
