RIVER, RIVER, RIVER! – Blue Heron Cottage on the Chestatee River
Welcome to Blue Heron Cottage, a rare and enchanting river retreat where nature, charm, and tranquility meet. Nestled on 4.24 private acres along the Chestatee River, this property is named for the majestic blue heron that soars gracefully up and down the river – a sight you’ll never forget. The 2-bedroom cottage features cozy living spaces with a wood-burning stove, a spacious dining room that seats eight, and a full bath on the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find a full bath and comfortable sleeping quarters that capture the peaceful sounds of the Chestatee River.
Step onto the screened porch, where the river is perfectly framed before you, shimmering through the trees.

Outside, you’ll discover four incredible decks situated directly on the Chestatee River – all grandfathered in, a privilege no longer available today. Whether you’re casting a line for trout, kayaking downriver, or jumping into the deep, clear waters for a refreshing swim, this is riverside living at its best. A 24′ x 30′ metal building offers ample space for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. With no HOA, you have the freedom to expand – there’s room for additional homes if you envision a family compound, guest cottage, or income-producing vacation rental.

The Chestatee River, where gold was first discovered in Dahlonega, adds a touch of history and magic to this exceptional property. Blue Heron Cottage is truly unique, private, and irreplaceable – a rare opportunity to own true Chestatee River frontage in the heart of North Georgia. Only 10 minutes to the quaint town of Dahlonega, where the magic of a small town is your new lifestyle dream. (“Dahlonega won the title of#1 small town in Georgia!
