Wow!

Pictures don't do this place justice. Very well appointed, great location, comfortable. Easy check in and quick responses from the host. Everything was perfect!
Our dog Baloo, he looks huge here but he isn't that big, loved having zoomies on the lawn and swimming in the lake.

Excellent Family Time at Lakeside Cottage

My family (myself, wife, and two kids) stayed at Lakeside Cottage during Spring break. The cottage is very nice inside and outside. Inside, the cabin is very clean and well decorated. Everyone was pleased with how comfortable the beds were. The outside deck space is expansive and well done. We played table tennis, sat in the hot tub, and used the grill to make burgers. We also kayaked and fished. The communication from the owner was exceptional throughout. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to coming back.

Our stay at Lewis Lakeside

This was our 3rd time staying at the Lewis Lakeside cabin. Every time we stay it gets better. My kids love the paddle boat and outdoor games. I love that the cabin has such a nice outdoor space especially since I have young children. There is plenty of space for them to run around and play. The views are amazing and they never get old. We hope to come back in the near future and continue our tradition:)

Great views

The view of the lake was beautiful. The cabin is adorable and comfortable. The showers were really nice and body wash and shampoo was supplied. We caught so many bass out of the lake. The bass were small but it was still fun.The slope from the cabin to the lake was minimal which was good for my 82 year old mom. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Nice cabin on a small lake

We had a quiet and relaxing weekend. The kitchen has all the gadgets you need. The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of enjoyable activities to do. The only thing we didn't like was all the spider webs and how small the lake was. Overall still had a great time.

The cabin was fantastic - clean, fully stocked, comfortable beds and close to both Ellijay and Blue Ridge. The screened in back porch and outdoor kitchen were our favorite places to sit and enjoy the serenity of the lake plus the lake is so close to enjoy. The area under the house was a great place to retreat to and read. We were so impressed that we have booked another week in spring of 2026! Communication with the owner was very prompt and the online pictures were exactly as we found the cabin. You will not be disappointed!

We enjoyed our stay so much! Beautiful area, cabin is everything you could ask for, the lake is gorgeous, & close to Ellijay, Blue Ridge & several hiking trails.

We enjoyed our stay here. The property has many out door spaces that are covered . It rained alot the weekend we stayed but were still able enjoy the amenities. The beds are very comfortable in all the rooms. We did run into a problem when the dishwasher broke but that was a minor issue for us. Things happen sometimes. I would recommend this property. It is a great getaway if you are looking to fish, relax and explore the great town of elijay and Blueridge Ga. The out door cooking space was a great plus .

Weekend with family

This cabin is stunning! It’s a quiet neighborhood. The lake views and easy access was great! The big lawn area was heaven for our dogs! Throwing a tennis ball for fetch! The outdoor games, corn hole, pingpong, volleyball on the lawn. This place had something for everyone! So relaxing and fun! The outdoor grill and big outside dining table was perfect! There are a lot of stairs to get down to the lawn and fire pit. But hey we got our steps in! We loved our stay!The only thing that could have made it better would have been more days together!

Wonderful cabin for families

My husband and I brought our three kids ages 7-10 to Ellijay, and we stayed 4 nights at Lewis Lake Cabin. I’m particular about cleanliness, and I was very impressed by how clean the cabin was. It made me feel really comfortable. The cabin had great outdoor space with a tv, ping pong table, and several seating options under a covered deck. Close to Blue Ridge and Ellijay. We will be back!
