If you are looking for a place on Lake Lanier, look no further. This is a wonderful spot from every perspective. Highly recommend it to all. Kate is over the top friendly, communicative, informative, helpful, kind, generous and accommodating-- just outstanding overall. The house is beautiful, stocked with everything you can hope for and sitting a few steps away from the lake. We spent three days here and truly hated to leave. Have been staying in rental properties for many years and have never, ever been happier. We hope to return often.

This is one of the best properties we’ve ever visited. The house was super clean and the owner was fantastic. She had great recommendations and made our experience unforgettable. We visited the area for some concerts in Alpharetta. She took the time to look up who was in concert and upon our arrival, the Alexa started playing their music. This was an incredibly thoughtful touch. We will 100% return.

Beautiful house on the lake

The house was beautiful - high spec decor, fully stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. The position on the lake had perfect views and was really accessible with the kids. The games room, kids outide play area and access to the rowing boat were a huge bonus and meant the children were never bored! The host is attentive with immediate responses to any questions about our stay, we will certainly visit again!

Fabulous Lakefront Home and Hostess

This beautifully appointed home is designed for memory making with your loved ones, and includes so many thoughtful items, like the games, yummy smelling soaps, and luxurious bedding. Kate is an incredible hostess and had the house fully decorated for Christmas and holiday music playing on our arrival. We are already discussing future visits!

Perfect Thanksgiving

We stayed at The Blue Cottage over the Thanksgiving holiday. I’ve stayed in many Vrbos, but never has one been this well equipped! It was amazing. The house was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and the view of the lake was gorgeous. Honestly, the only thing that would have made it better is if it was my house!

Beautiful home with everything you need!

The host has left nothing out of this rental. I have stayed in many homes but this one is one of the cleanest I have ever stayed in. The host has also provided everything you could ask for in amenities (and more)! It is so nice they allow people to use their kayaks and provide life jackets. The coffee pods were a nice bonus ! I would definitely recommend this home!

Beautiful lake house right on the lake nice area.

This house is fabulous. It’s better than the pictures show it so welcoming and clean. There was everything imaginable that you would ever need for a lovely vacation. We had a marvelous time and would love to come back to this house. It’s in a great area as well many things to do very close by. Kate was great to deal with and very generous with things that she left for us. Thank you again.
