The Perfect Getaway

We were more than pleased with our stay at the Bunkhouse on Burton! The house was absolutely perfect, and we really enjoyed how private the home was. We have been coming to Lake Burton for years, and this has been our best rental yet! Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Big smiles at Bunkhouse!

We absolutely loved our trip to Bunkhouse at Burton!!! The house is spacious, beautifully decorated and has everything you need (plenty of blankets, towels, cookware, games) and more! The game room was a huge hit with the kids (and adults) and the screened in porch was a lovely place to relax and enjoy the magnificent lake view! We loved the fire pit and the amazing outdoor scenery as well. It’s so easy to get to the lake for boating and/or fishing (we did both!)! Amazing trip and we can’t wait to come back to the Bunkhouse at Burton very soon!

Bunkhouse at Burton Blew us away!

Our stay at the bunkhouse at Burton exceeded our expectations. The home is newly renovated, with such an imaginative touch of whimsy.. Our host thought of everything; from the crisp, clean sheets, to the neatly folded towels, to the well-stocked kitchen, no detail was overlooked. The bunk room is darling with such comfy beds . Our favorite part about staying at the Bunkhouse was the porch. It was like stepping back in time. It truly is akin to a southern sleeping porch. Blankets and pillows abound, it was a perfect spot to curl up and read a book. Amanda(our host) checked in often to ask about how our stay was going. She truly is an attentive host. You won’t regret staying at this charming home. We can’t wait to return.

Beautiful Family Home on Lake Burton

Amanda did a beautiful job updating this Lake House from top to bottom. She has an incredible eye for sophisticated design while maintaining the warm welcoming feel of a family home. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. My teens loved the game room and playing hoops in the driveway. My 6ft 4in Varsity basketball player even fit in the large bottom bunk of the bunk room. My husband and I loved early morning walks around the lake and coffee in the morning on the large screened lanai with lake view. Keep in mind there is no direct access to the lake. If you want to fish/kayak/SUP you have to drive to the marina 5 minutes away. We did rent a pontoon boat at Anchorage marina and spent a great day on the water with the kids. We loved the fish tacos and burgers at LaPrades marina across the lake for lunch. My husband and son also hired a fishing guide at Anchorage Marine one day while my daughter and I checked out Julep Farm and shopped along the charming Main St in Clayton. I would highly recommend dinner rezos for Fortify as it was our favorite meal. We also loved hiking Tallulah Gorge, Toccoa Falls, Angel/Panther Falls and Minnehaha Falls. All were close by and family friendly. Amanda was thoughtful and thorough about communicating with any issues/questions that came up with the house. We highly recommend Bunkhouse at Lake Burton!

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Brandenburg

Host profile image
We are the Brandenburg family, proud owners of Camp Fox Trot and The Bunkhouse at Burton in Clayton, Georgia.

As a family of five, we have spent years exploring and enjoying the beauty of Rabun County. We were drawn to the area by its pristine lakes, scenic ridge lines, and the quiet rhythm of mountain life. Over time, it became more than a destination—it became a place where our family gathers, unwinds, and creates lasting memories.

From watching morning fog roll across the mountains to sharing stories around the firepit and wandering these peaceful acres, this area holds a special place in our hearts. We hope your time here is just as meaningful and memorable as ours has been.

Why they chose this property

It is the perfect blend of privacy, charm, and thoughtful design. Set on 6 private acres, the home offers a peaceful mountain setting while still being close to the lake and local attractions.

The layout is ideal for families and groups, with bunk beds for the kids, a dedicated game room for fun-filled afternoons, and inviting gathering spaces both indoors and out. Evenings around the firepit, mornings on the porch, and the sense of seclusion throughout the property make it feel like your own private retreat.

Spacious yet comfortable, lively yet serene—this home offers the ideal size and setting for making lasting lake and mountain memories.

What makes this property unique

Lake view, game room, 6 acres to yourself! Walk to Anchorage Marina. Just a short drive to Waterfall Club and 15 minutes to downtown Clayton, GA !
