We purchased this property from our neighbors across the river. Ms. Opal always called this side "the island" after the run of the river changed years ago, splitting their property in half.

Cabin · Sleeps 4 · 1 bedroom · 1 bed · 1 toilet
Need to get away from it all for a few days? Perfect couples getaway. Beautiful 1 bedroom, 1 bath cottage with a sleeping loft nestled on 30 acres bordered by a beautiful freshwater creek and offering private UTV/ATV trail leading to private sandbar access. The majority of wood used in construction of this cabin was hand milled on site. Convenient location in proximity to Vidalia, Lyons, Metter and Statesboro. Bring your own UTV or golf cart (or rent one) to cruise the majestic cypress, white oak and palmetto Ohoopee River bottom land.  Hike on the banks of the Ohoopee River and Beaver Creek.  Birdwatch on the nature and wildlife trail as we have abundant owl, hawk, turkey and deer.  Forage the palmettos and the riverbank for chanterelle mushrooms to accompany your dinner.  Roast marshmallows on the sandbar.   Our river is known for white sand, black water and famous redbreast fishing so bring your bait and tackle to catch cold freshwater redbreast, bream, white perch and bass.  Or just sit in the sand with your toes in water that's refreshingly cool year round. After your outdoor adventures, return to your cabin to rinse the sand off in your outdoor shower and swing or rock on the front porch.  Audiophiles will enjoy the record player and classic record collection.  Sit by a campfire in your yard and stargaze. Home is fully stocked and includes high speed wifi service. ***A starting supply of paper goods, laundry detergent and dish soap are available. We greatly appreciate our guests helping us replenish these items as they are used.*** ***No parties or events are allowed without owners prior consent and approval.*** ***We have two smart TVs and wifi service whereby you may stream from the provider of your choice. We don't have cable access.*** OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: This property is located approximately 2 miles down a dirt road. At times, a truck or 4x4 vehicle is needed. Please let us know in advance of your stay if you'd like to rent a golf cart. Cart rental is currently $20/day. You are welcome to build a fire on the sandbar but please don't cut or damage live trees on the property as it has been selectively thinned. Feel free to use any downed trees and or limbs for sandbar fires. Please note that the bedroom is currently lacking a door as we are waiting on a special ordered door. Never fear though, the bathroom does have a locking door.
