About this property

Lake Lanier Hideaway Lakefront with Game Room and Dock

Close to everything, yet away from it all.

Welcome to Hideaway Cove—your peaceful lake escape on one of the northernmost coves of Lake Lanier, where the Chestatee River feeds into the lake. Surrounded by nature yet only minutes from essentials, it’s the perfect base for relaxation or adventure.

Property Highlights

Covered boat dock (8.5 ft at full pool)



2 canoes for guest use (at your own risk; please wear life jackets)



Fire pit & horseshoes



Game room with ping pong, darts, air hockey, and pool table



Blackout curtains in all bedrooms



Paraben-free toiletries + tear-free shampoo in the primary bath



Pack-n-play, highchair, children’s books, puzzles, and games



No pets due to our son’s severe allergies.

No parties.

Layout

Entry Level: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, living room

Lower Level: 2 rooms, 1 bathroom, family room with walk-out deck overlooking the lake

Basement (outside access): Game room

Although the listing shows two bedrooms, the home actually includes four and can comfortably sleep 10 adults.. We keep the listing conservative to avoid large groups and because of a records discrepancy—thank you for understanding!

Renters have full access to the entire home. Plenty of parking in the Y-shaped driveway (no parking on grass or street).

Location

A quaint neighborhood at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains—quiet and secluded, yet only 20 minutes from dining, shopping, and attractions. Expect to pass horses, sheep, and cows on the way in, and keep an eye out for deer at night!

Approximate travel times:

Dahlonega – 20 min



Helen – 40–45 min



Atlanta – 1 hour



Nearby Activities

Award-winning wineries (Wolf Mountain, Cavender Creek, Frogtown)



Historic Downtown Dahlonega – dining & shopping



Chestatee Wildlife Preserve



Chestatee River Adventures – tubing & kayaking



North Georgia Premium Outlets



University of North Georgia



Gold mining (Consolidated Gold Mine)



BabyLand General (Cabbage Patch Hospital)



Horseback riding at Sunny Farms North



Helen – Anna Ruby Falls, Bavarian village, alpine coaster



Burt’s Pumpkin Farm (seasonal), Hillcrest Apple Orchards, Amicalola Falls

The cove is ideal for kayaks and jet skis. Larger boats may prefer deeper water just 5–10 minutes around the bend.

Home was clean and neat with a cabin feel. Came to kayak fish but weather changed to poor. 15 minute kayak ride to Lumpkin ramp, which was convenient to use dock for boats / kayaks. Nice stay. One thing, no garbage cans on site..

This is a very pretty home that has a slight view of a cove on Lake Lanier. Well stocked and clean. 4 very good size bedrooms. There is a ton of steps to get from the main floor to the lower balcony and then more to the game room. Then another long run to the dock. They want you to observe quiet time at 10 since it’s in an existing neighborhood with close neighbors. Didn’t remember seeing that when booking. Overall it’s great for a family get away. Not a friends weekend out. No complaints. Just my review.

Comfortable Family House

The two levels of the house offered the privacy our two families needed. It was very clean, spacious, and well stocked. We especially enjoyed sitting on top of the boat dock. I haven't been to any Georgia lakes before so didn't expect the water to be quite so muddy but enjoyed the use of the canoes.
