Accommodations: Cottage, 2 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-5)
Gypsy's cottage at Lake Eufaula is a wonderful retreat on the south portion of Lake Eufaula. The cottage sits on two acres in a gated community with a partial river view through the trees. Lake Eufaula (Lake Walter F. George) is a 45,000-acre, fresh water, recreation lake known as "The Bass Capital of the World." The lake offers year round outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, and skiing. The area is also well known for hunting as deer and other small game and birds are plentiful.
Our cottage offers two bedrooms, (one full bed and one queen bed), and one bath with a back porch overlooking the back yard and a partial view of the lake, a large sloping landscaped yard full of flowering trees, pines, and seasonal bushes. There is a two-person Hot Tub located on the lower level for your private use (you fill when you arrive). On the side of the yard is a picnic table, a swing, and a fire pit. The cottage does not have direct water access but is on the top of a hill very close to the water. The development offers a private fishing dock and swimming beach on the loop down by the lake. A Corp of Engineers camping area and boat launch site is within one mile south at Hardridge Creek.
Eufaula offers many sightseeing opportunities including antique shopping, historical homes and sites, six 18 hole golf courses, over 50 restaurants, etc. For more information on all the region has to offer visit the sites provided.

Why the Owner Chose Lake George (Lake Eufaula)
We choose to buy a vacation cottage here because of the beauty of the lake and surrounding area.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
This area is a very peaceful setting. While you can enjoy all the sports that the water and the surrounding hunting area provides, you can also just sit on the back deck and relax, or walk down to the community dock and watch the lake. Enjoy.
