This was the perfect stay for our family. The cottage was clean, the bedrooms were spacious, and there were lots of activities provided on site. We enjoyed our stay. If you are considering this location, don't hesitate to book.
We came for a family event in the area and wanted an alternative to hotels. The cottage is quaint, well stocked and the fam had fun seeing the wildlife near the dock. Unique experience!
Our stay was absolutely amazing! The cottage was just as listed, very comfortable, plenty of room and a beautiful view. Deer were seen every morning and evening.
We will definitely be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The rental was just as described in the posting, the place was very clean, and very well stocked with utensils, and linens needed, the neighborhood was very quiet. The listing was not exaggerated.
It is a short walk to the lake, but the view is worth it.
First of all the house is stunning. Loved all the finishes they were just so pretty. We loved the location on the lake. Due to time restraints we were unable to use the lake. But would love to return for a longer stay. We loved all the space in house, everyone had their own room and bathroom to use. Owner was in contact and awesome. We would highly recommend this home as a must visit!
Beautiful lake cottage on Lake Lanier! This was a wonderful place to stay. The lake cottage had a quaint, rustic charm and the overall “feel” of the place was peaceful and relaxing. Everything was as described, and the lake cottage was well-appointed. Beds were comfortable and everyone was happy to have a queen bed to sleep in. It was great to have a kitchen and washer/dryer for laundry during our stay. Also, Wayne was kind to provide access to the dock for a boat and had a kayak and paddle board available for us to use. Highly recommend! Thank you for a lovely vacation experience. It made this birthday trip memorable!
This little cottage felt like my family’s summer cottage on the bay in Maryland. If you are looking for a super modern home, this isn’t it. It was a bit of a hodge podge of furniture and décor but had a comfortable homey feel that I can appreciate. It was quiet, clean and had plenty of space for our family. We didn’t cook while we were there so I can’t speak much to the kitchen equipment, aside from the toaster and microwave for quick breakfasts. The laundry room was great to have. We did bring laundry soap from home, but there was some to use if you hadn’t, so that was nice. Upstairs the bedrooms were decent sized. The primary bedroom with the windows all the way across the back of the house was really neat! The only thing I found quite odd, and I was not a fan of, is that the ensuite bathroom is completely open to the bedroom. Zero privacy in that one. All three bathrooms had really nice walk-in showers with benches and toiletries available if you forgot your own. The water pressure and temps were great, which is a big deal after swimming in the lake all day! The use of the dock was awesome. While I know the home is in a very wooded area, the veranda could use a good bit of cleaning up. The owner was very responsive when we reached out to him. While the neighborhood feels remote and is all dirt/gravel roads, it’s also in a convenient location to lots of stores and restaurants. We had a wonderful time here. Overall, I recommend this home for your stay on Lake Lanier.
Cozy little house. Bathrooms are awesome and beds are comfortable. Great stay! It would be nice if the county would pave the road but didn’t effect our trip.
This our second time staying at this property and we will definitely be back. Wayne is very responsive to any question you have. The property is well kept and clean. Nice for a weekend getaway with the family by the lake.
Love the location and dock! Kids enjoyed yard games, watching birds, picnic and playing on dock; perfect for their first time experience in kayaks. The cabin was comfortable; the master suite awesome. We needed the extra bathroom/shower downstairs as we prepared to participate in family wedding. Hope to stay there again when visiting.
