Close to the lake, cottage feel

Cute cottage close to the lake. Our son was in a kayaking competition at the Olympic Park- this little cottage was 5 minutes away! We were out early and back late, but we appreciated this little home away from home. We stayed in August and appreciated the cool constant air conditioning. The cottage was perfect for three or four people. The two bedrooms are close so we can keep an eye on the children. The kitchen was well stocked and cozy. Wi-Fi worked great. The bathrooms were clean, water, pressure good. It had everything we needed.

Great home away from home

When I am looking for an AirB&B, we are looking for a place that feels like a home away from home....home base. We so appreciated the accommodations and the owners excellent communication.

Vacay to relax

Our stay was mostly for my son to see his girlfriend. The location of the house was situated in the middle of her home and the airport. Having the house to ourselves was relaxing in itself. You didn’t have to walk on egg shells not to make noise. The convenience for shopping and eating was close. The lake not to far away was calming. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Christmas at "Get Hooked"

We enjoyed our stay at "Get Hooked". The property was exactly as described! Everything was clean and comfortable. The owner has thought of everything you might need or want, including a beautiful full-size Christmas tree which made the Christmas holiday that much more special. We were at the house during freezing temperatures and the heating worked like a charm keeping us very cozy. Due to the cold weather, we did not spend any time outdoors, but would have loved to spend time on the deck or around the fire ring. The lighting was a little dim for reading in the big room. Beds and sheets were comfortable, towels were soft, and we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful time. Thank you so much. We will return again.

Cozy little cottage

We rented this wonderful little house for a weekend to visit our boys who at Riverside military academy. It was very convenient to the campus. We brought their girlfriends and had other friends stay with us. There was plenty of room for all. It was a cozy wonderful house and we especially liked the fire pit in the back. We had a wonderful time thank you so much. We will return again and again.

Very Comfortable

House was very nice and located very close to the boat ramp at linear park. There is very limited parking for boat trailers and the carport ceiling is starting to come down so we could not park under the carport otherwise was a very very nice stay-and we hope to go back to Lanier and stay there again !!

Great place within walking distance to Lake Lanier!

Very nice home with a very responsive property owner. The owner checked on us and went out of her way to assist us when we couldn’t figure out the TVs. Lovely home with lots of room to spread out. Within walking distance to a beautiful lake where you can walk, fish, go boating, etc. Checking in was very easy. Nicely furnished, has a washer/dryer downstairs and a covered carport. Lovely front porch to sit on too! Would definitely recommend!

Our Labor Day Trip

We had a great time staying at this property. The owner did a great job of communicating and making sure we had everything we needed. Our goal was to spend as much time on Lake Lanier as possible and having the Laurel Park and their boat ramp a 1/4 mile away was ideal. We were able to park our 18' boat and keep it attached to the car, although it was a tight fit. Overall, the house interior was clean and well kept. The only negative was with the exterior of the house which needed some TLC - grass needed cutting, grill needed cleaning, and the house could do with a good power wash. I would stay there again if we decide to return to Lanier for another boating excursion.
