Our Waterfall Cottage is a 2BR/2BA vacation home within sight and sound of the iconic 50 ft tall Cane Creek Falls. Large screened porch, wood-burning fireplace, WiFi and more on Cane Creek. It is located in the very unique and special location inside the security gated several hundred acre Glisson Camp and Retreat Center. There is a small enclave of privately owned cottages, which are accessible at all times. Ours is the second one downstream at the base of the falls. A large screened porch with dining table and comfortable seating area and other viewing areas will give you the sense of really being with nature as the cottage is about fifty feet from Cane Creek. Lots on either side are vacant and Falls Mountain is behind the cottage. It has two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen bed and two full baths, fireplace (operational October through March) & we supply Duraflame 3 hour logs (1 per night), free WiFi, Smart TV via Amazon Fire TV stick with YouTube TV, Netflix & Prime Video, land-line phone with unlimited USA long distance (cell service is spotty), lower covered deck with porch swing. Breakfast is not provided, but we do provide coffee and all the basic needs for cooking. There are no dishwasher or laundry facilities. We provide camp chairs for you to take to sit by the falls. We have a BBQ and provide charcoal. Cane Creek is a designated trout stream and is now open year-round, but you must have a valid Georgia license to fish. We use the Waterfall Cottage as our own get-away when not rented and thoroughly enjoy spending time there. There are hiking trails all around the camp and maps are located on signs at the welcome center and downstream of the cottage. The falls area is rich in history as a Native American gathering place with netting holes and petroglyphs etched in the rocks by the falls. It was also the site of a very early large water wheel electric generating plant. Much of the time you will find the cottage to be a very quiet and peaceful get-away. The camp does have retreats many weekends, but the main buildings and their cabins are not located near our cottage with the exception of the Program Center, which was designed after the gold mining structures of Dahlonega’s history.It is about 5 minutes from the Dahlonega Square.Some things for you to consider before renting this very special cottage: 1. Strictly limited to four people maximum including children, 2. absolutely no pets, 3. absolutely no smoking anywhere either inside the cottage or outside as the camp is tobacco free, 4. the parking area is about 90 yards from the cottage – you park and then walk toward the falls and then across the foot bridge in front of the falls and then up a path 5. two night minimum with some holidays requiring 3 niights. 6. The second bedroom has private access to the second bathroom and screened porch and there is a door between that area and the master bedroom, but access from the second bedroom to the kitchen/living room is through the master bedroom, unless you go through the screened porch, to the lower deck and up the outside steps. 7. There are about 10 private cottages along the creek inside the 400 acre Methodist owned Camp Glisson Retreat Center. In 2026 from May 24th to July 24th there are youth summer camp sessions from Sunday afternoon until Friday noon. The camp owns the falls, creek and hiking trails. We ask that guests give young campers their space while they are enjoying the outdoors during organized activities Sunday afternoon through Friday morning during summer camp. During summer camp guests can use the immediate waterfall area anytime the young campers are not there, which happens several times a day and during meal times.Guests can see the falls from the cottage and especially from the Adirondack chair area. Camp trails are closed during summer camp, but there are many hiking trails nearby and many lead to other waterfalls. Friday afternoon through Sunday morning during summer camp there are no children in camp, only the camp counselors. So, guests are welcome to use the immediate falls area. 8. We have 2 exterior security cameras aimed at the cottage door and the lower deck. There are no interior cameras. We turn the cameras on when the cottage is vacant. We sometimes turn on the cottage door camera until guests check in so we know they have arrived safely. We then turn them off.About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.For sm kids may allow up to 3.About customRules:Camp Glisson rules: no firearms, alcohol outside of the cottage lot or smoking..About checkIn:Check in after 3:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.None inside or out.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 21.About events:No events allowed.

Escape with family and friends to this serene and centrally located retreat in Dahlonega, GA—renowned as the "City of Gold"! Just a short drive from Atlanta and conveniently situated right off the main highway (400), our getaway offers both tranquility and easy access to essential amenities such as grocery stores, gas stations, and pharmacies. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, there’s something for everyone!**The Adventure Inn** is perched on a charming small mountain along a private, unpaved road, nestled within 1 acre of lush, tree-surrounded land. Enjoy full access to the entire property and take the opportunity to hike and explore the scenic mountain road, which boasts stunning valley views. While there are a few neighbors on the mountain who cherish their privacy, we kindly ask that you limit your exploration to our cabin property and the main mountain road.Beyond the immediate property, Dahlonega awaits with a wealth of activities and sights to discover. From historic tours and gold panning to wine tasting and outdoor adventures, this vibrant area promises memorable experiences for all ages. We highly encourage you to venture out and immerse yourself in all that Dahlonega has to offer!---A few things to note:- The road to the cabin on the mountain is not completely paved and the terrain is uneven. While most vehicles can navigate it without any issues, we advise against attempting the drive with vehicles that have a very low clearance. While a 4WD is not necessary, a low-clearance vehicle may struggle to traverse the road.- Please be aware that GPS directions may sometimes lead you to the wrong driveway. Look for a white mailbox with the number 350 displayed on the side. Our driveway is just beyond that mailbox.- For your convenience, we provide a basic starter pack of supplies for your stay, including 1 roll of paper towels in the kitchen, 2 trash bags, 1 roll of toilet paper for each bathroom, 2 dishwasher pods, and 2 laundry pods. We recommend that you bring additional supplies to ensure you have enough for your entire group and the duration of your stay. Should you need further supplies, there are nearby stores such as Publix, Home Depot, and Walmart, all within a 15-minute drive from the cabin.- Please note that we do not supply firewood, so we suggest bringing your own if you plan to use the fire pit.- While ride-sharing options like Ubers and Lyfts are limited in Dahlonega, there are three excellent local taxi services available: Mama’s Taxi, Pop’s Taxi, and Savoir Faire Taxi Service & Wine Tours. We recommend scheduling your rides in advance, especially during the busy wedding seasons of Spring, Summer, and Fall, as these services may have limited availability for on-the-spot pickups.
