Property details

🎣 Fishing, Swimming & S'mores by Starlight 🌠 Retreat to this lovely creekside property around 15 miles from Blue Ridge, Georgia! Great for families and friends, The Water's Edge is a great cabin for guests looking to get away from it all. Located on Fightingtown Creek, you'll find that the peaceful creek sounds make you forget all your troubles.

You can even bring your own tubes to float on the water! 🚣 Scenic Cookouts, Fireside Sips & Games ⚽ Multiple decks are great for gathering with a fresh cup of coffee or just enjoying the fresh mountain air, with sitting areas, including a porch swing, rocking chairs, and tables.

From the moment we walked into Water’s Edge, the immediate sense of relaxation and peace was just what we were looking for. Great location..we came for the Blue Ridge Christmas lights and wound up loving the charming town of McCayesville! We will be back in the spring for fishing and to relax to the sounds of the river !! Jenny and the entire crew were wonderful hosts. This was our first Air B&B experience …and it certainly won’t be our last!

We loved being right on the river and having access to fishing. The beds were comfortable, and the fireplace was cozy. Peaceful surroundings with plenty of space for our family getaway.

The cabin is nice has 3 separate rooms, the game room is at the bottom and has different games. We could not figure out how to set the darts. Would recommend to drive at least an awd because the cabin has a gravel path as well as the driveway going down hill so be carful when going up and down the road. Close drive to town as well as a short drive to blue ridge.
