Had an amazing stay at Therese and Tom’s cabin. Arrival instructions were spot on. Once we arrived the house was clean and as described. We really enjoyed the back patio with the hot tub and loved the fire pit in the back yard. Definitely plan to return if I am back at lake Burton anytime soon.

We had a wonderful stay on Lake Burton. We really appreciated the space to spread out between two families. The house was fully stocked with all of the things we needed to start our weekend and the extra things we managed to forget. i.e-Beach Towels, detergent, and welcome snacks!
