Comfortable cabin with a very nice location.

The house is relatively small but very comfortable and well appointed. There were six of use but we never felt crowded (we used a couple of camp chairs that we brought with us). The short walk down to the dock though relatively steep wasn't bad. Spent most of our time on the dock doing a little fishing. Though other houses are nearby we found the location very quite and peaceful. Great place and we will be back :)

Relaxing weekned on the lake

We spent 3 nights at the cabin. It was very relaxing with a nice hike down to the lake. We are over 50 and had no trouble getting to the dock and back. Check in was easy and the cabin was like a home away from home. Would recommend to anyone looking for a cabin to stay at on this lake. Bonus that we could bring our dog. Thank you.

Great getaway

We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. It really felt like you were in a treehouse overlooking the lake. The area was very quiet and we had a group of deer that would visit every afternoon. It was perfect for my husband and I to get away from it all. The host was great and responsive to any questions and the cabin had everything we needed and more.

5 day stay with two 12 year old daughters and best friend Onyx our lab. Deep water dock with slip that held our wave runner easy tie up for kayak and tubes. Beautiful section of lake where Chestatee river enters top of lake. As described for a fair price and super easy dealing with owner.

Perfect Family Time

This is an excellent location if you are looking for fun family time. The cottage is a perfect cozy feeling - high ceilings, big windows, and the wood decor. There is a bit of a slope to the lake - so pack a cooler, but the dock is perfect for fishing and swimming. We had floats and spent so much time in the water. The cabin has almost anything you need. The daily visits from the deer were such a treat. We would 100% stay here again.

Wonderful Cottage right on the Beautiful Lake Lanier

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is in such a great location. North end of the lake which is not as touristy/party centric as the south end. There is a great boat launch at Little Hall Park right nearby and the dock is solid and in excellent shape. The hill down to the cottage and to the lake is substantial so be prepared to do get a leg workout! We lacked for nothing and our host, Jeremiah, was fantastic. He was very responsive and easy to work with! Enjoy your stay! We did!

Christmas cabin

Located right on the lake, the cabin was perfect for 2 adults and one big dog. More than 2 people would still be comfortable. We did not get to use the kayaks or fishing poles because it rained the bulk of the time… really hard!! It is a steep hill to the water so some people may have trouble getting to the dock. Jeremiah had a Christmas tree set up so that kept us in the holiday spirit! And he made sure we had a roasting pan for our turkey. We would stay there again.

Remarkable stay at the lake

We absolutely loved our stay at the lake. The property is nestled in the woods and you feel like you are alone. Wildlife is abundant, sunrises are remarkable and the cabin has large windows and a deck for full views. The cabin is well stocked and perfect for a lake getaway without the constant drum of activity on the south end of the lake. For those with limited mobility, access to the cabin and lake may be challenged by the length and steepness to both. But even though we are older and one of us has a bum knee, we were able to access both by going slow. I would highly recommend this venue to those that love this type of environment. And Jeremiah is an excellent host! 5 stars!

Rustic Cabin

We enjoyed our stay, but the steps going down to dock were very steep. The parking at top and stairs going down to cabin was a trek. There was no beach/property to water as it was lower than grad of property and no stairs. I don't know how you could launch the kayaks or bring them back up the steep incline. I don't know if the lake water table is extremely low this time of year but the only way in the lake is off the dock. It was a pleasant place at top of mountain with trees surrounding the property.

Not bad but....So you know...

It was decent. No bells and whistles but decent. The trail going to the lake is kinda steep and theirs no railing. At the dock their is little railing and a basic dock, not much seating. The bathroom is very small. The kitchen is decent but small and the pots and pans are good. Bring your own seasonings and foil. The towels and rags are pretty worn in. I'd suggest bringing your own. The parking lot is tight. We had 3 cars and have no idea where a 4th would have went. Also, be prepared to load in with a nice little walk to the cabin from the lot. So, heavier items like coolers and luggage will be a little challenging. AND you have to go down steps, then up steps to enter the cabin. The beds are a real highlight! The mattresses and pillows are amazing! We rested very well. There aren't any lights over the stove, so they put click lights that didn't work. The bunk beds are super small moreso for children and the top bunk is little too low in my opinion. But, otherwise it was decent and clean. But very small and compact. It kinda feels like a treehouse. It's an order cabin, and it felt pretty safe in the area. The host is pretty responsive too.
