Hide-A-Way Cove – Luxury Lakefront Retreat on Lake Burton

 

 

UPDATE  September 2025 -  lake levels are lowering daily.  Owner wants to make sure no one is bringing a boat during the draw down times, as the cove is too low for boat entry.  

This 4 BR, 3 BA home is over 2600 sq ft of spacious elegance where you, your family & friends will delight in gathering. Step into this bright, open floor plan with white, crisp walls that set off the deep earthy wood floors, the massive stacked stone fireplace, exposed beams, great room with soaring ceilings and a gourmet kitchen with top of the line stainless steel appliances. Anyone who enjoys cooking will love the 6 burner pro series Viking range with double ovens & griddle and charcoal outdoor grill.

Three sets of French doors lead to the welcoming full length screened in porch overlooking the lake just waiting for endless hours of games, stories, dining & relaxation! The fully finished lower level completes the home with bedroom & bath, a second large seating area, brand new ping pong table and a door leading you to endless hours of outdoor fun. Whether it be a game of corn hole or lounging in the hammock. Bring your paddle boarding, kayak, fishing poles or just hang out on the large covered party deck above the boat house. You will love this location on the south side of the lake in Murray Cove. Come get away from it all!

Drive to nearby Clayton, GA. for a wonderful selection of restaurants to choose from.
