Beautiful and welcoming home. We loved being on the lake with our family. We enjoyed kayaking and swimming off the nice dock. It’s close to restaurants and the grocery store. Our hosts were very responsive. Our family couldn’t have loved the home more. Great place to vacation and unwind.

Hiawassee fall vacation

This was a great location, peaceful and quiet. The house was lovely, with more than enough for the four of us. The host was very responsive and helpful about informing us of various locations and activities that would interest us. The house was located by a large lake, which had great fishing.

Beautiful home

Beautiful, comfortable home to spend a few days with our college-age kids on their fall break. It was a bit chilly out, so we didn’t really take advantage of the lake unfortunately. The house was very clean and all the beds were super comfy! We will definitely consider staying here again if we find ourselves in the area.

Perfect cottage lake house

This house and property were exactly as promised! Everything was so beautiful and well kept. We absolutely loved the back patio area and also the fire pit we used most nights. The dock was perfect for the boat we rented and Lake Chatuge is stunning! We will definitely be back to this wonderful modern cottage!

Wonderful lake get away

The house was perfect - open, airy, clean, well-stocked, beautifully decorated, comfortable. Such easy access to the lake. My son said that he "wants to leave there"! Just be careful to not lock yourselves out on the upstairs balcony/deck!

Hi Christie! So glad you enjoyed your stay and that your son was so enamored with the place. I’d love to hear the whole story on getting locked out in the back deck - I think that’s a first! Thanks again for booking with us and please think of us again on your next trip to the lake!

Wonderful week in a wonderful home!

We spent 5 night and 6 days in this wonderful home! Well stocked kitchen, plenty of room for family and of course the lake! This home was clean and cared for. Quiet neighborhood and nice outdoor fire pit that we loved. Back porch a great place for coffee and meals. Just an overall great week!

Super Lake Home

This is the second time we are here and just love the house and location. House has great amenities with lots of space for everyone to sleep and enjoy their stay. This home has a boat dock so we were able to rent a boat at Boundary Waters Marina and were able to bring the boat to the house. Quiet cove to hang out on the dock. We would rent here again!!

Perfect for family weekend getaway

Very spacious house, well laid out and very comfortable. We made several meals in the well equipped kitchen which was great, even had a large dining room table to enjoy. Ping-pong table in the basement was a big hit! Weather was also good enough to still enjoy the lake, (paddle boarding and kayaking) and even though the lake level is down for the winter, you could still easily access it from the end of the dock.

Enjoyable relaxing vacation

We stayed as a family of 5 and had an enjoyable and relaxing time. The home is exactly as pictured with all amenities needed. There was plenty of room to spread out. We played games, went kayaking, baked cookies and brownies and most of our meals. The home was located in an area with a short drive to town We will definitely be back for a future visit.

Most Relaxing Vacation!

We loved staying at this gorgeous home for the past week. It is so relaxing being on the lake and living in a quiet neighborhood. The house is unbelievably clean and well-kept; you will not be disappointed. The kids loved using the ping pong table in the basement, and the 2 kayaks on the lake. The porch was a great place to sit with family and play cards, eat dinner, and have conversations. We had a lot of fun and would definitely come again!

We had a blast!

Your home is gorgeous and we loved every minute! It’s so close to everything - steps from the lake and kayaking, minutes from boat rentals, tubing, ziplining, ropes courses, etc. Yet, it’s so quiet and peaceful. Our kids were sufficiently worn out from the lake every day, but they still managed to play table tennis each night! The kitchen was great and rooms were so spacious! We will definitely be back!

Girls Trip

We are a group of 7 retired ladies from Florida looking for an escape from the Florida’s summer heat. This beautiful home was the perfect base for our hikes, wine tastings, lake activities, board games, etc. Everyone in the group loved the house and its beautiful decor. We enjoyed the easy access to the lake via the home’s private dock. The dock also made a fun spot for the group’s morning Pilates workout.

Beautiful Bare-minimum lake house

The house is gorgeous, the location is great and the lake cove beautiful. However we nicknamed the house bare-minimum, none of the 4 bedrooms have dressers (having to live out of our luggage of the floor giving it the feel of hostel stay) all the furniture and decor is very bare-minimum, giving the stay a cold vague vibe, not cozy or homey at all.

Sylvie, Thanks for booking and for your feedback. It’s true, the home decor is modern and minimalist, just as it is depicted in the photographs. However, just to clarify for other guests, all bedrooms have closets with hangers and a bench or shelf on which to place luggage/clothing. The primary bedroom also has drawers in the base of the bed to accommodate clothing. We supply all towels and linens, and stock the kitchen with all the necessities, so I’m surprised you felt like this was the bare minimum. I am happy to hear that you liked the location and our cove though, and we do hope you enjoyed your time in North Georgia! Tanya

Fun Lakehouse

We rented a ski boat at Boundary Waters Marina and utilized the kayaks and bellyak at the house. They also had 2 adult life jackets and 2 youth life jackets and some floats. The kids had so much fun swimming in the lake and paddling around. We also had a great time using the fire pit in the evenings as well. The house is well stocked with everything we needed. It was incredibly clean and beds were really comfortable. We will definitely come back again. We also loved going up to Bell Mountain and looking at the beautiful views. It’s such a pretty place to stay and fun for all ages.

Amazing views. Magical memories.

Eternally grateful for the pleasure of staying at your cabin. Indescribably beautiful; perfect for our Christmas/New Year with the family. Tanya has thought of everything! The mattresses were so comfortable, soft sheets, everyone slept so well. Cabin decor was perfect, everything as pictured. Nothing will beat the view of the lake.... gorgeous! Gas grill worked perfect. Fire lakeside to roast marshmallows. Thank you again. Such a lovely place.

Wonderful house! Highly recommend!

We loved staying at this house. We booked it for my boyfriend’s birthday. We planned to have a lake weekend and rent a boat. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate for the boat but the house more than made up for not being able to get out on the water. The house is beautifully decorated and has a great layout. We especially enjoyed the downstairs living room and ping pong table. Tanya was wonderful to work with and very quick to respond. We loved it so much we wanted to book it again for Memorial Day but it’s already booked. Would highly recommend renting this house if you are planning a lake weekend at Chatuge Lake!

Perfect

This lake house was perfect. Our “framily” of 8 stayed here for 5 nights. The homeowner was quick to respond and was very helpful. There was plenty of room for all of us. Everything was spotless and clean for our arrival. It is a very convenient location to many towns and different attractions. We stuck to hanging out at the house and hiking the many trails that were near by. The road has easy access and the house was welcoming and felt very safe. The downstairs area was the perfect hangout spot for the kids. The adults enjoyed our evenings either around the bonfire or inside around the fireplace. Many great memories were made here and we hope to return again.

Fantastic Family Vacation!

We called it Lake Escape 2024, but we also could call it Fantastic! This rental provided everything we needed for grandparents, kids and toddler grandkids. We’ve stayed in a lot of vacation rentals, but never one so thoughtfully and thoroughly stocked—dish liquid, laundry supplies, all linens including lake towels, hand soaps, toilet tissue, paper towels, etc.—and not just sample or starter sizes! Although we brought kayaks and lake toys/floats from home, the house offers that too! Roomy, tastefully decorated spaces inside gave us areas to be together, but also areas to chill out and nap. We made good use of the fire pit and daily use of the dock. We all had such a good time. One of the grandsons said it best—“We come back here soon?”
