River Vista RV Resort is nestled in a valley surrounded by all the natural wonders of perfect backpacking country. Go find a ruby or sapphire at one of the many gem mines or take a hike around Tallulah Gorge State Park. River Vista and Rabun County are home to waterfalls galore, vineyards (12 Spies), distilleries (Moonrise and RM Rose), museums (Foxfire and Scottish Tartan), and “pick-your-own” farms and orchards (Osage, Jaemor, Hillside, and Chattooga Belle). In the winter, take a sleigh ride at the Dillard House Stables, go snow tubing at Scaly Mountain Snow Tubing, and enjoy some skiing or snowboarding at Maggie Valley. Then, take a day to explore the Biltmore Estate in historic Asheville, NC in all its holiday splendor. 

Stay for a week to take advantage of the weekly 15% discount so you have time to enjoy everything we have to offer here in the North Georgia Mountains.
