  We had a great time at the cottage. I took the pedal boat around the lake and caught several bass. Your neighbors are very friendly and accommodating. You have a very relaxing atmosphere here, and the symphony of frogs and crickets after sunset was great. We will be sure to return if you will have us.

  We've had a wonderful, relaxing week here. It didn't take long for our urban stress & concerns to disappear. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, trips around the lake in the pedal boat, fishing from the dock, scenic drives, & eating at Paesano's. All of the amenities of the cottage were greatly appreciated. We'd love to take the cottage & lake home with us! We truly enjoyed our stay!

  What a beautiful place. My father hooked his first fish of the trip in less then 5 minutes. We enjoyed setting out on the deck listening to the frogs in the evenings. We were blessed to be here during a full moon, the lake was great. The morning coffee goes great with the scenery & sounds of the birds. What a way to enjoy God's land.We were truly blessed to be here.

  A wonderful week of riding our bikes. You have lovely quiet roads,lovely people who are also courteous drivers and beautiful scenery. The weather was also perfect. We loved your cottage, the best way to relax after a hard days ride was out on the deck watching the lake. We really appreciated the pretty & comfortable furnishings. It's easy to see you take a lot of care to provide a welcoming enviornment. Thank you.

  Thanks again for the opportunity to stay at "Carefree Cottage".It's only our second stay, but it feels like home. We leave so relaxed. There's nothing like quiet time looking at Lake Becky, or staring into the fireplace. We had fun hiking the local waterfalls, golf in Cashiers, and the "Spring Jubilee" in Pendelton...and we look forward to our next return visit!

  Your cottage is so cute! Thank you for leaving us all the neccessities. Mountain Rest served us some awesome riding. We trained everyday and still found time to relax in your beautiful cottage. We will be back!

  Thank you so much for sharing this quiet, peaceful home of yours! The pedal boat was a real "hit" with the children! The adults enjoyed the quiet mornings watching the children and eating country ham bisquits. In the afternoons we went rafting. Thanks again, for the chance to share your little gem!

  Thank you for sharing your home with us! We were two couples with five kids and we all had a great time! All the boys were crazy about fishing off the dock and we made daily trips to enjoy the beautiful Oconee State Park. At least one of us has already cried because we have to leave today! This is a lovely cottage!

  Very enjoyable - like home away from home! Thank you for allowing us to stay the weekend! It was wonderful having all the necessities of home without having to bring everything with us! The Pedal Boat and Deck was a wonderful place to spend the evening. I love the decorations and got good ideas for my home. We look forward to returning here many times in the future!

  Thank you so much for opening your quiet cozy "Carefree Cottage" to our family. We explored the state park, fished from the dock at the cottage, enjoyed the nearby waterfalls, and completely lost ourselves in the quietness that surrounds the lake! The Shaarda Family

  The symphony of frogs, the serene lake view, our 7-year old's mess of fish, pedal boating around the lake, eating our meals on the deck, waterfalls and beautiful nature picnic lunches! This is a beautiful area! Thank you so much for sharing this relaxing and carefree cottage with us! We will be back!! Maureen, Adam, Chandler & Matthew

  Dear David & Claudia, What a treasure you have here! We loved our time, the quiet of the lake interupted only by the "honking" of the Canadian geese and the evening frog symphony! The Pedal Boat was wonderful - it really made the lake experience complete! Thank you for letting us celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary at your lovely cottage! Sincerely, Sandy & Tom Doyle

  Dear Freeborns, Thank you so much for allowing my friends from college to have our new, annual reunion here at your lake cottage! It was truly a "carefree" weekend and a time to catch up with old friends! We look forward to doing this again next year!

  Dear Claudia & David, We want to thank you so much for a wonderful weekend! Carefree Cottage is just that - CAREFREE, and I can't tell you how much we appreciate that! The little touches you made to our stay made our 8th Wedding Anniversary a special one! When we have time to get away again, we will be sure to call you first!
