Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at River Retreat. Easy walk to town. The place was clean and tidy. The hot tub was so clean it looked new. Kitchen had everything we needed. Going to sleep by the river was really nice. Only downside was the TV, it didn’t work at times and when it did it struggled to keep connected. It didn’t bother us because we don’t watch much tv anyway. Also remember this is a mountain home 2 flights of steps. If you have issues with stairs you might not like River retreat but we loved it!! Also Georgia Mountain Rentals was great to work with, friendly professional staff. We will be renting from them again for sure.
