Amazing!
This Lake Lanier cottage was absolutely perfect for our small family of 3. Clean, beautifully decorated, very well stocked with everything we needed and more, and amazing location right on the lake to top it off. We wouldn't hesitate to rent again if we return to the area.

About the host
Hosted by Yves Boudreau
The cottage is a little over 800 square feet, recently updated across every room with new appliances, fresh paint and new flooring. There are no parties permitted. The Canadian Cottage only holds up to 4 guests and we do not have air mattresses. We’ve poured our hearts in the cottage to make it feel cozy with all you need, and also encourage guests to go ‘jump in the lake!’
Our driveway only accommodates three vehicles, and our dock does have a weight limit. This is a beautiful place to relax with a small group. The quiet coves are great for swimming or calm paddle boarding for hours with low boat traffic. Soak up the sun on the top dock, swing in the hanging chairs or hammock and feel the calm breeze from the lake. It’s a wonderful place to relax!!
This is the closest point of South Lake Lanier to Atlanta.
We have a strict NO SMOKING NO VAPING policy and we ask to keep our little slice of heaven as such!

Why they chose this property
This cottage reminds us of summers in Canada with wildlife, fishing, calm waters and beautiful relaxing scenery
What makes this property unique
This is quiet neighborhood with calm and deep water with very little boat traffic. It's the closest you'll get to Atlanta without having to drive hours to down windy roads to get a place on the main channel where boat traffic is heavy and the dock is not quiet and enjoyable.
