Resort Sales

Dillard is the ideal vacation spot because there are many attractions that are only a short drive away from the resort. We are close to national forests with great hiking trails and waterfalls, scenic farms to ride horseback through, trout fishing, golfing, gem mining, snow tubing and these are just a sample of attractions in the area. Highlands, NC, famous for its shopping, is only a 15 mile drive away. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Cherokee Historic Park, and Maggie Valley Ski Resort are only about an hour drive from River Vista, and amusements in Gatlinburg, TN are only an hour and a half away.

The Community Association fee is about $115 per month, and is billed quarterly. Included in the Community Association’s fee are water, sewer, Wi-Fi, cable television for your lot and common areas; electric for common amenities; maintenance of common facilities, and lawn mowing of owners’ lots and common areas.

Lot owners pay property taxes for their individual lots, electricity, telephone, and hardwired internet access (if needed). Lot owners are responsible for maintaining their own lot landscaping and lot improvements, with the exception of lawn cutting. Lot owners must maintain insurance on their RV and liability insurance on their lot.

Most lots are between 1650 sq. ft. (30’x 55′) to 3000 sq. ft. (40′ x 75′) depending on location. Several lots are larger. Each lot includes a gravel RV parking pad, 30 and 50 amp electric service, water, sewer, cable TV and Wi-Fi. Each lot is sold as is. Lot enhancements such as upgraded landscaping, expanded paved areas, and storage facilities can be constructed at a later date by the purchaser and designed and built in accordance with rules and regulations set forth in the architectural guidelines and the Community Association architectural review process.

River Vista RV Resort has an onsite management staff, which attends to the day to day operational needs of the resort. The resort operator staff reports to the declarant (Oakdale Wylie Corporation), which works closely with the River Vista Mountain Village Community Association, Inc. and the Falls View Mountain Village Community Association, Inc. (the two associations which comprise the property of the resort) in a harmonious, cohesive manner. The River Vista Mountain Village Community Association will be turned over to the lot owners when the conditions for turnover are met in the Declaration of Protective Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements for River Vista. Everyone’s intent is to enjoy quality time at this vacation resort community and keep it looking beautiful for years to come.

Acquiring an RV lot is a big step and there are many factors that make this move more attractive for many RVers of all ages.

Reservations are never needed. It is your RV lot and is guaranteed to be available for you to use indefinitely, regardless of season. The Resort Operator intends to continue operating a reservation system and you will reserve your lot ahead of time so that there won’t be any conflicts, should you choose to participate in the park operator’s voluntary rental assistance program.

In all likelihood, your neighbors at River Vista will have similar interests as you, making the resort a community of like-minded people and helping to forge lasting friendships. This has already been a great success in the Falls View section of the park, and part of the appeal of the overall resort.

Rising gas prices and the possibility of fuel shortages are causing many long time RV’ers to look for alternative ways to use their RV. Purchasing an RV lot is one of the most economical ways of owning a Georgia vacation property, and provides a great way to use your RV for years to come. If you want spend several weekends in the mountains and return home during the week to work or spend time with the grandchildren you can leave your RV here and just drive your car back and forth.

You may personalize your lot in many ways ‘ improving parking surface areas, a patio, an outdoor kitchen, landscaping, creating a garden, or perhaps adding a small 8’x6’ storage facility are some of the upgrades owners may wish to consider. (Lot improvements are subject to architectural guidelines.)

Lot ownership is an ownership of real property and you should consider the same factors as you would in owning other real estate assets.

RV lots are property and can be passed on to children, grandchildren, or others.

Lot ownership fixes the cost of your RV lot for the long term. While property taxes, insurance, and association fees may rise over time (and may be controllable by the Property Association), the principal and interest payments associated with some mortgages remain constant. Daily, weekly, monthly, and annual RV lot rental rates have been increasing in recent years, typically at about 10% per year.

Lot ownership will allow you to place your lot in a voluntary rental program administered by the resort operator when you are not using your lot, or you may rent the lot yourself or through a third party to registered and approved guests, or not at all. It is your lot.

The developer is offering financing of up to 10 years, fixed at 5% for the first 5 years with 20% down. The loan could be for 3, 5, or 10 years. If the loan is over 5 years, it will adjust after the 5th year to the prime rate (as set forth in the Wall Street Journal) plus 1% for the remaining term. There are several other lenders available that have expressed an interest in lending on these lots; but we make no representation as to their capacity in this area.

They are complete NOW. You do not have to buy now and hope that the developer finishes the project. This development is finished. Our staff at the resort will be glad to make available to you copies of the Bylaws of River Vista Mountain Village Community Association, Inc., the Declaration of Protective Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements for River Vista Mountain Village, and the Declaration of Reciprocal Easement and Operating Agreement, which are on file with the Rabun County Public Records.
