Location: Waleska, Lake Arrowhead, Northwest High Country, Georgia, USA (One Hour from Atlanta, Marietta, Kennesaw, Woodstock, GA) View Map
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths (Sleeps 8-10)
Keywords: Lake House, water front, Atlanta, Lake Arrowhead
The SailAway lakehome is located on beautiful Lake Arrowhead Georgia nestled in the foothills of the Great Smokey Mountains just north of Atlanta, Georgia. Located only 1 hour north of Atlanta, this is the perfect getaway for the week or quiet three day weekend!
We just purchased a new Manitou 18 Ft pontoon with a 70 HP outboard motor that is available for rent. The pontoon has a large bimini top, AM/FM/CD, parked right at the dock for easy sunset dinners. Rent for the week at $800 or $150 per day for a three day minimum.
Lake Arrowhead is a private lake/community with over 540 acres of a clear mountain spring water, making this the largest private lake in Georgia. The community offers a wide range of activities including golf, swimming, and tennis.
This lake front home is located on Lake Arrowhead (in north Georgia) with a dock, which is perfect for swimming, fishing, and sunning. With 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, the house will accommodate 8 - 10 people comfortably. Not only does the lake house come fully equipped with all the necessary furnishings, we also offer a luxurious 6 person hot tub on the deck with a beautiful view of the lake!
Lake Arrowhead is a private, gated community that contains the largest man made lake in Georgia. Lake Arrowhead offers gorgeous scenic mountain terrain overlooking the community's crystal clear 540 acre spring-fed lake. Because it is a continuous spring-fed lake, the water level rarely fluctuates over a foot.
During a recent water quality test, it was reported the lake was one of the cleanest in Georgia. No septic systems are allowed on the lake and the dam is a spill-over which helps remove floating debris keeping this lake sparkling.
Your travels throughout the community will take you past several breathtaking scenic overlooks with a view of the lake, rolling hills, and golf course. Lake Arrowhead offers a championship 18-hole golf course, driving range, an arrowhead-shaped swimming pool, tennis courts, and a club house with restaurant overlooking the lake.
Make sure you stop by the covered bridge at the south entrance before dusk. The deer are grazing in the water just under the bridge. This is a perfect opportunity for a quick photo and then move down the hill and park on the dam to take a few snapshots of the sun setting into the mountains while overlooking the lake.

Lakefront - Beautiful Lake/Mountain View, Fish, Pontoon Rental
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Waleska
This lake house is close to Marietta (which is where we live) and Atlanta. The water level rarely fluctuates, even in a drought, and the water is crystal clean.
Lake Arrowhead is a private lake to which you must have access to fish. That is why the lake is so full of large fish.
The Unique Benefits at this House
At the lake house you will be one hour from the city, but feel like you are thousands of miles away. New kitchen, spa, and new king size beds await your stay. Walking trails that allow you to get away from it all. New pontoon boat that is available for rent makes it easy to enjoy the lake.
Over 5 miles of walking trails await you. Connecting the lake to the clubhouse. New tunnel added and deep woods await.
The pool is just right for you and your family to enjoy. Located next to the pool are the tennis courts.
Lake Arrowhead just finished there new clubhouse. Great food and drinks. You don't have to be a member to enjoy the clubhouse.
The new championship Highlands Course opened to rave reviews in fall 2008! It is now considered one of the best new golf courses in Georgia.
Swimming Pool, Batting Cage, large open field, and large playground are waiting for you and your kids.
Owner's Map of Waleska
We are a family of four and love the lake life! We own this house to help keep our family involved in the same extracurricular activities....boating, swimming, fishing, and just sitting on the deck and watching the sun and moon come up over the mountains.
We are very blessed to own this house and love to share the joy with others.

Went back for a second visit to SailAway for Columbus Day weekend in October. We found it to be just as peaceful as last year. It is a perfect getaway less than an hour from Atlanta. You feel like you are hours into the mountains. The serenity and beauty of the lake is like no other. Bob is a wonderful host. The communication along with the ammenities in the house were perfect for our family and friends. Comfortable!

