Our stay was great in everyway. The house backs right up to the lake, access to kayaks paddle boards and everything you need to have a good time on the lake. The host responded to messages almost immediately and the kitchen is well equipped for cooking for the whole family. We had no issues and had a wonderful relaxing time.

We really enjoyed our time at this property. It was nestled away a alcove of the lake so it was not busy with boats and jet skis. It was relaxing and peaceful. It was a quite area. And there was so much to do on property for everyone. From kayaking ( which they provide), games, fishing, a bonfire etc. The host was grest at communicated and the house was very clean. We hope to stat there again.

Everything was absolutely perfect! The owner thought of everything we would need for our stay. Lake view was beautiful and our family enjoyed the fire pit and back porch area. Location was close to Helen, Toccoa Falls and Lake Hartwell Wildlife Park for some quick road trips. We will be back!
Beautiful sunset view from porch.

The location leaves much to do with less than an hour drive. The beds are listed as queen but are more likely full. They were comfortable but smaller than usual.

Quiet Escape

Our quiet escape to the cabin on the lake was just what the family needed. The owners have all their bases covered to ensure that holiday makers have everything they could possibly need to make their stay comfortable! Our stay was most enjoyable.

Cottage on Hartwell Lake

The cottage was completely stocked with everything anyone could ask for when staying next to a lake. The decor gave you the vacation vibe, the beds were comfortable and the screened in porch was relaxing to read in and just enjoy the view. Melinda was very accomodating to our needs.
