As the day dawns, awake to the beauty of the mist rising off the lake as Charlie Mountain watches over from above. Sip a morning cup of coffee on the covered lower deck, or settle into a comfy Adirondack glider on the open upper deck.
When you’re ready to play on the lake, there's much to do! Your private dock area enticingly awaits in front of the cottage. Bring your own boat or rent one from nearby marinas. Ski, swim and splash in refreshing mountain waters. Cast a fishing line and catch your supper. Soak up some rays. Celebrate a sunset.
And, if you can ever tear yourself away from the lake, more adventures abound! Hike along the Appalachian, slip down Sliding Rock, explore beautiful state parks, go white-water rafting, enjoy shopping and antiquing, play a round of golf, or sample the delicious flavors of area restaurants.
Then, as twilight falls upon the Blue Ridge, be dazzled by the night sky. Fall asleep to the sounds of the mountains.
Come enjoy the simple pleasures of our House by the Side of the Lake. You may never want to leave!

The Unique Benefits at this Mountain Cottage
Waking up to the reflection of Charlie Mountain as morning mist rises off the lake, hearing the laughter of loved ones playing on the water, boating amidst the beauty of the Blue Ridge, sitting on the deck as dusk falls and the stars start to twinkle, and being in the most beautiful, peaceful place we know.
Owner's Map of Lake Burton
Sisters Charlotte and Martha Miller have been coming to Lake Burton since the late 1960's. As children, we fell in love with the lake on our first visit to the cabin of a dear family friend. It wasn't long before our parents found a lake home to call our own! Through the years, many happy memories have been created here with family and friends. Spending time at the lake is truly a cherished tradition and we invite you to come begin your own memories!

We had a great time at the lake and your house is perfect. Everything worked out very well, we were able to dock our boat in your other slip, and our kids loved your place too. We did lots of swimming, skiing, wakeboarding, etc. Your location (close to Anchorage) is great and we loved being so close to the water. - The Eidson Family, Atlanta