Family travels from 2 other states during Christmas and GA is the center meeting grounds for everyone. We rented this lakefront home and everyone fell in love. The view is beautiful, the home is completely stocked with anything and everything you need. It's convenient to a near by grocery store if needed and only 20 min from town. This is our second stay at this lake house and we'll continue to rent from the owner for all our vacation needs.

2 families (8+) stayed at Sail Away for Thanksgiving. The kids loved having the downstairs foozball and tv all to themselves. The men loved the fishing from the dock and the ladies loved drinking their wine on the deck swing. There was plenty of plates,silverware,glasses, pots and pans to accommodate a whole Thanksgiving dinner. The place is very peaceful and the view from the house is spectacular. Having and using the canoe was fun. The hotub was a great addition in the chilly evenings. Everyone had a wonderful time:)

This was a perfect place for our family to spend time together and attend a family wedding near this property. The kitchen had lots of plates, bowls, kettles, etc. to make our meals. It was nice having a dish washer so we didn't have to spend time doing dishes. The bedrooms were perfect. In the lower level there were electronic games for the younger adult kids. The property was clean and well maintained. The view was also beautiful. It was in October and the trees were pretty. I would definitely go back.

Cleanest house we have ever rented with everything a person can ask for. Not only is the house beautiful, but the view of the lake is awesome. Access to the lake is only a few dozen steps to a beautiful deck with a pontoon boat, padle boat, and cannoe. If you are looking for a great vacation destination and a great place to stay this is the place to be! We have rented homes and cabins all over the USA in places like Northern Minnasotta, Winsconsin, and Tennessee and all the places we have stayed at didn't have the total package like the SailAway house.

Our family LOVES staying at Lake Arrowhead. This location is situated in a perfect spot on the lake. The view of the water is beautiful and the area is quiet and so peaceful. We fished, swam, canoed, and relaxed. Our kids had so much fun. Because the lake isn't crowded, I felt completely safe with them on the water. We have already recommended this vacation to some of our friends.

Hello Audience, We are a family of 7 adults and 5 children(ages 3-9). Our stay was simply the best family vacation that we've ever had. The weather was very stormy the first night, but thereafter it was almost perfect. The lake is beautiful, clean, & clear. The water was about 75 degrees Fahrenheit on the surface most of the 5 days which made for invigorating swims and playtime for the children. With small children, we maintained a close control and lifeguarding detail anytime the children were down at the dock. The canoe and paddleboat were a nice extra. We had brought our own fishing boat. The dock is perfectly placed and outfitted with tiedowns, etc. The lake house was perfect for our needs and comfort. The staff at the real estate office for the lake association were very cordial and helpful. Bob and Tamara were over the top in their response, guidance, and preparation of their home. Thanks again for a great stay. I Peter 4:9 & Malachi 3:16. We look forward to coming back sometimes in the future. Sincerely, Paul Lowery

Great house for a get-away! Canoe and paddle boat and hot tub add to the terrific view and comfortable beds. Hang out on the two house decks and the water deck for sun and fun. We had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend and celebrated a 90th birthday of the Great-grandmother with family all there. Super lake house in great location. All was cleaned right before we arrived and the hot tub drained and cleaned and frilled. The Club Grill at Lake Arrowhead was super for dinner and for carry-out; we chose to bring pizzas back and they were delicious, as was the dinner on Saturday. There were 20 of us spread over two rental lake houses and my own home in Lake Arrowhead, and we had a wonderful time on the Lake. Cold mountain water was refreshing! Thanks, Bob, for a great house rental.

This house is beautiful!!! There is plenty of space - 3 King size beds, a bunk room, and a sleeper sofa. The kitchen has all the amenities to prepare a large meal. The deck has an excellent view of the lake and the hot tub provides a great place to enjoy the view from the deck. I highly recommend this house for a relaxing weekend away from Atlanta. The house is on a quiet street and a low traffic area on the lake. We had a great stay!!!!
