About this property
Almost Perfect Cabin with an access to Lake Hartwell
Attention: We are the last dock in the cove and we totally dried out. No water activities are possible right of the dock.Water will be back in late February. Deep water access for all water activities is available at public boat ramp within two minutes all year around.
Our home is a very nice and cozy A-style log cabin on Lake Hartwell’s lakefront property, in Gumlog, GA.
If you’re looking to escape the concrete jungles and urban grind of metro / city living, for a nice break, rest, and relaxation; this is an ideal choice.
The house is in an idyllic, and quiet setting on beautiful Lake Hartwell, on the Georgia side.
You will be in a pristine country setting, very close to the foothills (beginnings) of the Appalachian Mountains; yet do not have to give up on benefits of a modern home.
Our cabin is fully furnished and equipped with all amenities: Central air (HVAC); kitchen appliances, smart TVs, and wifi internet.
Floor plan is very open, with living area having an all-wood cathedral ceiling for a beautiful, classy look and feel.
Loft has a master (king size) bed, and a landing / lounge area with 65” smart TV, a chaise lounge, and a pull-out sofa. (Sleeps 2)
Living area (downstairs) has 2 bedrooms.
One of them is kid friendly; with 1 bunk (i.e. 2 twin size) bed and another separate twin bed. (Sleeps 3)
The other downstairs bedroom has a luxury queen size bed.
A covered deck with a grill completes the cabin.
The property is off the main road in very quiet surroundings in over an acre of land.
A dock on the lake is part of the property and is ideal for launching kayaks and canoes off it.
The water level at the dock varies depending on the month of the year. When the lake is at full pool; most boats can also be moored at the dock.
(Boat Ramp is around the corner on the main road; 0.4 miles away.)
We provide floats, life jackets, etc.; you can have a fun time just lounging / hanging out at the dock. + 2 kayaks, lake pad, 1 kid kayak
We are eager to host you and yours; looking forward to providing a five-star experience during your stay.
