🎉🏡 **WELCOME TO THE BELLISSIMO LODGE - WHERE THE FUN NEVER STOPS!** 🏡🎉
Oh, can you hear it? That’s the beautiful symphony of laughter, splashes, and family fun tuning up for your arrival! Book a **2-NIGHT STAY** (Friday and Saturday, because let’s be real, who wants to haggle with Wednesday?) for a mind-boggling **$1600 per night!** We're rolling out the welcome mat with an **early check-in at 10 AM**—because wasting time in a parking lot is soooo last year! And don’t sweat it, because with a **3 PM late check-out**, you can sneak in a few extra games of pickleball and secure your title as the family champion! 🥇
And if you think that’s a deal, **hold onto your party hats!** Book a **3rd night** for just **$800!** Yes, you heard that right; it’s practically a steal! So good, you might just want to break out into a victory dance. 💃 (Available in January, February, and April—sorry not-summer folks! Text us for more amazing deals!)
🏊‍♂️ **Worried about Mother Nature?** Not here! 🏊‍♀️

And speaking of luxury, our **elaborate water features** (yes, **waterfalls** into the pool—because why not?) and snack-laden BBQs at our covered pavilion will have you living the life of a Pinterest project gone right! 50’ foot pool with overflow tub. Can be heated with a propane deposit.
✨ **And the house? Oh boy, here’s the real star:**
- **9 bedrooms** stuffed with **16 beds!** That’s right, grab those sleep masks because you’ll need ‘em! 💤
- **3 levels!** Because it’s more fun when you can lose track of your family members!
- Experience games galore with a **pool table**, **air hockey**, **golden tee golf simulator**, **ping pong**, **foosball**, and add in some **ax-throwing**! Yes, unleash your inner lumberjack without the need for therapy! 🪓🏆
📍 Now, here’s the cherry on top: You're right on glorious Lake Chatuge with your very own **private dock**! Rent luxury boats, paddleboards, and kayaks (available only from May 1 to September 30—awkward for a snowman).

This s property has a lot of potential and the owner has a great vision for what the property could be. The current house use and grounds need a little TLC, but the additions make the property have amazing potential! It is secluded which is so nice. The sleeping arrangements need a little more clarity, but having multiple places to prepare meals is so nice for multiple families. Love Hiawassee and Lake Chatuge!!

Memorial Day Reunion

We had 26 people and had plenty of room. The house has 2 complete kitchens which was a plus. The pool and outdoor kitchen were not an easy walk very steep slope but thankfully the owner provided a golf cart to get down to the area. Has quite a bit of construction going on around the pool and outdoor kitchen area but it didn’t interfere much. All in all we had a great time.

Great vacation place for large crowd. Loved having the well equipped outdoor kitchen, the amazing covered pickleball court, lovely pool and waterfall. Having the outdoor tv along with karaoke was lots of fun! The two indoor kitchens made it possible to store food, drinks etc and cook inside if necessary for a large crowd. We also enjoyed the hot tub on the deck. It was great to have the pontoon to enjoy the lake. Golf cart was such a help and definitely necessary. This quiet remote getaway was perfect for our crowd. David was easily available and super easy to work with.

Large Extended Family Vacation _PA, OH and TN

The overall description of the house was accurate. There was plenty of room for 15 adults and 3 children. The outdoor area, pool, pickleball court and kitchen was amazing! It was a wonderful area to hang out all day and night. We also rented the pontoon boat which provided hours of fun along with the paddle boards, water trampoline, paddle boat, kayak, etc. There are so many things to do at the property that you never need to leave the property. The huge porch overlooking the lake was an awesome spot for family gatherings and dinner. Dave, the owner, is nice and friendly and provided us with TP, paper towels, paper plates, plasticware, shampoo, conditioner and body wash, which was nice for a rental property. The inside of the house needs a little bit of TLC, but the overall experience was excellent! We would definitely rent the property again! In 25 years of renting summer homes for an extended family vacation, this is the only property we all agreed is worth renting again!

Thanksgiving with family

The house worked out great for our multi generation family. The two kitchens were great and met our needs. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplaces. Dave was great to work with and was available to answer any questions. It was a very cold weekend but some of our family used the pickleball court. We would definitely stay again
