Summary: Great area. The River house was perfect for the 4 of us. Very convenient to downtown, the stores and Ellijay area. The River House has several sitting areas outside which was very nice except it rained the whole time, so utilized the porch furniture a lot. Definitely would rent this place again. Our favorite wineries are The Roo & Buckley’s.
