My partner and I had such a wonderful three-night stay at the cozy cabin—truly our perfect getaway. We loved unwinding in the hot tub every evening; it was definitely the highlight of our trip. The gas fireplace was also a hit, keeping the living room warm and inviting during chilly nights. We absolutely recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a relaxing escape!

Wonderful vacation at the lake!

We had a wonderful week at The Over Look Cabin! It was such a peaceful location with everything you could want! The cabin was well stocked and immaculately clean. The hot tub on the deck was so relaxing. We enjoyed fishing at Lake Burton and Lake Seed. The driveway is a bit steep and the mountain road is curvy, but we easily rented a spot to park our boat at LaPrades. We grilled fish at the cabin, but also enjoyed a few dinners out in Clayton. We had a lovely time!
