Tiny Home on 26 Private Lake Front Acres

Get away from it all at our Green River Log Cabin situated only a few feet off the Corp of Engineers property line on Richard B Russell Lake. Come enjoy our beautiful cabin in the woods with the added benefit of the lake being only a few hundred feet (3 minute walk) from the cabin via a marked walking trail. Your family will have acres to explore, hike, and play. Your dog will be in heaven if you bring him/her along!

The Cabin:
With only 400 square feet, it's best for a couple or single family, but sleeps up to 8. There are queen mattresses in the master bedroom, upstairs loft, and a queen pullout couch. There are also two built-in twin bunk beds. Upgraded kitchen with granite, stainless appliances, coffee maker, toaster, and microwave. Full bathroom with shower/tub. Large screened porch with a ceiling fan and room to relax, as well. We recently added a huge covered porch for added enjoyment outdoors.

The Property:
Coldwater Point Cabin is situated towards the back of a very private 26 acre lot surrounded on three sides by Lake Russell with over 4000 feet of lake frontage. There are several walking trails throughout the property along with a fire ring for campfires and s'mores. We provide various items; canoe, paddleboards, and kayaks for our guest to use during their stay. Make sure you bring a fishing pole for the crappie, bass, catfish, and bream in the coves. At night, take a stroll the field at the top of the hill for some great star gazing while listening to the coyotes, owls, and whippoorwills in the distance.
We are often asked about the walk from our cabin to the lake. Here's a video of the actual walk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luyB37bqm5s&feature=youtu.be

Nearby:
We are only about 8 minutes from Richard B Russell State Park. Arrowhead Point Golf course is a must for golfers and the park also has a large sand beach, hiking trails, boat launch, pontoon rentals (highly recommended for cruising the lake!) and Frisbee disc course. Be sure to check out Blue Cielo Farms winery just down the road! It's about a 20 minute drive to Elberton, GA where you'll find restaurants, grocery stores, and other things to do. Athens, GA is around 45 minutes and worth a visit if you need to fill your time on a rainy day.

Our cabin is remote! Cell phone service is non-existent to spotty, at best, and we do not provide a phone or internet. Plan to be "disconnected" during your stay and enjoy the peace and quiet! This is the perfect place to get away from it all!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Great place to disconnect and relax
If you are looking for a remote place to rest, relax, and disconnect from the main stream, this is the place for you. It has walking paths to the water and a place to put in your canoe. Very clean and great outdoor seating. Full size fridge, stove and dish washer.

Serene and Secluded
Beautiful "middle of nowhere" tiny house and right next to Lake Russell. We enjoyed the easy walking trail down to the lake and used the canoe. So peaceful and quiet. We loved the hammock swings. Only issue was that some of the bedding wasn't clean but there was plenty of extra pillows and blankets. We will be back.

Review for Tiny Home on 26 Private Lake Front Acres
We had a great time at the Green River Log Cabin! Despite the rain, the wonderful deck allowed us to enjoy the outdoors. The cabin was cozy and well-equipped, perfect for our family of three adults. The surroundings were beautiful, and the large property made us feel secure and pleasantly secluded. We used the kayaks and paddleboards but getting them to the water and back was a bit challenging, and they showed signs of heavy use probably because of this. The canoe was at the water, but we did not use that. Overall, it was a fantastic retreat, and we highly recommend it for a peaceful getaway. We would definitely book this again.

Perfect getaway
This little cabin is perfect! They have stocked it with everything you could want for a wonderful getaway from the world without a need to leave the property. We explored the trails & fruit trees on the grounds. Lots of trips down to the lake to fish, kayak, & canoe. The stars are spectacular. We heard coyotes howling at night as we sat out by the fire. The deck is huge and so cozy. Ryan was so helpful & responsive leading up to check-in. Enjoyed our stay very much!

Peaceful
I couldn’t have asked for a better location, property and cabin! I am quite addicted to my phone, so I was a bit concerned there, but I mentally prepped and I’m more addicted to nature and beauty so an easy trade off😉 The cabin itself is slightly smaller than it photographs, but the quality and wasn’t nice is precisely as photographs and I’m sure in warmer months, all the outdoors lace makes everything feel huge. I loved our stay, the grounds were private, well marked paths leading to the lake, adorable outdoor patio/deck, much better quality kitchenware than most rentals AND a washer and dryer! Great. We had no issues, never had to be in contact with the owners (but I’m sure they would have been lovely and responsive) Inwas there to rockhound and the location was ideal as a base

Absolute Gem!!!
We were staying in Tennessee for our daughters wedding and decided to break up our LONG trip back to Florida so I started going through VRBO. I found this perfect peace of heaven for not only my hubby and I but our pups were inHEAVEN!!!!! I write this in the car home they are exhausted!!! Will def come back when warmer so we (hubby and I) can enjoy the lake. This trip the cold temps didn’t stop the pups from swimming. It was COLD highs in 50’s lows in the 20’s!! We love camping and this house was like Glamping. Soooo clean. The host was extremely helpful. I highly recommend if you want to get away from it all, take a trip here.

Celebrating 10 years
I chose this cabin for my family for a couple of reasons. 1. It had a huge chunk of its own land to be able to wander and explore. 2. It was secluded. There weren't any other cabins within sight. No other people we had to worry about stumbling upon amongst the trails, it was a total get away. And that's exactly what we got. The cabin was a tad smaller than I had thought but nothing drastic or a deal breaker. The set up was family friendly and tons of all the convenient things needed on a stay in the middle of nowhere. They are not kidding about the lack of cell service but that's also a big draw. We're not big screen people as it is so we didn't even bring or watch any of the dvds. The cabin was cozy. We all loved everything about it and honestly didn't want to leave our little acreage for anything for the whole weekend. We had a wonderful fire at night and told ghost stories with the kids. We never took the boats out but loved having it as an option. We did luck out with one warm day so the kids got to splash around at a private beach while the husband and I just watched and enjoyed the fun they were having. We were in total bliss. Life long memories were made while celebrating a huge mile stone for our family. We have already talked of coming back and other trails we didn't get the chance to explore. We did end up leaving to get lunch and watch a UGA game as we're all avid fans. Please take the time to check out southern hart brewing company. Only 20 minutes away, amazing food, great happy service, and a surprisingly fun family friendly atmosphere. We ended up staying there for the whole game and we all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly the entire time. These host are great, kind, answered all my questions and were available when needed. Will most certainly consider staying here again.

Off the Grid Getaway
This was our second time staying at this property and we enjoyed our time off the grid. The property has trails that lead to a beautiful peaceful lake where we spent most of our time. If you need a place to get away from the internet and cell phones and just want to return to the peace and quiet of nature, this location is ideal.

Great place to unplug
We held our annual guys trip with a group of long time friends. This place was perfect. Glorified camping. Had all the conveniences of a house with kitchen, AC, bedrooms and bathroom, while also offering all of the fun adventure of camping. The hike down to the lake is short and the Kayaks and Paddle Boards are tons of fun. Literally felt like we had the entire lake to our selves. Swimming, Fishing, Hiking, Camp Fires, Corn Hole... excellent place to unplug and enjoy nature. Will absolutely be coming back with my wife and dog.
