The Daily Rhythms

Wildlife You Will See

Herons fish your river every morning. River otters are common in the upper sections. White-tailed deer cross at the same shallow spots every evening. Black bears pass through riverside corridors routinely.

The Flood Plain Reality

Most Chestatee River properties sit in the 100-year flood plain. Flood insurance is required for federally-backed loans on properties in Zone A or AE. An elevation certificate is worth the cost before making an offer.
