Dancing Waters is a rare creekfront escape set at the water’s edge on Fightingtown Creek in Cashes Valley. The cabin sits beside an 80-foot-wide stretch of rushing water, where large boulders, native hemlocks, whitewater sounds, and a private island create one of the most memorable waterfront settings in the Blue Ridge area.
This is the kind of cabin where the setting becomes the experience. Soak in the hot tub perched just above the creek, relax on the screened porch, listen to the water move around the boulders, or settle in by the Solo Stove after a day exploring the mountains. With its lodge-style interior, king bed, fast fiber internet, wood stove, and easy access, Dancing Waters is ideal for couples, solo travelers, remote workers, and guests looking for a peaceful dog-friendly retreat.

The Setting
Dancing Waters is located in Cashes Valley, one of Blue Ridge’s hidden gems. The cabin sits along Fightingtown Creek, a trophy trout stream known for clear water, natural beauty, and the sound of rushing current moving over rocks and boulders.
Large hemlocks and giant creek boulders give the setting a Pacific Northwest feel — right here in the North Georgia mountains. The private island and natural whitewater make this property feel especially unique, peaceful, and tucked away.
